research Hair matrix germinative epidermal cells confer follicle-inducing capabilities on dermal sheath and high passage papilla cells
Hair growth can be stimulated by combining certain skin cells, which can rejuvenate old cells and cause them to specialize in hair follicle creation.
research 447 Skin-Associated Cartilage Consists of Lipid-Filled Cells That Modify Hair Growth via BMP and WNT Signaling
Skin-associated cartilage cells can influence hair growth by altering specific signaling pathways.
research Fine structure and immunocytochemistry of monotreme hairs, with emphasis on the inner root sheath and trichohyalin‐based cornification during hair evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research Trichohyalin-Like Proteins Have Evolutionarily Conserved Roles in the Morphogenesis of Skin Appendages
Trichohyalin-like proteins are essential for the development of skin structures like hair, nails, and feathers.
research Genetic and biochemical aspects of the synthesis of keratin by hair follicles
Gene expression regulates keratin production for normal hair growth.
research Isolation and Characterization of Human Repetin, a Member of the Fused Gene Family of the Epidermal Differentiation Complex
Repetin is a protein involved in skin and hair development, binding calcium and compensating for other proteins when needed.
research Epidermal β-catenin activation remodels the dermis via paracrine signalling to distinct fibroblast lineages
Epidermal β-catenin activation changes the dermis by signaling different fibroblast types.
research Characterization of dermal type I collagen of C3H mouse at different stages of the hair cycle
Collagen remodeling is more active during hair growth stages.
research Keratin 17 modulates hair follicle cycling in a TNFα-dependent fashion
Keratin 17 is crucial for normal hair growth by regulating hair cycle transitions with TNFα.
research Keratins and skin disease
Keratin mutations cause skin diseases and could lead to new treatments.
research Fine Structure of the Fully Keratinized Hair Cuticle in the Head Hair of the Human
Human hair cuticle has five cell layers with specific junctions and granules.
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 859 Building a functional niche for hair follicle stem cells
Deleting the CRIF1 gene in mice disrupts skin and hair formation, certain proteins affect hair growth, a new compound may improve skin and hair health, blood cell-derived stem cells can create skin-like structures, and hair follicle stem cells come from embryonic cells needing specific signals for development.
research Keratin K6irs is specific to the inner root sheath of hair follicles in mice and humans
Keratin K6irs is a marker for the inner root sheath of hair follicles in mice and humans.
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 Expression of caspase-14 and keratin-19 in the human epidermis and appendages during fetal skin development
research Keratin intermediate filaments in the colon: guardians of epithelial homeostasis
Keratin proteins are essential for keeping the cells in the human colon healthy and stable.
