research Fondation René Touraine
The document concluded that stem cells are crucial for skin repair, regeneration, and may help in developing advanced skin substitutes.
research Immunogenicity of Hair Proteins Containing Hard Keratins.
Human hair and nail proteins are unlikely to cause allergic reactions.
research Upcycling waste hair and feathers derived keratin into intact cortical cell-derived micro-units via periodate oxidation: Applications & life cycle assessment
Keratin from waste hair and feathers can be sustainably used to create stable emulsions for industrial applications.
research Immunolocalization of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors in Normal Developing Human Skin
research Investigating the role of keratin proteins and microbial associations in hereditary and pathogenic alopecia
research RSPO1-mutated keratinocytes from palmoplantar keratoderma display impaired differentiation, alteration of cell–cell adhesion, EMT-like phenotype and invasiveness properties: implications for squamous cell carcinoma susceptibility in patients with 46XX disorder of sexual development
RSPO1 mutations in certain patients lead to skin cells that don't develop properly and are more likely to become invasive, increasing the risk of skin cancer.
research Keratin
Understanding how keratin structures in hair are arranged and interact is key for creating methods to extract and purify them.
research Trichosporon asteroides: A novel ethiological agent of Kerion celsi in a child
A child's scalp infection was caused by a fungus not previously known to do so, but it was successfully treated.
research Planar cell polarity effector gene Intu regulates cell fate-specific differentiation of keratinocytes through the primary cilia
Intu gene is crucial for hair follicle formation by helping keratinocytes differentiate through primary cilia.
research α-parvin is required for epidermal morphogenesis, hair follicle development and basal keratinocyte polarity
α-parvin is necessary for skin and hair growth and for the correct orientation of skin cells.
research Stem Cells in Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer
Stem cells play a key role in nonmelanoma skin cancers, with different origins and genetic changes linked to basal and squamous cell carcinomas.
research Erlotinib-Induced Skin Inflammation Is IL-1 Mediated in KC-Tie2 Mice and Human Skin Organ Culture
Erlotinib causes skin inflammation through IL-1, which can be reduced by anakinra.
research 532 Unexpected expression of hemoglobin α as an endogenous antioxidant in epidermal keratinocytes
Hemoglobin α acts as an antioxidant in skin cells, especially protecting hair follicle stem cells from UV damage.
research The structure of human trichohyalin : potential multiple roles as a functional ef-hand-like calcium-binding protein, a cornified cell envelope precursor, and an intermediate filament-associated (cross-linking) protein
Trichohyalin is a versatile protein involved in hair and skin structure.
research Mutation detection of type II hair cortex keratin gene KRT86 in a Chinese Han family with congenital monilethrix
A specific gene mutation in KRT86 is linked to hair disorder in a Chinese Han family.
research 129 Targeted inhibition of EGFR reduces anti-microbial defense mechanisms at the hair canal
Inhibiting EGFR weakens skin's defense against bacteria.
research Some electron microscope observations on hardening in the human hair follicle
The hair follicle structure is more complex than thought, with new findings on protein formation.
research AP-2α/AP-2β transcription factors are key regulators of epidermal homeostasis
AP-2α and AP-2β proteins are essential for healthy adult skin and hair.
research The germinative epithelium of sheep vibrissae and wool follicles has extensive proliferative potential but is dependent on the dermal papilla
Sheep hair follicle cells can grow a lot but need the dermal papilla to do so.
research Histological evaluation of hair keratin based templates in mice
Keratin sponges are as biocompatible as collagen, but keratin gels are slightly less so.
research K31 as a novel marker for clear secretory cells in human eccrine sweat glands
K31 can identify clear secretory cells in human sweat glands.
research SKPs Derive from Hair Follicle Precursors and Exhibit Properties of Adult Dermal Stem Cells
SKPs are similar to adult skin stem cells and could help in skin repair and hair growth.
research Molecular elements of the regulatory control of keratin filament modulator AHF/trichohyalin in the hair follicle
The study concluded that a protein important for hair strength is regulated by certain molecular processes and is affected by growth phases.
research In vitro culture of murine fetal epidermal stem cell and its relationship with the regeneration of hair follicle
Murine fetal epidermal stem cells can help regenerate hair follicles.
research Trichoblastic Carcinoma
Trichoblastic carcinoma may be a distinct type of skin cancer different from basal cell carcinoma.
research The Region Coding for the Helix Termination Motif and the Adjacent Intron 6 of the Human Type I Hair Keratin Gene hHa2 Contains Three Natural, Closely Spaced Polymorphic Sites
research Identifying the Target Cells and Mechanisms of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection
Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.
research Equine Hoof Stem Progenitor Cells (HPC) CD29 + /Nestin + /K15 + – a Novel Dermal/epidermal Stem Cell Population With a Potential Critical Role for Laminitis Treatment
Newly found stem cells in horse hooves show promise for treating a hoof disease called laminitis.
research Basal cells in the epidermis and epidermal differentiation
