Intu gene is crucial for hair follicle formation by helping keratinocytes differentiate through primary cilia.
research An epidermis‐permeable dipeptide is a potential cosmetic ingredient with partial agonist/antagonist activity toward fibroblast growth factor receptors
Pro-Ile could be used in cosmetics to improve skin, hair growth, and healing.
research Cellular and extracellular involvement in the regeneration of the rat lower vibrissa follicle
Both cell and non-cell parts are important for rat whisker follicle regrowth.
research Endocrine controls of keratin expression
Hormones control keratin production in skin and hair.
research Temporal Layering of Signaling Effectors Drives Chromatin Remodeling during Hair Follicle Stem Cell Lineage Progression
Different signals work together to change gene activity and guide hair follicle stem cells to become specific cell types.
research Analysis of heterogeneous reaction between reducing agents and keratin fibers using Raman spectroscopy and microspectrophotometry
The study found that thioglycolic acid breaks down hair bonds more consistently than l-cysteine, which is less damaging to hair.
research Identification of hair shaft progenitors that create a niche for hair pigmentation
Scientists found cells in hair that are key for growth and color.
research Genome-wide Maps of Histone Modifications Unwind In Vivo Chromatin States of the Hair Follicle Lineage
Hair follicle stem cells use specific chromatin changes to control their growth and differentiation.

The reinforced collagen sponge helps grow normal hair in mice.
research iTRAQ-Based Quantitative Proteomic Comparison of Early- and Late-Passage Human Dermal Papilla Cell Secretome in Relation to Inducing Hair Follicle Regeneration
Early-stage skin cells help regenerate hair follicles, with proteins SDF1, MMP3, biglycan, and LTBP1 playing key roles.
research Upregulation of genes orchestrating keratinocyte differentiation, including the novel marker gene ID2, by contact sensitizers in human bulge‐derived keratinocytes
The ID2 gene can help distinguish between sensitizers and irritants in skin cells.
research Genome-wide identification, characterization, and expression analysis of keratin genes (KRTs) family in yak (Bos grunniens)
Scientists found 53 keratin genes in yaks that are important for hair growth and share similarities with those in other animals.
research 742 Augmentation of HGF signaling: Potential for enhancing hair follicle neogenesis and development in bioengineered skin
Boosting HGF signaling could improve the creation of hair follicles in lab-made skin.
research Cyclic hair-loss and regrowth in transgenic mice overexpressing an intermediate filament gene.
Mice with extra sheep genes had hair that fell out and regrew in cycles.
research Exogen involves gradual release of the hair club fibre in the vibrissa follicle model
Hair sheds gradually from the follicle, with readiness to shed indicated by less attachment material.
research Exploring the Effects of Wetting and Free Fatty Acid Deposition on an Atomistic Hair Fiber Surface Model Incorporating Keratin-Associated Protein 5-1
Damaged hair allows water to penetrate more easily, and fatty acids from shampoos can deposit on hair surfaces.

Researchers found a way to turn skin cells into cells that can grow new hair.
research Strategies for improved hair binding: Keratin fractions and the impact of cationic substructures
Certain treatments can increase protein binding to natural hair but are less effective on permed hair.
