research Unlocking the genetic secrets of Dorper sheep: insights into wool shedding and hair follicle development
Dorper sheep's wool shedding is linked to specific genes and pathways, which may help understand human hair growth.
research Downregulation of mRNAs Encoding Keratin-Associated Proteins in the Tongue of Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet
A high-fat diet may weaken tongue structure by reducing certain protein genes.
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 Scarring hair follicle destruction is driven by the collapse of EGFR-protected JAK-STAT1-sensitive stem cell immune privilege
A protein called EGFR protects hair follicle stem cells, and when it's disrupted, hair follicles can be damaged, but blocking certain pathways can restore hair growth.
research Research Progress in Composition, Classification and Influencing Factors of Hair
Lipids are important for healthy hair, but their exact role is not fully understood and needs more research.
research LncRNAs regulate the cyclic growth and development of hair follicles in Dorper sheep
Certain long non-coding RNAs are important for controlling hair growth cycles in sheep.
research Expression and tissue distribution analysis of vimentin and transthyretin proteins associated with coat colors in sheep (Ovis aries)
Vimentin and transthyretin proteins are linked to black coat color in sheep.
research Transcriptome Dynamics Reveal Stage-Specific and Melatonin-Triggered Gene Expression Patterns During The Cashmere Growth Cycle in Capra Hircus
Melatonin affects certain genes and pathways involved in cashmere goat hair growth.
research Transcriptome Dynamics Reveal Stage-specific and Melatonin-triggered Gene Expression Patterns During the Cashmere Growth Cycle in Capra Hircus
Melatonin can increase cashmere yield by altering gene expression and restarting the growth cycle early.
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 Alopecia Areata and Medical Modulation of the Intrinsic Property of Melanin to Transform Light Into Chemical Energy Through the Water Dissociation
Enhancing melanin's energy generation may help treat alopecia areata.
research Antiglicants
Anti-glycation treatments might slow skin aging, but more research is needed.
research Inducing hair follicle neogenesis by defined extracellular factors
Certain factors can start hair growth in adult skin by making cells communicate and form new hair follicles.
research Ultrastructural Characteristics of Neonate Scalp Hair
Neonate scalp hair is thinner, lacks a medulla, and has smaller follicles compared to adult hair.
research Effects of Collagen Peptides on Gene Expression Related to Hair Cycle Activation in the Skin
Collagen peptides may promote hair growth by activating certain genes in the skin.
research The pathogenesis of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease affecting hair follicles and may harm heart health.
research Células-tronco foliculares e aspectos histopatológicos cutâneos tardios após prolongada remoção de pêlos a laser
Laser hair removal may cause skin changes that prevent hair regrowth.
research The in vitro plasticity of hair follicle dermal and mesenchymal stem cells
Hair follicle stem cells are similar to mesenchymal stem cells and can become neural-like cells under certain conditions.
research Investigation of the role of biotin in the regulation of wool growth in sheep hair follicle cultured in vitro
Biotin boosts wool growth and follicle health in sheep.
research In This Issue
Advancements in hair biology include new treatments and tools for hair growth and alopecia.
research In That Issue: Proceedings From the Third Intercontinental Meeting of Hair Research Societies
The meeting covered advances in understanding hair growth, causes of hair loss, and potential treatments.
research SRD5A3 Is Required for Converting Polyprenol to Dolichol and Is Mutated in a Congenital Glycosylation Disorder
Mutations in the SRD5A3 gene cause a new type of glycosylation disorder by blocking the production of a molecule necessary for protein glycosylation.
research Ozone interactions with human hair: Ozone uptake rates and product formation
Ozone reacts more with unwashed hair, producing compounds due to scalp oils, which could lower ozone exposure but increase exposure to reaction products.
research Review of Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla cells as in vitro screening model for hair growth
Dermal Papilla cells are a promising tool for evaluating hair growth treatments.
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 Therapy and Antifungal Susceptibility Profile of Microsporum canis
Terbinafine and itraconazole are more effective against Microsporum canis than fluconazole and griseofulvin.
research Barley disease susceptibility factor RACB acts in epidermal cell polarity and positioning of the nucleus
RACB in barley is crucial for cell polarity and nucleus positioning, aiding fungal infection.
research Adult spiny mice (Acomys) exhibit endogenous cardiac recovery in response to myocardial infarction
Adult spiny mice recover better from heart attacks than common lab mice.
research Platelet-derived growth factor signaling modulates adult hair follicle dermal stem cell maintenance and self-renewal
