research Epidermal keratinocyte stem cells: their maintenance and regulation
Skin stem cells are maintained by signals from nearby cells and vary in their ability to renew and mature.
research Comparisons of mouse models for hair follicle reconstitution
The flap assay grows the most natural hair but takes the longest, the chamber assay is hard work but gives dense, normal hair, and the patch assay is quick but creates poorly oriented hair with some issues.
research Nonhuman primate dermatology: a literature review
The document concludes that veterinary dermatologists need more experience and a better approach to treating skin diseases in nonhuman primates.
research An Intrinsic Oscillation of Gene Networks Inside Hair Follicle Stem Cells: An Additional Layer That Can Modulate Hair Stem Cell Activities
Gene network oscillations inside hair stem cells are key for hair growth regulation and could help treat hair loss.
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 The Metabolism and Control Mechanism of Human Hair Follicles
Human hair follicles have a unique metabolism that changes between growth stages and may contribute to baldness.
research Dermal-epidermal interactions—follicle-derived cell populations in the study of hair-growth mechanisms
Dermal-epidermal interactions are crucial for hair growth and maintenance.
research Perspectives on Hair Evolution Based on Some Comparative Studies on Vertebrate Cornification
Hair in mammals likely evolved from glandular structures, not scales.
research From basal cell carcinoma morphogenesis to the alopecia induced by hedgehog inhibitors: connecting the dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
research Characterization and causal investigations of an alopecia syndrome in Australian fur seals (Arctocephalus pusillus doriferus)
Young female Australian fur seals are losing hair due to low tyrosine and zinc levels and high pollution exposure.
research Short anagen hair with persistent synchronized pattern of scalp hair growth
A boy had unusual synchronized hair growth with short active growth phases, not fitting known hair disorders.
research Expansion and characterization of epithelial stem cells with potential for cyclical hair regeneration
A specific group of stem cells can help regenerate hair continuously.
research Sebaceous gland abnormalities in fatty acyl CoA reductase 2 (Far2) null mice result in primary cicatricial alopecia
Deleting the Far2 gene in mice causes sebaceous gland issues and patchy hair loss.
research Tooth, hair and claw: Comparing epithelial stem cell niches of ectodermal appendages
The conclusion is that teeth, hair, and claws have similar stem cell niches, which are important for growth and repair, and more research is needed on their regulation and potential markers.
research The concealed side of caspases: beyond a killer of cells
Caspases do more than kill cells; they also help in cell growth and disease, and targeting them could lead to new treatments.
research Quorum sensing and other collective regenerative behavior in organ populations
Organs like hair follicles can renew themselves in complex ways, adapting to different needs and environments.
research Hair coat characteristics in Friesian heifers in the Netherlands and Kenya : experimental data and a review of literature
Friesian heifers take about 18 months to adapt to Kenya's climate, with hair changes not strongly linked to weight gain.
research Gap junctions in Turing-type periodic feather pattern formation
Gap junctions help control feather pattern formation in chickens.
research Human Fetal Scalp Dermal Papilla Enriched Genes and the Role of R-Spondin-1 in the Restoration of Hair Neogenesis in Adult Mouse Cells
Certain genes are more active in baby scalp cells and can help grow hair when added to adult mouse skin cells.
research Considerations on Hair Research and Hair Growth
The document concludes that hair biology is complex and there are still unanswered questions about hair loss and follicle changes.
research Single-cell transcriptomics defines keratinocyte differentiation in avian scutate scales
The research identified two types of keratinocytes in chicken scales: one for hard scales and another for soft skin, with similarities to human skin differentiation.
research Tactile innervation densities across the whole body
The skin has about 230,000 touch-sensitive nerve fibers, with high concentrations in the hands and face.
research Molecular Signaling and Nutritional Regulation in the Context of Poultry Feather Growth and Regeneration
Good feather growth in poultry needs the right balance of proteins, amino acids, minerals, and vitamins.
research Estrogen modulates mesenchymal-epidermal interactions in the adult nipple
Estrogen is important for keeping adult mouse nipple skin healthy by controlling certain cell signals.
research Computational derivation of a molecular framework for hair follicle biology from disease genes
The research provides a gene-based framework for hair biology, highlighting the Hippo pathway's importance and suggesting links between hair disorders, cancer pathways, and the immune system.
research Morphological characteristics and notes of the skin in preclinical toxicity assessment
Skin structure complexity and variability are crucial for assessing skin toxicity in safety tests.
research Understanding skin morphogenesis across developmental, regenerative and evolutionary levels
The article concludes that studying how skin forms is key to understanding skin diseases and improving regenerative medicine.
research Generation of human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived adherent 3-dimensional skin hair-follicle organoids
A new method was developed to efficiently grow skin hair follicles from stem cells, potentially aiding alopecia treatment.
research Scarless wound healing – a literature review
Fetal skin can heal without scarring, offering insights for new scar-reducing treatments.
