390-420 / 1000+ results research Extensive cicatricial alopecia in a patient with long‐term trichotillomania
Early treatment of hair-pulling disorder is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss and scarring.
research Hair Follicle Biology, the Sebaceous Gland, and Scarring Alopecias
Hair follicles grow hair and release it through the skin.
research Trichotillomania
Trichotillomania is a condition where people repeatedly pull out their hair, which can be triggered by stress and has various physical signs.
research Alopecia in Epidermolysis Bullosa
The document suggests that certain protein deficiencies and scalp blistering in Epidermolysis Bullosa may cause hair loss.
research Trichostasis spinulosa: An overlooked entity
Trichostasis spinulosa is a common but often unnoticed skin condition involving bundled vellus hairs, especially in people with darker skin or UV exposure.
research The structure and organization of lanceolate mechanosensory complexes at mouse hair follicles
Lanceolate complexes in mouse hair follicles are essential for touch and depend on specific cells for maintenance and regeneration.
research Cell observation method under near-living conditions by scanning electron microscopy
The method using ionic liquid improves observation of cell structures with less damage.
research Tufted hair folliculitis developing in a recalcitrant lesion of pemphigus vulgaris
Scalp inflammation can cause multiple hairs to grow from one follicle.
research SCD1 Sustains Homeostasis of Bulge Niche via Maintaining Hemidesmosomes in Basal Keratinocytes
SCD1 is important for hair growth by keeping the connection in skin cells where hair stem cells live stable.
research Preparing the hair follicle canal for hair shaft emergence
A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.
research Specific In Vivo Ablation of Lrig1-Positive Follicular Progenitor Cells Results in Sebaceous Gland Loss in Mice
Removing Lrig1-positive cells in mice leads to temporary loss of sebaceous glands.
research Cornification
Cornification is the process where living skin cells die to create a protective barrier, and problems with it can cause skin diseases.
research 872 Dermal Wnt/β-catenin signaling controls hair follicle dermal condensate size during development
Dermal Wnt/β-catenin signaling is important for the proper size and development of hair follicles.
research Double mutation of claudin‐1 and claudin‐3 causes alopecia in infant mice
Mutations in claudin-1 and claudin-3 cause hair loss in baby mice.
research Structural and Immunocytochemical Characterization of Keratinization in Vertebrate Epidermis and Epidermal Derivatives
Vertebrate skin evolved to be more specialized and complex, especially in land animals.
research 676 An underlying mechanism of hair loss in acrodermatitis enteropathica
Zinc deficiency causes reversible hair loss by disrupting hair growth and stem cell function.
research Uncombable hair syndrome: A case presentation
Uncombable hair syndrome causes dry, frizzy hair that can't be combed flat, seen in a young child.
research Differential sensitivity of epidermal cell subpopulations to β-catenin-induced ectopic hair follicle formation
Sebaceous glands can form new hair follicles when activated, but hair follicle bulges cannot.
research The targeted overexpression of a Claudin mutant in the epidermis of transgenic mice elicits striking epidermal and hair follicle abnormalities
research 591 Chromatin architectural protein CTCF regulates terminal keratinocyte differentiation in the developing epidermis and hair follicles
CTCF protein is essential for skin and hair follicle development in mice.
research 194 An underlying mechanism of hair loss in acrodermatitis enteropathica
Zinc deficiency disrupts hair growth and cycle, but zinc supplements can fix this.
research Essential Role of Polarity Protein Par3 for Epidermal Homeostasis through Regulation of Barrier Function, Keratinocyte Differentiation, and Stem Cell Maintenance
The protein Par3 is crucial for healthy skin, affecting the skin barrier, cell differentiation, and stem cell maintenance.
research Force-triggered density gradient sedimentation and cocktail enzyme digestion treatment for isolation of single dermal papilla cells from follicular unit extraction harvesting human hair follicles
New methods efficiently isolate dermal papilla cells from hair follicles, preserving their characteristics better than traditional methods.
research Coactivator MED1 Ablation in Keratinocytes Results in Hair-Cycling Defects and Epidermal Alterations
Deleting MED1 in skin cells causes hair loss and skin changes.
research Superficial Epidermolytic Ichthyosis—Hypertrichosis as a Clue to Diagnosis
Hypertrichosis (excessive hair growth) can help diagnose superficial epidermolytic ichthyosis.
research 441 Anti-melanoma gene signature in dermal sheath fibroblasts from scalp hair follicles in Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (RDEB)
research Commentary for Treatment of Thin Linear Scars on the Scalp
Double trichophytic closure effectively repairs thin scalp scars, reducing financial burden.
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 Loss of epidermal PLCg1 induced sebaceous gland hyperplasia and sparse hair
Removing PLCg1 from skin cells caused thicker oil glands and less hair in mice.
