research The Hair Follicle as a Dynamic Miniorgan
Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.
research The cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system: securing a place under the sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research Sebocytes are the Key Regulators of Androgen Homeostasis in Human Skin
Sebocytes play a key role in controlling androgen levels in human skin.
research Smad7-Induced β-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research A Novel Human Type II Cytokeratin, K6hf, Specifically Expressed in the Companion Layer of the Hair Follicle
K6hf is a unique protein found only in a specific layer of hair follicles.
research Characterization of a 190-Kilobase Pair Domain of Human Type I Hair Keratin Genes
The 190-kbp domain contains all human type I hair keratin genes, showing their organization and evolution.
research Keratinocytes regulate the function of melanocytes
Keratinocytes control how melanocytes work.
research A novel purification procedure for keratin-associated proteins and keratin from human hair
A new method effectively separates keratin-associated proteins and keratin from human hair.
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 Cysteine Prevents the Reduction in Keratin Synthesis Induced by Iron Deficiency in Human Keratinocytes
Cysteine helps maintain keratin production in skin cells even when iron is low.
research An Ovol2‐Zeb1 transcriptional circuit regulates epithelial directional migration and proliferation
The Ovol2-Zeb1 circuit is crucial for skin healing and hair growth by guiding cell movement and growth.
research Hair keratin KRT81 is expressed in normal and breast cancer cells and contributes to their invasiveness
The hair keratin gene KRT81 is found in both normal and breast cancer cells and helps them invade surrounding tissues.
research Hair regrowth in a male patient with extensive androgenetic alopecia on estrogen therapy
Estrogen therapy helped regrow hair in a bald man.
research Electrophoretic variability in human head hair: Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of hair proteins in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate and urea
Human head hair proteins can be typed into eight distinct patterns, useful for genetic and forensic investigations.
research Effects of 1?,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 and calcipotriol on organotypic cultures of outer root sheath cells: a potential model to evaluate antipsoriatic drugs
Vitamin D compounds may help treat psoriasis by promoting skin cell differentiation.
research Xenobiotics in Vitro: The Influence ofL -Cystine, Pantothenat, and Miliacin on Metabolic and Proliferative Capacity of Keratinocytes
L-cystine, D-pantothenat, and miliacin together significantly boost keratinocyte growth and metabolism.
research Correction of Hair Shaft Defects through Allele-Specific Silencing of Mutant Krt75
Using special RNA to target a mutant gene fixed hair problems in mice.
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 Volume Changes During Water Binding to Hair Fibers
Hair increases in size when it absorbs water, and treatments like bleaching affect how much water it can take in.
research 138 Characterization of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes of a reconstructed human epidermal model from adult hair follicles
The reconstructed skin model from hair follicles functions like human skin in processing chemicals and can be used to test ingredient safety.
research 475 Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) L55M and Q192R polymorphisms, lipid profiles and psoriasis
The PON1 192R gene variant is linked to a higher risk of psoriasis and heart disease in Western Mexico.
research 477 Dietary fat- and obesity-sensitive dermal adipocyte PKCβ induction and inflammation cross-talk
Eating a lot of fat increases PKCβ and inflammation in skin fat cells, which affects skin and hair health.
research 476 Development of an intrinsic skin sensor for blood glucose level with CRISPR-mediated genome editing in epidermal stem cells
Researchers created a skin graft that senses blood glucose and could treat diabetes using CRISPR-edited stem cells.
research 478 Mutation-specific siRNA Knockdown of GJB2 − Potential gene therapy for Keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness Syndrome
Targeted siRNA therapy may be a promising treatment for KID syndrome by reducing mutant gene expression and improving cell communication.
research 474 Stabilizing mutations of KLHL24 ubiquitin ligase cause loss of keratin 14 and human skin fragility
Certain mutations in the KLHL24 gene cause a skin disorder by breaking down an important skin protein.
research And next… Adnexa: Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia
A 55-year-old woman with several health conditions did not see hair regrowth after a transplant.
research Human hair keratin hydrogel : fabrication, characterization and application
Keratin hydrogels from human hair show promise for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
research Gene expression profiling of human keratinocytes exposed to the hair-dying agent, m-aminophenol
m-Aminophenol in hair dye can cause skin cell toxicity and stress responses.
