research Discussion: Themes in the Molecular Structure of Hair
Keratin proteins are crucial for hair structure and strength.
research A detailed mapping of the readily accessible disulphide bonds in the cortex of wool fibres
Researchers found that the most reachable bonds in wool fibers are near the ends of certain proteins, which help stabilize the fiber's structure.
research Analysis of hair follicle penetration of lidocaine and fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran 4 kDa using hair follicle-plugging method
Hair follicles are important for the absorption of certain drugs into the skin.
research 660 Complex cellular flows shape feather follicle topology
Cell movements and forces shape feather growth in chicken skin.
research Epidermal structure created by canine hair follicle keratinocytes enriched with bulge cells in a three‐dimensional skin equivalent model in vitro: implications for regenerative therapy of canine epidermis
Keratinocytes from dog hair follicles can create a functional skin layer in a lab model, useful for dog skin therapy.
research Crosslinking Between Trichocyte Keratins and Keratin Associated Proteins
research Failure of intercellular adhesion in hair fibers with regard to hair condition and strain conditions
Hair breaks differently when wet or dry and is affected by its condition and treatments like perms and bleaching.
research 745 Full thickness wound healing in the Lanyu pig
Full thickness wounds on Lanyu pigs' skin resulted in abnormal skin structure and function due to changes in molecular expression patterns.
research A new type of pachyonychia congenita.
A new type of pachyonychia congenita may exist, caused by a different keratin mutation.
research Structural features and sites of expression of a new murine 65 kD and 48 kD hair-related keratin pair, associated with a special type of parakeratotic epithelial differentiation
A new pair of mouse keratins, 65 kD and 48 kD, are found in specific skin areas and are linked to a unique skin differentiation type.
research Isolated Human Skin Glands and Appendages: Models for Cystic Fibrosis, Acne Vulgaris, Alopecia and Hidradenitis Suppurativa
research Does dry skin indicate defective epidermal permeability barrier?
Dry skin does not mean the skin's protective barrier is broken; it's often due to a lack of natural skin moisturizers.
research Influence of Sex and Hair Growth Cycle on Lipid Composition of Mouse Epidermis.
Male and female mice have different lipid compositions in their skin during hair growth cycles.
research Ultrastructural localization of hair keratin homologs in the claw of the lizard Anolis carolinensis
Lizard claws have hair-like keratins similar to those in mammals.
research Loss of Keratin K2 Expression Causes Aberrant Aggregation of K10, Hyperkeratosis, and Inflammation
Loss of keratin K2 causes skin problems and inflammation.
research Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, leading to their unique scales and skin features.
research Evidence for Novel Functions of the Keratin Tail Emerging from a Mutation Causing Ichthyosis Hystrix
The keratin tail is crucial for skin structure and function.
research 693 Dermal papilla-derived Wnt ligands are required for adult hair follicle growth
Wnt ligands, produced by dermal papilla cells, are essential for adult hair growth and regeneration.
research Weathering of the hairless scalp: a study using skin capacitance imaging and ultraviolet light-enhanced visualization
The study found that long-term sun exposure does not significantly affect follicular plugs on the scalp, and the scalp's appearance is unique compared to other body parts.
research The stem cell quiescence and niche signaling is disturbed in the hair follicle of the hairpoor mouse, an MUHH model mouse
Disrupted stem cell signals in hairpoor mice cause hair loss.
research PA33 When bones speak through nails: insights from a paediatric case series
Nail abnormalities in children can indicate deeper health issues.
research Genetic studies on the functional relevance of the protein prenyltransferases in skin keratinocytes
FTase and GGTase-I are essential for skin keratinocyte health.
research 666 Sebaceous gland abnormalities in fatty acyl CoA reductase 2 (Far2) null mice result in follicular dystrophy and primary cicatricial alopecia
Mutations in Far2 mice cause hair loss due to sebaceous gland issues.
research Common genetic hair shaft abnormalities may be visualized by light and electron microscope
Genetic hair shaft abnormalities can be seen with microscopes and often affect scalp hair.
research Preferential crosstalk between perifollicular capillary vessels and dermal papilla cells during hair cycling homeostasis
Capillary and dermal papilla interactions are vital for hair growth and aging, with potential for treating hair loss.
research Are the Meibomian glands “hair follicles without a hair shaft” ?
Meibomian glands are like hair follicles without a hair shaft.
research Exploring Mechanical Niches Identified by Hair Follicle Compression and How These Transduce Proliferation and Differentiation Cues in Epidermally Derived cells.
Less stiff collagen promotes higher cell growth in hair follicles.
research Controlled dissection for trichophytic closures with a Ledge Knife
Using a special knife helps improve hairline scars from surgery.
research FORMATION OF A REGULAR NEO-EPIDERMIS BY CULTURED HUMAN OUTER ROOT SHEATH CELLS GRAFTED ON NUDE MICE
Human hair follicle cells can be used to help heal and replace skin.
