research K15 And Id3 Expression In Intact And Regenerating Adult Vibrissae Rodent Hair Follicles
K15 and Id3 are important in hair follicle regeneration, with K15 increasing in early stages and Id3 responding later.
research Epidermal Abnormalities and Increased Malignancy of Skin Tumors in Human Epidermal Keratin 8-Expressing Transgenic Mice
Mice with human skin protein K8 had more skin problems and cancer.
research Biochemical and Structural Characteristics, Gene Regulation, Physiological, Pathological and Clinical Features of Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase as a Multifunctional Lipocalin
Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L-PGDS) is a protein that plays many roles in the body, including sleep regulation, pain management, food intake, and protection against harmful substances. It also affects fat metabolism, glucose intolerance, cell maturation, and is involved in various diseases like diabetes, cancer, and arthritis. It can influence sex organ development and embryonic cell differentiation, and its levels can be used as a diagnostic marker for certain conditions.
research Hairless: A Nuclear Receptor Corepressor Essential for Skin Function
The Hairless gene is crucial for healthy skin and hair growth.
