research 1363 Hair follicle growth and pigmentation during ageing
The research found that a specific skin cell type not only triggers hair growth but also controls hair color, and that aging can lead to hair loss and color changes.
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.
research Watching hair grow
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 Keratin network modifications lead to the mechanical stiffening of the hair follicle fiber
Changes in keratin make hair follicles stiffer.
research The inconsistent regulation of HOXC13 on different keratins and the regulation mechanism on HOXC13 in cashmere goat (Capra hircus)
The HOXC13 gene affects different hair proteins in cashmere goats in varied ways and is controlled by a feedback loop and other factors.
research Haplotypes spanning centromeric regions reveal persistence of large blocks of archaic DNA
Ancient DNA blocks are still present in human genomes, possibly due to advantages they provide.
research Fail-tests of DNA methylation clocks, and development of a noise barometer for measuring epigenetic pressure of aging and disease
Elastic Net DNA methylation clocks are inaccurate for predicting age and health status; a "noise barometer" may better indicate aging and disease.
research Probing keratinocyte and differentiation specificity of the human K5 promoter in vitro and in transgenic mice.
The K5 promoter controls gene expression in skin cells, with specific DNA segments crucial for targeting and regulation.
research The cell membrane complex: Three related but different cellular cohesion components of mammalian hair fibers
The cell membrane complex in mammalian hair has three distinct types with different structures and chemical properties.
research Quantification of hair follicle parameters using computer image analysis: A comparison of androgenetic alopecia with normal scalp biopsies
Hair follicles are smaller in people with androgenetic alopecia compared to those with normal scalps.
research Acral lymphomatoid papulosis
A woman had a rare skin condition with recurring painful nodules that heal in 6 weeks, often without needing treatment.
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 3P343 Change of cell membrane complex of a hair fiber caused by hair damage
Chemical treatments damage hair more than UV exposure, making it thinner and less flexible.
research Three strands ironed closely together
A new method was developed to create complex molecular knots using iron ions.
research Probing Keratinocyte and Differentiation Specificity of the Human K5 Promoter in Vitro and in Transgenic Mice
The human K5 promoter controls specific gene expression in skin cells, with key regulatory elements near the TATA box.
research Human hair keratin-associated proteins: Sequence regularities and structural implications
Keratin-associated proteins help link filaments and affect keratin's strength.
research Analysis of structural change in keratin fibers resulting from chemical treatments using Raman spectroscopy
Chemical hair straightening changes hair proteins and mostly fixes broken bonds.
research Size Polymorphisms in the Human Ultrahigh Sulfur Hair Keratin-Associated Protein 4, KAP4, Gene Family
The study found that variations in hair protein genes are likely due to evolutionary deletions or duplications.
research Histone H3 K4/9/27 Trimethylation Levels Affect Wound Healing and Stem Cell Dynamics in Adult Skin
Proper tissue repair in adult skin requires specific histone hypomethylation.
research Direct evidence supporting the existence of a helical dislocation in protofilament packing in the intermediate filaments of oxidized trichocyte keratin
Oxidized trichocyte keratin has a helical dislocation in its structure.
research Trichoscopy
Trichoscopy is a non-invasive way to diagnose hair and scalp problems without needing hair samples.
research LC determination of finasteride and its application to storage stability studies
Finasteride remains stable for two years with proper storage.
research Structural Transition of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments During Development in the Hair Follicle
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 Signalling couples hair follicle stem cell quiescence with reduced histone H3 K4/K9/K27me3 for proper tissue homeostasis
Certain signals are important for reducing specific chemical markers on hair follicle stem cells during rest periods, which is necessary for healthy hair growth.
