research 1361 A novel cell surface marker for hair follicle dermal cells throughout hair morphogenesis and cycling
Researchers found that the Leptin receptor is a consistent marker for hair follicle dermal cells, which may help future hair research.
research 1362 The role of Fgf20 in establishing the hair follicle dermal condensate
Fgf20 is important for the development and regulation of the cells that form the base of hair follicles.
research 1359 Hair growth is induced by blockade of macrophage-derived oncostatin M and downstream JAK-STAT5 signaling in hair follicle stem cells
Blocking a specific immune cell signal can trigger hair growth.

Hair grows when stem cell offspring in the follicle base proliferate, influenced by the dermal papilla.
research BRCA2 in abscission
The tumor suppressor BRCA2 helps in cell division by bringing key proteins to the area where cells split.
research De novo filament formation by human hair keratins K85 and K35 follows a filament development pattern distinct from cytokeratin filament networks
Human hair keratins K85 and K35 create unique filament patterns important for early hair formation.
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 Results of 60-second timed hair counts in women between the ages of 20–60 years
The 60-second timed hair count is a reliable and simple way to measure hair shedding at home, showing older women tend to shed more hair than younger women.
research Alopecia Areata is associated with MICA and an extended HLA haplotype
Certain genes are linked to the risk of developing Alopecia Areata.
research Mapping the molecular and structural specialization of the skin basement membrane for inter-tissue interactions
The skin's basement membrane has specialized structures and molecules for different tissue interactions, important for hair growth and attachment.
research Analysis of the sheep trichohyalin gene: potential structural and calcium-binding roles of trichohyalin in the hair follicle.
Trichohyalin in sheep hair follicles may help with structure and calcium binding.
