research The enhancement of dermal papilla cell aggregation by extracellular matrix proteins through effects on cell–substratum adhesivity and cell motility
Skin cell clumping for hair growth is improved by a protein called fibronectin, which helps cells stick and move better.
research The Role of Cell Polarity Regulator aPKC in Hair Follicle Stem Cell Maintenance and Wound Healing
aPKCλ is essential for hair follicle stem cell maintenance and wound healing.
research Combinatorial expression of cell cycle regulators is more suitable for immortalization than oncogenic methods in dermal papilla cells
Using a combination of specific cell cycle regulators is better for safely keeping hair root cells alive indefinitely compared to cancer-related methods.
research Trichothiodystrophy hair shafts display distinct ultrastructural features
Trichothiodystrophy hair is structurally abnormal with protein and organization issues.
research Crosslinking structure of keratin. V. Number and type of crosslinks in microstructures of untreated and potassium cyanide treated human hair
Potassium cyanide changes hair's disulfide bonds to monosulfide, affecting high-sulfur proteins more.
research THE N- AND C-TERMINAL END GROUPS OF HAIR KERATIN
Human and horse hair have similar end groups to wool and feathers.
research Monilethrix: a keratin hHb6 mutation is co‐dominant with variable expression
A keratin hHb6 mutation causes a hair disorder with varying severity, influenced by other factors.
