research KERATIN PHENOTYPES IN BASAL-CELL CARCINOMAS OF THE SKIN
Basal cell carcinoma shows keratin patterns similar to hair follicle structures.
research Single-Cell Proteomics Uncovers Dual Traits of Dermal Sheath Cells in Wound Repair
Dermal sheath cells help heal wounds by showing both skin and connective tissue traits.
research Interrogating the integument: the role of the epidermis in hair induction
The epidermis is crucial for hair growth.
research Gate keeping the sebaceous gland
The research found that specific stem cells maintain skin gland openings and that disrupting their activity can cause blockages or early cancer signs, indicating a need for targeted treatments.
research Structure and biochemistry of mammalian hard keratin
research Patterns of expression of trichocytic and epithelial cytokeratins in mammalian tissues. I. Human and bovine hair follicles
Human and bovine hair follicles have distinct cytokeratins specific to hair-forming cells.
research Scanning Electron Microscopic Study on Collagen Fibrils in the Mink Dermis during the Hair Cycle and Growth
Collagen fibrils in mink skin change structure during hair growth, becoming looser and thicker in the active phase.
research 862 Defining the molecular signature of the hair follicle dermal sheath and its functional requirement for hair cycle progression during catagen
The hair follicle dermal sheath is essential for hair shedding and needs to communicate with the outer root sheath for normal hair growth cycles.
research Mapping the accessibility of the disulfide crosslink network in the wool fiber cortex
Cysteines in wool fibers are accessible and form important disulfide bonds.
research Differential expression of stem cell markers in human follicular bulge and interfollicular epidermal compartments
Different markers are found in stem cells of the scalp's hair follicle bulge and the surrounding skin.
research Manipulation of stem cell proliferation and lineage commitment:visualisation of label-retaining cells in wholemounts of mouse epidermis
Stem cell behavior varies with stimuli, and lineage changes can happen without affecting stem cell division.
research The Arrector Pili Muscle and the Follicular Unit of the Scalp: A Microscopic Anatomy Study
The study found that hair follicles are above muscle connections in the scalp, which may help protect stem cell areas.
research Cyclical dermal micro-niche switching governs the morphological infradian rhythm of mouse zigzag hair
Mouse zigzag hair bends form due to a 3-day cycle of changes in hair progenitors and their environment.
research Unusual Eyelid Dermal Keratinous Cysts of Pilosebaceous Origin
Two new types of eyelid cysts were identified, each with different treatment challenges.
research Silk secretion from tarantula feet revisited: alleged spigots are probably chemoreceptors
Tarantula feet likely have chemoreceptors, not silk-producing parts.
research Activation of the Notch pathway in the hair cortex leads to aberrant differentiation of the adjacent hair-shaft layers
Notch pathway activation causes abnormal hair layer development.
research Molecular Regulatory Mechanisms in Chicken Feather Follicle Morphogenesis
The document concludes that various signaling pathways and genetic factors are crucial for chicken feather development, affecting poultry quality.
research K6irs1, K6irs2, K6irs3, and K6irs4 Represent the Inner-Root-Sheath-Specific Type II Epithelial Keratins of the Human Hair Follicle1
Four specific keratins in hair follicles help understand hair structure and function.
research Role of the nail and dorsoventral patterning in regeneration
Nails are essential for fingertip regeneration.
research Enrichment for Living Murine Keratinocytes from the Hair Follicle Bulge with the Cell Surface Marker CD34
CD34 is a marker for isolating stem-like cells in mouse hair follicles.

research LB1081 Three-dimensional imaging of tight junction-network across multiple layers of human epidermis by array tomography using backscattered electron-mode scanning electron microscopy
The study found that tight junctions reach the top layer of the skin's stratum granulosum, not just the second top layer as previously thought.
research The Fate of Epidermal Tight Junctions in the stratum corneum: Their Involvement in the Regulation of Desquamation and Phenotypic Expression of Certain Skin Conditions
Tight junctions help control skin shedding and may be targets for treating certain skin conditions.
