research Clinical and Histologic Features of 64 Cases of Steatocystoma Multiplex
Steatocystoma multiplex is a skin condition starting around age 26, linked to hair follicles, and related to eruptive vellus hair cysts.
research The disruption of Sox21-mediated hair shaft cuticle differentiation causes cyclic alopecia in mice
Disrupting the Sox21 gene in mice causes hair loss and regrowth cycles.
research Ichthyosis follicularis, alopecia, and photophobia (IFAP) syndrome
IFAP syndrome is a rare genetic disorder causing skin, hair, and eye issues, with limited treatment options.
research Structure and expression of genes for a class of cysteine-rich proteins of the cuticle layers of differentiating wool and hair follicles.
Researchers found genes for cysteine-rich proteins that form the protective layer of hair in humans and sheep.
research The biology and genetics of curly hair
Curly hair is influenced by specific genetic variations.
research Influence of TRPV3 mutation on hair growth cycle in mice

research Post-transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
miR-22, a type of microRNA, controls hair growth and its overproduction can cause hair loss, while its absence can speed up hair growth.
research Prolactin: an emerging force along the cutaneous–endocrine axis
Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research Multiscale modelling of human hair
Human hair becomes weaker and stretches more easily at higher temperatures.
research Epithelial differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) undergoing three-dimensional (3D) cultivation with collagen sponge scaffold (CSS) via an indirect co-culture strategy
Using a collagen sponge scaffold helps stem cells become more like skin cells.
