research Phosphatidic Acid Has a Potential to Promote Hair Growth In Vitro and In Vivo, and Activates Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase/Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase Kinase in Hair Epithelial Cells
Phosphatidic acid may help hair grow by affecting cell growth pathways.
research Therapeutic strategies for treating hair loss
The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.
research Complementary and Alternative Treatments for Alopecia: A Comprehensive Review
Some alternative treatments for hair loss might work, but more research is needed.
research Novel mutations in the keratin-74 (KRT74) gene underlie autosomal dominant woolly hair/hypotrichosis in Pakistani families
research Hair keratin pattern in human hair follicles grown in vitro
Human hair follicles grown in vitro maintain normal keratin patterns and structure.
research Review: Topical Minoxidil for Male Pattern Baldness
Minoxidil helps hair growth and boosts self-esteem in balding men.
research Local structure of human hair spatially resolved by sub-micron X-ray beam
Human hair has a new region with ordered filaments and the cuticle contains β-keratin sheets.
research Unraveling the Molecular Mechanisms of Hair and Nail Genodermatoses
Genetic discoveries are key for understanding, diagnosing, and treating inherited hair and nail disorders.
research Hard Keratin IF and Associated Proteins
research Interventions for female pattern hair loss
Topical minoxidil helps treat female pattern hair loss, but more research needed for other treatments.
research Chapter 4 Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
research Sequence and expression of human hair keratin genes
Human hair keratin genes are similar to mouse genes and are specifically expressed in hair follicles.
research Structure and site of expression of a murine type II hair keratin
A specific type II hair keratin was identified and found in hair cortex and tongue cells.
research The usefulness of dermoscopy in canine pattern alopecia: a descriptive study
Dermoscopy is useful for diagnosing hair loss patterns in dogs.
research An ultrahigh-sulphur keratin gene of the human hair cuticle is located at 11q13 and cross-hybridizes with sequences at 11p15
research The role of anemia and vitamin D levels in acute and chronic telogen effluvium
Low iron levels are a significant risk factor for hair loss, while high vitamin D levels might be a response to hair loss, not a cause.
research The hair shaft: normality, abnormality, and genetics
Hair microscopy is useful for diagnosing hair disorders, but clear definitions are needed for accurate genetic analysis.
research Ultrastructural localization of hair keratins, high sulfur keratin-associated proteins and sulfhydryl oxidase in the human hair
Hair proteins change location and structure as hair cells mature.
research Proteomic analysis identifies differentially expressed proteins participating in forming Type III brush hair in Yangtze River Delta white goat
Researchers found four key proteins that affect the development of a specific hair type in Yangtze River Delta white goats.
research Transcription Regulation and Protein Subcellular Localization of the Truncated Basic Hair Keratin hHb1-ΔN in Human Breast Cancer Cells
A truncated protein linked to breast cancer may change cell adhesion.
research Dermal EZH2 orchestrates dermal differentiation and epidermal proliferation during murine skin development
Dermal EZH2 controls skin cell development and hair growth in mice.
research Changes in the Hydrophobic Proteins in Response to Biotin Administration in Serum of Infant Patients with Alopecia as Assessed by the Protein Micro-Sequencing Method
Biotin helps regulate proteins in the blood, which may explain its role in hair growth.
research Psoriasiform skin reaction due to Brazilian keratin treatment
Brazilian Keratin Treatment can cause skin reactions like redness and scaling, possibly due to formaldehyde.
research 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 [Mechanism of rat sciatic nerve regeneration induced by human hair keratin].
Human hair keratin helps regenerate rat sciatic nerves by transforming Schwann cells and protecting axons.
research Investigating the role of keratin proteins and microbial associations in hereditary and pathogenic alopecia
research Stable isotope analyses of carbon and nitrogen in hair keratin of suspected man-eating wolves from 1880s
The wolves suspected of man-eating in the 1880s likely ate very little human flesh and mostly consumed a diet similar to herbivores and omnivores.
research The usefulness of dermoscopy in canine pattern alopecia: a descriptive study
Dermoscopy is useful for diagnosing hair loss patterns in dogs.
research Insights on the Hair Keratin Structure Under Different Drying Conditions
