Hair microscopy is a simple and cost-effective method to help diagnose systemic diseases in children.
research Bexxar, iodine I 131 tositumomab, Effective in Long Term Follow-up of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Bexxar is highly effective as a first treatment for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, with most patients alive and many in remission after eight years.
research Production and characterization of human hair keratin bioplastic films with novel plasticizers
Human hair was used to make biodegradable plastic films that could be useful for packaging and disposable products.
research Drought-induced SlCLE10 coordinates ethylene biosynthesis and root hair development to confer osmotic stress tolerance in tomato
Overexpressing SlCLE10 in tomatoes boosts root hair growth and drought tolerance.
research CPK1 activates CNGCs through phosphorylation for Ca2+ signaling to promote root hair growth in Arabidopsis
CPK1 helps root hair growth in Arabidopsis by activating channels for calcium signaling.
research Fifteen-minute consultation: Approach to the adolescent presenting with hirsutism
Hirsutism in teens is often due to polycystic ovarian syndrome and needs careful assessment and support.
research Decision letter: Hair follicle epidermal stem cells define a niche for tactile sensation
Hair follicle stem cells are crucial for touch sensation and proper nerve structure in mice.
research Three-dimensional reconstructions of mechanosensory end organs suggest a unifying mechanism underlying dynamic, light touch
Dynamic, light touch is sensed through a common mechanism involving Piezo2 channels in sensory axons.
research Paracrine TGF-β Signaling Counterbalances BMP-Mediated Repression in Hair Follicle Stem Cell Activation
TGF-β2 helps activate hair follicle stem cells by counteracting BMP signals.
research The Basement Membrane of Hair Follicle Stem Cells Is a Muscle Cell Niche
Nephronectin helps attach muscle cells to hair follicles.
research APCDD1 is a novel Wnt inhibitor mutated in hereditary hypotrichosis simplex
A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.
research Cutaneous complications of chemotherapeutic agents
Chemotherapy can cause skin problems like hair loss, mouth sores, and skin darkening, and recognizing these can affect treatment decisions.
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 Overexpression of Smad7 results in severe pathological alterations in multiple epithelial tissues
Too much Smad7 can cause serious changes in skin tissues, including problems with hair growth, thymus shrinkage, and eye development issues.
