660-690 / 1000+ results 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.
research Canine hair‐follicle keratinocytes enriched with bulge cells have the highly proliferative characteristic of stem cells
Canine hair follicles contain stem-like cells with high growth potential.
research Endogenous human skin equivalent promotes in vitro morphogenesis of follicle-like structures
Endo-HSE helps grow hair-like structures from human skin cells in the lab.
research Epigenetic control of skin and hair regeneration after wounding
Skin and hair can regenerate after injury due to changes in gene activity, with potential links to how cancer spreads. Future research should focus on how new hair follicles form and the processes that trigger their creation.
research Immunohistochemical Evaluation of Androgen Receptor and Nerve Structure Density in Human Prepuce from Patients with Persistent Sexual Side Effects after Finasteride Use for Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride, a hair loss drug, may cause long-term sexual side effects due to changes in hormone receptor levels.
research Mapping the molecular and structural specialization of the skin basement membrane for inter-tissue interactions
The skin's basement membrane has specialized structures and molecules for different tissue interactions, important for hair growth and attachment.
research Visible red light enhances physiological anagen entry in vivo and has direct and indirect stimulative effects in vitro
Red light promotes hair growth by directly stimulating hair cells and improving cell communication.
research Inhibition of Hair Growth by Testosterone in the Presence of Dermal Papilla Cells from the Frontal Bald Scalp of the Postpubertal Stumptailed Macaque1
Testosterone can slow down hair growth when combined with certain cells from bald scalps, and this effect can be blocked by an androgen receptor blocker.
research Oral syphilis: report of three cases and characterization of the inflammatory cells
The document concludes that recognizing oral lesions is important for diagnosing syphilis.
research Fibromodulin-Deficiency Alters Temporospatial Expression Patterns of Transforming Growth Factor-β Ligands and Receptors during Adult Mouse Skin Wound Healing
Mice lacking fibromodulin have disrupted healing patterns, leading to abnormal skin repair and scarring.
research Hair follicle reformation induced by dermal papilla cells from human scalp skin
Dermal papilla cells can help regrow hair follicles.
research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.
research The development of several organs and appendages is impaired in mice lacking Sp6
Mice without the Sp6 gene have problems developing several body parts, including hair, teeth, limbs, and lungs.
research The Dynamic Duo: Niche/Stem Cell Interdependency
Stem cells and their surrounding environment in hair follicles work closely together, affecting hair growth and having implications for cancer and tissue regeneration.
research Thyroxine Differentially Modulates the Peripheral Clock: Lessons from the Human Hair Follicle
Thyroxine can adjust the body's peripheral clock, potentially helping treat clock-related diseases.
research Hairless is a nuclear receptor corepressor essential for skin function
Hairless protein is crucial for healthy skin and hair, and its malfunction can cause hair loss.
research Inductive capacity of irradiated dermal papillae
The dermal papilla can still grow new hair even after heavy radiation.
research Hair Cycle-Specific Immunolocalization of Retinoic Acid Synthesizing Enzymes Aldh1a2 and Aldh1a3 Indicate Complex Regulation
The enzymes Aldh1a2 and Aldh1a3 are involved in making retinoic acid in hair follicles and have different roles in hair growth.
research Expression of morphogens during human follicle development in vivo and a model for studying follicle morphogenesis in vitro
Hair follicle development involves complex interactions between skin layers and cells, but many details are still unknown.
research Evaluating hair growth promoting effects of candidate substance: A review of research methods
The document concludes that while lab results for hair growth promotion are promising, human trials are needed and better testing methods should be developed.
research Distinct Developmental Functions of Prostasin (CAP1/PRSS8) Zymogen and Activated Prostasin
Prostasin has two roles in skin: one for normal skin development without needing activation, and another for proper hair growth that requires activation.
