research Functional Analysis of VDR Gene Mutation R343H in a Child with Vitamin D-Resistant Rickets with Alopecia
The R343H mutation in the VDR gene causes vitamin D-resistant rickets with alopecia by impairing specific gene activity.
research Association Between Human Hair Loss and the Expression Levels of Nucleolin, Nucleophosmin, and UBTF Genes
Hair loss is significantly linked to lower levels of certain genes in hair follicles.
research Editorial Overview: Embroidering the Canvas of Life
The document emphasizes the importance of ongoing research and ethical considerations in genome editing and cellular reprogramming.
research Primary Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance or Chrousos Syndrome: Allostasis Through a Mutated Glucocorticoid Receptor
Chrousos Syndrome is caused by mutations that make the body less sensitive to glucocorticoids, leading to various symptoms and requiring high-dose treatment.
research Epithelial Stem Cells: Turning Over New Leaves
Epithelial stem cells are crucial for tissue renewal and repair, and understanding them could improve treatments for damage and cancer.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Defining the Impact of Beta-Catenin/Tcf Transactivation on Epithelial Stem Cells
β-catenin is essential for stem cell activation and proliferation in hair follicles.
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 Transforming Growth Factor-Beta in Stem Cells and Tissue Homeostasis
TGF-β is crucial for tissue repair and can cause diseases if not properly regulated.
research The Effects of Estrogens on Linear Bone Growth
Oestrogens are key for bone growth during puberty in both boys and girls.
research The Harmonies Played by TGF-β in Stem Cell Biology
TGF-β is crucial for controlling stem cell behavior and changes in its signaling can lead to diseases like cancer.
research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
research MIM and Cortactin Antagonism Regulates Ciliogenesis and Hedgehog Signaling
MIM is crucial for hair follicle formation and regeneration by controlling cilia formation and hedgehog signaling through its interaction with Cortactin and Src.
research Beyond Acne: Current Aspects of Sebaceous Gland Biology and Function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research Melanin Pigmentary Disorders: Treatment Update
Treatments for melanin disorders exist, but more effective options needed.
research Control of Pelage Hair Follicle Development and Cycling by Complex Interactions Between Follistatin and Activin
