research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.
research In This Issue
Advancements in hair biology include new treatments and tools for hair growth and alopecia.
research Festschrift in honor of the 65th birthday of Dr. Howard I. Maibach
Antiyeast treatments work better for seborrheic dermatitis than steroids, and other findings include increased skin bacteria under plastic wrap, a nasal cell defect in Staphylococcus aureus carriers, quick resolution of certain skin reactions, high rubber latex allergy in spina bifida patients, and glyceryl monopentadecanoate's effectiveness for male hair loss.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Hair Growth Booster Effects of Micro-Needling with Low-Level Led Therapy and Growth Factors on Subjects Treated with Finasteride®
Combining micro-needling, LED therapy, and growth factors with Finasteride® significantly improves hair growth.
research ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDIES OF HAIR AND WOOL
Hair and wool have complex microscopic structures with microfibrils and varying cystine content.
research K6irs1, K6irs2, K6irs3, and K6irs4 Represent the Inner-Root-Sheath-Specific Type II Epithelial Keratins of the Human Hair Follicle1
Four specific keratins in hair follicles help understand hair structure and function.
research Regulation of Keratin 9 in Nonpalmoplantar Keratinocytes by Palmoplantar Fibroblasts Through Epithelial–Mesenchymal Interactions
Nonpalmoplantar skin cells can be made to express keratin 9 by interacting with palmoplantar fibroblasts.
research Effect of discarded keratin-based biocomposite hydrogels on the wound healing process in vivo
Keratin-based hydrogels from human hair improve wound healing effectively.
research Is the Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome a Keratin Disorder?
Loose anagen hair syndrome may be caused by keratin gene mutations.
research Human KAP Genes, Only the Half of it? Extensive Size Polymorphisms in Hair Keratin-Associated Protein Genes
KAP genes show significant genetic variability, but its impact on hair traits is unclear.
research Characterization of Human KAP24.1, A Cuticular Hair Keratin-Associated Protein with Unusual Amino-Acid Composition and Repeat Structure
Scientists discovered a unique hair protein, KAP24.1, with a special structure, found only in the upper part of hair cuticles.
research Polymorphisms in the Human High Sulfur Hair Keratin-associated Protein 1, KAP1, Gene Family
Genetic variations in hair keratin proteins exist but don't significantly affect hair structure.
research Congenital hair loss disorders: Rare, but not too rare
Some hair loss disorders are caused by genetic mutations affecting hair growth.
research A Mutational Hotspot in the 2B Domain of Human Hair Basic Keratin 6 (hHb6) in Monilethrix Patients
A common mutation in the hHb6 gene is linked to monilethrix, but other factors may also play a role.
research A Novel Mouse Type I Intermediate Filament Gene, Keratin 17n (K17n), Exhibits Preferred Expression in Nail Tissue
A new mouse gene, Keratin 17n, is mainly found in nail tissue and may explain why mice without Keratin 17 don't have nail issues.
research Deficient Plakophilin-1 Expression Due to a Mutation in PKP1 Causes Ectodermal Dysplasia-Skin Fragility Syndrome in Chesapeake Bay Retriever Dogs
A PKP1 gene mutation causes skin fragility and hair loss in Chesapeake Bay retriever puppies.
research Identification of the keratin-associated protein 13-3 (KAP13-3) gene in sheep
The KAP13-3 gene in sheep affects wool quality by influencing keratin assembly.
research Comparative genomics analyses of alpha-keratins reveal insights into evolutionary adaptation of marine mammals
Marine mammals lost many α-keratin genes, aiding their adaptation to aquatic life by becoming hairless.
research The hair follicle enigma
The document concludes that understanding hair follicles requires more research using computational methods and an integrative approach, considering the current limitations in hair treatment products.
research VEGF upregulates VEGF receptor-2 on human outer root sheath cells and stimulates proliferation through ERK pathway
VEGF stimulates hair cell growth and increases growth receptor levels through a specific signaling pathway.
research Ultrastructural localization of hair keratin homologs in the claw of the lizard Anolis carolinensis
Lizard claws have hair-like keratins similar to those in mammals.
research Chapter 4 Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
