Research
960-990 / 1000+ resultsresearch A protein kinase target of a PDK1 signalling pathway is involved in root hair growth in Arabidopsis
AGC2-1 protein is essential for root hair growth in Arabidopsis.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Acidic and basic hair/nail ("hard") keratins: their colocalization in upper cortical and cuticle cells of the human hair follicle and their relationship to "soft" keratins.
Hair and nail cells share similar proteins, indicating a common differentiation pathway.
research LB1609 The evolutionary trajectory of primate skin appendage traits
Humans evolved to have less hair and more sweat glands than chimpanzees and macaques.
research Functional redundancy of Frizzled 3 and Frizzled 6 in planar cell polarity control of mouse hair follicles
Frizzled 3 and Frizzled 6 together control the orientation of mouse hair follicles.
research 560 The molecular mechanism of PCE-DP, a novel brightening active ingredient
PCE-DP brightens skin and promotes hair growth by enhancing cell growth and reducing melanin uptake.
research Whole transcriptome sequencing of different hair types in inner Mongolian cashmere goats
Hair type differences in cashmere goats are linked to keratin and cytoskeletal organization.
research Basonuclin as a cell marker in the formation and cycling of the murine hair follicle
Basonuclin is crucial for hair follicle development and cycling in mice.
research Genome‐wide association study identifies variants associated with hair length in Brangus cattle
Scientists found genes linked to hair length in Brangus cattle that could help breed heat-tolerant cattle.
research Micro-mechanical approaches to characterize tip growth: Insights into root hair elasto-viscoplastic properties
Root hair growth mechanics depend on turgor pressure and cell wall properties.
research The substantial role of asymmetric hair follicle differentiation in determining hair shape with ethical/racial related diversity
Asymmetric hair follicle differentiation causes the unique shape of kinky hair.
research CBL1‐CIPK26‐mediated phosphorylation enhances activity of the NADPH oxidase RBOHC, but is dispensable for root hair growth
A specific protein complex increases the activity of a plant enzyme, but this action is not required for plant root hair growth.
research Contribution of GFP Expressing Dermal Papillae Cells to the Formation of Chimeric Embryos and their Survival in Uterine Environment
DP cells can help in hair growth and regenerative medicine.
research Integrated analysis of transcriptomes and proteomes reveals the molecular mechanisms underlying the development of Dorper sheep hair follicles

research Nucleation and growth of macrofibrils in trichocyte (hard-α) keratins
Sheet formation is key to macrofibril structure differences in wool.
research Structural Hierarchy of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratin proteins are crucial for hair growth and structure.
research Enhanced delivery of drugs into and across the skin by ethosomal carriers
Ethosomal carriers improve drug delivery through the skin better than traditional methods.
research Proanthocyanidins from Grape Seeds Promote Proliferation of Mouse Hair Follicle Cells In vitro and Convert Hair Cycle In vivo
Grape seed proanthocyanidins can promote hair growth.
research Isolation rearing-induced reduction of brain 5α-reductase expression: Relevance to dopaminergic impairments
Isolation stress in rats reduces brain enzyme levels, affecting dopamine function.
research The effect of treatment with an LH-RH agonist (Buserelin) on gonadal activity growth and bone maturation in children with central precocious puberty
Buserelin safely and effectively suppresses early puberty, potentially improving final height.
research Topical cyclosporine in male pattern alopecia
Topical cyclosporine led to significant hair growth in some men with male pattern baldness.
research Organ culture of human hair follicles in serum-free medium
Hair follicles can grow and increase DNA synthesis in a serum-free environment, and minoxidil sulphate boosts this process.
research Overexpression of the 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO) in the hippocampal dentate gyrus produced anxiolytic and antidepressant-like behavioural effects
Increasing TSPO in the brain reduces anxiety and depression.
research Novel modulatory effects of neurosteroids and benzodiazepines on excitatory and inhibitory neurons excitability: a multi-electrode array recording study
Neurosteroids and benzodiazepines reduce neuron excitability, with lasting effects on inhibitory neurons.
research Marine Health-Promoting Compounds: Recent Trends for Their Characterization and Human Applications
Seaweeds contain beneficial compounds with potential uses in food, cosmetics, and health, but more research is needed to improve extraction and safety.
research Seborrheic keratosis
Seborrheic keratosis is a common, harmless skin growth that can look like cancer, so it may need a biopsy.
research Increase in testosterone metabolism in the rat central nervous system by formalin-induced tonic pain
