In this study, primary cilia were found to contribute to meibomian gland enlargement and lipid production, though they are not necessary for normal gland development.

Food deprivation increases MST enzyme in the brain, possibly affecting energy balance.

This case study reports that a 26-year-old woman with epidermolysis bullosa prurogompsa also presented with unique findings of co-existing muscular dystrophy and immune-based myasthenia gravis, with significant improvement following steroid treatment.

In this study, the researchers reported a new case of Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome with a novel LMNA mutation and successful surgical intervention for airway obstruction.

GNPTAB gene is crucial for normal hair color in humans and mice.

This study found that minoxidil increases the expression of a reporter gene linked to hair growth in cultured hair follicles from transgenic mice, suggesting a potential model for studying hair biology.

In this study, researchers discovered that the MafB gene, which is important for macrophage differentiation, shows high expression in the pancreas and is influenced by sex steroids, with varied expression patterns in hamster tissues and during reproductive phases.

This study found that Sox9, Caveolin1, and Androgen receptor genes are expressed in both skin tissues and musk glands of Chinese forest musk deer, suggesting their importance in these tissues.

This study found that mushroom beta-glucans combined with radiation therapy may help control tumor growth and reduce metastasis in mice with Lewis lung carcinoma.

The document concludes that using gadolinium-based contrast agents during MRI can be linked to Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis in patients with severe kidney disease.

This study found that the transcription factor Meis2 is crucial for the maturation and innervation of sensory neurons responsible for light touch in mice, with its absence leading to reduced touch sensitivity.

This study found that single-crystal magnesium samples smaller than 100 nm exhibited increased plastic deformation due to greater activation of nonbasal planes as local flow stresses approached 2 GPa.

This study developed a mouse model to simulate chronic radiation-induced salivary dysfunction, revealing dose-dependent saliva reduction and glandular changes, which may help advance salivary regenerative therapies.

In this study, a transgenic mouse model suggested that suppressing the expression of the HGPS mutation may reverse disease symptoms, including skin abnormalities, supporting the potential for treatment development.

In this study, Gsdma1/2/3 knockout mice showed reduced epidermal hyperplasia and inflammation when induced by PMA, which was attributed to decreased EGFR-Stat3/Akt signaling due to a decrease in related ligands.

This study found that gray mongooses have more numerous and well-developed sebaceous glands compared to domestic cats, suggesting they may benefit from enhanced lipid-derived skin protection.

The researchers reported that non-motor symptoms like taste disorders and alopecia are associated with myasthenia gravis, particularly in severe cases and those linked to thymoma.

This study found that the Meibomian gland shares structural and cytokeratin composition similarities with hair follicles, and plays a role in hyper-keratinisation observed in obstructive Meibomian gland dysfunction.

This study found that overexpression of Gsdma3 in mice led to epidermal hyperplasia, skin inflammation, and hair growth defects, suggesting gain-of-function mutations in Gsdma3 cause these conditions.

This study reported that in animal studies of androgenetic alopecia, a biodegradable microneedle patch releasing glutamic acid promoted hair regeneration more effectively than daily minoxidil, with higher hair follicle counts and less frequent dosing, showing the potential for clinical application.

This study identified a new gene, mrp4, in mice, which suggests it may have a unique role in the growth and development of hair follicles in the ears and tails.

This study evaluated the effect of guselkumab on moderate to severe plaque psoriasis and found that median PASI improvements increased from around 60% at week 4 to over 90% by week 12 of treatment across multiple clinical trials.

This study discovered that a specific G to C mutation in the ornithine aminotransferase gene is linked to the retarded hair growth phenotype in mice and may serve as a model for human gyrate atrophy.

This study found that mice lacking myelin protein zero-like 3 (Mpzl3) had reduced body weight and adiposity despite increased food intake, which was linked to higher energy expenditure and improved glycemic control.

This study found that the Gsdma3 gene is necessary for normal hair follicle differentiation in mice, with its mutation leading to progressive hair loss and defects in hair structure.

This study suggests that inorganic magnesium silicate sprays can improve burn wound repair and promote regeneration of skin appendages, showing superior results compared to commercial wound healing products in animal models.

This study found that modified laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity reduced ghrelin levels, improved glycemic and insulin levels, and resulted in significant weight loss.

A gene mutation in mice causes increased mast cells and disorganized hair follicles in their skin.

This study found that combining MSM with MAP significantly enhanced hair growth in mice, comparable to or better than minoxidil, due to increased intradermal retention of MAP.

This study found that, in mice, different precursor populations give rise to Merkel cells in hairy versus glabrous skin, but their formation is controlled by a common genetic program involving FGFR2 signaling.
