research The Functional Organization of Cutaneous Low-Threshold Mechanosensory Neurons
Different hair follicles in the skin are innervated by unique combinations of mechanosensory neurons, crucial for touch sensation.
research Reversible Activation of c-Myc in Skin
Activating c-Myc in skin causes rapid cell growth and changes, but these effects are reversible.
research The Catalog of Human Hair Keratins
Human hair keratins were cataloged, showing their roles in hair differentiation stages.
research The expanding significance of keratin intermediate filaments in normal and diseased epithelia
Keratin proteins are increasingly recognized as important for cell health and are linked to many diseases.
research Regeneration of Dermis: Scarring and Cells Involved
Different fibroblasts play key roles in skin healing and scarring.
research Methods in hair research: how to objectively distinguish between anagen and catagen in human hair follicle organ culture
A reliable system was developed to distinguish hair growth stages, aiding in identifying hair growth promoters or inhibitors.
research K6irs1, K6irs2, K6irs3, and K6irs4 Represent the Inner-Root-Sheath-Specific Type II Epithelial Keratins of the Human Hair Follicle1
Four specific keratins in hair follicles help understand hair structure and function.
research Do Hair Bulb Melanocytes Undergo Apotosis During Hair Follicle Regression (Catagen)?
Hair follicle melanocytes die during hair regression.
research Human Female Hair Follicles Are a Direct, Nonclassical Target for Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone
Thyroid-stimulating hormone affects hair follicles but doesn't change hair growth or color.
research Directed Expression of Keratin 16 to the Progenitor Basal Cells of Transgenic Mouse Skin Delays Skin Maturation
Keratin 16 delays skin maturation and affects skin and hair development in mice.
research Activation of TRPV3 Regulates Inflammatory Actions of Human Epidermal Keratinocytes
TRPV3 in skin cells causes inflammation and cell death.
research A new mutation Rim3 resembling Re den is mapped close to retinoic acid receptor alpha (Rara) gene on mouse Chromosome 11
research The biology and genetics of curly hair
Curly hair is influenced by specific genetic variations.
research The Histology of Keratin Fibers
research Signature selection analysis reveals candidate genes associated with production traits in Iranian sheep breeds
Certain genes in Iranian sheep are linked to wool production and heat adaptation.
research Recent Advances in the Structural Design of Photosensitive Agent Formulations Using “Soft” Colloidal Nanocarriers
New nanocarriers improve drug delivery for disease treatment.
research Herbs for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Herbal treatments can help with early-stage BPH symptoms, but more research is needed.
research The Type I Keratin 19 Possesses Distinct and Context-dependent Assembly Properties
Keratin 19 forms less stable and shorter filaments than keratin 14, giving unique traits to certain skin cells.
research Alopecia in a Novel Mouse Model RCO3 Is Caused by mK6irs1 Deficiency
A missing mK6irs1 gene causes hair loss in mice.
research Development of Hair Fibres
research Expression of Cyclooxygenase Isozymes During Morphogenesis and Cycling of Pelage Hair Follicles in Mouse Skin: Precocious Onset of the First Catagen Phase and Alopecia upon Cyclooxygenase-2 Overexpression
Overexpression of COX-2 causes early hair loss in mice, but can be prevented with a COX-2 inhibitor.
research Hair Follicular Expression and Function of Group X Secreted Phospholipase A2 in Mouse Skin
sPLA2-X is crucial for normal hair growth and follicle health.
research cDNA Cloning, Expression, and Assembly Characteristics of Mouse Keratin 16
Mouse and human keratin 16 can both form filaments, with differences likely due to the tail domain, not the helical domain.
research Dermal Adipose Tissue Secretes HGF to Promote Human Hair Growth and Pigmentation
Fat under the skin releases HGF which helps hair grow and gain color.
research Disruption of tubular Flcn expression as a mouse model for renal tumor induction
Disrupting the Flcn gene in mice causes early kidney cysts and tumors, which can be treated with rapamycin.
research Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin in Cutaneous Immune-Mediated Diseases
A protein called lfTSLP is important in causing allergic and other skin diseases and could be a target for treatment.
