research Genetically Modified Laboratory Mice with Sebaceous Glands Abnormalities
Genetic changes in mice help understand skin and hair disorders, aiding treatment development for acne and hair loss.
research RSPO1-Mutated Keratinocytes From Palmoplantar Keratoderma Display Impaired Differentiation and Invasiveness: Implications for Squamous Cell Carcinoma Susceptibility in Patients With 46XX Disorder of Sexual Development
RSPO1 mutations in certain patients lead to skin cells that don't develop properly and are more likely to become invasive, increasing the risk of skin cancer.
research Role of the ABCA4 Gene Expression in the Clearance of Toxic Vitamin A Derivatives in Human Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Keratinocytes
The ABCA4 gene protects hair follicle stem cells from toxic vitamin A byproducts.
research The Phenotypic and Genotypic Spectra of Ichthyosis With Confetti Plus Novel Genetic Variation in the 3′ End of KRT10
Ichthyosis with confetti is a genetic skin disorder with consistent ectodermal malformations and various KRT10 gene mutations.
research Secondary Cicatricial and Other Permanent Alopecias
The document concludes that permanent hair loss conditions are complex, require early specific treatments, and "secondary permanent alopecias" might be a more accurate term than "secondary cicatricial alopecia."
research Collodion Baby Case Series: The Success of Oral Retinoic Acid
Oral retinoic acid effectively treated collodion baby, with hair loss as the main side effect.
research Book Reviews
The book "Baby Skin" provides useful skin care guidance for parents and is well-received despite lacking visual aids.
research Secondary Cicatricial and Other Permanent Alopecias
The document says that treating the root cause of hair follicle damage is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss, and treatment options vary.
research The Skin at Different Ages
Skin changes throughout life, from development before birth to aging effects like wrinkles, influenced by both genetics and environment.
research Mutant Laboratory Mice With Abnormalities in Hair Follicle Morphogenesis, Cycling, and Structure: An Update
The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.
research Structure and Development of the Skin and Cutaneous Appendages
Understanding skin structure and development helps diagnose and treat skin disorders.
research Diagnosis of Common, Benign Neonatal Dermatoses
The article helps identify common, non-harmful skin conditions in newborns to avoid undue concern and treatment.
research Semidominant Inheritance in Epidermolytic Ichthyosis
Epidermolytic ichthyosis can be inherited in a semidominant way with mild symptoms in carriers.
research Alopecia in Harlequin Mutant Mice Is Associated with Reduced AIF Protein Levels and Expression of Retroviral Elements
Harlequin mutant mice have hair loss due to low AIF protein levels and retroviral element activity.
research Unilateral Straight Hair: A Symptom of Acquired Horner's Syndrome in a Neonate
A baby girl's hair turned straight on one side due to a neck tumor and surgery, but it returned to curly as she recovered.
research Smoking and the Skin: Effects and Therapeutic Potential
Smoking harms the skin, causing early aging and increasing cancer risk, but stopping smoking can improve skin health.
research Ptosis in Childhood: Causes, Clinical Presentations, and Management
Childhood ptosis can vary from a minor cosmetic issue to a serious condition and may signal other health problems.
research Xenobiotics In Vitro: The Influence of L-Cystine, Pantothenate, and Miliacin on Metabolic and Proliferative Capacity of Keratinocytes
L-cystine, D-pantothenat, and miliacin together significantly boost keratinocyte growth and metabolism.
research Autophagy Dysfunction: The Kernel of Hair Loss?
Manipulating cell cleanup processes could help treat hair loss.
research Evaluation of DNA Variants Associated with Androgenetic Alopecia and Their Potential to Predict Male Pattern Baldness
DNA variants can predict male pattern baldness, with higher risk scores increasing baldness likelihood.
research Evaluation of the Predictive Capacity of DNA Variants Associated with Straight Hair in Europeans
Certain DNA variants can predict straight hair in Europeans but are not highly specific.
research Characterization of X-Linked SNP Genotypic Variation in Globally Distributed Human Populations
The research concluded that selection significantly shaped the genetic variation of the X chromosome, with certain regions affected by past selective events.
