research Characterization of hair lipid and protein dynamics using EPR spectroscopy and treatment effects
Hair treatments and dehydration affect hair's lipid and protein behavior, influencing its flexibility and appearance.
research Comparison of stratum corneum penetration and localization of a lipophilic model drug applied in an o/w microemulsion and an amphiphilic cream
The microemulsion delivered the dye deeper into the skin than the cream.
research Conditioned media obtained from human outer root sheath follicular keratinocyte culture activates signalling pathways that contribute to maintenance of hair-inducing capacity and increases trichogenicity of cultured dermal cells
The substance from human hair root cells can help maintain hair growth and make skin cells more capable of growing hair.
research 53003 HARNESSING BIOTECHNOLOGICALLY DERIVED ACTIVES FOR SKIN BARRIER RESTORATION IN COMPROMISED SKIN PATIENTS
Natural extracts like kombucha, marine enzymes, and prebiotics can improve and restore damaged skin.
research The effect of treatments on the shear modulus of human hair measured by the single fiber torsion pendulum.
Different treatments change the strength and flexibility of human hair.
research Keratinocytes maintain compartmentalization between dermal papilla and fibroblasts in 3D heterotypic tri‐cultures
Keratinocytes help keep hair follicle cells and skin cells separate in 3D cultures, which is important for hair growth research.
research The adsorption behavior of cationic surfactant onto human hair fibers
A certain surfactant sticks to human hair, making it change from water-repelling to water-attracting, which could help in hair conditioning.
research The Story of the Finest Armor: Developmental Aspects of Reptile Skin
Reptile skin protects and prevents water loss, helping them adapt to land.
research The targeted overexpression of a Claudin mutant in the epidermis of transgenic mice elicits striking epidermal and hair follicle abnormalities
research Primary cilia regulate Meibomian glands development and dimensions without impairing lipid composition of the meibum
Primary cilia affect the size and oil production of eye glands but not the oil's makeup.
research Dual-Action Icariin-Containing Thermosensitive Hydrogel for Wound Macrophage Polarization and Hair-Follicle Neogenesis
The gel with icariin speeds up wound healing, reduces scarring, and helps hair growth by controlling BMP4 signaling. It also reduces inflammation and improves wound quality in mice, adapts to different wound shapes, and gradually releases icariin to aid healing. It also prevents too much collagen and myofibroblast formation during skin healing.
research Moist exposed burn ointment accelerates diabetes-related wound healing by promoting re-epithelialization
Moist Exposed Burn Ointment speeds up healing of diabetic wounds.
research Comparative Characterization of Human Meibomian Glands, Free Sebaceous Glands, and Hair-Associated Sebaceous Glands Based on Biomarkers, Analysis of Secretion Composition, and Gland Morphology
Meibomian glands are highly specialized and differ significantly from other sebaceous glands in structure and function.
research Morphogenesis of the antenna of the male silkmoth. Antheraea polyphemus, III. Development of olfactory sensilla and the properties of hair-forming cells
The male silkmoth's antenna develops olfactory structures over 21 days, with full hair formation by day 15.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research 1301 STIM1, but not STIM2, is the calcium sensor critical for sweat secretion
STIM1 is essential for sweat secretion.
research Gross morphology and ultrastructural characterization of the skin in Yuyi hairless mice(Mus musculus)
Yuyi hairless mice lose hair after birth, develop thick, loose skin with folds, and show disorganized skin structure as they age.
research Human hair follicle cells of outer root sheath maintain their genuine keratin expression in vitro
research Mechanical stiffness across skin layers in human: a pilot study
The epidermis is the stiffest skin layer.
research La campana, patrimonio sonoro y lenguaje tradicional: la Colección Quintana en Urueña
The extracellular matrix is crucial for maintaining and regulating epidermal stem cells in hair follicles.
research ‘Plica neuropathica’: Matting of Hair
A girl's severely tangled hair couldn't be fixed and had to be cut due to a rare condition called plica neuropathica.
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 The Effect of Hydration on the Mechanical Behaviour of Hair
research Structural changes in hair follicles and sebaceous glands of hairless mice following exposure to sulfur mustard
Sulfur mustard damages hair follicles and sebaceous glands in 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 Clinical Snippets
Glycerol may improve wound healing and prevent keloids, a device can measure itch intensity, male pattern baldness is highly heritable, and fumaric acid esters may work for psoriasis by causing cell death in T cells.
research Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Stabilizes Hemidesmosomes in Keratinocytes
Wnt/β-catenin signaling is important for keeping skin cell attachment structures stable.
research Characterisation of cell cycle arrest and terminal differentiation in a maximally proliferative human epithelial tissue: Lessons from the human hair follicle matrix
CIP/KIP proteins help stop cell division and support hair growth.
research Ceramide synthase 4 deficiency in mice causes lipid alterations in sebum and results in alopecia
Ceramide synthase 4 deficiency in mice leads to hair loss due to altered sebum lipids.
