June 2011 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study observed that mice with a Cx43 mutation exhibited slower and asynchronous hair regrowth with severe cuticle weathering, mimicking aspects of hair phenotype in some ODDD patients.
1 citations
,
February 2025 in “Journal of Anatomy” This study observed that during the postnatal development of gray short-tailed opossums, skin transitions from facilitating gas exchange through a dense capillary network at birth to supporting thermoregulation, with significant changes in skin thickness and structure occurring by 35 days old.
October 2020 in “Open Repository of the University of Porto (University of Porto)” 6 citations
,
October 2022 in “Frontiers in Physiology” This review discusses the roles of store-operated Ca 2+ entry proteins in skin cell function and their links to various skin diseases, but it reports no new results.
28 citations
,
September 2002 in “The Journal of Comparative Neurology” This study found that presynaptic inhibition of Aαβ cutaneous primary afferents in cats is mostly mediated by GABAergic interneurons that also contain glycine.
1 citations
,
January 2010 This study found that ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) may play a significant role in regulating human hair growth and hair cycle changes, as inhibiting ODC reduced follicular keratinocyte proliferation and human hair growth.
June 2015 in “Reactions weekly” December 2012 in “Reactions weekly”
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that KROX20 is crucial for hair follicle development and epidermal homeostasis, as its deletion in skin epithelial cells led to hair loss and increased epidermal thickness.
The document concludes that scientists created various steroids with different properties, including a more effective semi-synthetic vitamin D.
27 citations
,
September 2018 in “Medicines” This study reported that oleic acid-based nanovesicles improve follicular delivery and reduce side effects of minoxidil compared to traditional MXD lotions.
24 citations
,
November 2015 in “Frontiers in Genetics” This review discusses the development and potential therapeutic effects of nitroxide small molecule agents for age-related macular degeneration and cardiovascular disease, but reports no new clinical results.
September 2024 in “Pigment Cell & Melanoma Research” This study found that mitochondrial fusion regulator Opa1 is crucial for maintaining melanocyte stem cells during the hair follicle cycle in mice, with Opa1 deficiency leading to impaired SCF-KIT signaling, reduced melanocyte populations, and early hair graying.
26 citations
,
June 2016 in “Journal of Reproductive Immunology” This study found that in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, xanthine oxidase activity is a useful marker for oxidative stress and is positively correlated with inflammatory markers and cardiovascular disease risk factors.
