A new training model using an orange helps surgeons practice parietal whorl hair transplants effectively.
research The microanatomy of the distal arrector pili: possible role for α1β1 and α5β1 integrins in mediating cell‐cell adhesion and anchorage to the extracellular matrix
The arrector pili muscle attaches to the extracellular matrix using α5β1 integrin and connects muscle cells using α1β1 integrin.
research A mutation in MAP2 is associated with prenatal hair follicle density
A mutation in the MAP2 gene causes reduced hair follicle density, leading to hairlessness.
research Serine-rich ultra high sulfur protein gene expression in murine hair and skin during the hair cycle.
Two specific genes are more active during hair growth in mice.
research Keratins: Dynamic, flexible structural proteins of epithelial cells
Keratin proteins in epithelial cells are dynamic and crucial for cell processes and disease understanding.

Rat vibrissae have sensory terminals with specific structures that help detect hair movements.
research In vitro hair follicle growth model for drug testing
Researchers developed a new method to test hair growth drugs and found that adult cells are best for hair growth, but the method needs improvement as it didn't create mature hair follicles.
research Control of pelage hair follicle development and cycling by complex interactions between follistatin and activin
Follistatin helps hair growth and cycling, while activin prevents it.

Finasteride, a drug that changes testosterone to a different hormone, was studied and its effects over time were modeled successfully.
research Human placental extract exerts hair growth-promoting effects through the GSK-3β signaling pathway in human dermal papilla cells
Human placental extract may help hair growth by affecting certain cell signals and could be more effective with minoxidil.
research CUBIC Protocol Visualizes Protein Expression at Single Cell Resolution in Whole Mount Skin Preparations
The CUBIC protocol allows detailed 3D visualization of proteins in mouse skin biopsies.
research 588 Skin fibroblast heterogeneity and plasticity are determined by the local niche
Mouse skin fibroblasts vary in function and adaptability based on their environment.
research Transdermal Permeation of Drugs in Various Animal Species
Pig skin is a good substitute for human skin to measure drug absorption, but differences in skin structure and enzymes across species must be considered.
research The mind-body problem; three equations and one solution represented by immaterial-material data
