390-420 / 1000+ results research A retrospective review of hyperaesthetic leucotrichia in horses in the USA
Hyperaesthetic leucotrichia in horses causes painful, recurring skin lesions and hair color changes, especially in Arabian and American paint horses.
research Hair matrix germinative epidermal cells confer follicle-inducing capabilities on dermal sheath and high passage papilla cells
Hair growth can be stimulated by combining certain skin cells, which can rejuvenate old cells and cause them to specialize in hair follicle creation.
research The Krüppel-like Factor Epiprofin Is Expressed by Epithelium of Developing Teeth, Hair Follicles, and Limb Buds and Promotes Cell Proliferation
Epiprofin helps cells grow in developing teeth, hair, and limbs.
research A model system to analyse the ability of human keratinocytes to form hair follicles
Scientists developed a system to study human hair growth using skin cells, which could help understand hair development and improve skin substitutes for medical use.
research Molecular and spatial design of early skin development
The research reveals how early embryonic mouse skin develops from simple to complex structures, identifying various cell types and their roles in this process.
research Two Dogs with Juvenile-Onset Skin Diseases with Involvement of Extremities
The analyses helped identify different skin diseases in the two dogs.
research Intracorneal vacuoles in skin diseases with parakeratotic hyperkeratosis in the dog: a retrospective light‐microscopy study of 111 cases (1973–2000)
Intracorneal vacuoles are common in parakeratotic skin diseases in dogs, especially with more parakeratosis.
research Characterization of Hair Follicle Bulge in Human Fetal Skin: The Human Fetal Bulge Is a Pool of Undifferentiated Keratinocytes
research Expression of keratin K14 in the epidermis and hair follicle: insights into complex programs of differentiation.
Keratin K14 expression varies between hair follicles and epidermis, affecting cell differentiation.
research Epidermal stem cell lineages
Epidermal stem cells are crucial for skin health and problems with them can cause issues like poor wound healing, cancer, and aging.
research Epidermal and hair follicle trans glutaminases and crosslinking in skin
research Hair follicle dermal cells differentiate into adipogenic and osteogenic lineages
Hair follicle cells can become fat and bone cells.
research Multifaceted role of hair follicle dermal cells in bioengineered skins
Human hair follicle dermal cells can effectively replace other cells in engineered skin.
research The in vitro Assembly of Hair Follicle Keratins: Comparison of Cortex and Companion Layer Keratins
Different conditions affect how hair proteins assemble, and certain mutations can change their structure.
research Characterization of Human KAP24.1, A Cuticular Hair Keratin-Associated Protein with Unusual Amino-Acid Composition and Repeat Structure
Scientists discovered a unique hair protein, KAP24.1, with a special structure, found only in the upper part of hair cuticles.
research Basement membrane components define the microenvironment of aggregated fibroblasts in the skin and support their aggregation in vitro
Basement membrane-like ECM supports fibroblast aggregation and cohesion.
research Ultrastructural abnormalities in the dermal papillae of both lesional and clinically normal follicles from alopecia areata scalps
Alopecia areata affects hair follicle structure, even in non-balding areas.
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 K6irs1, K6irs2, K6irs3, and K6irs4 Represent the Inner-Root-Sheath-Specific Type II Epithelial Keratins of the Human Hair Follicle1
Four specific keratins in hair follicles help understand hair structure and function.
