360-390 / 1000+ resultsresearch Cylindroma as Tumor of Hair Follicle Origin
Cylindromas likely originate from hair follicle stem cells, not sweat glands.
research Polycomb repressive complex 2 in adult hair follicle stem cells is dispensable for hair regeneration
Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 is not needed for hair regeneration.
research Trichothiodystrophy: an ultrastructural study of the hair follicle
Trichothiodystrophy causes abnormal protein deposits and distortion in hair follicles.
research Immunolocalization of junctional proteins in human hairs indicates that the membrane complex stabilizes the inner root sheath while desmosomes contact the companion layer through specific keratins
Junctional proteins stabilize the inner root sheath and connect the companion layer in human hair.
research Outer root sheath keratinization in anagen and catagen of the mammalian hair follicle. A seventh distinct type of keratinization in the hair follicle: trichilemmal keratinization.
Trichilemmal keratinization is a unique process in hair follicles where the outer root sheath turns into keratin without a specific layer.

Researchers developed a new method to clearly see and label hair proteins with minimal errors using advanced freezing and microscopy techniques.
research KIF18B is a cell-type specific regulator of spindle orientation in the epidermis
KIF18B is important for correctly positioning cell division machinery in skin cells, affecting hair follicle development.
research Monilethrix: Beaded hair and hypotrichosis in a child
A 9-year-old girl has a rare hair disorder causing beaded, sparse hair.
research Epithelial–mesenchymal transition in keloid tissues and TGF‐β1 –induced hair follicle outer root sheath keratinocytes
Keloid scars may form due to changes in skin cell characteristics and specific protein signaling.
research Identification and dissection of an enhancer controlling epithelial gene expression in skin
A specific DNA region controls skin cell gene expression by working with certain proteins.
research MOF-mediated Histone H4 Lysine 16 Acetylation Governs Mitochondrial and Ciliary Functions By Controlling Gene Promoters
