570-600 / 1000+ results research 376 Tsc2 disruption in mesenchymal progenitors regulates hair follicles and TGF beta signaling
Disrupting the Tsc2 gene in certain cells leads to thicker skin, larger hair, and changes in hair growth signaling, which can be partly reversed with specific treatment.
research Improved two‐dimensional electrophoretic mapping of Japanese human hair proteins; application to curved and straight Japanese human hairs; and protein identification by MALDI MS and MS/MS quadrupole time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry
The study found that minor protein differences between curved and straight Japanese hair are unlikely to significantly affect hair structure.
research Acquired progressive kinking of the hair following COVID‐19 disease
COVID-19 can cause hair to become progressively kinked.
research A Unique Case of Trichorrhexis Nodosa—"Bamboo Hairs"
A 4-year-old girl has a rare hair condition causing fragile, short hair.
research Proteomic tools for the investigation of human hair structural proteins and evidence of weakness sites on hair keratin coil segments
Hair proteins have weak spots in their α-helical segments.
research A man with frontal fibrosing alopecia
A 60-year-old man with a long-term balding condition also developed a rare hair loss condition usually seen in postmenopausal women.
research Analysis of structural change in keratin fibers resulting from chemical treatments using Raman spectroscopy
Chemical hair straightening changes hair proteins and mostly fixes broken bonds.
research The β9 Loop Domain of PA-PLA1α Has a Crucial Role in Autosomal Recessive Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis
A specific mutation in PA-PLA1α causes abnormal hair growth.
research Pulling force deforms hair follicle root sheath nuclei and surrounding dermal collagen matrix differently at infundibulum, isthmus and suprabulbar regions
Hair follicles respond differently to pulling forces in various regions.
research Cyclic combing of untreated and bleached human hair: Analysis of the time‐dependent breakage of hair through recording the formation of fibre fragments
Friction causes hair breakage during combing, and fragment count predicts hair strength.
research The up‐regulation of 14‐3‐3 proteins in Smad4 deficient epidermis and hair follicles at catagen
Increased 14-3-3 proteins may block hair cycle regression, causing hair loss.
research IMMUNOPATHOLOGY OF THE HUMAN HAIR FOLLICLE
The document concludes that immune system abnormalities cause alopecia areata, but the exact process is still not completely understood.
research Crosstalk between Immune Microenvironment and Hair Follicle Cells Underlies Sexual Dimorphism in Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in males and females is influenced by immune cell interactions, with potential treatments identified.
research Familial hypotrichosis of the scalp. Autosomal dominant inheritance in four generations.
A family had a genetic condition causing hair loss on the scalp, passed down through four generations.
research Luminescence and other photoprocesses in hair follicles in the disorder Trichostasis spinulosa
research Trichoscopy in alopecia areata and trichotillomania
Trichoscopy can reliably distinguish between alopecia areata and trichotillomania.
research A Comprehensive Approach to Hair Pathology of Horizontal Sections
A new method using visual aids to diagnose hair diseases was effective after brief training.
research Hair microscopy: an easy adjunct to diagnosis of systemic diseases in children
Hair microscopy is a simple and cost-effective method to help diagnose systemic diseases in children.
research Deletion of the epidermis derived laminin γ1 chain leads to defects in the regulation of late hair morphogenesis
Deleting a specific protein in skin cells disrupts normal hair growth and development.
research INTRODUCING GAP IN HAIR FOLLICLE ELECTROMAGNETISM AS MECHANISM FOR THE PRESENCE OF BIPOLAR ELECTRICAL CHARGES INHERENT IN THE HUMAN HAIR SHAFT
Human hair has bipolar electrical charges because of a gap in the hair follicle's electromagnetic field.
research Distinguishing Mouse Strains by Proteomic Analysis of Pelage Hair
Proteomic analysis can identify genetic differences in mouse hair, helping understand hair defects and variations.
research Investigating the origins of nanostructural variations in differential ethnic hair types using X‐ray scattering techniques
Different ethnic hair types have unique nanoscopic and molecular features despite having the same basic keratin structure.
research Overexpression of Hoxc13 in differentiating keratinocytes results in downregulation of a novel hair keratin gene cluster and alopecia
Overexpression of Hoxc13 in hair cells causes hair loss and skin issues.
research Hypopigmentation in frontal fibrosing alopecia
FFA patients have fewer melanocytes and thinner skin compared to others.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia shows robust T helper 1 and Janus kinase 3 skewing
Frontal fibrosing alopecia is linked to increased immune system activity and reduced stem cells, suggesting early treatment targeting this pathway might prevent hair follicle damage.
research Isolated eyebrow and eyelash trichotillomania mimicking alopecia areata
Some children and young adults with eyebrow and eyelash hair loss actually have a hair-pulling disorder, often with related psychological issues.
research Light scattering from human hair fibers
Researchers developed a new model for more realistic computer graphics rendering of hair by considering how light scatters on hair fibers.
