60-76 / 76 results research Transcriptome Profiling and Differential Gene Expression in Canine Microdissected Anagen and Telogen Hair Follicles and Interfollicular Epidermis
Different genes are active in dogs' hair growth and skin, similar to humans, which helps understand dog skin and hair diseases and can relate to human conditions.
research Histological and Gene Expression Analysis of the Effects of Menopause Status and Hormone Therapy on the Vaginal Introitus and Labia Majora
Menopause causes significant changes in the vaginal introitus, but less so in the labia majora, which may lead to symptoms of vaginal atrophy.
research The Role of Hormones in Hidradenitis Suppurativa: A Systematic Review
Hormone imbalance is linked to Hidradenitis Suppurativa, a skin condition, and treatments like anti-androgenic therapy and metformin can help. It's also suggested to check patients for insulin resistance and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
research Novel Mutations of the ABCA12, KRT1 and ST14 Genes in Three Unrelated Newborns Showing Congenital Ichthyosis
New genetic mutations linked to rare skin disorders were found in three newborns.
research A Kaleidoscope of Keratin Gene Expression and the Mosaic of Its Regulatory Mechanisms
Keratin protein production in cells is controlled by a complex system that changes with cell type, health, and conditions like injury or cancer.
research Research Techniques Made Simple: Zebrafish Models for Human Dermatologic Disease
Zebrafish are useful for studying and developing treatments for human skin diseases.
research Presence of Uterine Leiomyomas Has No Significant Impact on Gene Expression Profile in the Scalp of Patients with Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia
Uterine leiomyomas don't significantly change gene expression in the scalp of people with Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia.
research Neuropsychiatric Lupus: Two Sides of the Same Coin
A thorough, team-based approach and clear communication improve outcomes in complex neuropsychiatric lupus cases.
research Whole-Genome Resequencing Reveals Selection Signal Related to Sheep Wool Fineness
Genes linked to wool fineness in sheep have been identified.
research Bioengineered Skin Organoids: From Development to Applications
Scientists have improved 3D models of human skin for research and medical uses, but still face challenges in perfectly replicating real skin.
research Mechanical Force Drives the Initial Mesenchymal-Epithelial Interaction During Skin Organoid Development
Mechanical force is important for the first contact between skin cells and hair growth in mini-organs.
research Forensic DNA Phenotyping
Forensic DNA Phenotyping accurately predicts physical traits and is used in investigations, but needs more diverse population data for confirmation.
research IPSC-Based Approach for Human Hair Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that using stem cells to regenerate hair follicles could be a promising treatment for hair loss, but there are still challenges to overcome before it can be used clinically.
research Fate of Prominin-1 Expressing Dermal Papilla Cells During Homeostasis, Wound Healing, and Wnt Activation
Prominin-1 expressing cells in the dermal papilla help regulate hair follicle size and communication but don't aid in skin repair.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cells: Walking the Maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
