390-420 / 1000+ resultsresearch De novo filament formation by human hair keratins K85 and K35 follows a filament development pattern distinct from cytokeratin filament networks
Human hair keratins K85 and K35 create unique filament patterns important for early hair formation.
research Keratins of the human hair follicle: “Hyperproliferative” keratins consistently expressed in outer root sheath cells in vivo and in vitro
Outer root sheath cells consistently express certain keratins influenced by their environment.
research Regulation of Keratin 9 in Nonpalmoplantar Keratinocytes by Palmoplantar Fibroblasts Through Epithelial–Mesenchymal Interactions
Nonpalmoplantar skin cells can be made to express keratin 9 by interacting with palmoplantar fibroblasts.
research Overexpression of mIGF-1 in Keratinocytes Improves Wound Healing and Accelerates Hair Follicle Formation and Cycling in Mice
mIGF-1 in skin cells speeds up wound healing and hair growth in mice without harmful effects.
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 Dermoscopic Approach to a Small Round to Oval Hairless Patch on the Scalp
Dermoscopic examination helps diagnose different types of hair loss conditions by showing specific patterns.
research Telomere dysfunction impairs epidermal stem cell specification and differentiation by disrupting BMP/pSmad/P63 signaling
Telomere damage affects skin and hair follicle stem cells by messing up important growth signals.
research Microscopical characterization of known postmortem root bands using light and scanning electron microscopy
The research found that postmortem root bands in hair are likely caused by the breakdown of a specific part of the hair's inner structure after death.
research Strategies for improved hair binding: Keratin fractions and the impact of cationic substructures
Certain treatments can increase protein binding to natural hair but are less effective on permed hair.
research Comparative genomics of the keratin-associated protein (KAP) gene clusters in human, chimpanzee, and baboon
KAP genes are crucial for hair development and show both shared and unique traits in humans, chimpanzees, and baboons.
research Integration Analysis of Transcriptome and Proteome Reveal the Mechanisms of Goat Wool Bending
The research identified key proteins and genes that may influence wool bending in goats.
research Transcriptome Analysis of Improved Wool Production in Skin-Specific Transgenic Sheep Overexpressing Ovine β-Catenin
Genetically modified sheep with more β-catenin grew more wool without changing the wool's length or thickness.
research Convergent Decay of Skin-specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, showing complex skin evolution.
research Bilateral nevus comedonicus of the eyelids: An unusual cause of ptosis and ectropion
A rare skin condition caused droopy and outward-turning eyelids in a patient.
research Methods of keratin extraction from wool and hair and prospects of their application in biomedicine and bioengineering
Extracted keratin from wool and hair can be used in medicine and bioengineering.
research Disorganization of Transcriptional Regulation and Alteration of Keratin Family Gene Expression in Hairy Ear Mice
The hairy ear mutation in mice is linked to changes in gene expression affecting hair growth.
research Milagros enterprise Group S.A.S.: high-quality products in hair health international business plan
Milagros enterprise Group S.A.S. plans to expand globally by exporting its Professional Intensive Repair Mask to Mexico, France, and the U.S.
research Activation of the integrated stress response in human hair follicles
Blocking the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier causes stress in hair follicles, which can be reduced by an ISR inhibitor.
research Keratin-modified waterborne polyurethane: an alternative circular economy technology for adding value to cattle hair waste from leather tanneries
research Possible relationships between the physical conditions of cattle and the occurrence of structural modifications of their coat hair
Vitamin A deficiency changes cattle hair structure, while pregnancy may improve it, suggesting hair can indicate cattle health.
research KRT17 promotes endometrial cancer cell migration as well as angiogenesis by regulating HIF-1α/VEGF pathway
KRT17 may be a new target for endometrial cancer treatment because it helps cancer cells move and form new blood vessels.
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.
