research Investigation of human hair fibers using lateral force microscopy
Hair treatments like bleaching increase friction by exposing tiny pores on the hair surface.
research Keratin network modifications lead to the mechanical stiffening of the hair follicle fiber
Changes in keratin make hair follicles stiffer.
research Touch Receptors Undergo Rapid Remodeling in Healthy Skin
Touch sensitivity in mouse skin decreases during hair growth due to changes in touch receptors.
research Genetic variants in pachyonychia congenita-associated keratins increase susceptibility to tooth decay
Certain genetic variants in keratins increase the risk of tooth decay.
research Defining the Localization and Molecular Characteristic of Minor Salivary Gland Label-Retaining Cells
The study found stem cells in minor salivary glands that can differentiate and are involved in tumor formation when exposed to tobacco.
research Molecular pathology of skin adnexal tumours
New markers and pathways have been found in skin tumors, helping better understand and diagnose them.
research A technique for more precise distinction between catagen and telogen human hair follicles ex vivo
Researchers developed a new method using methylene blue staining to more accurately identify the growth stage of human hair follicles.
research Immunofluorescence Tomography: High-resolution 3-D reconstruction by serial-sectioning of methacrylate embedded tissues and alignment of 2-D immunofluorescence images
Immunofluorescence tomography is a cost-effective method for creating detailed 3-D images of tissues.
research Study on Hair Distribution in Healthy Males for Hair Restoration Design
About 21.3% of young, healthy Chinese men experience hair loss. Hairlines are mostly linear or have a central protrusion. Hair is densest on the top and back of the head, and hair follicles usually have 1 or 2 hairs. This information can help in designing hair restoration procedures.
research Flow-guided hair removal for automated skin lesion identification
The new method removes hair from skin images quickly and accurately to help identify skin lesions better.
research Exposure to gamma-rays at the telogen phase of the hair cycle inhibits hair follicle regeneration at the anagen phase in mice
Gamma-rays exposure during the resting phase of hair growth can damage hair regeneration and color in mice.
research Three-dimensional reconstructions of mechanosensory end organs suggest a unifying mechanism underlying dynamic, light touch
Dynamic, light touch is sensed through a common mechanism involving Piezo2 channels in sensory axons.
research Deep phenotyping of skin tissue remodeling in patients with systemic sclerosis treated with CD19-CAR T cells
CD19-CAR T cell therapy may help regenerate skin in systemic sclerosis.
research Three-dimensional ultrastructural analysis of human skin with the arrector pili muscle interacting with the hair follicle epithelium
The method effectively analyzes skin tissue changes, especially in the arrector pili muscle and nerve fibers with hair follicles.
research Multi-scale spatial mapping of cell populations across anatomical sites in healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma
The research created a detailed map of skin cells, showing that certain cells in basal cell carcinoma may come from hair follicles and could help the cancer grow.
research Overexpression of HE4/WFDC2 gene in mice leads to keratitis and corneal opacity
Overexpression of the HE4 gene in mice causes eye inflammation and cloudiness.
research Wnt target gene Ascl4 is dispensable for skin appendage development
The gene Ascl4 is not necessary for the development of hair, teeth, or mammary glands.
research Label-free proteomics to identify keratins and keratin-associated proteins and their effects on the fleece traits of Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats
Proteins influence the quality and traits of cashmere goat fleece, affecting hair strength and diameter.
research Case Report: Bi-allelic missense variant in the desmocollin 3 gene causes hypotrichosis and recurrent skin vesicles
A new genetic change in the DSC3 gene is linked to a rare condition causing hair loss and skin blisters in a child.
research The Distribution of Preputial Vessels at Different Severity of Rat Congenital Hypospadias Model
Micro-CT helps identify suitable areas for surgical procedures based on blood vessel distribution in hypospadias-affected rats.
research Rand Protease: The Role of Calcium-Binding Site on Stability with Mutagenesis and The Effectiveness on Leather Dehairing
The enzyme Rand protease works well for leather dehairing and its stability is important, with Leu75 playing a key role.
research Dermatoses of pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause various skin changes and diseases, with PUPPP being the most common skin condition specific to pregnancy.
research Keratin 17 null mice exhibit age- and strain-dependent alopecia
Keratin 17 is crucial for early hair strength and cell survival.
research Production of mannosylerythritol lipids and their application in cosmetics
Mannosylerythritol lipids are good for skin and hair care products.
research Development and progression of alopecia in the vitamin D receptor null mouse
Mice without the vitamin D receptor gene lose hair due to disrupted hair follicle cycles.
research Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Hair Follicle–Specific Gene, Hacl-1
Researchers found a new gene, hacl-1, that is active in mouse hair follicles during hair growth and may be important for hair biology.
research Major depletion of SOX2+ stem cells in the adult pituitary is not restored which does not affect hormonal cell homeostasis and remodelling
The pituitary gland functions normally even after losing most SOX2+ stem cells.
research A disease-causing novel missense mutation in the ST14 gene underlies autosomal recessive ichthyosis with hypotrichosis syndrome in a consanguineous family
A new mutation in the ST14 gene causes a rare skin and hair disorder in a specific family.
research Determination of finasteride and its metabolite in urine by dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction combined with field-enhanced sample stacking and sweeping
New method accurately measures finasteride and M3 in urine, helping evaluate pharmacokinetics.
