research Multi‐tasking epidermal stem cells: Beyond epidermal maintenance
Epidermal stem cells have various roles in skin beyond just maintenance, including forming specialized structures and aiding in skin repair and regeneration.
research Is Propionibacterium acnes associated with hair casts and alopecia?
Propionibacterium acnes might be linked to hair casts and possibly alopecia.
research Hair casts or pseudonits
Hair casts, also called pseudonits, are often mistaken for other conditions.
research Investigation of hair shaft in seborrheic dermatitis using atomic force microscopy
Hair from people with seborrheic dermatitis is thicker scaled, more damaged, and thinner than healthy hair, and atomic force microscopy can help monitor the condition.
research A model system for long-term serum-free suspension organ culture of human fetal tissues: experiments on digits and skin from multiple body regions
Scientists developed a method to grow human fetal skin and digits in a lab for 3-4 weeks, which could help study skin features and understand genetic interactions in tissue formation.
research Exploring caspase functions in mouse models
Caspases affect many cell functions and could help treat various diseases.
research What’s New in the Histologic Evaluation of Alopecia and Hair-Related Disorders?
New biopsy techniques and tools improve alopecia diagnosis, and both too much and too little selenium can cause hair loss.
research Erosive Pustular Dermatosis of the Scalp
Erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp is a rare condition that causes scarring hair loss, mainly in older women, and requires ongoing treatment.
research SUMMARIES OF PAPERS
The document concludes that secondary syphilis cases are increasing and often misdiagnosed, pityriasis rubra pilaris can be distinguished from psoriasis by skin cell features, and different skin layers produce specific components during skin repair.
research Cornification
Cornification is the process where living skin cells die to create a protective barrier, and problems with it can cause skin diseases.
research Hair-follicle-associated pluripotent (HAP) stem cells
HAP stem cells can repair nerves and spinal cords by becoming Schwann cells.
research Hair Keratin Associated Proteins: Characterization of a Second High Sulfur KAP Gene Domain on Human Chromosome 2111In fond memory of Dr Peter Steinert.
A second domain of high sulfur KAP genes on chromosome 21q23 is crucial for hair structure.
research Expression of type I hair keratins in follicular tumours
Pilomatrixomas likely originate from the hair matrix due to changes in hair keratin expression.
research Expression of SPARC (secreted protein acidic rich in cysteine) throughout the hair cycle in rats
SPARC likely aids in tissue remodeling during the hair cycle, not in starting new hair growth phases.
research Keratin 17 mutations cause either steatocystoma multiplex or pachyonychia congenita type 2
Keratin 17 gene mutations cause both steatocystoma multiplex and pachyonychia congenita type 2.
research Skin Keratins
Keratins are important for skin cell health and their problems can cause diseases.
research Differentiation of the basal cell epithelioma-like changes overlying dermatofibroma.
Basal cell epithelioma-like changes are most similar to normal basal cells.
research The existence of a linear system consisting of sympathetic endings in rat skin
Rat skin has a linear system of nerve fibers linked to hair follicles and muscles.
research Ornithine decarboxylase expression in cutaneous papillomas in SENCAR mice is associated with altered expression of keratins 1 and 10.
High ODC and low K1 and K10 may indicate early skin tumors in mice.
research Architecture of Reconstructed Epidermis on Collagen Lattices Varies according to the Method Used: A Comparative Study
The method and source of keratinocytes affect the structure of reconstructed skin.
research Keratins: the hair shaft's backbone revealed
Keratins are crucial for hair strength, and mutations in certain keratin genes cause hair disorders.
research Keratins and skin disease
Keratin mutations cause skin diseases and could lead to new treatments.
research Distribution of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors in Rat Tissues During Embryonic Skin Development, Hair Formation, and the Adult Hair Growth Cycle
research Characterization of a Cluster of Human High/Ultrahigh Sulfur Keratin-associated Protein Genes Embedded in the Type I Keratin Gene Domain on Chromosome 17q12-21
A cluster of sulfur-rich hair protein genes was found on chromosome 17.
research K15 & Id3 expression in intact and regenerating adult vibrissae rodent hair follicles
K15 and Id3 are important in hair follicle regeneration, with K15 increasing in early stages and Id3 responding later.
research Dermoscopic features of infundibular keratinising acanthomas and follicular cysts: Description, assessment and histopathological correlation
Dermoscopy is useful for identifying skin lesions in dogs, with specific features distinguishing infundibular keratinising acanthomas from follicular cysts.
research P63 expression pattern during rat epidermis morphogenesis and the role of p63 as a marker for epidermal stem cells
P63 is a marker for epidermal stem cells in rats.
research Structural behavior of keratin-associated protein 8.1 in human hair as revealed by a monoclonal antibody
KAP8.1 protein is crucial for hair structure and interacts with keratin 85.
research Immunohistochemical localization of cytokeratins and involucrin in calcifying epithelioma: comparative studies with normal skin
Calcifying epithelioma cells can differentiate into hair cortex and outer root sheath.
