research Fibroblast heterogeneity: implications for human disease
Different types of fibroblasts play various roles in diseases and healing, and more research on them could improve treatments.
research Structural changes in the trichocyte intermediate filaments accompanying the transition from the reduced to the oxidized form
Oxidation changes the structure of hair protein filaments, causing them to compact and rearrange.
research Roles of jumonji and jumonji family genes in chromatin regulation and development
Jumonji genes are important for development and their mutations can cause abnormalities, especially in the heart and brain.
research Celsr1 and Celsr2 exhibit distinct adhesive interactions and contributions to planar cell polarity
Celsr1 is crucial for skin cell alignment, while Celsr2 has little effect on this process.
research Histochemical observations of lectin-binding sites and keratin distribution in calcifying epithelioma of Malherbe.
Tumor cells in calcifying epithelioma of Malherbe resemble hair follicle cells.
research Evo Devo of the Vertebrates Integument
The skin systems of jawed vertebrates evolved diverse appendages like hair and scales from a common structure over 420 million years ago.
research Targeting receptor–regulator interactions
New treatments for cancer and skin disorders show promise in disrupting harmful cell interactions and promoting hair growth.
research Chaperones as thermodynamic sensors
New cancer treatments show promise in reducing tumor growth and improving skin regeneration in mice.
research Tissue Mechanics in Haired Murine Skin: Potential Implications for Skin Aging
Older mice have stiffer skin with less elasticity due to changes in collagen and skin structure, affecting aging and hair loss.
