research The overexpression of R-spondin 3 affects hair morphogenesis and hair development along with the formation and maturation of the hair follicle stem cells
Overexpression of R-spondin 3 leads to sparse hair and impaired hair regeneration.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The skin has multiple layers and cells, serves as a protective barrier, helps regulate temperature, enables sensation, affects appearance, and is involved in vitamin D synthesis.
research Arachidonate 12-Lipoxygenase Inhibitors Promote S100A3 Citrullination in Cultured SW480 Cells and Isolated Hair Follicles
Inhibiting ALOX12 can help hair cuticle maturation by increasing S100A3 citrullination.
research Formation of the cornified envelope
The cornified envelope is crucial for skin's barrier function and involves key proteins and genetic factors.

The meeting highlighted the genetic basis of female pattern hair loss and various skin health insights.
research The role of integrin alphavbeta6 in impaired wound healing and hair follicle regeneration
Integrin alphavbeta6 is important for wound healing and hair growth, and blocking it may improve these processes.
research Clinical Findings, Cutaneous Pathology, and Response to Therapy in 21 Patients With Keratosis Pilaris Atrophicans
The study found that Keratosis Pilaris Atrophicans is a genetic skin condition that starts in childhood, involves inflammation and scarring, and current treatments are only somewhat effective.
research A discourse on human hair fibers and reflections on the conservation of drug molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
research Fine structure and immunocytochemistry of monotreme hairs, with emphasis on the inner root sheath and trichohyalin‐based cornification during hair evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research Scratching the surface of skin development
The document concludes that skin stem cells are important for hair growth and wound healing, and could be used in regenerative medicine.
research The disruption of Sox21-mediated hair shaft cuticle differentiation causes cyclic alopecia in mice
Disrupting the Sox21 gene in mice causes hair loss and regrowth cycles.
research Whole exome sequencing in Alopecia Areata identifies rare variants in KRT82
Rare changes in the KRT82 gene are linked to a higher risk of Alopecia Areata.
research TRPS1 mutation associated with trichorhinophalangeal syndrome type 1 with 15 supernumerary teeth, hypoplastic mandibular condyles with slender condylar necks and unique hair morphology
A person with a specific gene mutation had extra teeth, unique jaw and hair features not seen before in this condition.
