research Biochemical and Structural Characteristics, Gene Regulation, Physiological, Pathological and Clinical Features of Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase as a Multifunctional Lipocalin
Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L-PGDS) is a protein that plays many roles in the body, including sleep regulation, pain management, food intake, and protection against harmful substances. It also affects fat metabolism, glucose intolerance, cell maturation, and is involved in various diseases like diabetes, cancer, and arthritis. It can influence sex organ development and embryonic cell differentiation, and its levels can be used as a diagnostic marker for certain conditions.
research Cutaneous Transcriptome Analysis in NIH Hairless Mice
Key genes linked to hair growth and cancer were identified in hairless mice.
research Developing Human Fetal Skin Demonstrates a Unique Lymphocyte Signature
Fetal skin has unique immune cells different from adult skin.
research The Historical Studies Underpinning the Concept of Hair Follicle Neogenesis
Fibroblast growth factors are crucial for hair follicle development and regeneration.
research Preparing the Hair Follicle Canal for Hair Shaft Emergence
A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.
research Epithelial Cells Supply Sonic Hedgehog to the Perinatal Dentate Gyrus via Transport by Platelets

research Tregs: Where We Are and What Comes Next?
The conclusion is that Treg-targeted therapies have potential, but more knowledge of Treg biology is needed for effective treatments, including for cancer.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
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 Tumor Promotion in Skin: Are Active Oxygen Species Involved?
Active oxygen species might be involved in skin tumor growth, but their exact role is unclear.
research Mucosal TLR5 Activation Controls Healthspan and Longevity
