660-690 / 1000+ resultsresearch Functions of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptors (PPAR) in skin homeostasis
PPARs help regulate skin health and could be used to treat skin disorders.
research Penetration and Local Effect of Vitamin A on the Skin of the Guinea Pig.,
Vitamin A penetrates guinea pig skin quickly in alcohol, affects skin thickness, but doesn't impact hair growth.
research The inductive effect of ginsenoside F2 on hair growth by altering the WNT signal pathway in telogen mouse skin
Ginsenoside F2 from ginseng may increase hair growth better than standard treatments by affecting cell growth signals.
research Single-Cell RNA Profiling of Human Skin Reveals Age-Related Loss of Dermal Sheath Cells and Their Contribution to a Juvenile Phenotype
Aging reduces dermal sheath cells, affecting youthful skin appearance.
research Human TSC2-null fibroblast-like cells induce hair follicle neogenesis and hamartoma morphogenesis
Cells from a skin condition can create new hair follicles and similar growths in mice, and a specific treatment can reduce these effects.
research Ribonucleotide Excision Repair Is Essential to Prevent Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Skin
Fixing DNA errors is crucial to prevent skin cancer.
research Cutaneous consequences of inhibiting EGF receptor signaling in vivo: Normal hair follicle development, but retarded hair cycle induction and inhibition of adipocyte growth in EgfrWa5 mice
Reduced EGFR signaling delays hair cycle and reduces fat growth, but hair development remains normal.
research Histopathological and Ultrastructural Study of Ectodermal Dysplasia/Skin Fragility Syndrome
The study concluded that PKP1 is essential for skin integrity and hair growth, and its dysfunction causes the symptoms of ectodermal dysplasia/skin fragility syndrome.
research Formation of surface membranes in developing mammalian hair fibres
Mature hair surfaces are formed by keratinized cells with developed layers, not just modified plasma membranes.
research Integral Lipid in Human Hair Follicle
The lipid in human hair follicles acts as a barrier, similar to the skin's lipid layer.
research Studies of androgen metabolism and action in cultured hair and skin cells
Androgens don't directly affect hair cell growth or protein production.
research Mechanism of TAp73 inhibition by ΔNp63 and structural basis of p63/p73 hetero-tetramerization
ΔNp63α stops TAp73β from working in skin cancer by blocking its access to specific genes, not by directly interacting with it.
research The focal adhesion protein PINCH-1 associates with EPLIN at integrin adhesion sites
PINCH-1 is crucial for skin cell adhesion and movement, working with EPLIN and ILK.
research Microarray analysis of androgenetic and senescent alopecia: Comparison of gene expression shows two distinct profiles
The conclusion is that androgenetic alopecia and senescent alopecia have unique gene changes, suggesting different causes and potential treatments for these hair loss types.
research Suppression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling by EGF receptor is required for hair follicle development
Blocking Wnt/β-catenin signaling with EGF receptor is necessary for proper hair growth.
research Inherited disorders of the skin in human and mouse: from development to differentiation.
Research on skin disorders in humans and mice has improved understanding of hair and skin development.
research BMP2-mediated PTEN enhancement promotes differentiation of hair follicle stem cells by inducing autophagy
BMP2 helps hair follicle stem cells become specialized by increasing PTEN, which causes autophagy.
research Live imaging reveals chromatin compaction transitions and dynamic transcriptional bursting during stem cell differentiation in vivo
Stem cell differentiation involves gradual chromatin changes and dynamic gene activity.
research Cellular localization of retinoic acid receptor-gamma expression in normal and neoplastic skin.
RAR-gamma 1 is important for normal skin maintenance and differentiation.
research Multifunctional Merkel cells: Their roles in electromagnetic reception, finger-print formation, Reiki, epigenetic inheritance and hair form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research Pmg-1 and Pmg-2 constitute a novel family of KAP genes differentially expressed during skin and mammary gland development
Pmg-1 and Pmg-2 are new genes important for skin and mammary gland development.
research Fetuin-A: A Major Fetal Serum Protein that Promotes “Wound Closure” and Scarless Healing
