research Bacteria induce skin regeneration via IL-1β signaling
Skin bacteria, specifically Staphylococcus aureus, help in wound healing and hair growth by using IL-1β signaling. Using antibiotics on skin wounds can slow down this natural healing process.
research Organization and Expression of Hair Follicle Genes.
Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.
research The activin binding proteins follistatin and follistatin-related protein are differentially regulated in vitro and during cutaneous wound repair
FLRG and follistatin have different roles in wound healing.
research Compartmentation of Mitochondrial and Oxidative Metabolism in Growing Hair Follicles: A Ring of Fire
Growing hair follicles have high mitochondrial activity and ROS in specific regions, aiding hair formation.
research Expression Profiling Reveals Genes Involved in the Regulation of Wool Follicle Bulb Regression and Regeneration in Sheep
The research identified genes and pathways important for sheep wool growth and shedding.
research Chapter 4 Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
research A Comprehensive Approach to Hair Pathology of Horizontal Sections
A new method using visual aids to diagnose hair diseases was effective after brief training.
research Distinct expression profile of stem cell markers, LGR5 and LGR6, in basaloid skin tumors
LGR5 and LGR6 are expressed differently in various skin tumors, which may offer clues about their origins.
research Dermoscopy: distinguishing malignant tumors from benign
Dermoscopy greatly improves melanoma diagnosis and reduces unneeded surgeries.
research What’s New in the Histologic Evaluation of Alopecia and Hair-Related Disorders?
New biopsy techniques and tools improve alopecia diagnosis, and both too much and too little selenium can cause hair loss.
research Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, leading to their unique scales and skin features.
research The Rho GTPase exchange factor Vav2 promotes extensive age-dependent rewiring of the hair follicle stem cell transcriptome
Vav2 changes how hair follicle stem cells' genes work as they age, which might improve regeneration but also raise cancer risk.
research Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Hair Follicle–Specific Gene, Hacl-1
Researchers found a new gene, hacl-1, that is active in mouse hair follicles during hair growth and may be important for hair biology.
research Immunolocalization of a Histidine-Rich Epidermal Differentiation Protein in the Chicken Supports the Hypothesis of an Evolutionary Developmental Link between the Embryonic Subperiderm and Feather Barbs and Barbules
A specific protein in chicken embryos links early skin layers to feather development.
research A Clinician's approach to the investigation of otitis externa
The document concludes that a thorough examination and various tests are crucial for diagnosing and treating ear inflammation in pets.
research Scalp Tourniquets for Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Scalp tourniquets did not significantly prevent hair loss from chemotherapy.
research 1332 Understanding the role of glycogen metabolism in human hair follicle biology
Glycogen metabolism is important for energy and processes in human hair follicles, and hair follicles may produce glucose from lactate.
research Abstract 21: Preoperative Versus Postoperative Language Specialization in Infants with Sagittal Craniosynostosis: An ERP Study
Surgery may help infants with sagittal craniosynostosis develop more typical language processing.
research Genome-wide detection and sequence conservation analysis of long non-coding RNA during hair follicle cycle of yak
Researchers found that certain RNA sequences play a role in yak hair growth and these sequences are somewhat similar to those in cashmere goats.
research K25 (K25irs1), K26 (K25irs2), K27 (K25irs3), and K28 (K25irs4) Represent the Type I Inner Root Sheath Keratins of the Human Hair Follicle
K25, K27, and K28 are found in all inner root sheath layers of hair, while K26 is only in the cuticle.
research Comparative Anatomy of Mouse and Human Nail Units
Mouse nails are similar to human nails, making them useful for studying nail diseases.
research Krtap11-1, a hair keratin-associated protein, as a possible crucial element for the physical properties of hair shafts
Krtap11-1 is important for hair strength and structure.
research Differential expression of keratin and keratin associated proteins are linked with hair loss condition in spontaneously mutated inbred mice
Abnormal gene expression related to keratin causes hair loss in certain mice.
research Hair: Its structure and response to cosmetic preparations
Hair can be damaged by daily routines, but protein-based products can protect and improve it.
research Mammalian keratin associated proteins (KRTAPs) subgenomes: disentangling hair diversity and adaptation to terrestrial and aquatic environments
Different hair types in mammals are linked to variations in specific protein genes, with changes influenced by their living environments.
research Mutations in Three Genes Encoding Proteins Involved in Hair Shaft Formation Cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome
Mutations in three genes cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome, leading to frizzy hair that can't be combed flat.
research Immunohistochemical demonstration of keratins in the epidermal layers of the Malayan pangolin (Manis javanica), with remarks on the evolution of the integumental scale armour
Keratins in Malayan pangolins vary by region, suggesting scales evolved from the tail towards the head.
research Suppression of Vitamin D Receptor and Induction of Retinoid X Receptor α Expression During Squamous Differentiation of Cultured Keratinocytes
