research To grow or not to grow: Hair morphogenesis and human genetic hair disorders
Genetic mutations can cause hair growth disorders by affecting key genes and signaling pathways.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research Recently Identified Forms of Epidermolysis Bullosa
Three new types of a skin blistering disease were found, caused by specific gene mutations.
research Knock-Down of Arabidopsis PLC5 Reduces Primary Root Growth and Secondary Root Formation While Overexpression Improves Drought Tolerance and Causes Stunted Root Hair Growth
Changing the amount of PLC5 in Arabidopsis affects root growth and drought resistance, with less PLC5 slowing root growth and more PLC5 improving drought tolerance but hindering root hair growth.
research Transcriptome and proteome characterization of surface ectoderm cells differentiated from human iPSCs
Blocking TGFβ-RI signaling enhances surface ectoderm differentiation from human stem cells.
research Planar cell polarity-dependent and independent functions in the emergence of tissue-scale hair follicle patterns
Mice can correct hair follicle orientation without certain genes, but proper overall alignment needs those genes.
research Sex hormones modulate pathogenic processes in experimental traumatic brain injury
Sex hormones affect brain injury differently in males and females.
research Arabinogalactan proteins are involved in root hair development in barley
Certain proteins are essential for the growth of root hairs in barley.
research The Hair Follicle: An Underutilized Source of Cells and Materials for Regenerative Medicine
Hair follicles are valuable for regenerative medicine and wound healing.
research Thymosin β4 Promotes Dermal Healing

research Phosphatidylinositol‐specific phospholipase C2 functions in auxin‐modulated root development
A protein called PLC2 is important for the growth and development of plant roots influenced by auxin.
research KERATINS AND SKIN DISORDERS
Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.
research A role for the Tgf-β/Bmp co-receptor Endoglin in the molecular oscillator that regulates the hair follicle cycle
Endoglin is crucial for proper hair growth cycles and stem cell activation in mice.
research Expression and function of nuclear receptor co-activator 4: evidence of a potential role independent of co-activator activity
NcoA4 may have roles beyond helping control gene activity, possibly affecting cell behavior and stability.
research The Significance of NOTCH Pathway in the Development of Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis
Blocking the NOTCH pathway can prevent fibrosis in systemic sclerosis.
research ILK modulates epithelial polarity and matrix formation in hair follicles
ILK is essential for proper hair follicle development and structure.

A rare gene variant causes hair and nail issues in a family.
research The TOR–Auxin Connection Upstream of Root Hair Growth
High energy boosts root hair growth in plants, while low energy stops it.
research Angiogenin is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and stimulates hair growth
Angiogenin helps hair grow by stimulating cell growth and blood vessel formation.
research Cytokine loaded layer-by-layer ultrathin matrices to deliver single dermal papilla cells for spot-by-spot hair follicle regeneration
Scientists have created a method to deliver specific cells that can regenerate hair follicles, potentially offering a new treatment for hair loss.
research Regulation of Hair Shedding by the Type 3 IP3 Receptor
