Hairless mammals evolved quickly in both gene and non-gene areas related to skin and hair.
research iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomics revealing the therapeutic mechanism of a medicinal and edible formula YH0618 in reducing doxorubicin-induced alopecia by targeting keratins and TGF-β/Smad3 pathway
YH0618 helps reduce chemotherapy-induced hair loss by targeting specific proteins and pathways.
research Hair, Cutaneous Homeostasis and Stem Cell Functions
Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research Diseases associated with hidranitis suppurativa: part 2 of a series on hidradenitis
Hidradenitis suppurativa is linked to various diseases like obesity, depression, arthritis, and Crohn's disease, but often occurs alone.
research Epithelial differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) undergoing three-dimensional (3D) cultivation with collagen sponge scaffold (CSS) via an indirect co-culture strategy
Using a collagen sponge scaffold helps stem cells become more like skin cells.
research Against the Rules: Human Keratin K80
Keratin K80 is an ancient protein found in various tissues, important for cell structure and tissue differentiation.
research Mutations in the helix termination motif of mouse type I IRS keratin genes impair the assembly of keratin intermediate filament
Mutations in specific keratin genes cause improper hair structure in mice due to faulty keratin protein assembly.
research Expression patterns of hair-related keratins and epithelial keratins in onychopapilloma: The significance of clarifying the origin of onychopapilloma
Onychopapilloma likely originates from the nail bed, not the nail matrix.
research Tumor Necrosis Factor-α and Interleukin-1 Antagonists Alleviate Inflammatory Skin Changes Associated with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Antibody Therapy in Mice
Blocking certain proteins can reduce skin inflammation caused by cancer treatment.
research Histochemical and Immunohistochemical Markers for Human Eccrine and Apocrine Sweat Glands: An Aid for Histopathologic Differentiation of Sweat Gland Tumors
Markers help differentiate between apocrine and eccrine sweat glands to identify sweat gland tumors.
research cDNA Cloning, Expression, and Assembly Characteristics of Mouse Keratin 16
Mouse and human keratin 16 can both form filaments, with differences likely due to the tail domain, not the helical domain.
research Health Risks Associated with Long-Term Finasteride and Dutasteride Use: It’s Time to Sound the Alarm
Long-term use of finasteride and dutasteride can cause serious health issues like diabetes and liver problems.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Genetic Susceptibility to Alopecia
Certain mutations in the PADI3 gene may increase the risk of developing a type of scarring hair loss common in women of African descent.
research Current Genetics in Hair Diseases
Genetic mutations cause various hair diseases, and whole genome sequencing may reveal more about these conditions.
research The histopathologic spectrum of psoriasis
Psoriasis skin changes are complex and might need several biopsies for a clear diagnosis.
research Human basal cell carcinoma: the induction of anagen hair follicle differentiation
Basal cell carcinomas may differentiate similarly to hair follicles and could be influenced by hair cycle-related treatments.
research The genetic basis of dermatophytosis skin infection susceptibility
Genetic factors, skin barrier, immune function, and obesity influence risk of fungal skin infections.
research Effectiveness and Adverse Drug Reaction Mechanisms Associated with Valproic Acid Use: A Cross-Sectional Prospective Study in Indonesia
Valproic acid is effective but often causes side effects like weight gain and hair loss, so personalized treatment is needed.
research Adequate Nutrition and Premature Hair Graying: A Review of Literature
Good nutrition may help prevent premature hair graying.
research Keratinocytes of the Upper Epidermis and Isthmus of Hair Follicles Express Hemoglobin mRNA and Protein

Scientists can now create skin with hair by reprogramming cells in wounds.
research LB1081 Three-dimensional imaging of tight junction-network across multiple layers of human epidermis by array tomography using backscattered electron-mode scanning electron microscopy
The study found that tight junctions reach the top layer of the skin's stratum granulosum, not just the second top layer as previously thought.
research Hair Straightening
Hair straightening methods have advanced to improve effectiveness and reduce damage, but still rely on heat and chemicals.
