research Updates on Trichodysplasia Spinulosa Disease
Trichodysplasia spinulosa (TS) is a rare condition linked to immunosuppression, characterized by keratin spicules and potential progression to alopecia and a leonine face. Fewer than 100 cases have been documented, mostly in solid organ transplant patients. The infection mechanism of the causative Trichodysplasia spinulosa-associated polyomavirus (TSPyV) is not well understood, although 75% of adults have antibodies against it, and it is transiently present in about 1% of the population. Recent updates over the past 5 years include studies on the virus's seroepidemiology, proliferation mechanisms, and treatment options.
research The human keratins: biology and pathology
Keratins are crucial for cell stability, wound healing, and cancer diagnosis.
research Keratins in health and cancer: more than mere epithelial cell markers
Keratins help protect cells, aid in cancer diagnosis, and influence cancer behavior and treatment.
research Hair-on-hair static friction coefficient can be determined by tying a knot
Tying a knot can measure hair friction, useful for medical applications.
research The Comparison of Scraping, Trichogram, and Taping Techniques for Diagnosis of Demodicosis in Dog (PERBANDINGAN TEKNIK SCRAPING, TRICHOGRAM, DAN TAPING DALAM MENDIAGNOSIS DEMODEKSOSIS PADA ANJING).
Scraping is the best method to diagnose demodicosis in dogs.
research WNT10A mutation causes ectodermal dysplasia by impairing progenitor cell proliferation and KLF4-mediated differentiation
A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.
research The Hairless Phenotype of the Hirosaki Hairless Rat Is Due to the Deletion of an 80-kb Genomic DNA Containing Five Basic Keratin Genes
Hirosaki hairless rats lack hair due to missing DNA with key keratin genes.
research Proteomic Characterization of Damaged Single Hairs Recovered after an Explosion for Protein-Based Human Identification
Explosions don't stop hair proteins from being used to identify people.
research Keratin-6 driven ODC expression to hair follicle keratinocytes enhances stemness and tumorigenesis by negatively regulating Notch
ODC overexpression in hair cells increases tumor growth by reducing Notch signaling.
research Identification of the key proteins associated with different hair types in sheep and goats
Different proteins are linked to the varying thickness of sheep and goat hair types.
research Adsorption of Diclofenac and PFBS on a Hair Keratin Dimer
Human hair keratin might be good for filtering out harmful substances from water.
research Coils & Curls: A Mathematical Tapestry of Black Hair
Black hair's diversity in patterns and textures is influenced by follicle shape and keratin, and it holds cultural, artistic, and mathematical significance.
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 Biochemistry of epidermal stem cells
The review found that different stem cell types in the skin are crucial for repair and could help treat skin diseases and cancer.
research p53 Is a Direct Transcriptional Repressor of Keratin 17: Lessons from a Rat Model of Radiation Dermatitis
The protein p53 directly reduces the production of Keratin 17, a skin and hair protein, in rats with radiation dermatitis.
research Evaluation method of the degree of hair damage. (I). Measurement of tensile strength of human hair by "the multi-point tension test method".
The method accurately measures hair damage and strength, revealing effects of cosmetics and metal correlations.
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 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 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 Profiling of hair proteome revealed individual demographics
Hair protein analysis might help identify a person's ethnicity, sex, and age in forensics.
