270-300 / 1000+ resultsresearch Co-factors of LIM domains (Clims/Ldb/Nli) regulate corneal homeostasis and maintenance of hair follicle stem cells
Clim proteins are essential for maintaining healthy corneas and hair follicles.
research The sheep KAP8-2 gene, a new KAP8 family member that is absent in humans
Sheep have a unique gene, KAP8-2, that humans don't have, which may affect wool properties.
research Protective effect of conditioning agents on Afro‐ethnic hair chemically treated with thioglycolate‐based straightening emulsion
Conditioning agents, especially jojoba oil and lauryl PEG/PPG-18/18 methicone, protect and strengthen chemically straightened Afro-ethnic hair.
research The Vitamin D Receptor Is Required for Mouse Hair Cycle Progression but not for Maintenance of the Epidermal Stem Cell Compartment
Vitamin D Receptor is needed for hair growth in mice but not for skin stem cell maintenance.
research Problems in evaluating chronic toxicity of contraceptive steroids in dogs
High doses of some contraceptive steroids cause health issues in dogs, but their relevance to humans is unclear.
research Metabolomic analysis of amino acids and lipids in human hair altered by dyeing, perming and bleaching
Chemical treatments like dyeing, perming, and bleaching damage hair by altering amino acids and lipids.
research Photoaggravation of hair aging
Sunlight exposure ages hair, making it brittle, stiff, and dry.
research Studies of the components of an oral contraceptive agent in albino rats. II. Progestogenic component and comparison of effects of the components and the combined agent
High doses of norethindrone acetate in rats caused various organ changes but didn't significantly increase tumor rates.
research Structural changes in trichocyte keratin intermediate filaments during keratinization
Keratin structure changes during keratinization, but the exact model remains uncertain.
research The Proteins of Normal and Aberrant Hair Keratins
Hair is mostly made of three protein types: helical, high-sulfur, and high-tyrosine.
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 A novel mutation in Hr causes abnormal hair follicle morphogenesis in hairpoor mouse, an animal model for Marie Unna Hereditary Hypotrichosis
A new mutation in the Hr gene causes hair loss in mice, similar to a human hair disorder.
research ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND CONTEMPORARY HUMAN HAIR COMPOSITION AND MORPHOLOGY
Mummy hair's chemical composition may not accurately show ancient people's health due to environmental contamination.
research Expression of the human Cathepsin L inhibitor hurpin in mice: skin alterations and increased carcinogenesis
Overexpression of hurpin in mice leads to abnormal skin and higher skin cancer risk.
research In utero Diagnosis of Trichothiodystrophy by Endoscopically-Guided Fetal Eyebrow Biopsy
Prenatal diagnosis of trichothiodystrophy is possible in the second trimester using fetal eyebrow biopsy, with sulfur content analysis being more reliable.

Alopecia mucinosa causes red, raised skin patches and hair loss.
research Histologic progression of acne inversa/hidradenitis suppurativa: Implications for future investigations and therapeutic intervention
Acne inversa is an epithelial-driven disease where inflammation is caused by cyst rupture, and treatments should focus on preventing tendril growth for better results.
research Betaine supplementation is less effective than methionine restriction in correcting phenotypes of CBS deficient mice
Methionine restriction works better than betaine for treating CBS deficiency symptoms in mice.
