660-690 / 1000+ results research The development of cutaneous afferent pathways in fetal sheep: a structural and functional study
Fetal sheep develop skin nerve pathways and responses to touch and heat between 75 and 134 days of gestation.
research Effect of Laser and Light-Based Systems on Hair Follicle Biology
Lasers can reduce hair growth but may also damage skin.
research Corrigendum to ‘3D bioprinting of a gelatin-alginate hydrogel for tissue-engineered hair follicle regeneration’ [Acta Biomaterialia (2022)]
Corrections were made to a previous work on 3D printing a gel-alginate mix for creating hair follicles, but the main finding - that this method can help grow hair - remains the same.
research Hair shaft disorders in children – An update
Diagnosing and managing children's hair shaft disorders is challenging but essential.
research Age-related changes in the dorsal skin histology in Mini and Wistar rats.
Mini rats have thinner skin, more fat, and different hair cycles than Wistar rats due to lower growth hormone levels.
research Expression of SPARC (secreted protein acidic rich in cysteine) throughout the hair cycle in rats
SPARC likely aids in tissue remodeling during the hair cycle, not in starting new hair growth phases.
research Human Hair in Personal Identification and Documenting Drug and Substance Abuse
Human hair is valuable for identifying people and detecting drug use.
research DSC-investigations of alpha-keratins and the specific effects of chemical treatments on human hair
Chemical treatments weaken hair's thermal stability and structure.
research Hoxc13 polyglycine repeat gain-of-function drives mammalian integument evolution by altering targeted genes and interactions
The polyG fragment in Hoxc13 protein helps evolve mammalian skin and hair by enhancing gene interactions.
research Disturbed Epidermal Structure in Mice with Temporally Controlled Fatp4 Deficiency
Fatp4 is crucial for healthy skin development and function.
research Differential structural properties and expression patterns suggest functional significance for multiple mouse desmoglein 1 isoforms
Multiple mouse desmoglein 1 isoforms have distinct roles in skin and hair development.
research Study of the keratinization process in human hair follicle by X-ray microdiffraction.
Hair structure forms the same way inside and outside the body.
research Facial preservation following extreme mummification: Shrunken heads
Shrunken heads retain some facial features and hair characteristics, allowing for limited individual identification.
research Quantifying whole human hair scalp fibres of varying curl: A micro‐computed tomographic study
Human hair varies in structure based on curl type, with high curl hair showing the most differences.
research Characterization of the mechanical properties of the cortex region of human hair fibers by multiparametric Atomic Force Microscopy mapping
Atomic Force Microscopy is a more accurate way to assess hair damage and the effect of cosmetic treatments.
research Skin manifestations of chronic kidney disease
People with advanced chronic kidney disease often have skin problems, which can be treated with various medications and procedures to improve their quality of life.
research Nociceptive and Nonnociceptive Roles of TRPV3 and Its “Druggability”
TRPV3 could be a target for treating pain, skin disorders, and hair problems, but more research is needed to create effective drugs.
research Learning from hair moisture sorption and hysteresis
Hair moisture behavior helps tell apart different chemical treatments and reveals insights into hair structure.
research Dynamic changes of genomic methylation profiles at different growth stages in Chinese Tan sheep
DNA methylation changes in Tan sheep affect growth and fur traits.
research Skin, hair and beyond: the impact of menopause
Menopause causes dry skin, wrinkles, and hair changes, with hormone therapy helping but not recommended just for these issues.
research Diagnostic and predictive value of horizontal sections of scalp biopsy specimens in male pattern androgenetic alopecia
Horizontal scalp biopsy sections effectively diagnose and predict MPAA, with follicular density and inflammation impacting hair regrowth.
research Enhanced ectodysplasin-A receptor (EDAR) signaling alters multiple fiber characteristics to produce the East Asian hair form
A genetic change in the EDAR gene causes the unique hair traits found in East Asians.
research Mucocutaneous side effects of antineoplastic chemotherapy
Chemotherapy often causes hair loss, nail changes, and mouth issues, but these are usually manageable.
research Computerized morphometry and three-dimensional image reconstruction in the evaluation of scalp biopsy from patients with non-cicatricial alopecias
The study suggests computer-assisted analysis of scalp biopsies could improve hair loss diagnosis but needs more validation.
research Lichen Planopilaris-Like Changes Arising within an Epidermal Nevus: Does This Case Suggest Clues to the Etiology of Lichen Planopilaris?
Microorganism overgrowth and hyperkeratosis may trigger immune reactions causing lichen planopilaris.
research Committing to a Hairy Fate: Epigenetic Regulation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Epigenetic changes are crucial for hair follicle stem cells to function properly.
research The Rho guanosine nucleotide exchange factors Vav2 and Vav3 modulate epidermal stem cell function
Vav2 and Vav3 proteins help control skin stem cell numbers and activity in both healthy and cancerous cells.
research Correlation between changes of amino acid spectrum and alopecia in patients with obesity undergoing bariatric surgery: a prospective cohort study
Leucine levels may affect hair loss after bariatric surgery.
research Structured Oral Examinations in Internal Medicine - Case H
The structured oral exam format is effective and well-received for teaching internal medicine.
