research Comment on Scalp Neuropathy in Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in men (androgenetic alopecia) is significantly linked to decreased scalp sensitivity, but not temperature sensitivity. More research is needed to confirm this. Comparing this hair loss to leprosy is unsupported and stigmatizing.
research Solitary, Subcutaneous, Fixed, Firm, and Fast-Growing Nodule
A man had a non-cancerous, fast-growing skin lump on his arm that was removed with surgery.
research Patched1 Functions as a Gatekeeper by Promoting Cell Cycle Progression
Patched1 helps prevent tumors by controlling cell growth.
research The Structure and Organization of Lanceolate Mechanosensory Complexes at Mouse Hair Follicles
Lanceolate complexes in mouse hair follicles are essential for touch and depend on specific cells for maintenance and regeneration.
research Synaptic-Like Vesicles and Candidate Transduction Channels in Mechanosensory Terminals
SLVs help maintain muscle stretch sensitivity and could aid in treating hypertension and muscle spasticity.
