research Identification of hair shaft progenitors that create a niche for hair pigmentation
Scientists found cells in hair that are key for growth and color.
research Investigation of hair shaft in seborrheic dermatitis using atomic force microscopy
Hair from people with seborrheic dermatitis is thicker scaled, more damaged, and thinner than healthy hair, and atomic force microscopy can help monitor the condition.
research The hair shaft: normality, abnormality, and genetics
Hair microscopy is useful for diagnosing hair disorders, but clear definitions are needed for accurate genetic analysis.
research Paracrine Secreted Frizzled-Related Protein 4 Inhibits Melanocytes Differentiation in Hair Follicle
A protein called sFRP4 from skin cells stops the development of pigment-producing cells in hair.
research Alterations in Hair Follicle Morphology and Hair Shaft Production After Follicular Unit Transplantation
Hair transplants can make hair follicles larger and hair shafts thicker.
research Hair shaft miRNA ‐221 levels as a new tumor marker of malignant melanoma
Hair shaft miR-221 levels can help detect malignant melanoma.
research Correction of Hair Shaft Defects through Allele-Specific Silencing of Mutant Krt75
Using special RNA to target a mutant gene fixed hair problems in mice.
research Preparing the hair follicle canal for hair shaft emergence
A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.
research Cysteine and Glutamine level in hair shaft fractures patients
Cysteine strengthens hair, and glutamine fuels hair growth.
research Age-related changes in the hair follicle and hair shaft in women in the parietal region
As women age, hair follicles decrease in number and hair width tends to reduce.
research The co-expression pattern of VEGFR-2 with indicators related to proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation of anagen hair follicles
VEGFR-2 activation is likely involved in hair follicle growth, survival, and development.
research 1376 Dermal white adipose tissue enhances proliferation, pigmentation and hair shaft elongation in human hair follicles ex vivo
Fat under the skin can help hair grow longer, darker, and increase cell growth.
research Androgens modify Wnt agonists/antagonists expression balance in dermal papilla cells preventing hair follicle stem cell differentiation in androgenetic alopecia
Androgens prevent hair growth by changing Wnt signals in cells.
research Mechanotransductive Differentiation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells Derived from Aged Eyelid Skin into Corneal Endothelial-Like Cells
Hair follicle stem cells from aged eyelid skin can become corneal endothelial-like cells for potential eye treatments.
research 1330 Flexible fate determination ensures robust differentiation in the skin hair follicle
Hair follicle stem cells can change their role to ensure proper hair development.
research Androgens downregulate BMP2 impairing the inductive role of dermal papilla cells on hair follicle stem cells differentiation
Androgens reduce BMP2, which weakens the ability of certain cells to help hair stem cells become different types of cells.
research Hair follicle stem cell differentiation is inhibited through cross‐talk between Wnt/β‐catenin and androgen signalling in dermal papilla cells from patients with androgenetic alopecia
Androgens block hair growth by disrupting cell signals; targeting GSK-3 may help treat hair loss.
research Localisation of members of the notch system and the differentiation of vibrissa hair follicles: Receptors, ligands, and fringe modulators
Notch-related genes play a key role in the development and cycling of hair follicles.
research Complex Changes in the Apoptotic and Cell Differentiation Programs during Initiation of the Hair Follicle Response to Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy causes complex changes in hair follicle cells that can lead to hair loss.
research Plucked Human Hair Shafts and Biomolecular Medical Research
Human hair follicles may provide a noninvasive way to diagnose diseases and have potential in regenerative medicine.
research Human basal cell carcinoma: the induction of anagen hair follicle differentiation
Basal cell carcinomas may differentiate similarly to hair follicles and could be influenced by hair cycle-related treatments.
research Ultrastructural Localization of Hair Keratins in Human Scalp Hair Shafts as Revealed by Rapid-Freezing Immunocytochemistry.
Hair keratins are mainly on macrofibrils in the cortex and in the endocuticle in the cuticle.
research Unzipping the cuticle of the human hair shaft to obtain micron/nano keratin filaments
Researchers extracted tiny keratin filaments from human hair by unzipping its outer layer.
research Naked Hair Shafts as a Marker of Cicatricial Alopecia
Naked hair shafts are significantly associated with scarring hair loss and may help diagnose it, especially when multiple are found.
research The genetics of hair shaft disorders
The article explains the genetic causes and symptoms of various hair disorders and highlights the need for more research to find treatments.
research Erythropoietin promotes hair shaft growth in cultured human hair follicles and modulates hair growth in mice
Erythropoietin helps hair grow and could be a potential treatment for hair loss.
research The transcriptional repressor CDP (Cutl1) is essential for epithelial cell differentiation of the lung and the hair follicle
CDP is crucial for lung and hair follicle cell development.
research Exosomal Micro RNAs Derived from Dermal Papilla Cells Mediate Hair Follicle Stem Cell Proliferation and Differentiation
Exosomes from dermal papilla cells help hair growth by making hair follicle stem cells multiply and change.
research Control of Human Hair Growth by Neurotrophins: Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Inhibits Hair Shaft Elongation, Induces Catagen, and Stimulates Follicular Transforming Growth Factor β2 Expression
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) slows down hair growth and promotes hair follicle regression.
