Research
870-900 / 1000+ results research Autosomal-Dominant Woolly Hair Resulting from Disruption of Keratin 74 (KRT74), a Potential Determinant of Human Hair Texture
A mutation in the KRT74 gene causes tightly curled hair.
research Keratinization and its Disorders
Mutations in keratin genes can cause skin and mucosa disorders.
research The Cytology and Cytochemistry of the Wool Follicle
Wool follicles are complex, involving interactions between different cell types and structures.
research Effect of discarded keratin-based biocomposite hydrogels on the wound healing process in vivo
Keratin-based hydrogels from human hair improve wound healing effectively.
research The Keratins of the Human Beard Hair Medulla: The Riddle in the Middle
Human beard hair medulla contains a unique and complex mix of keratins not found in other human tissues.
research Developmental timing of hair follicle and dorsal skin innervation in mice
Nerve growth in mouse skin and hair follicles happens in stages and is closely linked to hair development.
research Melanocyte Subpopulation Turnover During the Human Hair Cycle: An Immunohistochemical Study
Melanocyte activity in hair follicles is linked to the hair growth cycle, being active in growth phases and inactive in rest phases.
research Hair shape of curly hair
Curly hair shape is determined by the hair bulb.
research Characterization of a 300 kbp Region of Human DNA Containing the Type II Hair Keratin Gene Domain
The research identified six functional hair keratin genes and four pseudogenes, providing insights into hair formation and gene organization.
research 9 Pilosebaceous physiology in relation to hirsutism and acne
Male hormones are important for hair and oil gland development and can cause conditions like excessive hair growth and acne.
research Cutaneous Syndromes Produced as Side Effects of Triparanol Therapy
Triparanol therapy can cause hair loss and skin dryness without inflammation or damage to hair follicles or skin structures.
research Histochemical and Immunohistochemical Markers for Human Eccrine and Apocrine Sweat Glands: An Aid for Histopathologic Differentiation of Sweat Gland Tumors
Markers help differentiate between apocrine and eccrine sweat glands to identify sweat gland tumors.
research Defining the Cellular Environment in the Organ of Corti following Extensive Hair Cell Loss: A Basis for Future Sensory Cell Replacement in the Cochlea
The conclusion is that genetic differences affect how the cochlea heals after hair cell loss, which may challenge the creation of hearing loss treatments.
research The human type I keratin gene family: Characterization of new hair follicle specific members and evaluation of the chromosome 17q21.2 gene domain
The study identified and characterized new keratin genes linked to hair follicles and epithelial tissues.
research Endogenous Production of Heparin-Binding EGF-Like Growth Factor During Murine Partial-Thickness Burn Wound Healing
HB-EGF and TGF-α help heal burns by boosting skin cell growth.
research Specific receptor detection by a functional keratinocyte growth factor-immunoglobulin chimera.
A new protein was made to detect specific skin cell growth receptors and worked in normal skin but not in skin cancer cells.
research Direct Effects of Minoxidil on Epidermal Cells in Culture
Minoxidil promotes hair growth by increasing cell division and DNA synthesis.
research Nevoid Basal Cell Carcinoma Syndrome
Nevoid basal cell carcinomas start in the skin and hair follicles.
research Expression of involucrin in normal, hyperproliferative and neoplastic mouse keratinocytes
Involucrin is a useful marker for keratinocyte differentiation in mice.
research Cylindroma as Tumor of Hair Follicle Origin
Cylindromas likely originate from hair follicle stem cells, not sweat glands.
research Murine skin as a target for melatonin bioregulation
Melatonin affects mouse skin and may regulate skin functions.
research Burn Reconstruction: the Problems, the Techniques, and the Applications
Burn reconstruction improves with new techniques, materials, and tissue engineering.
research Mucocutaneous side effects of antineoplastic chemotherapy
Chemotherapy often causes hair loss, nail changes, and mouth issues, but these are usually manageable.
research Relation of Skin Polyamines to the Hairless Phenotype in Transgenic Mice Overexpressing Spermidine/Spermine N1-Acetyltransferase
Excessive putrescine causes hair loss in transgenic mice by disrupting hair follicle development.
research An immunohistochemical study of the apocrine type of cutaneous mixed tumors with special reference to their follicular and sebaceous differentiation
Apocrine type cutaneous mixed tumors often resemble hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and apocrine glands.
research Sequence Data and Chromosomal Localization of Human Type I and Type II Hair Keratin Genes
Human hair keratin genes hHa2 and hHb1 are located on chromosomes 17 and 12.
research Immunological characteristics and histological distribution of human hair fibrous proteins studied with anti-hair keratin monoclonal antibodies HKN-2, HKN-4, and HKN-6.
Some hair proteins are specific to hair, while others are also found in skin cells.
research Expression of Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptors (PPARs) in Human Hair Follicles and PPARα Involvement in Hair Growth
PPAR alpha may help in hair growth and could be a target for treatment.
research Resident Memory T Cells in Autoimmune Skin Diseases
Certain immune cells contribute to skin autoimmune diseases, and some treatments can reverse hair loss in these conditions.
