research Mutations in SREBF1, Encoding Sterol Regulatory Element Binding Transcription Factor 1, Cause Autosomal-Dominant IFAP Syndrome
Changes in the SREBF1 gene cause a rare genetic skin and hair disorder.
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 Preparing the hair follicle canal for hair shaft emergence
A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.
research Key Factors in the Complex and Coordinated Network of Skin Keratinization: Their Significance and Involvement in Common Skin Conditions
Understanding keratinization is crucial for treating skin conditions like ichthyoses and psoriasis.
research The science of color: How chemical dyeing processes transform hair structure
Oxidative dyes damage hair more than semi-permanent dyes, but new technologies help protect hair while coloring.
research Tailored Effects of Plasma-Activated Water on Hair Structure Through Comparative Analysis of Nitrate-Rich and Peroxide-Rich Formulations Across Different Hair Types
Peroxide-rich plasma-activated water is gentler on hair than nitrate-rich formulations.
research 839 Spatiotemporal antagonism in mesenchymal-epithelial Signaling in sweat versus hair fate decision
Sweat glands and hair follicles are determined by opposing signals, with BMPs promoting sweat glands and blocking BMPs leading to hair follicles.
research 837 From genotoxic stresses to skin damage: Distinct, novel mechanisms of skin and hair damage in chemo/radiation therapy
Chemotherapy and radiation therapy cause skin and hair damage by altering gene expression and signaling pathways.
research Role of Vitamin D receptor in adult hair follicle cycling
Vitamin D receptor is essential for adult hair growth.
research Msx2 Prevents Stratified Squamous Epithelium Formation in the Enamel Organ
Msx2 is essential for proper enamel formation by preventing abnormal cell transformation.
research Structural changes in the trichocyte intermediate filaments accompanying the transition from the reduced to the oxidized form
Oxidation changes the structure of hair protein filaments, causing them to compact and rearrange.
research FOXN 1 Duplication and Congenital Hypertrichosis
FOXN1 duplication can cause excessive hair growth.
research Cyclic hair-loss and regrowth in transgenic mice overexpressing an intermediate filament gene.
Mice with extra sheep genes had hair that fell out and regrew in cycles.
research Lack of the Vitamin D Receptor is Associated with Reduced Epidermal Differentiation and Hair Follicle Growth
Vitamin D Receptor is crucial for normal skin and hair growth.
research Effects Of Keratin-Gelatin And Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor-Gelatin Composite Film On Open Wound Healing In Dogs And Cats
