MOF controls key genes for skin development by regulating mitochondrial and ciliary functions.
research The Postnatal Offspring of Finasteride-Treated Male Rats Shows Hyperglycemia, Elevated Hepatic Glycogen Storage, and Altered GLUT2, IR, and AR Expression in the Liver
Finasteride-treated male rats' offspring had altered glucose metabolism, potentially increasing diabetes risk.
research Editor's Choice: November 2017 British Journal of Dermatology Highlights
Organ transplant recipients have a higher risk of skin cancer over time, atopic dermatitis skin shows unusual bacterial and fungal patterns, a new tool for measuring hidradenitis suppurativa severity was created, and gene expression changes in male baldness suggest new treatments.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

Certain genetic variations in the FST gene are linked to better wool quality in Chinese Merino sheep.
research Epigenetic Control of Skin and Hair Regeneration After Wounding
Skin and hair can regenerate after injury due to changes in gene activity, with potential links to how cancer spreads. Future research should focus on how new hair follicles form and the processes that trigger their creation.
research Identification of Potential Biomarkers for Diagnosis of Patients with Methamphetamine Use Disorder
Gene expression in hair follicles can help diagnose methamphetamine use disorder.
research ATP-Dependent Chromatin Remodeling During Mammalian Development
