research Introduction to Hair-Follicle-Associated Pluripotent Stem Cells
HAP stem cells can repair nerves, grow hair follicle nerves, and become heart muscle cells, making them useful for regenerative medicine.
research Morphological analyses in fragility of pili torti with Björnstad syndrome
Pili torti hair is fragile due to loose keratin filaments and weak disulfide bonds.
research Observation of different HHK groups with SEM
Different human hair keratin types have unique structures that affect how they dissolve and can be used to create self-tendons.
research Sequences and differential expression of three novel human type-II hair keratins
Hair differentiation starts earlier than thought, involving multiple type-II keratins.
research A Mouse Model for the Basal Transcription/DNA Repair Syndrome Trichothiodystrophy
Researchers created a mouse with the same mutation as humans with trichothiodystrophy, showing similar symptoms and confirming the condition is due to defects in DNA repair and gene activity.
