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 Multiscale modelling of human hair
Human hair becomes weaker and stretches more easily at higher temperatures.
research Vertebral epidermal transamidases
Transamidases are present in the epidermis but their exact role is unclear.
research Epidermal Dysplasia and Abnormal Hair Follicles in Transgenic Mice Overexpressing Homeobox Gene MSX-2
Overexpressing the MSX-2 gene in mice causes skin and hair growth issues.
research Enhanced cutaneous wound healing by functional injectable thermo-sensitive chitosan-based hydrogel encapsulated human umbilical cord-mesenchymal stem cells
A new hydrogel with stem cells from human umbilical cords improves skin wound healing and reduces inflammation.
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.
research Organization and Expression of Hair Follicle Genes.
Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.
research Repairing the lungs one breath at a time: How dedicated or facultative are you?
Lung repair involves both dedicated and flexible stem cells, important for developing new treatments.
research The clinical features and histopathologic patterns of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides in a series of 38 cases
Recognizing diverse presentations of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides is crucial to avoid diagnostic errors.

Laser microdissection helps get DNA from single hair follicles for better forensic analysis.
research The structure of the cornified claw sheath in the domesticated cat (Felis catus): implications for the claw‐shedding mechanism and the evolution of cornified digital end organs
Cat claws stay sharp by shedding their outer layer through microcracks formed during activities.
research Embryonic keratinization in vertebrates in relation to land colonization
Keratinization in embryos helped vertebrates adapt to land by forming a protective skin barrier.

Cross-linked proteins help maintain the structure of hair, feathers, and hagfish teeth.
research Disruption of Smad4 in Mouse Epidermis Leads to Depletion of Follicle Stem Cells
Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.
research Functional hair follicle regeneration: an updated review
Hair follicle regeneration possible, more research needed.
research Heparan Sulfate Regulates Hair Follicle and Sebaceous Gland Morphogenesis and Homeostasis
Heparan sulfate is important for hair growth, preventing new hair formation in mature skin, and controlling oil gland development.
