Tumor suppressors help control inflammation in cancer and restoring their function could lead to new treatments.
research Skin Diseases Associated With Atopic Dermatitis
People with atopic dermatitis are more likely to develop other skin conditions due to shared genetics and immune pathways.
research Plasticity of Differentiated Cells in Wound Repair and Tumorigenesis, Part II: Skin and Intestine
Mature cells can re-enter the cell cycle and potentially lead to cancer.
research Studying the Genetic Predisposing Factors in the Pathogenesis of Acne Vulgaris
Genetics play a role in acne, but how exactly they contribute is not fully understood.
research Disruption of the Temporally Regulated Cloaca Endodermal β-Catenin Signaling Causes Anorectal Malformations
Disrupting β-catenin signaling in certain cells causes anorectal malformations.
research Mouse Models for the Study of Human Hair Loss
Mice are useful for researching human hair loss and testing treatments, despite some differences between species.

Tissue-specific variation in mutant load complicates genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis.
research Gene Delivery to the Hair Follicle
Gene therapy shows promise for treating hair loss by targeting hair follicles.
research Prognosis and Management of Congenital Hair Shaft Disorders with Fragility—Part I
Some congenital hair disorders improve in childhood or with treatments like minoxidil and retinoids, while others like Netherton syndrome and trichothiodystrophy have a poor prognosis.
research Human FOXN1 Deficiency Is Associated with Alpha Beta Double-Negative and FoxP3 Positive T-Cell Expansions That Are Distinctly Modulated upon Thymic Transplantation
Thymic transplantation normalized some T-cells but not others, maintaining immune function.
research Hair and Nail Adverse Events During Treatment with Targeted Therapies for Metastatic Melanoma
Targeted therapies for advanced skin cancer often cause hair and nail problems, which need managing to avoid changing the treatment dose.

People who carry the 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency gene are not more likely to have excessive male hormone levels.
research Milestones in Photocarcinogenesis
UV radiation causes skin cancer, but sunscreens and certain drugs can help prevent it.
research Unveiling the Roots of Monogenic Genodermatoses: Genotrichoses as a Paradigm
New gene identification techniques have improved the understanding and classification of inherited hair disorders.
research A Humanized Mouse Model of Hereditary 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D–Resistant Rickets Without Alopecia
Researchers created a mouse model of a type of rickets that does not cause hair loss.
research Testosterone Levels in Relation to Oral Contraceptive Use and the Androgen Receptor CAG and GGC Length Polymorphisms in Healthy Young Women
Oral contraceptives lower testosterone levels in women, especially those with certain genetic traits, and may be linked to increased breast cancer risk.
research Regulation of Receptor Binding Specificity of FGF9 by an Autoinhibitory Homodimerization
FGF9 controls which receptors it binds to through a process where two FGF9 molecules join, and changes in FGF9 can lead to incorrect receptor activation.
research The Genetics of Human Skin Disease
