The document concludes that understanding how the skin's immune system and inflammation work is complex and requires more research to improve treatments for skin diseases.
research Molecular Regulation of Melanocyte Senescence
The article concludes that while we understand a lot about how melanocytes age and how this can prevent cancer, there are still unanswered questions about certain pathways and genes involved.
research From Neural Crest Cells to Melanocytes: Cellular Plasticity During Development and Beyond
Melanocyte development from neural crest cells is complex and influenced by many factors, and better understanding could help treat skin disorders.
research Wnt Signaling: The Good and the Bad
Wnt signaling is important for development and cell regulation but can cause diseases like cancer when not working properly.
research Eph/Ephrin Signaling in Epidermal Differentiation and Disease
Eph/ephrin signaling is important for skin cell behavior and could be targeted to treat skin diseases.
research Therapeutic Strategies for Treating Hair Loss
The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.
research Exogen Hair Characterization in Human Scalp
The conclusion is that exogen is a unique hair cycle phase and the new sampling method specifically targets this stage, which may help in future hair loss research.
research Ancient Genomes Reveal the Evolutionary History and Origin of Cashmere-Producing Goats in China
Ancient Chinese goats evolved cashmere-producing traits due to selective breeding, particularly in genes affecting hair growth.
research The Role of R-Spondins and Their Receptors in Bone Metabolism
R-spondins and their receptors help increase bone growth and may be used to treat bone loss diseases.
research The Genetics of Human Skin Disease
Genetic research has advanced our understanding of skin diseases, but complex conditions require an integrative approach for deeper insight.
research Consequences of Steroid-5α-Reductase Deficiency and Inhibition in Vertebrates
Lack or blocking of SRD5a, a key component in hormone creation, can lead to conditions like pseudohermaphrodism and affect hair growth, bone mass, muscle strength, and reproductive health. More research is needed on its regulation from fertilization to adulthood.
research Atrichia With Papular Lesions Resulting From a Novel Insertion Mutation in the Human Hairless Gene
Researchers found a new mutation causing total hair loss from birth.

research Bald Thigh Syndrome in Sighthounds: Revisiting the Cause of a Well-Known Disease
Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds is caused by structural defects in hair shafts due to downregulated genes and proteins.
research Abstracts
The document reports findings on genetic research, including ethical concerns about genome editing, improved diagnosis of mitochondrial mutations, solving inherited eye diseases, confirming gene roles in epilepsy, linking a gene to aneurysms, and identifying genes associated with age-related macular degeneration.
research An Epistatic Effect of KRT25 on SP6 Is Involved in Curly Coat in Horses
The genes KRT25 and SP6 affect curly hair in horses, with KRT25 also causing hair loss. If both genes are mutated, the horse gets curly hair and hair loss. KRT25 can hide the effect of SP6.
