450-480 / 1000+ results research Engineered Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Stem Cells Overexpressing Controlled-Release Insulin Reverse Hyperglycemia in Mice with Type l Diabetes
Genetically modified stem cells from human hair follicles can lower blood sugar and increase survival in diabetic mice.
research Hair keratin KRT81 is expressed in normal and breast cancer cells and contributes to their invasiveness
The hair keratin gene KRT81 is found in both normal and breast cancer cells and helps them invade surrounding tissues.
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 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 Evaluation of the Effect of Plant Mixture Ethanol Extracts Containing Biota orientalis L. Extract on Suppression of Sebum in Cultured Sebocytes and on Stimulation of Growth of Keratinocytes Co-cultured with Hair Papilla Cells
The extract reduced sebum production and promoted hair growth.
research About photo-damage of human hair
We don't fully understand how sunlight damages different types of hair.
research Localization of varicella-zoster virus nucleic acids and proteins in human skin
The research found that chickenpox virus spreads in skin through blood then to skin cells, while shingles virus moves from nerves to hair follicle areas before infecting skin cells.
research The silver locus product (Silv/gp100/Pmel17) as a new tool for the analysis of melanosome transfer in human melanocyte–keratinocyte co‐culture
The new assay can track and measure melanosome transfer between skin cells, confirming filopodia's role in this process.
research The G60S Connexin43 Mutant Regulates Hair Growth and Hair Fiber Morphology in a Mouse Model of Human Oculodentodigital Dysplasia
The G60S Connexin43 mutation causes hair growth issues and poor hair quality in mice, similar to human ODDD patients.
research 474 Stabilizing mutations of KLHL24 ubiquitin ligase cause loss of keratin 14 and human skin fragility
Certain mutations in the KLHL24 gene cause a skin disorder by breaking down an important skin protein.
research MG53 Mitigates Nitrogen Mustard-Induced Skin Injury
MG53 helps reduce skin damage caused by nitrogen mustard.
research A Novel Approach to Pattern Dermal Papilla Spheroids in Dermal–Epidermal Composites Using Non-Adherent Microwell Arrays
The new method may improve skin grafts and hair growth.
research Epidermal expression of the truncated prelamin A causing Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome: effects on keratinocytes, hair and skin
Progerin affects cell shape but not hair or skin in mice.
research Moisture sorption/desorption of protein fibres
Internal lipids in keratin fibers, like wool and hair, reduce water absorption and release.
research Human skin color: Origin, variation and significance
Human skin and hair color variation is mainly due to melanin produced by a few genes, with melanin protecting against sun damage.
research The organization of the keratin I and II gene clusters in placental mammals and marsupials show a striking similarity
Keratin gene clusters in humans and marsupials are similarly organized.
research The structure of the “amorphous” matrix of keratins
Human hair keratin fibers have a detailed nano-scale structure that changes with different conditions.
research Mechanisms of hepatocyte attachment to keratin biomaterials
Human liver cells stick to hair protein materials mainly through the liver's asialoglycoprotein receptor.
research Nanostructured lipid carriers loaded with an association of minoxidil and latanoprost for targeted topical therapy of alopecia
A new treatment for hair loss uses tiny lipid carriers to deliver a mix of minoxidil and latanoprost directly to hair follicles, promoting hair growth and being well tolerated by the skin.
