research A highly resistant structure between the cuticle and the cortex of human hair. II . CARB , a penetration barrier
CARB is a strong barrier in human hair that prevents dye penetration.
research Changing Patterns of Localization of Putative Stem Cells in Developing Human Hair Follicles
Stem cells in developing hair follicles move to specific areas as they mature.
research The distributions of type IV collagen .ALPHA. chains in basement membranes of human epidermis and skin appendages
Type IV collagen chains vary in different parts of human skin, with specific patterns linked to melanocytes.
research Keratin cytoskeletons in epithelial cells of internal organs
Keratins provide structural strength in epithelial cells and help identify cell origins.
research Differention of ES cell-derived epidermal stem cells in full thickness skin defects
ES cell-derived stem cells can help regenerate skin and form gland-like structures.
research Expression of caspase-14 and keratin-19 in the human epidermis and appendages during fetal skin development
research DERMAL-EPIDERMAL INTERACTIONS
Hair loss is mainly caused by hormones, autoimmune issues, and chemotherapy, and needs more research for treatments.
research Ultrastructural Resemblance of Basal Cell Epithelioma to Primary Epithelial Germ
Basal cell epithelioma resembles fetal hair follicles, not adult or fetal skin.
research Multi‐tasking epidermal stem cells: Beyond epidermal maintenance
Epidermal stem cells have various roles in skin beyond just maintenance, including forming specialized structures and aiding in skin repair and regeneration.
research Human hair keratins
research Epidermal stem cells in the skin
Epidermal stem cells help renew skin and regenerate hair follicles.
research “Dark Cells” in Normal, Hyperplastic, and Promoter-Treated Mouse Epidermis Studied by Conventional and High-Voltage Electron Microscopy
research Characterization of the epidermal-dermal junction in hiPSC-derived skin organoids
The study created hair-bearing skin models that lack a key protein for skin layer attachment, limiting their use for certain skin disease research.
research The concept of the onychodermis (specialized nail mesenchyme): an embryological assessment and a comparative analysis with the hair follicle
The onychodermis helps anchor the nail bed and may aid in nail formation.
research Differential dependency of unmyelinated and A delta epidermal and upper dermal innervation on neurotrophins, trk receptors, and p75LNGFR.
Neurotrophins regulate nerve growth by balancing promotion and suppression.
research Three-dimensional ultrastructural analysis of human skin with the arrector pili muscle interacting with the hair follicle epithelium
The method effectively analyzes skin tissue changes, especially in the arrector pili muscle and nerve fibers with hair follicles.
research Immunohistochemical demonstration of keratins in the epidermal layers of the Malayan pangolin (Manis javanica), with remarks on the evolution of the integumental scale armour
Keratins in Malayan pangolins vary by region, suggesting scales evolved from the tail towards the head.
research Gate keeping the sebaceous gland
The research found that specific stem cells maintain skin gland openings and that disrupting their activity can cause blockages or early cancer signs, indicating a need for targeted treatments.
research Comparative immunohistochemical analysis suggests a conserved role of EPS8L1 in epidermal and hair follicle barriers of mammals
