120-150 / 1000+ resultsresearch Pili trianguli et canaliculi as a phenotypic subtype in patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia: A scanning electron microscopy study
Hair shaft changes may be linked to CCCA, but their role is unclear.
research Existence of various structural zones in keratinous tissues revealed by X-ray microdiffraction
Keratinous tissues have multiple structural layers, including ordered keratin and lipid granules.
research Immunohistochemical expressions of mGluR5, P2Y2 receptor, PLC-?1, and IP3R-I and -II in Merkel cells in rat sinus hair follicles
research Epithelial barrier function: assembly and structural features of the cornified cell envelope
The cornified cell envelope forms a protective barrier in skin and hair, using specific proteins and lipids to maintain effectiveness.
research Catagen in the hairless house mouse
Hairless mice have longer hair follicles and abnormal structures during the catagen phase.
research The three-dimensional microvascular and collagen fibrillar arrangements around rat vibrissa hairs as revealed by scanning electron microscopy
The lower part of rat vibrissa hair gets more blood and is well-protected for growth.
research [Skin-like structure generated from implantation of hair follicle bulb cells into collagen/chitosan porous scaffolds in vitro].
Hair bulb cells can create skin-like tissues for potential skin repair.
research Histology and ultrastructure of canine hair follicle stem cells (cHFSCs)
Canine hair follicle stem cells are located in the isthmus/bulge region of the hair follicle.
research Ultrastructural and immunohistochemical characteristics of telocytes in human scalp tissue
Telocytes in the scalp may help with skin regeneration and maintenance.
research Fine Structure of Perifollicular Nerve Endings in Human Hair
research Trichohyalin, an intermediate filament-associated protein of the hair follicle.
Trichohyalin is a protein in hair follicles that helps form hair filaments.
research Morphological and histological observations on the hair brush of Endoclita vietnamensis (Lepidoptera, Hepialidae)
The study identifies the pheromone gland's location and structure in Endoclita vietnamensis, aiding future pest control methods.
research Responses of hair follicle–associated structures to loss of planar cell polarity signaling
Loss of Fz6 disrupts hair follicle and associated structures' orientation.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Outer root sheath (ORS) cells organize into epidermoid cyst-like spheroids when cultured inside Matrigel: a light-microscopic and immunohistological comparison between human ORS cells and interfollicular keratinocytes
research Hair Matrix Cyst
Hair matrix cysts are rare skin nodules with unique features, often needing surgical removal.
research Are the Meibomian glands “hair follicles without a hair shaft” ?
Meibomian glands are like hair follicles without a hair shaft.
research Electron microscope observations on the glassy layer of the hair follicle*1
The glassy layer of hair follicles has different fibril sizes and arrangements in guinea pigs and young mice.
research Organization of microfibrils in keratin fibers studied by X-ray scattering
The study improved understanding of keratin fiber structure by showing consistent microfibril diameter but varying distances and electron density profiles.
research Citrulline-containing basal cell carcinomas. Differentiation toward hair structures with induction of dermal hair papillae
Citrulline in certain skin tumors suggests they mimic hair growth, helping distinguish them from other cancer types.
research The structure of human trichohyalin : potential multiple roles as a functional ef-hand-like calcium-binding protein, a cornified cell envelope precursor, and an intermediate filament-associated (cross-linking) protein
Trichohyalin is a versatile protein involved in hair and skin structure.
research Formation of surface membranes in developing mammalian hair fibres
Mature hair surfaces are formed by keratinized cells with developed layers, not just modified plasma membranes.
