research Proteomic tools for the investigation of human hair structural proteins and evidence of weakness sites on hair keratin coil segments
Hair proteins have weak spots in their α-helical segments.
research How Does pH Fit in with Oscillating Polar Growth?
pH, calcium, and reactive oxygen species regulate plant cell growth, with key roles for NADPH oxidases and plasma membrane H+-ATPases.
research Proline-rich protein-like PRPL1 controls elongation of root hairs in Arabidopsis thaliana
A gene in Arabidopsis thaliana, AtPRPL1, affects root hair length but not cell wall composition.
research Studying SARS-CoV-2 infectivity and therapeutic responses with complex organoids
Organoids can help study COVID-19 and develop treatments, but face challenges like instability and limited renewal.
research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research Sexuality in premature ovarian insufficiency
Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) can harm women's sexual health, and they may benefit from hormone therapy and counseling.
research Melatonin promotes Cashmere goat (Capra hircus) secondary hair follicle growth: a view from integrated analysis of long non-coding and coding RNAs
Melatonin helps Cashmere goats grow more hair by affecting certain genes and cell pathways.
research Arabinogalactan proteins are involved in root hair development in barley
Certain proteins are essential for the growth of root hairs in barley.
research Elucidating the roles of three β-glucuronosyltransferases (GLCATs) acting on arabinogalactan-proteins using a CRISPR-Cas9 multiplexing approach in Arabidopsis
The study concluded that three enzymes are important for plant development by affecting sugar composition and calcium binding in plants.
research Medication-Induced Repigmentation of Gray Hair: A Systematic Review
Some medications might reverse gray hair, especially those that reduce inflammation or stimulate pigment production, and vitamin B might help.
research Candidate genes of SARS-CoV-2 gender susceptibility
Men are more affected by COVID-19 due to differences in immune responses and protein expression.
research Cardiac morphologic alterations in acute minoxidil cardiotoxicity in miniature swine
research Calcium regulation of stem cells
Calcium is important for stem cell function and maintenance, especially in blood and skin cells.
research Cholesterol homeostasis: Links to hair follicle biology and hair disorders
Cholesterol balance is important for hair health, and problems with it can lead to hair loss conditions.
research The Significance of NOTCH Pathway in the Development of Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis
Blocking the NOTCH pathway can prevent fibrosis in systemic sclerosis.
research Differential expression and functionality of ATP-binding cassette transporters in the human hair follicle
Certain transporters are found in human hair follicles and may affect hair growth and loss.
research Steroid sulfatase inhibitors
Steroid Sulfatase inhibitors show promise in treating hormone-dependent disorders like cancers, hair loss, and acne, with 667COUMATE being a potential candidate for breast cancer treatment trials.
research The Genetics of Human Skin Disease
Genetic research has advanced our understanding of skin diseases, but complex conditions require an integrative approach for deeper insight.
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 Ginsenoside F2 Reduces Hair Loss by Controlling Apoptosis through the Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein Cleavage Activating Protein and Transforming Growth Factor-β Pathways in a Dihydrotestosterone-Induced Mouse Model
Ginsenoside F2 may help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth better than finasteride.
research Roles of steroid sulfatase in brain and other tissues
Steroid sulfatase is important for activating hormones that affect memory, brain function, and certain diseases, and could be a target for treating hormone-related disorders.
research Copy number variation regions in Nellore cattle: Evidences of environment adaptation
Nellore cattle have genetic variations linked to their adaptation to tropical environments.
research Newborn infant skin gene expression: Remarkable differences versus adults
Newborn skin is uniquely prepared to adapt to new environments compared to adult skin.
research Study of seed hair growth in Populus tomentosa, an important character of female floral bud development
Poplar seed hairs grow from the placenta at the ovary base, with endoreduplication playing a key role in their development, and share similar cellulose synthesis processes with cotton fibers.
research Morphometric-stereological and functional epididymal alterations and a decrease in fertility in rats treated with finasteride and after a 30-day post-treatment recovery period
Finasteride causes lasting fertility decrease in rats.
research The Role of the Slc39a Family of Zinc Transporters in Zinc Homeostasis in Skin
Certain zinc transporters are essential for healthy skin and managing zinc in the body could help treat skin problems.
research Unusual patterns of presentation of frontal fibrosing alopecia: A clinical and trichoscopic analysis of 98 patients
