research Dose-Dependent Histopathological and Structural Impact of Chemical Hair-Straighteners on Scalp Epithelium and Hair-Fibres Using Albino Wistar Rats
Chemical hair straighteners can severely damage hair and scalp with repeated use.
research The co-expression pattern of VEGFR-2 with indicators related to proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation of anagen hair follicles
VEGFR-2 activation is likely involved in hair follicle growth, survival, and development.
research 1315 An Integrated model of alopecia areata biomarkers highlights both Th1/Th2 upregulation, with stronger correlations between Th2 activation and disease severity
Both Th1 and Th2 immune responses are increased in alopecia areata, with Th2 response more strongly linked to how severe the disease is.
research Cosmetics and hair and nails
Hair and nails are skin parts that develop early and serve protective and functional roles.
research Mutation of a type II keratin gene (K6a) in pachyonychia congenita
research Alopecia areata profiling shows TH1, TH2, and IL-23 cytokine activation without parallel TH17/TH22 skewing
Alopecia areata involves immune activation in the scalp, suggesting treatments targeting TH1, TH2, and IL-23 pathways.
research Human keratin hydrogels support fibroblast attachment and proliferation in vitro
research Generation of folliculogenic human epithelial stem cells from induced pluripotent stem cells
Scientists created stem cells that can grow hair and skin.
research Wool Keratin-Associated Protein Genes in Sheep—A Review
Understanding wool keratin-associated proteins in sheep can help improve wool quality through selective breeding.
research Biology and Genetics of Hair
The document concludes that understanding the genes and pathways involved in hair growth is crucial for developing treatments for hair diseases.
research Characterization of a 300 kbp Region of Human DNA Containing the Type II Hair Keratin Gene Domain
The research identified six functional hair keratin genes and four pseudogenes, providing insights into hair formation and gene organization.
research Concerted gene duplications in the two keratin gene families
research Androgen Regulation of the Human Hair Follicle: The Type I Hair Keratin hHa7 Is a Direct Target Gene in Trichocytes
The hHa7 gene is regulated by androgens in certain body hair, not scalp hair.
research Identification of the Ovine Keratin-Associated Protein 26-1 Gene and Its Association with Variation in Wool Traits
Selecting specific KRTAP26-1 gene variants can improve wool quality in sheep.
research A Splice Site Mutation in the Gene of the Human Type I Hair Keratin hHa1 Results in the Expression of a Tailless Keratin Isoform
A genetic mutation in the hHa1 gene creates a smaller, but still functional, hair protein without causing hair problems.
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 Similar response patterns to topical minoxidil foam 5% in frontal and vertex scalp of men with androgenetic alopecia: a microarray analysis
Minoxidil foam 5% effectively treats hair loss in both frontal and vertex scalp regions.
research Frequency of an electrophoretic variant of hair alpha keratin in human populations.
The hair keratin variant is mostly found in Caucasians.
research A function for Rac1 in the terminal differentiation and pigmentation of hair
Rac1 is essential for proper hair structure and color.
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 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 Expression patterns of hair-related keratins and epithelial keratins in onychopapilloma: The significance of clarifying the origin of onychopapilloma
Onychopapilloma likely originates from the nail bed, not the nail matrix.
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 Demographic and Histopathological Evaluation in 71 Patients Diagnosed with Dissecting Cellulitis of the Scalp
Dissecting Cellulitis of the Scalp is more common in young men and often associated with head and neck acne.
research Bidirectional binding property of high glycine–tyrosine keratin-associated protein contributes to the mechanical strength and shape of hair
High glycine–tyrosine keratin-associated proteins help make hair strong and maintain its shape.
research Characterization of nonkeratinous proteins extracted from human hair by permanet wave lotion.
Permanent wave lotion can extract proteins from hair, especially when pH is higher, and repeated treatments or bleaching can damage hair.
