Research
180-210 / 1000+ results 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 Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone (TRH) Promotes Wound Re-Epithelialisation in Frog and Human Skin
Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone helps heal wounds in frog and human skin.
research The activin binding proteins follistatin and follistatin-related protein are differentially regulated in vitro and during cutaneous wound repair
FLRG and follistatin have different roles in wound healing.
research cDNA Cloning, Expression, and Assembly Characteristics of Mouse Keratin 16
Mouse and human keratin 16 can both form filaments, with differences likely due to the tail domain, not the helical domain.
research Smad4-dependent desmoglein-4 expression contributes to hair follicle integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
research Biphasic Regulation of HMG-CoA Reductase Expression and Activity during Wound Healing and Its Functional Role in the Control of Keratinocyte Angiogenic and Proliferative Responses
HMG-CoA reductase is crucial for skin wound healing by regulating keratinocyte growth and blood vessel formation.
research To Control Site-Specific Skin Gene Expression, Autocrine Mimics Paracrine Canonical Wnt Signaling and Is Activated Ectopically in Skin Disease
The research suggests that a specific skin gene can be controlled by signals within and between cells and is wrongly activated in certain skin diseases.
research p53 Is a Direct Transcriptional Repressor of Keratin 17: Lessons from a Rat Model of Radiation Dermatitis
The protein p53 directly reduces the production of Keratin 17, a skin and hair protein, in rats with radiation dermatitis.
research WIF1 Is Expressed by Stem Cells of the Human Interfollicular Epidermis and Acts to Suppress Keratinocyte Proliferation
WIF1 helps keep skin stem cells inactive to prevent excessive cell growth.
research Suppression of Vitamin D Receptor and Induction of Retinoid X Receptor α Expression During Squamous Differentiation of Cultured Keratinocytes
As skin cells mature, vitamin D receptor levels decrease while retinoid X receptor α levels increase.
research The Function and Structure of the Skin
The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.
research Cyclin D3 deficiency inhibits skin tumor development, but does not affect normal keratinocyte proliferation
Lacking cyclin D3 reduces skin cancer growth without affecting normal skin cell growth.
research Urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) is a positive regulator of outer root sheath keratinocyte proliferation
uPA helps hair follicle cells grow.
research Characterization of Primary Cilia and Intraflagellar Transport 20 in the Epidermis
Ift20 is essential for hair follicle function and skin cell movement.
research Keratinocytes of the Upper Epidermis and Isthmus of Hair Follicles Express Hemoglobin mRNA and Protein
Skin cells and certain hair follicle areas produce hemoglobin, which may help protect against oxidative stress like UV damage.
research The role of integrin alphavbeta6 in impaired wound healing and hair follicle regeneration
Integrin alphavbeta6 is important for wound healing and hair growth, and blocking it may improve these processes.
research Hair greying is associated with active hair growth
White hair grows thicker and faster than black hair due to higher activity of growth-related genes and proteins.
research Trichosanthes kirilowii Extract Promotes Wound Healing through the Phosphorylation of ERK1/2 in Keratinocytes
Trichosanthes kirilowii extract helps wounds heal faster.
research Epithelial Cells in the Hair Follicle Bulge do not Contribute to Epidermal Regeneration after Glucocorticoid-Induced Cutaneous Atrophy
Hair follicle bulge cells don't help skin regrow after glucocorticoid damage; interfollicular epidermis cells do.
research Cutaneous application of α-methylspermidine activates the growth of resting hair follicles in mice
Putting α-methylspermidine on mouse skin can start hair growth.
research Formation of the cornified envelope
The cornified envelope is crucial for skin's barrier function and involves key proteins and genetic factors.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The document concludes that the skin is a complex organ providing protection, sensation, and healing, with challenges in treating conditions like itchiness.
research Regulation of Hair Shedding by the Type 3 IP3 Receptor
The type 3 IP3 receptor is important for controlling hair loss and growth.
research Keratin 6A promotes skin inflammation through JAK1-STAT3 activation in keratinocytes
Keratin 6A increases skin inflammation, suggesting it could be a target for treating certain skin diseases.
research Preparing the hair follicle canal for hair shaft emergence
A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.
research Radiofrequency Currents Modulate Inflammatory Processes in Keratinocytes
CRET therapy affects inflammation in skin cells by changing cytokine levels and activating certain proteins.
research A Kaleidoscope of Keratin Gene Expression and the Mosaic of Its Regulatory Mechanisms
Keratin protein production in cells is controlled by a complex system that changes with cell type, health, and conditions like injury or cancer.
research Positive Impact of Fish Oil on Diabetic and Hypercholestrolemic Skin Disorders
Fish oil improves skin health in people with diabetes and high cholesterol.
research The genetic basis of dermatophytosis skin infection susceptibility
Genetic factors, skin barrier, immune function, and obesity influence risk of fungal skin infections.
