Claudin-1 is important for the barrier function and growth of hair.
research Secretory Phospholipase A2-IIA Overexpressing Mice Exhibit Cyclic Alopecia Mediated Through Aberrant Hair Shaft Differentiation and Impaired Wound Healing Response
Mice with too much sPLA₂-IIA have hair loss and poor wound healing due to abnormal hair growth and stem cell depletion.
research Role of S-Palmitoylation by ZDHHC13 in Mitochondrial Function and Metabolism in Liver
ZDHHC13 is important for normal liver function and metabolism, affecting mitochondrial activity.
research Analysis of the FGF Gene Family Provides Insights into Aquatic Adaptation in Cetaceans
Whale genes show changes that help them live in water, like less hair and better flippers.
research Keep Quiet—How Stress Regulates Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Stress hormone corticosterone suppresses hair growth by affecting stem cell activity and Gas6 protein expression.
research Abstracts From The 55th European Society Of Human Genetics Conference: E-Posters
Rare ULBP3 gene changes may raise the risk of Alopecia areata, a certain FAS gene deletion could cause a dysfunctional protein in an immune disorder, and having one copy of a specific genetic deletion is okay, but two copies cause sickle cell disease.
research Planar Cell Polarity Effector Gene Intu Regulates Cell Fate-Specific Differentiation of Keratinocytes Through the Primary Cilia
Intu gene is crucial for hair follicle formation by helping keratinocytes differentiate through primary cilia.
research Genetic Prediction of Male Pattern Baldness Based on Large Independent Datasets
New models predict male pattern baldness better than old ones but still need improvement.
research Recent Advances in Single-Cell Engineered Live Biotherapeutic Products Research for Skin Repair and Disease Treatment
Single-cell engineered biotherapeutics show promise for skin treatment but need more research and trials.
research The Role of Dexamethasone in Mediating the Contradictory Effects of Wnt Antagonists SFRP2 and SFRP3 on Human Hair Follicle Growth
