research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability during Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Mice lacking a key DNA methylation enzyme in skin cells have a lower chance of activating stem cells necessary for hair growth, leading to progressive hair loss.
research A novel control of human keratin expression: cannabinoid receptor 1-mediated signaling down-regulates the expression of keratins K6 and K16 in human keratinocytesin vitroandin situ
Activating cannabinoid receptor 1 reduces certain keratin levels, potentially aiding psoriasis treatment.

research Production and characterization of human hair keratin bioplastic films with novel plasticizers
Human hair was used to make biodegradable plastic films that could be useful for packaging and disposable products.
research Specific repair of aging hair keratin
A new keratin treatment can strengthen and protect aging hair.
research Case of follicular mucinosis: Nestin‐expression in mucin‐producing cells
A 29-year-old man had a jaw plaque diagnosed as follicular mucinosis, linked to nestin-positive hair follicle stem cells.
research Bio‐active designed peptide for hair keratin strengthening
Pal-KCV peptide strengthens hair and reduces breakage by up to 52%.
research AP-2α/AP-2β transcription factors are key regulators of epidermal homeostasis
AP-2α and AP-2β proteins are essential for healthy adult skin and hair.
research Alopecia areata susceptibility variant identified by MHC risk haplotype sequencing reproduces symptomatic patched hair loss in mice
A gene variant causes patched hair loss in mice, similar to alopecia areata in humans.

research Microscopical characterization of known postmortem root bands using light and scanning electron microscopy
The research found that postmortem root bands in hair are likely caused by the breakdown of a specific part of the hair's inner structure after death.
research Insights on the Hair Keratin Structure Under Different Drying Conditions
Drying hair with a microfiber towel better maintains hair strength and structure than using a cotton towel or blow-drier.
