330-360 / 1000+ resultsresearch Adhesion Molecules in Skin Development: Morphogenesis of Feather and Haira
Adhesion molecules are crucial for the development of feathers and hair.
research Human hair keratins
research 1426 Deletion of hoxc13 in frogs reveals key steps in the molecular evolution of cornified skin appendages
Deleting the Hoxc13 gene in frogs shows its crucial role in developing skin structures similar to hair.
research Embryonic keratinization in vertebrates in relation to land colonization
Keratinization in embryos helped vertebrates adapt to land by forming a protective skin barrier.
research The concept of the onychodermis (specialized nail mesenchyme): an embryological assessment and a comparative analysis with the hair follicle
The onychodermis helps anchor the nail bed and may aid in nail formation.
research 874 Chromatin architectural protein CTCF controls epidermal barrier formation, hair follicle fate maintenance and suppresses inflammatory responses in the skin epithelium
The protein CTCF is essential for skin development, maintaining hair follicles, and preventing inflammation.
research Analysis of slenderizing human hair fibers surface morphology
research Comparative Spatial Transcriptomic and Single-Cell Analyses of Human Nail Units and Hair Follicles Show Transcriptional Similarities between the Onychodermis and Follicular Dermal Papilla
Human nails and hair follicles have similar gene activity, especially in the cells that contribute to their growth and development.
research Celsr1 and Celsr2 exhibit distinct adhesive interactions and contributions to planar cell polarity
Celsr1 is crucial for skin cell alignment, while Celsr2 has little effect on this process.
research Generation of bioengineered feather buds on a reconstructed chick skin from dissociated epithelial and mesenchymal cells
Scientists created feather buds in lab-grown chick skin using specific cell interactions.
research A Mouse Model for Conditional Expression of Activated β-Catenin in Epidermal Keratinocytes
Activated β-catenin affects hair growth and skin thickness, and changes are reversible.
research Nucleation and growth of macrofibrils in trichocyte (hard-α) keratins
Sheet formation is key to macrofibril structure differences in wool.
research Planar cell polarity effector gene Intu regulates cell fate-specific differentiation of keratinocytes through the primary cilia
Intu gene is crucial for hair follicle formation by helping keratinocytes differentiate through primary cilia.
research Immunoperoxidase anti-keratin staining of epidermal and pilar cysts
Epidermal cysts come from the skin, while pilar cysts come from hair follicles.
research Loss of keratin 10 is accompanied by increased sebocyte proliferation and differentiation
Without keratin 10, there's more growth and development of oil-producing skin cells.
research Cuticle damage and the tensile properties of human hair
Cuticle damage doesn't affect hair's tensile strength; the cortex is responsible for it.
research 259 Scalp hair follicle dermal sheath fibroblasts express genes associated with promotion of skin integrity/wound healing and prevention of autoimmune responses in Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
Scalp hair follicle cells help protect and heal skin in certain skin conditions.
research Patterns of expression of trichocytic and epithelial cytokeratins in mammalian tissues
Trichocytic differentiation starts in cells with epithelial cytokeratins, transitioning to trichocytic cytokeratins in hair and gradually in nails.
research Isolation and properties of inner sheath cells of hair follicles
research Characterization of the epidermal-dermal junction in hiPSC-derived skin organoids
The study created hair-bearing skin models that lack a key protein for skin layer attachment, limiting their use for certain skin disease research.
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 Differential epithelial outgrowth of plucked and microdissected human hair follicles in explant culture
research Differential epithelial outgrowth of plucked and microdissected human hair follicles in explant culture
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 The infected hairs of tinea capitis due to Microsporum canis: Demonstration of uniqueness of the hair cuticle by scanning electron microscopy
The hair cuticle acts as a barrier against fungal infection, which occurs only deep within the hair follicle.
