810-840 / 1000+ resultsresearch Hair follicle epithelial stem cells contribute to interfollicular epidermis during homeostasis
Hair follicle stem cells help maintain skin health by moving to and supporting the skin's surface layers.
research 1435 Enzymatic digestion of scalp hair follicle bulge allows to have more bulge-derived stem keratinocytes than explant isolation
Using enzymes to break down scalp hair follicles gets more stem cells for skin and hair growth than the old method.
research The Autoimmune Regulator (AIRE), Which Is Defective in Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathy-Candidiasis-Ectodermal Dystrophy Patients, Is Expressed in Human Epidermal and Follicular Keratinocytes and Associates With the Intermediate Filament Protein Cytokeratin 17
AIRE protein, defective in APECED patients, is found in skin and hair cells and interacts with cytokeratin 17.
research 688 Precise and efficient editing of the COL7A1 gene in RDEB derived iPSCs with CRISPR/Cas9 and prime editing
CRISPR/Cas9 and prime editing can potentially fix skin disorder genes safely and effectively.
research Adhesive Depilation for Scalp Graft Hair Removal
A simple, safe, and cost-effective method using adhesive drapes effectively removes hair from scalp grafts, reducing infection risk.
research Pitx2, a β-catenin-regulated transcription factor, regulates the differentiation of outer root sheath cells cultured in vitro
Pitx2 helps outer root sheath cells differentiate but can't start hair growth on its own.
research Isolating Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Epidermal Keratinocytes from Dorsal Mouse Skin
The method successfully isolates hair follicle stem cells from mice for research.
research Characterization of a gene encoding a cysteine-rich keratin associated protein synthesized late in rabbit hair follicle differentiation
A rabbit gene important for hair development was identified and detailed.
research Efficacy and safety of the Exfoliate-Dissolve-Repair skin care approach in the treatment of keratosis pilaris: a randomized controlled clinical trial study protocol
The Exfoliate-Dissolve-Repair skincare approach may effectively treat keratosis pilaris and reduce the need for corticosteroids.
research Specific Inhibition of Hair Follicle Formation by Epidermal Growth Factor in an Organ Culture of Developing Mouse Skin
research 447 Skin-Associated Cartilage Consists of Lipid-Filled Cells That Modify Hair Growth via BMP and WNT Signaling
Skin-associated cartilage cells can influence hair growth by altering specific signaling pathways.
research Hair casts. A clinical and morphologic study
A lotion helped remove hair casts, which seem to come from a specific part of the hair follicle, and patients with hair casts can be grouped based on the cause.
research Influence of Hair Growth Cycle on Lipid Composition of Mouse Epidermis and Dermis.
Hair growth stages don't significantly change lipid content in mouse skin.
research Cultivation of Murine Hair Follicles as Organoids in a Collagen Matrix
research Bikunin, a Serine Protease Inhibitor, is Present on the Cell Boundary of Epidermis
Bikunin is found on the cell boundaries of certain skin layers and may help regulate skin and hair functions.
research 732 Ceramide synthase 4 controls epidermal lipid composition and barrier function
Ceramide synthase 4 is essential for maintaining skin barrier health.
research In vitroinvestigation of the follicular penetration of porcine ear skin using a nanoparticle-emulsion containing the antiseptic polihexanide
Antiseptic particles penetrate deeper into hair follicles than non-antiseptic ones.
research In vitro assembly properties of human type I and II hair keratins
research Severe Skin Permeability Barrier Dysfunction in Knockout Mice Deficient in a Fatty Acid ω-Hydroxylase Crucial to Acylceramide Production
Lack of a key enzyme causes severe skin issues and death in mice.
research Expression ofSfrp2Is Increased in Catagen of Hair Follicles and Inhibits Keratinocyte Proliferation
Sfrp2 increases during hair follicle catagen phase and slows keratinocyte growth.
research Differential Expression of Type I Hair Keratins
research Interleukin-1β-Induced Inhibition of Hair Growth In Vitro Is Mediated by Cyclic AMP
research A Congenital Hair Defect: Trichoschisis With Alternating Birefringence and Low Sulfur Content
research Extraction Videodermoscopy of Eruptive Vellus Hair Cyst
Extraction videodermoscopy is an effective, non-invasive diagnostic tool for eruptive vellus hair cysts.
research Dual-Action Icariin-Containing Thermosensitive Hydrogel for Wound Macrophage Polarization and Hair-Follicle Neogenesis
The gel with icariin speeds up wound healing, reduces scarring, and helps hair growth by controlling BMP4 signaling. It also reduces inflammation and improves wound quality in mice, adapts to different wound shapes, and gradually releases icariin to aid healing. It also prevents too much collagen and myofibroblast formation during skin healing.
research 862 Defining the molecular signature of the hair follicle dermal sheath and its functional requirement for hair cycle progression during catagen
The hair follicle dermal sheath is essential for hair shedding and needs to communicate with the outer root sheath for normal hair growth cycles.
research Soluble factors from human hair papilla cells and dermal fibroblasts dramatically increase the clonal growth of outer root sheath cells
research Pili annulati with fragility: Electron microscopic findings of a case
The study found that hair fragility in Pili annulati may be caused by cavities and damage within the hair shafts.
research Club-like receptors respond to light touch but not to whisking
Club-like receptors detect light touch but not whisking.
