Disrupting Stat3 in hair follicle stem cells greatly reduces skin tumor formation.
research Kin-Cohort Analysis of LRRK2-G2019S Penetrance in Parkinson's Disease
The LRRK2-G2019S mutation in Parkinson's disease has a lifetime penetrance of 25-35%, and finasteride may help reduce symptoms in adult male Tourette syndrome patients.
research A Preliminary Study of Finasteride in Tourette Syndrome
Finasteride reduces Tourette syndrome symptoms, but results may be limited due to potential biases.
research Pemphigus Foliaceus in 91 Dogs
Both treatments for pemphigus foliaceus in dogs are effective, but combination therapy has more side effects.
research Skin Diseases Associated With Atopic Dermatitis
People with atopic dermatitis are more likely to develop other skin conditions due to shared genetics and immune pathways.
research Genetics and Other Factors in the Etiology of Female Pattern Hair Loss
Female pattern hair loss has unclear causes, possibly involving genetics, hormones, and environment, and needs better treatments.
research The CLE40 and CRN/CLV2 Signaling Pathways Antagonistically Control Root Meristem Growth in Arabidopsis
CLE40 and CRN/CLV2 pathways have opposite effects on root growth in Arabidopsis.
research Environmental Stress But Not Subjective Distress in Children or Adolescents With Alopecia Areata
Kids with alopecia areata may experience more stress but not necessarily feel more anxious or depressed than others.
research Induction of Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cell Properties in Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Multipotent LNGFR(+)THY-1(+) Mesenchymal Cells
Researchers found a way to create cells from stem cells that act like human cells important for hair growth and could be used for hair regeneration treatments.
research Identification of the Ovine Keratin-Associated Protein 22-1 (KAP22-1) Gene and Its Effect on Wool Traits
The gene KAP22-1 affects wool yield and fiber shape in sheep.
research Transient Mitochondrial DNA Double Strand Breaks in Mice Cause Accelerated Aging Phenotypes in a ROS-Dependent but p53/p21-Independent Manner
Damaging mitochondrial DNA in mice speeds up aging due to increased reactive oxygen species, not through the p53/p21 pathway.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New steroidal compounds could be effective for treating conditions related to 5α-reductase enzyme activity.
research Regulation of Melanocyte Stem Cells in the Pigmentation of Skin and Its Appendages: Biological Patterning and Therapeutic Potentials
Understanding how melanocyte stem cells work could lead to new treatments for hair graying and skin pigmentation disorders.
research Dermatologic Features of Classic Movie Villains
Most classic movie villains have skin conditions, unlike the heroes, which may cause bias against real people with similar conditions.
research A Detective Look at Hair Biopsies from African-American Patients
Recognizing specific features of African-American hair can help diagnose hair loss conditions.
research SLE and Serum Complement: Causative, Concomitant or Coincidental?
Low serum complement levels in SLE patients don't always match with disease flares; monitoring C3 and C4 is useful, but cell-bound complement products might better indicate disease activity.
research Hair Follicle Regeneration in Skin Grafts: Current Concepts and Future Perspectives
Hair follicle regeneration in skin grafts may be possible using stem cells and tissue engineering.
research Desferrioxamine Treatment of Aceruloplasminemia: Long-Term Follow-Up
Finasteride may help reduce symptoms in male Tourette syndrome patients.

GLI2 increases follistatin production in human skin cells.
research Age-Related Hair Changes in Men: Mechanisms and Management of Alopecia and Graying
Men's hair loss is caused by hormones and genes, and can be treated with medication and surgery, while graying is due to aging and has no prevention except dyeing.
research De Novo Single-Nucleotide and Copy Number Variation in Discordant Monozygotic Twins Reveals Disease-Related Genes
The research found genetic differences in identical twins that could explain why one twin has a disease while the other does not.
research How Much Health Insurance Is Enough? Revisiting the Concept of Underinsurance
The document concludes that there is no clear definition of adequate health insurance, and a consistent method to measure underinsurance is needed.
research Basics of Androgen Synthesis and Action
Androgens like testosterone are important hormones for both men and women, made differently in each sex and affecting the body by regulating genes and quick interactions with cell components.
