A rare skin condition was confirmed to be associated with a specific virus in a young girl.
research A Composite Model for the Transport of Hydrophilic and Lipophilic Compounds Across the Skin: Steady-State Behavior
The model better predicts how water-loving and fat-loving substances move through the skin by including tiny pores and hair follicle paths.
research The New Keratin Nomenclature
The keratin naming system was updated to include 54 genes, especially for hair-related keratins.
research Spatiotemporal Expression Characterization of KRTAP6 Family Genes and Its Effect on Wool Traits
KRTAP6 genes affect wool quality in sheep.
research Trichohyalin: Presence in the Granular Layer and Stratum Corneum of Normal Human Epidermis
Trichohyalin is also found in the outer layers of normal human skin.
research Cellular and extracellular involvement in the regeneration of the rat lower vibrissa follicle
Both cell and non-cell parts are important for rat whisker follicle regrowth.
research Lineage Analysis of Epidermal Stem Cells
Skin stem cells maintain and repair the outer layer of skin, with some types being essential for healing wounds.
research Activity of type 1 5α-reductase is greater in the follicular infrainfundibulum compared with the epidermis
The enzyme type 1 5α-reductase is more active in the hair follicle's lower part than in the skin's outer layer.
research Scanning Electron Microscopic Study on Collagen Fibrils in the Mink Dermis during the Hair Cycle and Growth
Collagen fibrils in mink skin change structure during hair growth, becoming looser and thicker in the active phase.
research Profiling the Response of Human Hair Follicles to Ultraviolet Radiation
UVB radiation harms hair growth and health, causing cell death and other changes in human hair follicles.
research iRhom2 Mutation Leads to Aberrant Hair Follicle Differentiation in Mice
A mutation in the iRhom2 gene causes hairless mice due to abnormal hair follicle development.
research Hair diseases in childhood
Children's hair diseases include compulsive hair-pulling, easily plucked hair, scalp fungal infections, and head lice, each requiring specific diagnosis and treatment.
research Characteristics of the structural components of pilosebaceous follicles in the differential diagnosis of non-cicatricial alopecia
Hair follicles are thinner in alopecia patients, especially in alopecia areata.
research Follicular streamers (stelae) in scarring and non-scarring alopecia
Hair root sheaths are more common in non-scarring hair loss and help diagnose the type of hair loss.
research Cell death by cornification
Cornification is how skin cells die to form the protective outer layer of skin, hair, and nails.
research Implanted hair follicle stem cells form Schwann cells that support repair of severed peripheral nerves
Hair follicle stem cells can help repair damaged nerves.
research Generation of folliculogenic human epithelial stem cells from induced pluripotent stem cells
