The vitamin D receptor has many roles in the body beyond managing calcium, affecting the immune system, hair growth, muscles, fat, bone marrow, and cancer cells.
research Hair Melanocytes as Neuro-Endocrine Sensors—Pigments for Our Imagination
Hair melanocytes help the skin respond to stress and regulate hair pigmentation.
research Mutations in SREBF1, Encoding Sterol Regulatory Element Binding Transcription Factor 1, Cause Autosomal-Dominant IFAP Syndrome
Changes in the SREBF1 gene cause a rare genetic skin and hair disorder.
research Distinct Developmental Functions of Prostasin (CAP1/PRSS8) Zymogen and Activated Prostasin
Prostasin has two roles in skin: one for normal skin development without needing activation, and another for proper hair growth that requires activation.
research Impaired Metabolic Effects of Metformin in Men with Early-Onset Androgenic Alopecia
Metformin is less effective in men with early-onset hair loss.
research Tuning Wnt Signals for More or Fewer Hairs
Changing Wnt signaling can lead to more or less hair growth and might help treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research The Biology of Melanocytes
Melanocytes are cells that make skin and hair color and help protect skin from sun damage.
research Pituitary Effects of Metformin in Men With Early-Onset Androgenic Alopecia
Metformin reduces certain hormone levels in men with early-onset hair loss.
research The Potential of Regulatory T Cell-Based Therapies for Alopecia Areata
Treg cell-based therapies might help treat hair loss from alopecia areata, but more research is needed to confirm safety and effectiveness.
research Design of an In Vitro Skin 3D Model Mimicking a Disruption of the Barrier Function

research Cutaneous Features of Myotonic Dystrophy Types 1 and 2: Implications of Premature Aging and Vitamin D Homeostasis
Patients with myotonic dystrophy often have skin problems that suggest early aging and vitamin D issues, and the severity of these problems is linked to their genetic condition and vitamin D levels.
research Vitamin A Resolves Lineage Plasticity to Orchestrate Stem Cell Lineage Choices
Vitamin A helps skin stem cells decide their function, aiding in hair growth and wound repair.
research Deletion of Hypoxia-Inducible Factor Prolyl 4-Hydroxylase 2 in FoxD1-Lineage Mesenchymal Cells Leads to Congenital Truncal Alopecia
Removing a specific gene in certain skin cells causes hair loss in mice by disrupting hair follicle development.
research Apoptotic Dysregulation Mediates Stem Cell Competition and Tissue Regeneration
Cells lacking the Bax protein can outcompete others, leading to better tissue repair and hair growth.
research Editors' Picks
Small molecule DMF improves psoriasis and multiple sclerosis, adult skin cells can be made to grow new hair, certain skin cells initiate hair growth, IL-17C controls gut health and can cause skin inflammation, and skin cells produce IL-17 that can lead to psoriasis.
research The Safety of 52 Weeks of Oral DHEA Therapy for Postmenopausal Women
Taking DHEA for a year is generally safe for postmenopausal women but may cause acne and more facial hair without improving metabolism or aging.
research Hidradenitis Suppurativa: A Folliculotropic Disease of Innate Immune Barrier Dysfunction?
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a skin disease caused by the breakdown of the skin's natural immune barriers, especially around hair follicles.
research Research on the Balance of Thiol-Disulfide in Blood Serum in Women with Telogen Effluvium
