research Jasmonic acid regulates plant development and orchestrates stress response during tough times
Jasmonic acid helps plants grow, defend against threats, and survive stressful conditions like drought and salt.
research Decision letter: NuMA-microtubule interactions are critical for spindle orientation and the morphogenesis of diverse epidermal structures
NuMA-microtubule interactions are vital for proper skin structure formation and function.
research Hypaphorine, an indole-3-acetic acid antagonist delivered by the ectomycorrhizal fungus Pisolithus tinctorius , induces reorganisation of actin and the microtubule cytoskeleton in Eucalyptus globulus ssp bicostata root hairs
Hypaphorine from a fungus changes the internal structure of Eucalyptus root hairs, stopping their growth.
research Formation and Characterization of Hollow Microtubes by Thermal Treatment of Human Hair
Heating human hair creates hollow microtubes with smooth surfaces.
research A mutation in MAP2 is associated with prenatal hair follicle density
A mutation in the MAP2 gene causes reduced hair follicle density, leading to hairlessness.
research Effects of dobutamine on cyclic AMP accumulation induced by the stimulation of dopamine receptors in rabbit retina in vitro
Dobutamine does not mimic dopamine at therapeutic doses but may at very high concentrations; microfilaments, not microtubules, are important for wound healing in Xenopus embryos.
research Morphogenesis of the antenna of the male silkmoth. Antheraea polyphemus, III. Development of olfactory sensilla and the properties of hair-forming cells
The male silkmoth's antenna develops olfactory structures over 21 days, with full hair formation by day 15.
research Direct evidence supporting the existence of a helical dislocation in protofilament packing in the intermediate filaments of oxidized trichocyte keratin
Oxidized trichocyte keratin has a helical dislocation in its structure.
research ILK modulates epithelial polarity and matrix formation in hair follicles
ILK is essential for proper hair follicle development and structure.
research Micro-mechanical approaches to characterize tip growth: Insights into root hair elasto-viscoplastic properties
Root hair growth mechanics depend on turgor pressure and cell wall properties.
research Skin-permeable liposome improved stability and permeability of bFGF against skin of mice with deep second degree scald to promote hair follicle neogenesis through inhibition of scar formation
A new liposome treatment helps heal deep burns on mice by improving hair regrowth and reducing scarring.
research Low-frequency dual-frequency ultrasound-mediated microbubble cavitation for transdermal minoxidil delivery and hair growth enhancement
Using dual-frequency ultrasound with microbubbles can potentially improve the delivery of hair growth treatment through the skin and enhance hair growth.
research Synchronizing actin and microtubules for axonal branching
Certain proteins help nerve cells branch, and other findings relate to cancer, stem cell behavior, and cell division.
research Recent advances on the mechanisms of kidney stone formation (Review)
Kidney stones form due to factors like urine concentration, calcium deposits, hormones, gut bacteria, and immune response.
research Self-organization process in newborn skin organoid formation inspires strategy to restore hair regeneration of adult cells
Newborn mouse skin cells can grow hair and this process can be recreated in adult cells to potentially help with hair loss.
research Direct Observation of Hair Components Involved in Formation of Permanent Waves
Microfibrils are key for permanent waves, and hydrolyzed keratin improves wave formation and hair condition.
research Sequence analyses of Type I and Type II chains in human hair and epithelial keratin intermediate filaments: Promiscuous obligate heterodimers, Type II template for molecule formation and a rationale for heterodimer formation
Type I and Type II keratin chains can form heterodimers despite sequence differences.
research Albendazole-induced anagen effluvium: a brief literature review and our own experience
The drug Albendazole, used for treating parasites, can cause sudden hair loss.
research Salicylate induces epithelial actin reorganization via activation of the AMP-activated protein kinase and promotes wound healing and contraction in mice
Salicylate helps wounds heal without scarring in mice.
research KIF18B is a cell-type specific regulator of spindle orientation in the epidermis
KIF18B is important for correctly positioning cell division machinery in skin cells, affecting hair follicle development.
research Steroid Sulfatase: Molecular Biology, Regulation, and Inhibition
The enzyme steroid sulfatase is linked to breast cancer and other conditions, and inhibitors are being developed for treatment.
research Cytoskeletal Regulation of Dermal Regeneration
