Further research is needed to develop effective cancer prevention strategies.
research In vivo silica nanoparticle translocation across human stratum corneum: the effect of surface hydrophobization in relation to hair follicle density.
Hydrophobized silica nanoparticles penetrate the skin's outer layer more effectively, while hair follicle density doesn't impact their accumulation.
research Exclusive androgenic effect of dehydroepiandrosterone in sebaceous glands of rat skin
DHEA acts like a male hormone on rat skin glands and doesn't turn into female hormones there.

MCP@G improves diabetic wound healing by reducing stress and promoting tissue repair.
research Intermolecular disulfide cross-linked structural change induced by permanent wave treatment of human hair with thioglycolic acid.
Permanent wave treatment with thioglycolic acid changes hair structure by altering disulfide bonds.

A vitamin D3 compound can reduce skin cell growth.
research Chelators Depigment and Inorease Elasticity of Mink Skin
Certain chelators lighten mink skin and hair, increase skin elasticity, and disrupt hair growth without affecting fur quality.
research Poly(rC) binding protein 2 acts as a negative regulator of IRES-mediated translation of Hr mRNA
A protein called PCBP2 controls the production of a hair growth protein by interacting with its genetic message and is linked to hair loss when this control is disrupted.
research Distinct Developmental Functions of Prostasin (CAP1/PRSS8) Zymogen and Activated Prostasin
Prostasin has two roles in skin: one for normal skin development without needing activation, and another for proper hair growth that requires activation.
