research Control of pelage hair follicle development and cycling by complex interactions between follistatin and activin
Follistatin helps hair growth and cycling, while activin prevents it.
research Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Adipose Tissue in Clinical Applications for Dermatological Indications and Skin Aging
Fat-derived stem cells show promise for skin repair and reducing aging signs but need more research for consistent results.
research Overexpression of Smad7 results in severe pathological alterations in multiple epithelial tissues
Too much Smad7 can cause serious changes in skin tissues, including problems with hair growth, thymus shrinkage, and eye development issues.
research Histopathological and Ultrastructural Study of Ectodermal Dysplasia/Skin Fragility Syndrome
The study concluded that PKP1 is essential for skin integrity and hair growth, and its dysfunction causes the symptoms of ectodermal dysplasia/skin fragility syndrome.
research Partial Proteasome Inhibitors Induce Hair Follicle Growth by Stabilizing β-Catenin
Certain inhibitors applied to the skin can promote hair growth by maintaining a key hair growth signal.
research Congenital Hypotrichosis in Japanese White Strain (JW-NIBS) Rabbits.
A single recessive gene causes sparse hair in certain Japanese White rabbits.
research Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, leading to their unique scales and skin features.
research ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDIES OF HAIR AND WOOL
Hair and wool have complex microscopic structures with microfibrils and varying cystine content.
research Regeneration of Hair Follicles Is Modulated by Flightless I (Flii) in a Rodent Vibrissa Model
Flightless I protein affects hair growth, with low levels delaying it and high levels increasing hair length in rodents.
research Skin Deep and Deeper: Multiple Pathways in Basal Cell Carcinogenesis
The research suggests new treatments for skin cancer could target specific cell growth pathways.
research Deciphering Early-Stage Molecular Mechanisms of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy in a Murine Model
Negative Pressure Wound Therapy speeds up wound healing by reducing inflammation and promoting skin cell growth.
research A Newborn With Hair Loss
The baby’s hair loss was due to a rare genetic condition, not treatable by usual methods.
research Apoptosis May Explain the Pharmacological Mode of Action and Adverse Effects of Isotretinoin, Including Teratogenicity
Isotretinoin's effects and side effects, like birth defects and depression, might be due to it causing cell death in various cells.
research An investigation of vitamin D status in alopecia areata
People with alopecia areata often have lower vitamin D levels and more inflammation, suggesting vitamin D might be involved in the condition.
research Abstracts
New treatments and diagnostic methods for various animal skin conditions showed promising results.
research Special Stains and Immunohistochemical Stains in Hair Pathology
Special and immunohistochemical stains are not routinely needed for diagnosing hair disorders.
research Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, p21waf1/cip1 and p27kip1, are expressed site- and hair cycle-dependently in rat hair follicles
p21waf1/cip1 and p27kip1 help in hair follicle differentiation in rats.
research Sensitive skin
Sensitive skin often causes discomfort, affects many people, especially women and older adults, and should be managed with careful product selection.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
research Transcriptomic inspection revealed a possible pathway regulating the formation of the high-quality brush hair in Chinese Haimen goat ( Capra hircus )
Scientists found genes linked to the growth of high-quality brush hair in Chinese Haimen goats.
research Genetic Ablation of the CDP/Cux Protein C Terminus Results in Hair Cycle Defects and Reduced Male Fertility
Mutant CDP/Cux protein causes hair defects and reduced male fertility in mice.
research Wnt signaling in skin organogenesis
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.
research Measuring changes in chemistry, composition, and molecular structure within hair fibers by infrared and Raman spectroscopic imaging
Infrared and Raman imaging can non-destructively analyze hair structure and help diagnose hair conditions.
research Functional redundancy of Frizzled 3 and Frizzled 6 in planar cell polarity control of mouse hair follicles
Frizzled 3 and Frizzled 6 together control the orientation of mouse hair follicles.
research Characterization of Hair Follicle Antigens Targeted by the Anti-Hair Follicle Immune Response
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder causing hair loss, linked to specific hair follicle antigens and genetic factors.
research The human skin as a hormone target and an endocrine gland
Human skin acts like a hormone-producing organ, making and managing various hormones important for skin and hair health.
research Two distinct signaling pathways in hair cycle induction: Stat3-dependent and -independent pathways
There are two ways to start hair growth: one needs Stat3 and the other does not, but both need PI3K activation.
research Characterization of BMP2 gene expression in embryonic and adult Inner Mongolia Cashmere goat (Capra hircus) hair follicles
The BMP2 gene is more active in the early growth phase of Cashmere goat hair and may affect hair regeneration and textile production.
