research Convergent Evolution of Cysteine-Rich Keratins in Hard Skin Appendages of Terrestrial Vertebrates
Cysteine-rich keratins evolved independently in mammals, reptiles, and birds for hard skin structures like hair, claws, and feathers.
research Hair follicle and interfollicular epidermal stem cells make varying contributions to wound regeneration
Different skin stem cells help heal wounds, with hair follicle cells becoming more important over time.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Skin Epidermis
The skin protects the body and is constantly renewed by stem cells; disruptions can lead to cancer.
research Disruption of Smad4 in Mouse Epidermis Leads to Depletion of Follicle Stem Cells
Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.
research Gene Expression of Mouse S100A3, a Cysteine-Rich Calcium-Binding Protein, in Developing Hair Follicle
S100A3 protein is crucial for hair shaft formation in mice.
research Adenosine stimulates growth of dermal papilla and lengthens the anagen phase by increasing the cysteine level via fibroblast growth factors 2 and 7 in an organ culture of mouse vibrissae hair follicles
Adenosine helps hair grow longer and stronger by boosting certain growth factors and signaling pathways.
research A Monoallelic Two-Hit Mechanism in PLCD1 Explains the Genetic Pathogenesis of Hereditary Trichilemmal Cyst Formation
A specific gene change plus an additional mutation in the same gene cause hereditary trichilemmal cysts.
research Eruptive vellus hair cysts: an original case occurring in twins
Twins had rare skin cysts likely due to genetics.
research Into the redox control: N-acetyl-cysteine pleiotropic effects from the laboratory to clinical applications
N-acetyl-cysteine shows promise in treating various diseases and may improve skin and hair conditions, but more research is needed on dosages and long-term effects.
research Protein disulphide isomerase-mediated grafting of cysteine-containing peptides onto over-bleached hair
PDI helps restore over-bleached hair's strength and structure by attaching special peptides.
research Treatment of Cystathionine β-Synthase Deficiency in Mice Using a Minicircle-Based Naked DNA Vector
MC-DNA vector-based gene therapy can temporarily treat CBS deficiency in mice.
research Characterization of transport systems for cysteine, lysine, alanine, and leucine in wool follicles of sheep
Sheep wool follicles absorb different amino acids at various rates and locations, which could affect wool growth based on diet and genetics.
research Eruptive vellus hair cysts treated with lactic acid: Case report and review of the literature
Lactic acid cream can help improve skin bumps known as eruptive vellus hair cysts.
research Facial Eruptive Vellus Hair Cysts Occurred after 3% Minoxidil Application
A woman developed facial hair cysts after using a 3% minoxidil solution for hair loss, which disappeared after stopping the treatment and removing the cysts surgically.
research Advanced glycation end-products inhibit mesenchymal-epidermal interaction by up-regulating proinflammatory cytokines in hair follicles
AGEs may cause hair loss by increasing inflammation in hair follicles.
research Smad7-Induced β-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research The Rho guanosine nucleotide exchange factors Vav2 and Vav3 modulate epidermal stem cell function
Vav2 and Vav3 proteins help control skin stem cell numbers and activity in both healthy and cancerous cells.
research 918 Skin morphogenesis by coupling biochemical-bioelectric signals: Calcium oscillations coordinate dermal cell movement by epidermis-derived SHH signaling during feather bud orientation
Calcium signals and SHH guide the direction of feather growth in chicken skin.
research The arrector pili muscle, the bridge between the follicular stem cell niche and the interfollicular epidermis
The study suggests that the arrector pili muscle is important for hair health and its damage might contribute to hair loss.
research Evidence of hair loss after subacute exposure to 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide, a mustard analog, and beneficial effects ofN-acetyl cysteine
Mustard gas exposure causes hair loss, but treating with N-acetylcysteine can prevent it.
research Umbilical keratinous cyst in a 7-year-old girl: A case report
A 7-year-old girl had a non-painful skin growth at her belly button, which was removed and identified as a keratinous cyst.
research Synthesis of porcine pCLCA2 protein during late differentiation of keratinocytes of epidermis and hair follicle inner root sheath
pCLCA2 protein may help maintain skin structure and function.
research Successfully Nonsurgical Epidermoid Cyst Management with Recombinant Hydrolytic Enzymes: A Case Report

research Cyclic Alopecia and Abnormal Epidermal Cornification in Zdhhc13 -Deficient Mice Reveal the Importance of Palmitoylation in Hair and Skin Differentiation
The enzyme DHHC13 is essential for healthy hair and skin, and its deficiency leads to hair loss and skin problems.
research Preparing the hair follicle canal for hair shaft emergence
A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.
