research INFLUENCE OF CLIPPING AND CHEMICAL EPILATION ON HAIR GROWTH IN MICE1
Certain treatments can speed up local hair growth in mice but don't change the overall hair growth pattern.
research LB1609 The evolutionary trajectory of primate skin appendage traits
Humans evolved to have less hair and more sweat glands than chimpanzees and macaques.
research Keratin Expression Provides Novel Insight into the Morphogenesis and Function of the Companion Layer in Hair Follicles
Keratin patterns in hair follicles help understand hair growth and potential hair and nail disorders.
research Variations of Hair Follicle Size and Distribution in Different Body Sites
Hair follicle size and distribution vary significantly across different body sites.
research Hair distribution width – a novel trichoscopy parameter for hair miniaturization in androgenetic alopecia
New method, hair distribution width (HDW), improves accuracy in diagnosing androgenetic alopecia (AGA).
research Ultrastructural Localization and Quantification of Extracellular Calcium Binding Sites in Mouse Vibrissa and Human Scalp Follicles
Hair growth drugs and epidermal growth factor do not change the calcium binding site gradient in hair follicles.
research Transient agonism of the sonic hedgehog pathway triggers a permanent transition of skin appendage fate in the chicken embryo
Activating the sonic hedgehog pathway in chicken embryos can permanently change scales to feathers.
research Avaliação quantitativa em cortes histológicos transversais do couro cabeludo
The study found average numbers for different types of hair follicles in the scalp and observed differences between men and women, suggesting reasons for more common hair shedding in women.
research The Hair Shedding Visual Scale: A Quick Tool to Assess Hair Loss in Women
The new visual scale is a quick and effective way to measure hair loss in women.
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 0882 Patterning and regional specification of hairy skin
Secreted inhibitors of Wnt and IGF signaling control hair and tooth development, creating species-specific patterns.
research Application of single hair fibre tensile measurements to create an industry‐standard heat damage scale for hair
A new 6-point scale reliably measures heat damage to hair from styling tools.
research The structure of the cornified claw sheath in the domesticated cat (Felis catus): implications for the claw‐shedding mechanism and the evolution of cornified digital end organs
Cat claws stay sharp by shedding their outer layer through microcracks formed during activities.
research Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, leading to their unique scales and skin features.
research Special issue on epidermal and hair follicle differentiation, part 2
research TARSAL CONTACT CHEMOSENSORY HAIRS OF THE LARGE WHITE BUTTERFLY PIERIS BRASSICAE AND THEIR POSSIBLE RÔLE IN OVIPOSITION BEHAVIOUR
B-type hairs on female butterfly legs help them choose where to lay eggs.
research Modulation of sonic hedgehog, patched and patched-2 expression by epidermal growth factor signaling in mouse hair follicle formation
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 Hair cycle and dermic follicular volume of the wild rodent, agouti (Dasyprocta prymnolopha), raised in captivity, in the northeast region of Brazil
Agoutis in captivity have more resting (telogen) hairs than growing (anagen) hairs, regardless of season or gender.
research Characterization of sciellin, a precursor to the cornified envelope of human keratinocytes
Sciellin is a protein that helps form protective layers in skin, hair, and nails.
research 1299 Live imaging of keratin network in stratum granulosum reveals dynamic cytoskeletal changes during cornification in mice in vivo
The keratin network in mouse skin changes during cornification and affects the skin's protective barrier.
research Ultrastructural localization of hair keratin homologs in the claw of the lizard Anolis carolinensis
Lizard claws have hair-like keratins similar to those in mammals.
research Cross‐linked features of mouse pelage hair resistant to detergent extraction
Two mouse mutants have defective hair cuticle cross-linking.
research The ultrastructure of the interfollicular epidermis of the hairless (hr/hr) mouse
research The surface and internal features of pubic hair: A comparative study with those of scalp hair
Pubic hair has a thicker, more protective outer layer than scalp hair, possibly due to evolution.
research 1 The regulatory biology of the human pilosebaceous unit
Scientists now better understand how human hair growth is controlled, including the roles of specific genes and proteins.
