research Long noncoding RNA and gene expression analysis of melatonin-exposed Liaoning cashmere goat fibroblasts indicating cashmere growth
Melatonin treatment increases a specific RNA in goat cells that boosts cashmere growth.
research Effect of equilibrium pH on the structure and properties of bleach‐damaged human hair fibers
Hair's structure and properties change with pH; acidic pH maintains strength and less swelling, while alkaline pH increases water content and swelling.
research Perspectives and Challenges of Hair Analysis
Hair is a complex organ, and understanding its detailed structure and growth phases is crucial for analyzing substances within it.
research RISK FACTORS, PREVALENCE AND DIAGNOSIS OF HUTCHISON GILFORD SYNDROME WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO CASE REPORTS
Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by a specific gene mutation, characterized by aging symptoms and managed by monitoring heart health and using low-dose aspirin.
research Investigating RNA-Seq-based differential gene expression during hair follicle development in Angora goat skin
Angora goat hair growth is influenced by gene expression, sex hormones, and breed differences.
research Alopecia areata susceptibility variant identified by MHC risk haplotype sequencing reproduces symptomatic patched hair loss in mice
A gene variant causes patched hair loss in mice, similar to alopecia areata in humans.
research Feather arrays are patterned by interacting signalling and cell density waves
Feather patterns in birds are shaped by signaling interactions and cell movements, with EDA/EDAR crucial for pattern formation.
research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
research Characterisation of cell cycle arrest and terminal differentiation in a maximally proliferative human epithelial tissue: Lessons from the human hair follicle matrix
CIP/KIP proteins help stop cell division and support hair growth.
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 Proteomic analysis of balding and non-balding mesenchyme-derived dermal papilla cells from androgenetic alopecia patients using on-line two-dimensional reversed phase-reversed phase LC–MS/MS
Found different proteins in balding and non-balding cells, giving insight into hair loss causes.
research Keratin
Understanding how keratin structures in hair are arranged and interact is key for creating methods to extract and purify them.
research Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds—Revisiting the cause of a well-known disease
Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds is caused by structural defects in hair shafts due to downregulated genes and proteins.
research Hutchinson-Gilford syndrome: History, causes, phenotype and research advances
Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome causes rapid aging from a genetic mutation, with no cure but ongoing research into potential treatments.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
