research 1332 Understanding the role of glycogen metabolism in human hair follicle biology
Glycogen metabolism is important for energy and processes in human hair follicles, and hair follicles may produce glucose from lactate.
research Abstract 22: Tafluprost, a Prostaglandin F2α Analog, Has Therapeutic Potential for Androgenic Alopecia through Modulation of Hair Cycle
Tafluprost could be a potential treatment for hair loss by promoting hair growth phase changes.
research Basonuclin as a cell marker in the formation and cycling of the murine hair follicle
Basonuclin is crucial for hair follicle development and cycling in mice.
research Tight Junction barriers in human hair follicles – role of claudin-1
Claudin-1 is important for the barrier function and growth of hair.
research Pathobiology of chemotherapy-induced hair loss
Chemotherapy causes hair loss by damaging hair follicles and stem cells, with more research needed for prevention and treatment.
research Two distinct signaling pathways in hair cycle induction: Stat3-dependent and -independent pathways
There are two ways to start hair growth: one needs Stat3 and the other does not, but both need PI3K activation.
research Spatiotemporal Expression, Distribution, and Processing of POMC and POMC-derived Peptides in Murine Skin
POMC-derived peptides are important for skin functions like immune response and stress management.
research Targeted inactivation of integrin-linked kinase in hair follicle stem cells reveals an important modulatory role in skin repair after injury
Integrin-linked kinase is crucial for normal skin healing.
research Expression of CD1d in human scalp skin and hair follicles: hair cycle related alterations
CD1d expression in scalp skin and hair follicles changes with the hair cycle and may help protect against microbes.
research Expression and localization of Sox10 during hair follicle morphogenesis and induced hair cycle
Sox10 is important for hair follicle development and hair growth cycles.
research Comparative Hair Restorer Efficacy of Medicinal Herb on Nude (Foxn1 nu
Eclipta alba extract was found to be effective in promoting hair growth in hairless mice.
research Hair-cycle dependent differential expression of ADAM 10 and ADAM 12
ADAM 10 and ADAM 12 proteins are involved in different stages of hair growth and could be targets for treating hair disorders.
research Fibroblast Growth Factor-7 and Hair Biology: Bridging Basic Science and Therapeutic Applications
FGF-7 helps hair grow by activating hair follicles and is a promising target for hair loss treatments.
research Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Hair color is determined by melanin produced and transferred in hair follicles.
research Skin melanocytes: biology and development
The paper concludes that understanding melanocyte development can help in insights into skin diseases and melanoma diversity.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Ligand-Independent Actions of the Vitamin D Receptor Maintain Hair Follicle Homeostasis
The vitamin D receptor is essential for normal hair growth, even without its usual binding.
research Metabolic and cellular analysis of alopecia in vitamin D receptor knockout mice
Alopecia in these mice is caused by defective hair cycle communication due to missing vitamin D receptor function, not vitamin D levels.
research Human hair follicle organ culture: theory, application and perspectives
Human hair follicle organ culture is a useful model for hair research with potential for studying hair biology and testing treatments.
research Do Hair Bulb Melanocytes Undergo Apotosis During Hair Follicle Regression (Catagen)?
Hair follicle melanocytes die during hair regression.
research Hair growth promoting effects of adipose tissue-derived stem cells
Fat tissue stem cells may help increase hair growth.
research Oestrogen functions in skin and skin appendages
Oestrogens help maintain healthy skin, heal wounds, and may protect against skin aging and cancer.
research Control of Human Hair Growth by Neurotrophins: Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Inhibits Hair Shaft Elongation, Induces Catagen, and Stimulates Follicular Transforming Growth Factor β2 Expression
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) slows down hair growth and promotes hair follicle regression.
research Reduction of Intrafollicular Apoptosis in Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia by Topical Calcitriol-Analogs
Topical calcitriol-analogs can reduce hair loss caused by chemotherapy.
research Immunohistochemical localization of cytokeratins and involucrin in calcifying epithelioma: comparative studies with normal skin
