690-720 / 1000+ resultsresearch Expression of hair keratins in the adult nail unit: an immunohistochemical analysis of the onychogenesis in the proximal nail fold, matrix and nail bed
The ventral matrix is the main source of the nail plate.
research 1250 Development of an ex vivo human skin explant model to examine candidate gene functions in the hair follicle and epidermis
The model can effectively test gene functions and drug responses in human skin.
research The clinical features and histopathologic patterns of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides in a series of 38 cases
Recognizing diverse presentations of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides is crucial to avoid diagnostic errors.
research Clinicopathologic and trichoscopic features of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans: A case series study
The study concluded that key signs of Keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans are changes in terminal hair and vellus hair follicles, which likely start the inflammation and damage to hair follicles.
research Abstract 5020: Characterization of epidermal stem cells in SKH1 hairless mice, a widely used mouse model to investigate ultraviolet radiation carcinogenesis.
SKH1 hairless mice have identifiable epidermal stem cells with specific markers.
research Growth and differentiation of human keratinocytes cultured on eye lens capsules
Eye lens capsules are the best for growing human skin cells.
research A Possible Role of Keratinocytes of Skin and Mucous Membranes in Prion Propagation and Transmission
Skin cells might help spread prion diseases like Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.
research Dermal papilla cells from human hair follicles secrete factors (e.g. VEGF) mitogenic for endothelial cells.
Dermal papilla cells help hair growth by releasing growth-promoting factors.
research Potency of implanting microencapsulated human hair dermal papilla cells to induce hair follicle formation
Microencapsulated human hair cells can successfully grow new hair follicles in mice.
research Residents’Corner: Multiple Pyogenic Granuloma-like Lesions Following Hair Transplantation
A man developed unusual growths after a hair transplant, which were treated successfully with no recurrence after a month.
research Eyebrow reconstruction in dormant keratosis pilaris atrophicans
Eyebrow reconstruction using hair follicle grafts was successful in a man with a benign hereditary disorder affecting his eyebrows.
research A model system to analyse the ability of human keratinocytes to form hair follicles
Scientists developed a system to study human hair growth using skin cells, which could help understand hair development and improve skin substitutes for medical use.
research Surgical treatment of pilomatrix carcinoma: a systematic review
Mohs micrographic surgery is more effective than surgical excision for treating pilomatrix carcinoma, with no recurrences.
research Expression of Potential Dermal Progenitor Cell Markers in the Tumour and Stroma of Skin Adnexal Malignant and Benign Tumours
Markers CRABP1, Nestin, and Ephrin B2 are present in skin cancer environments and may influence their development.
research Regulation of PDGF and PDGF receptor in cultured dermal papilla cells and follicular keratinocytes of the human hair follicle
PDGF signaling may play a role in hair growth cycle regulation.
research Reconstruction of Tissue Engineered Skin Substitute Containing Appendages Using Dermal Papillae Cells And Keratinocytes
Using dermal papillae cells and keratinocytes in skin substitutes speeds up healing and helps form hair follicles and glands.
research CD10 for the distinct differential diagnosis of basal cell carcinoma and benign tumours of cutaneous appendages originating from hair follicle.
CD10 helps distinguish between basal cell carcinoma and benign hair follicle tumors.
research A Rare Case of Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans Affecting a Female Child
A girl with a rare skin condition called Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans showed no significant improvement with treatment.
