research Regeneration, Wound Healing, and Cancer
The document concludes that while some organisms can regenerate body parts, mammals generally cannot, and cancer progression is complex, involving mutations rather than a strict stem cell hierarchy.
research Global Landscapes of Human Phenotypic Variation in Inherited Traits
Different human traits like skin color and hair type vary between populations due to genetic adaptations to the environment.
research Contributions of Experimental Animal Research to Dermatology
Animal research has greatly advanced dermatology.
research Mannan Oligosaccharides Improve the Fur Quality of Raccoon Dogs by Regulating the Gut Microbiota
Mannan oligosaccharides improve raccoon dogs' fur quality and overall health.
research Label-Free Proteomics to Identify Keratins and Keratin-Associated Proteins and Their Effects on the Fleece Traits of Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats
Proteins influence the quality and traits of cashmere goat fleece, affecting hair strength and diameter.
research Seasonal Gene Expression Profile Responsible for Hair Follicle Development in Angora Goats
Seasonal changes affect gene activity linked to hair growth in Angora goats.
research Seasonal Gene Expression Profile Responsible for Hair Follicle Development in Angora Goats
Seasonal changes affect hair growth genes in Angora goats, possibly influencing mohair quality.
research Yin and Yang of Hair Cells: The Role of Activin A and Follistatin in Inner Ear Development
Activin A increases inner ear hair cell development, while follistatin decreases it.
research Calreticulin: Non-Endoplasmic Reticulum Functions in Physiology and Disease
Calreticulin has roles in healing, immune response, and disease beyond its known functions in the endoplasmic reticulum.
research The Current Landscape for Direct-to-Consumer Genetic Testing: Legal, Ethical, and Policy Issues
The document concludes that the fast-growing direct-to-consumer genetic testing market lacks sufficient regulation, posing risks to consumers due to questionable test quality and accuracy.
research Cutaneous Androgen Metabolism: Basic Research And Clinical Perspectives
Creating stronger blockers for skin enzymes might lead to better treatment for conditions like acne and excessive hair growth.
research Roles of Jumonji and Jumonji Family Genes in Chromatin Regulation and Development
Jumonji genes are important for development and their mutations can cause abnormalities, especially in the heart and brain.
research Acne, the Skin Microbiome, and Antibiotic Treatment
Antibiotics can reduce acne but may lead to resistant bacteria, and understanding the skin's bacteria is important for treatment.
research Differential Auxin-Transporting Activities of PIN-Formed Proteins in Arabidopsis Root Hair Cells
Different PIN proteins affect plant root hair growth by changing how auxin is transported.
research An Integrative View of Mammalian Seasonal Neuroendocrinology
The article concludes that better understanding gene regulation related to seasonal changes can offer insights into the mechanisms of seasonal timing in mammals.
research The Blastema and Epimorphic Regeneration in Mammals
Mammals might fail to regenerate not because they lack the right cells, but because of how cells respond to their surroundings, and changing this environment could enhance regeneration.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase as a Novel Therapeutic Target for Schizophrenia and Other Neuropsychiatric Disorders
S5αR inhibitors might help treat schizophrenia and other mental disorders but need more research.
research Non-Edg Family LPA Receptors: The Cutting Edge of LPA Research
New LPA receptors (LPA4, LPA5, LPA6) have diverse roles in the body.
research Endocrine Influences on Hair Growth
Hormones and genetics affect hair growth and patterns, with some changes reversible and others not.
research Recent Advances in the Molecular Mechanisms Determining Tissue Sensitivity to Glucocorticoids: Novel Mutations, Circadian Rhythm, and Ligand-Induced Repression of the Human Glucocorticoid Receptor
New findings explain how genetic changes, body clocks, and certain molecules affect tissue response to stress hormones.
research Androgen Binding Profiles of Two Distinct Nuclear Androgen Receptors in Atlantic Croaker (Micropogonias Undulatus)
Different types of androgens bind differently to two receptors, AR1 and AR2, in Atlantic croaker's brain and ovarian tissues, suggesting these receptors may control different androgen actions in fish.
research Glutamine Metabolism Controls Stem Cell Fate Reversibility and Long-Term Maintenance in the Hair Follicle
Glutamine metabolism affects hair stem cell maintenance and their ability to change back to stem cells.
research The Human Skin Microbiome in Selected Cutaneous Diseases
Changes in skin microbes play a role in some skin diseases and could lead to new treatments.
research A Splice Variant in KRT71 Is Associated with Curly Coat Phenotype of Selkirk Rex Cats
A gene variant in KRT71 causes the curly fur in Selkirk Rex cats.
