research Involucrin, but not filaggrin and Kdap mRNA, expression is downregulated in 3-D cultures of intact rat hair bulbs after calcium stimulation
Calcium reduces involucrin in rat hair bulbs but doesn't affect filaggrin and Kdap.
research The swelling behaviour of hair studied through the structural change of keratin protein during the permanent waving treatment
Hair structure changes immediately during perm treatment, with initial damage partially restored later.
research Systematic analysis of somatic mutations driving cancer: uncovering functional protein regions in disease development
A new method, iSiMPRe, effectively identifies key protein regions in cancer genes, highlighting potential drug targets.
research The Fate of Trichohyalin
Trichohyalin is modified by enzymes to form strong structures in hair cells.
research Injectable Photocuring Silk Fibroin-Based Hydrogel Constructs Antioxidant Microenvironment for Skin Repair
The hydrogel helps skin heal faster and better than a commercial dressing by creating a protective environment and supporting new blood vessel and hair growth.
research Proteomic Analysis of Single Hairs
Hair proteins are complex and provide valuable genetic and biological information.
research Hedgehog signaling reprograms hair follicle niche fibroblasts to a hyper-activated state
Overactivating Hedgehog signaling makes hair follicle cells in mice grow hair faster and create more follicles.
research Deciphering the pathogenesis of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
Mutations in the PADI3 gene may cause central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in women of African ancestry.
research 284 Deciphering the pathogenesis of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
CCCA in women of African ancestry may be caused by PADI3 gene mutations and intense hair grooming.
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.

Pal-KCV peptide strengthens hair and reduces breakage by up to 52%.
research Chemical bonds and hair behaviour—A review
Disulfide bonds are crucial for hair's strength, especially when wet.
research Adsorption of Diclofenac and PFBS on a Hair Keratin Dimer
Human hair keratin might be good for filtering out harmful substances from water.
research Author response: Human biallelic MFN2 mutations induce mitochondrial dysfunction, upper body adipose hyperplasia, and suppression of leptin expression
MFN2 mutations cause mitochondrial problems, leading to more upper body fat and lower leptin levels.
research Decision letter: Human biallelic MFN2 mutations induce mitochondrial dysfunction, upper body adipose hyperplasia, and suppression of leptin expression
MFN2 mutations cause mitochondrial problems, unusual fat distribution, and low leptin despite high body fat.
research The biology and genetics of curly hair
Curly hair is influenced by specific genetic variations.
research Transglutaminase-3 Enzyme: A Putative Actor in Human Hair Shaft Scaffolding?
TGase 3 helps build hair structure by forming strong bonds between proteins.
research Binding Interactions of Keratin-Based Hair Fiber Extract to Gold, Keratin, and BMP-2
Keratin from hair binds well to gold and BMP-2, useful for bone repair.
research Non-viral delivery of the CRISPR/Cas system: DNAversusRNAversusRNP
RNA delivery is best for in-body use, while RNP delivery is good for outside-body use. Both methods are expected to greatly impact future treatments.
research Identification of novel glucocorticoid receptor-regulated genes involved in epidermal homeostasis and hair follicle differentiation
Glucocorticoid receptors help regulate genes important for skin health and hair growth.
