research 879 IL-9 mediated human primary keratinocytes invasion is dependent on MLC controlled contractility and independent of MMP activity
IL-9 increases skin cell movement but decreases their ability to invade, and this effect is controlled by cell contractility, not by MMPs.
research Modulating mechanosensory afferent excitability by an atypical mG luR
A compound named ZCZ90 can increase muscle spindle firing, potentially helping treat muscle spasms and hypertension.
research 1407 Mechanical force activation of TGF-β signaling controls hair follicle regression
Muscle around hair follicles controls hair loss by releasing a signal that causes cell death.
research Simultaneous occurrence of neuromyotonia and morphoea: a cause-effect relationship?
Neuromyotonia and morphoea can occur together in the same body areas.
research Potassium Channel Openers Increase Aortic Elastic Fiber Formation and Reverse the Genetically Determined Elastin Deficit in the BN Rat
Potassium channel openers help form elastic fibers in arteries and can treat elastin deficiency and hypertension.
research 任意方向の負荷に対する多自由度機構の出力変位誤差評価 : 評価法の提案と3自由度空間パラレルメカニズムの高剛性化(機械力学,計測,自動制御)
Minoxidil sulfate and pinacidil promote hair growth likely by increasing blood flow, not by activating K channels.
research Poster 147 Determination of Individual in Vivo Hip Muscle Forces Using an EMG‐to‐Force Processing Model
The EMG-to-force model accurately predicts hip muscle forces during walking.
research What does the concept of the stem cell niche really mean today?
Stem cell niches support, regulate, and coordinate stem cell functions.
research Immune deficiency–related enteropathy-lymphocytopenia-alopecia syndrome results from tetratricopeptide repeat domain 7A deficiency
A deficiency in the TTC7A gene causes immune problems, gut issues, and hair loss.
research Culture and Differentiation of Human Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells in a Soft 3D Self-Assembling Peptide Scaffold
The 3D scaffold helped maintain hair cell traits and could improve hair loss treatments.
research Esrp1-Regulated Splicing of Arhgef11 Isoforms Is Required for Epithelial Tight Junction Integrity
The study concluded that specific proteins are necessary to maintain the structure that holds epithelial cells tightly together.
research Human Dermal Fibroblasts Demonstrate Positive Immunostaining for Neuron- and Glia- Specific Proteins
Fibroblasts can be mistaken for neural cells, so functional validation is needed.
research Leveraging Crosslinker Diffusion to Template Stiffness Gradients in Alginate Hydrogels
Stiffness gradients in alginate gels can guide cancer cell invasion and study cellular behaviors.
research AP-2α/AP-2β transcription factors are key regulators of epidermal homeostasis
AP-2α and AP-2β proteins are essential for healthy adult skin and hair.
research Cryogelation of human hair keratins
Human hair keratins can be turned into useful 3D biomedical scaffolds through a freeze-thaw process.
research 1336 The de novo DNA methyltransferase DNMT3A is required for epidermal homeostasis
DNMT3A is crucial for healthy skin and hair growth.
research 1339 Mature adipocytes inhibit the antimicrobial function of dermal adipogenic stem cells: An explanation for impaired cutaneous defense in obesity
Obesity can weaken the skin's ability to fight infections because fat cells stop and reduce the infection-fighting properties of nearby stem cells.
research Extracellular Caspase-1 induces hair stem cell migration in wounded and inflamed skin conditions
Caspase-1 helps hair stem cells move to heal wounded or inflamed skin.
research Biochemical Evidence That Small Proline-rich Proteins and Trichohyalin Function in Epithelia by Modulation of the Biomechanical Properties of Their Cornified Cell Envelopes
