research In search of decoding the syntax of the bioelements in human hair – A critical overview
Hair analysis can show nutritional status and environmental exposure, with phosphorus being very stable in hair and differences found based on gender and conditions like depression and autism.
research Targeting lymphoid-derived IL-17 signaling to delay skin aging
Blocking IL-17 signaling may reduce skin inflammation and delay aging.
research VIII International Conference "Interdisciplinary aspects of diseases of the skin and mucous membranes" 11-12th March 2022
Higher IL-31 levels are linked to worse itching in chronic kidney disease patients.
research Activation of Polyamine Catabolism Profoundly Alters Tissue Polyamine Pools and Affects Hair Growth and Female Fertility in Transgenic Mice Overexpressing Spermidine/SpermineN 1-Acetyltransferase
Overexpressing a specific enzyme in mice causes hair loss and female infertility.
research Alopecia in IL-10-deficient mouse pups is c-kit-dependent and can be triggered by iron deficiency
Hair loss in certain young mice is linked to a specific gene and can be caused by lack of iron.
research Strengthening the Skin with Topical Delivery of Keratinocyte Growth Factor-1 Using a Novel DNA Plasmid
Applying a special DNA plasmid to the skin can make it thicker and stronger.
research 14. Wound Healing; Cutaneous Therapy; Hair
A device was made in 2008 to measure hair loss severity. Other findings include: frizzy mutation in mice isn't related to Fgfr2, C/EBPx marks preadipocytes, Cyclosporin A speeds up hair growth in mice, blocking plasmin and metalloproteinases hinders healing, hyperbaric oxygen helps ischemic wound healing, amniotic membranes heal wounds better than polyurethane foam, rhVEGF165 from a fibrin matrix improves tissue flap viability and induces VEGF-R2 expression, and bFGF enhances wound healing and reduces scarring in rabbits.
research 1311 Efficacy of topical tofacitinib in promoting hair growth in non-scarring alopecia
Topical tofacitinib is effective in promoting hair growth for non-scarring alopecia.
research Keratins as an Inflammation Trigger Point in Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex
Mutant keratins cause inflammation in Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex, suggesting targeting them could help treat the disorder.
research Is thyrotropin-releasing hormone a novel neuroendocrine modulator of keratin expression in human skin?
Thyrotropin-releasing hormone may help control skin and hair growth and could aid in treating related disorders.
research The Intermediate Filament Architecture as Determined by X-Ray Diffraction Modeling of Hard α-Keratin
Hard α-keratin in hair has a unique, nonordered structure, different from other fibers.
research PKC downregulation upon rapamycin treatment attenuates mitochondrial disease
Rapamycin treatment helps with mitochondrial disease by reducing PKC levels.
research Type II Epithelial Keratin 6hf (K6hf) Is Expressed in the Companion Layer, Matrix, and Medulla in Anagen-Stage Hair Follicles
K6hf is found in specific parts of hair follicles, nails, and tongue, and is linked to hair growth and structure.
research Keratin network modifications lead to the mechanical stiffening of the hair follicle fiber
Changes in keratin make hair follicles stiffer.
research Age-associated inflammation inhibits epidermal stem cell function
Aging causes skin stem cells to work less effectively.
research Development of a mechanically stable human hair keratin film for cell culture
A new film made from human hair supports skin cell growth better than collagen.
research Molecular Genetics of Alopecias
Scientists have found specific genes linked to different hair loss conditions, which could lead to new treatments.
research Cultured Peribulbar Dermal Sheath Cells Can Induce Hair Follicle Development and Contribute to the Dermal Sheath and Dermal Papilla
Certain cells from hair follicles can create new hair and contribute to hair growth when implanted in mice.
research Prolactin—a novel neuroendocrine regulator of human keratin expressionin situ
Prolactin affects the production of different keratins in human hair, which could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research Insights on the mechanical behavior of keratin fibrils
Keratin's mechanical properties are influenced by hydrogen bonds and secondary structure, and can be improved with the SPD-2 peptide.
research Atrichia with papular lesions resulting from a novel insertion mutation in the human hairless gene
Researchers found a new mutation causing total hair loss from birth.
