This review discusses the roles of the hairless (HR) protein as a corepressor, particularly its impact on RORα-mediated transcriptional repression, and reports no new experimental findings.
This review discusses the role of epidermal differentiation complex genes and epigenetic mechanisms in skin development and certain diseases, emphasizing their potential for improving drug development and delivery systems but provides no new experimental results.
