research Molecular Genetics of Alopecias
Scientists have found specific genes linked to different hair loss conditions, which could lead to new treatments.
research KERATINS AND SKIN DISORDERS
Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.
research What should it take to describe a substance or product as 'sperm-safe'

research A Case Report of Werner’s Syndrome With a Novel Mutation From India
A new genetic mutation causing Werner's syndrome was found in an Indian man.
research Progress in the design of ascorbic acid derivative-mediated drug delivery
Ascorbic acid derivatives improve drug delivery systems.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Clinical and molecular genetic studies in hereditary hair loss
Researchers found a genetic link for hereditary hair loss but need more analysis to identify the exact gene.
research Vitamin D receptor: molecular signaling and actions of nutritional ligands in disease prevention
Vitamin D receptor interacts with certain dietary components to help prevent diseases and regulate hair growth.
research Autosomal Recessive Transmission of a Rare KRT74 Variant Causes Hair and Nail Ectodermal Dysplasia: Allelism with Dominant Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis
A rare gene variant causes hair and nail issues in a family.
research Deficiency of the human cysteine protease inhibitor cystatin M/E causes hypotrichosis and dry skin
Lack of cystatin M/E causes thin hair and dry skin.
research Taming of Covid-19: potential and emerging application of mesenchymal stem cells
Mesenchymal stem cells show promise in treating COVID-19 by reducing inflammation and aiding recovery, but more research is needed.
research RSL4 regulatory network acts as an early driver of root hair growth at low temperature in Arabidopsis thaliana
A gene network led by RSL4 is crucial for early root hair growth in response to cold in Arabidopsis thaliana.
research SbbHLH85, a bHLH Member, Modulates Resilience to Salt Stress By Regulating Root Hair Growth in Sweet Sorghum
The SbbHLH85 protein helps sweet sorghum grow more root hairs but makes the plant more sensitive to salt.
research Guía de Procedimientos en Cirugía Plástica Reconstructiva Vol. 4

research Acidic and basic hair/nail ("hard") keratins: their colocalization in upper cortical and cuticle cells of the human hair follicle and their relationship to "soft" keratins.
Hair and nail cells share similar proteins, indicating a common differentiation pathway.
research K ATP Channels and Cardiovascular Disease
K_ATP channel gene mutations are linked to heart diseases, but more research is needed to understand the connection and treatment potential.
research Primary Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance and Hypersensitivity
The conclusion is that genetic changes in the glucocorticoid receptor can lead to conditions affecting stress response, immunity, and metabolism, requiring personalized treatment.
research Reduction mechanism of L ‐cysteine on keratin fibers using microspectrophotometry and Raman spectroscopy
L-cysteine slows down the breaking of bonds in hair due to electrostatic interactions.

Friesian heifers take about 18 months to adapt to Kenya's climate, with hair changes not strongly linked to weight gain.
research The new paradigm for androgenetic alopecia and plant-based folk remedies: 5α-reductase inhibition, reversal of secondary microinflammation and improving insulin resistance
Plant-based remedies may treat hair loss by reducing inflammation and improving insulin resistance.
research Cellular therapeutics and immunotherapies in wound healing – on the pulse of time?
Cellular and immunotherapies show promise for healing chronic wounds but need more research.
