research Probing the Effects of Stress Mediators on the Human Hair Follicle
Stress-related substance P may lead to hair loss and negatively affect hair growth.
research The role of tight junctions in skin barrier function and dermal absorption
Tight junctions are key for skin protection and controlling what gets absorbed or passes through the skin.
research Susceptibility variants for male-pattern baldness on chromosome 20p11
research Androgen Signaling Regulates SARS-CoV-2 Receptor Levels and Is Associated with Severe COVID-19 Symptoms in Men
Male hormones affect COVID-19 severity and certain drugs targeting these hormones could help reduce the risk.
research Hairless triggers reactivation of hair growth by promoting Wnt signaling
The HR protein helps hair grow by blocking a hair growth inhibitor, aiding in hair follicle regeneration.
research Agouti and Agouti-related Protein: Analogies and Contrasts
Agouti and AGRP affect pigmentation and obesity, with implications for metabolic disorders.
research The Fate of Trichohyalin
Trichohyalin is modified by enzymes to form strong structures in hair cells.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Hair growth inhibition by psychoemotional stress: a mouse model for neural mechanisms in hair growth control
Stress can stop hair growth in mice, and treatments can reverse this effect.
research Stress exposure modulates peptidergic innervation and degranulates mast cells in murine skin
Stress increases nerve fibers and immune cell activity in mouse skin, possibly worsening skin conditions.
research Gene Array Profiling and Immunomodulation Studies Define a Cell-Mediated Immune Response Underlying the Pathogenesis of Alopecia Areata in a Mouse Model and Humans
Alopecia areata is caused by an immune response, and targeting immune cells might help treat it.
research RBPJ Mutations Identified in Two Families Affected by Adams-Oliver Syndrome
Mutations in the RBPJ gene cause Adams-Oliver Syndrome.
research Hair-Cycle-Associated Remodeling of the Peptidergic Innervation of Murine Skin, and Hair Growth Modulation by Neuropeptides
Neuropeptides affect hair growth, with some speeding it up and others slowing it down.
research A simple immunofluorescence technique for simultaneous visualization of mast cells and nerve fibers reveals selectivity and hair cycle - dependent changes in mast cell - nerve fiber contacts in murine skin
Mast cell and nerve fiber interactions in mouse skin change with the hair cycle.
research Neurogenic Inflammation in Stress-Induced Termination of Murine Hair Growth Is Promoted by Nerve Growth Factor
Stress increases a factor in mice that leads to hair loss, and blocking this factor may prevent it.
research Identification and molecular characterization of a new ovarian cancer susceptibility locus at 17q21.31
A new genetic region, 17q21.31, is linked to higher ovarian cancer risk.
research A Guide to Assessing Damage Response Pathways of the Hair Follicle: Lessons From Cyclophosphamide-Induced Alopecia in Mice
The document concludes that assessing hair follicle damage due to cyclophosphamide in mice involves analyzing structural changes and suggests a scoring system for standardized evaluation.
research Neural Mechanisms of Hair Growth Control
Nerves and chemicals in the body can affect hair growth and loss.
research Epithelial growth control by neurotrophins: leads and lessons from the hair follicle
Neurotrophins are important for hair growth and could help treat hair loss.

Understanding wool keratin-associated proteins in sheep can help improve wool quality through selective breeding.
research A keratin scaffold regulates epidermal barrier formation, mitochondrial lipid composition, and activity
Keratin is crucial for skin barrier formation and affects mitochondrial function.
research Fluorescence Microscopy—An Outline of Hardware, Biological Handling, and Fluorophore Considerations
Designing effective fluorescence microscopy experiments requires careful consideration of hardware, biological models, and imaging agents.
research Autosomal-Dominant Woolly Hair Resulting from Disruption of Keratin 74 (KRT74), a Potential Determinant of Human Hair Texture
A mutation in the KRT74 gene causes tightly curled hair.
research WNT10A mutation causes ectodermal dysplasia by impairing progenitor cell proliferation and KLF4-mediated differentiation
A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.
research Extracellular Matrix Degradation Products and Low-Oxygen Conditions Enhance the Regenerative Potential of Perivascular Stem Cells
Low-oxygen conditions and ECM degradation products increase the healing abilities of perivascular stem cells.
research Stimulation of Hair Growth by Small Molecules that Activate Autophagy
Certain small molecules can promote hair growth by activating a cellular cleanup process called autophagy.
