630-660 / 1000+ results research Paracrine TGF-β Signaling Counterbalances BMP-Mediated Repression in Hair Follicle Stem Cell Activation
TGF-β2 helps activate hair follicle stem cells by counteracting BMP signals.
research In This Issue
Hedgehog signaling is crucial for hair development, cadherins affect cell adhesion, neutrophils play a role in skin lesions, and BP230 autoantibodies impact skin stability.
research BMP4 and nuclear laminC orchestrate a expression of AHF/Trichohyalin molecule, a key modulator of keratin intermediate filaments in the hair follicle
research In pemphigus, cell detachment, but not autoantibody binding, induces cell-wide, long-lasting transcriptomic and proteomic changes
Cell detachment, not autoantibody binding, causes major changes in pemphigus.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Medium-molecular weight hyaluronic acid orchestrates hair follicle regeneration via CD44/AKT-driven endogenous ROS activation of β-catenin
research Author Correction: Keratin-mediated hair growth and its underlying biological mechanism
research A novel monoclonal antibody to the outer root sheath cells
The new antibody, TYHF-1, specifically targets certain hair-related structures.
research Mechanism of JmjC-containing protein Hairless in the regulation of vitamin D receptor function
Hairless protein helps control hair growth by regulating vitamin D receptor activity.
research Hyaluronidase Modulates Inflammatory Response and Accelerates the Cutaneous Wound Healing
Hyaluronidase speeds up wound healing and reduces inflammation.
research 1407 Mechanical force activation of TGF-β signaling controls hair follicle regression
Muscle around hair follicles controls hair loss by releasing a signal that causes cell death.
research A humanized IL-2 fusion protein enhances T regulatory cells in vivo and restrains disease in a murine model of Alopecia Areata 4760
A humanized IL-2 fusion protein boosts T regulatory cells and helps control hair loss in Alopecia Areata.
research Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone, a Novel, Locally Produced Modulator of Human Epidermal Functions, Is Regulated by Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone and Thyroid Hormones
The skin produces and responds to thyroid-stimulating hormone, which is controlled by other thyroid-related hormones.
research Cell Types Promoting Goosebumps Form a Niche to Regulate Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Muscles and nerves that cause goosebumps also help control hair growth.
research The role of somatostatin expression in hair follicle immune privilege
Somatostatin helps hair follicles suppress immune responses, which might aid in treating certain hair loss conditions.
research Identification of the Novel Membrane-Associated Protein AgK114 on Hamster Keratinocytes Recognized by a Monoclonal Antibody K114
AgK114 protein helps in hamster skin injury recovery.
research TSH is a novel neuroendocrine regulator of selected keratins in the human hair follicle
TSH influences keratin expression in human hair follicles.
research Transient Ca2+ entry by plasmalogen-mediated activation of receptor potential cation channel promotes AMPK activity
Plasmalogens activate a channel in cells that may stimulate hair growth.
research Human Female Hair Follicles Are a Direct, Nonclassical Target for Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone
Thyroid-stimulating hormone affects hair follicles but doesn't change hair growth or color.
research 1422 Uncoupling desmosomal cadherin adhesion activates quiescent hair follicle stem cells and orchestrates self-organized regeneration through outside-in signaling
Disrupting a specific protein's function in hair follicle stem cells triggers their activation and a self-healing process.
research Humanized CXCL12 antibody delays onset and modulates immune response in alopecia areata mice: insights from single-cell RNA sequencing
A humanized CXCL12 antibody may delay and treat alopecia areata by altering the immune response.
research Antihepcidin antibody treatment modulates iron metabolism and is effective in a mouse model of inflammation-induced anemia
Antihepcidin antibodies may treat inflammation-induced anemia by improving iron metabolism.
