Mice without the vitamin D receptor have bone issues and other health problems, suggesting vitamin D is important for preventing various diseases in humans.

Melatonin affects many body functions beyond sleep by interacting with specific receptors in various tissues.

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.

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.

Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.

Removing part of the vitamin D receptor stops vitamin D from working properly.

Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin.

TGF-β is crucial for tissue repair and can cause diseases if not properly regulated.

Creating stronger blockers for skin enzymes might lead to better treatment for conditions like acne and excessive hair growth.

Eph receptors and ephrins may be promising targets for treating diseases, but more understanding is needed for effective and safe therapies.

Melatonin is important for skin health and protection, and can be made by the skin or applied to it.

The ZIP7 gene helps control zinc levels in cells by moving zinc from the Golgi apparatus to the cytoplasm.

Minoxidil boosts growth factor in hair cells, potentially promoting hair growth.

Different types of skin cells have unique genetic markers that affect how likely they are to spread cancer.

Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.

Early diagnosis and individualized treatment improve outcomes for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia.

Targeting the IL-23/IL-17 pathway effectively treats several inflammatory skin diseases.

Prolactin contributes to hair loss by promoting hair follicle shrinkage and cell death.

The human type II 5α-reductase gene, linked to certain male health conditions, has a specific structure and low similarity to other related genes.

The telogen phase of hair growth is active and important for preparing hair follicles for regeneration, not just a resting stage.

Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.

Too much Smad7 can cause serious changes in skin tissues, including problems with hair growth, thymus shrinkage, and eye development issues.

Lampreys have a functional vitamin D receptor that may help detoxify harmful substances.

A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.

A new mutation in the human glucocorticoid receptor reduces its function and causes resistance to glucocorticoids.

Prolactin affects hair growth cycles and can cause early hair follicle regression.

BMP2 and BMP7 have opposite roles in feather formation.

Versican, a protein, is less present in thinning hair follicles and this decrease might contribute to common hair loss in men.

Mouse skin can produce and process serotonin, with variations depending on hair cycle, body location, and mouse strain.

Drosha and Dicer are essential for hair follicle health and preventing DNA damage in skin cells.
