750-780 / 1000+ resultsresearch c-Myc activation in transgenic mouse epidermis results in mobilization of stem cells and differentiation of their progeny
c-Myc activation in mouse skin increases sebaceous gland growth and affects hair follicle development.
research Primary Follicular Dystrophy With Scarring Dermatitis in C57BL/6 Mouse Substrains Resembles Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia in Humans
Certain mouse strains develop a skin condition similar to a human hair loss disease due to genetic defects.
research Embryonic hair follicle fate change by augmented β-catenin through Shh and Bmp signaling
β-catenin, Shh, and Bmp signaling control hair follicle development.

The Msi2 protein helps keep hair follicle stem cells inactive, controlling hair growth and regeneration.
research Mammalian-specific ectodermal enhancers control the expression of Hoxc genes in developing nails and hair follicles
HoxC genes are crucial for normal hair and nail development.
research Activating β-catenin signaling in CD133-positive dermal papilla cells increases hair inductivity
Boosting β-catenin signaling in certain skin cells can enhance hair growth.
research Conditional Knockout in Mice Reveals the Critical Roles of Ppp2ca in Epidermis Development
PP2Acα is essential for proper hair and skin development.
research Nanomaterials in hair care and treatment
Nanomaterials can improve hair care products and treatments, including hair loss and alopecia, by enhancing stability and safety, and allowing controlled release of compounds, but their safety in cosmetics needs more understanding.
research Development of Hair Fibres
research Potential use of human hair fibers for reinforcement and thermal insulation in construction
Adding human hair to cement can make it tougher and better insulated but also more porous.
research A Mouse Model for the Basal Transcription/DNA Repair Syndrome Trichothiodystrophy
Researchers created a mouse with the same mutation as humans with trichothiodystrophy, showing similar symptoms and confirming the condition is due to defects in DNA repair and gene activity.
research From regenerative dentistry to regenerative medicine: progress, challenges, and potential applications of oral stem cells
Oral stem cells show promise for tissue repair, but more human trials are needed.
research Corneodesmosin gene ablation induces lethal skin-barrier disruption and hair-follicle degeneration related to desmosome dysfunction
Deleting the CDSN gene causes severe skin and hair problems, leading to death.
research Targeted transgenic expression of the mutation causing Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome leads to proliferative and degenerative epidermal disease
The mutation causing Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome leads to severe skin problems and early death in mice.
research Advances and Innovations of 3D Bioprinting Skin
3D bioprinting shows promise for creating advanced skin for healing wounds and reducing animal testing.
research Odontogenic Keratocysts Arise from Quiescent Epithelial Rests and Are Associated with Deregulated Hedgehog Signaling in Mice and Humans
Odontogenic keratocysts are caused by abnormal Hedgehog signaling and can lead to tooth and bone issues.
research Alopecia and Associated Toxic Agents: A Systematic Review
Thallium, mercury, selenium, and colchicine strongly cause hair loss.
research Bioengineering the Hair Follicle
Bioengineering can potentially treat hair loss by regenerating hair follicles and cloning hair, but the process is complex and needs more research.
research The Autoimmune Regulator (AIRE), Which Is Defective in Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathy-Candidiasis-Ectodermal Dystrophy Patients, Is Expressed in Human Epidermal and Follicular Keratinocytes and Associates With the Intermediate Filament Protein Cytokeratin 17
AIRE protein, defective in APECED patients, is found in skin and hair cells and interacts with cytokeratin 17.
research An epistatic effect of KRT25 on SP6 is involved in curly coat in horses
The genes KRT25 and SP6 affect curly hair in horses, with KRT25 also causing hair loss. If both genes are mutated, the horse gets curly hair and hair loss. KRT25 can hide the effect of SP6.
