research Development and Homeostasis of the Skin Epidermis
The skin protects the body and is constantly renewed by stem cells; disruptions can lead to cancer.
research The cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system: securing a place under the sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research Fine structure of marsupial hairs, with emphasis on trichohyalin and the structure of the inner root sheath
Marsupial hair structure and keratin distribution are similar to placental mammals.
research Discrete Nanoscale Distribution of Hair Lipids Fails to Provide Humidity Resistance
Hair lipids do not protect against humidity.
research The surface and internal features of pubic hair: A comparative study with those of scalp hair
Pubic hair has a thicker, more protective outer layer than scalp hair, possibly due to evolution.
research Cultured dermal papilla cells from androgen-dependent human hair follicles (e.g. beard) contain more androgen receptors than those from non-balding areas of scalp
Beard hair follicles have more androgen receptors than non-balding scalp hair follicles.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research THE BIOLOGY OF HAIR CARE
Better hair care products are needed to protect against grooming and chemical damage.
research Hair Keratin
research Interferon β Secreted from Human Hair Dermal Papilla Cells Inhibits the Growth of Outer Root Sheath Cells Cultured in Vitro
Interferon β from hair cells stops the growth of other hair cells.
research 546 Epidermal growth factor receptor as a key regulator of the immune privilege
EGFR is crucial for preventing hair follicle inflammation and hair loss.
research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research Genomic Characterization of the Human Type I Cuticular Hair Keratin hHa2 and Identification of an Adjacent Novel Type I Hair Keratin Gene hHa5
research Hair removal and bioavailability of chemicals: Effect of physicochemical properties of drugs and surfactants on skin permeation ex vivo
Hair removal methods damage the skin barrier and affect substance penetration.
research Epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors and hair
research Physiological roles of hair structural protein: a possible application of keratin-associated proteins to new hair growing ingredient
research Epidermal differentiation: The role of proteases and their inhibitors
Balanced protease activity is crucial for healthy skin and hair development.
research Vibrissa hair bulge houses two populations of skin epithelial stem cells distinct by their keratin profile
There are two types of stem cells in rodent hair follicles, each with different keratin proteins.
research Type 2 innate immunity regulates hair follicle homeostasis to control Demodex pathosymbionts
A specific immune response helps control mite populations on the skin, maintaining healthy hair follicles.
research Bound on the Risk for M-SVMs
The enzyme system in hair follicles is similar to the liver's and is inhibited by certain substances.
research Establishment of keratinocyte cell lines from human hair follicles
Scientists created keratinocyte cell lines from human hair that can differentiate similarly to normal skin cells, offering a new way to study skin biology and diseases.
research The Functional Organization of Cutaneous Low-Threshold Mechanosensory Neurons
Different hair follicles in the skin are innervated by unique combinations of mechanosensory neurons, crucial for touch sensation.
research 3D Modelling for Solar Erythemal UV Protection Provided by Human Hair
Human hair provides more UV protection when aligned and at higher angles, but the scalp still gets UV exposure.
research Deimination and Peptidylarginine Deiminases in Skin Physiology and Diseases
PADs are crucial for healthy skin and hair, and their imbalance can cause skin and hair disorders.
research The cell biology of human hair follicle pigmentation
We need more research on human hair follicle pigmentation, not just mouse models.
research Penetration of drugs through skin, a complex rate-controlling membrane
The skin is a complex barrier for drug penetration, but understanding its structure and interactions can improve drug delivery methods.
research Hair-follicle dermal papilla and sheath fibroblasts provide a supportive microenvironment for human skin regeneration
Certain cells around hair follicles help improve skin regeneration for potential use in skin grafts.
research Topobiology of Human Pigmentation: P-Cadherin Selectively Stimulates Hair Follicle Melanogenesis
P-cadherin is crucial for hair follicle pigmentation but not skin pigmentation.
research Localization of Merkel cells at hairless and hairy human skin sites using keratin 18
Merkel cells are more densely found in hairless skin areas like palms and soles.
