research In-Silico Modelling of Transdermal Delivery of Macromolecule Drugs Assisted by a Skin Stretching Hypobaric Device
The simulation showed that hypobaric pressure improves drug delivery through the skin, but stretching alone doesn't fully explain the increase.
research Organization of microfibrils in keratin fibers studied by X-ray scattering
The study improved understanding of keratin fiber structure by showing consistent microfibril diameter but varying distances and electron density profiles.
research The Function of LPR1 is Controlled by an Element in the Promoter and is Independent of SUMO E3 Ligase SIZ1 in Response to Low Pi Stress in Arabidopsis thaliana
LPR1 regulates root growth under low phosphate stress independently of SIZ1 in Arabidopsis thaliana.
research Bioengineering a humanized acne microenvironment model: Proteomics analysis of host responses to Propionibacterium acnes infection in vivo
A new model helps study acne and test treatments.
research Azimuthal Scattering from Elliptical Hair Fibers
Light scatters differently from elliptical hair fibers than from circular ones, and a new model better predicts this behavior, especially for shiny highlights.
research Cutaneous Ultrastructural Features of the Flaky Skin (fsn) Mouse Mutation
The flaky skin mouse mutation is a natural model for studying human psoriasis.
research Mechanotransduction in Androgenetic Alopecia: An *In Silico* Repositioning Study of PIEZO1 + MLCK Axis Using Cofolding and Pilosebaceous Single-Cell Atlas Constraints
Targeting the PIEZO1 and MLCK axis may offer a new treatment for hair loss.
research Structural analysis of the outermost hair surface using TOF-SIMS with gas cluster ion beam sputtering
The hair's outermost surface has multiple layers of lipids and proteins.
research Trichostasis Spinulosa
The study found clear differences in lesion distribution and microscopic features among trichostasis spinulosa, keratosis pilaris, and eruptive vellus hair cysts.
research P5 Assembly of hair keratins in thansfected cultured cells
research Making Waves with Hairs
Skin patterns are formed by simple reaction-diffusion mechanisms.
research Plica polonica: Trichoscopic findings with a brief literature review
Plica polonica is a rare condition where hair becomes irreversibly tangled, and the treatment is to cut the matted hair.
research Structure and Mechanical Properties of Human Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filament Protein
Disulfide bonds make keratin in hair stronger and tougher.
research Polygenic control of the wavy coat of the NCT mouse: involvement of an intracisternal A particle insertional mutation of the protease, serine 53 (Prss53) gene, and a modifier gene
The wavy coat in NCT mice is caused by multiple genes, including a mutation in the Prss53 gene.
research Comparisons of mouse models for hair follicle reconstitution
The flap assay grows the most natural hair but takes the longest, the chamber assay is hard work but gives dense, normal hair, and the patch assay is quick but creates poorly oriented hair with some issues.
research The Molecular Architecture for the Intermediate Filaments of Hardα-Keratin Based on the Superlattice Data Obtained from a Study of Mammals Using Synchrotron Fibre Diffraction
Hard α-keratin has a universal molecular structure with a specific superlattice arrangement.
research The Intermediate Filament Architecture as Determined by X-Ray Diffraction Modeling of Hard α-Keratin
Hard α-keratin in hair has a unique, nonordered structure, different from other fibers.
research Single Root hair growth under constant force: insights into wall mechanics
Root hair growth slows under force, confirming a model of cell wall mechanics.
research Responses of hair follicle–associated structures to loss of planar cell polarity signaling
Loss of Fz6 disrupts hair follicle and associated structures' orientation.
research Mechanism of TAp73 inhibition by ΔNp63 and structural basis of p63/p73 hetero-tetramerization
ΔNp63α stops TAp73β from working in skin cancer by blocking its access to specific genes, not by directly interacting with it.
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 Structural Stability of Wild Type and Mutated α-Keratin Fragments: Molecular Dynamics and Free Energy Calculations
The Glu413Lys mutation in keratin affects hair stability, while Glu413Asp does not.
research Different effects of phospholipase Dζ2 and non‐specific phospholipase C4 on lipid remodeling and root hair growth in Arabidopsis response to phosphate deficiency
PLDζ2 and NPC4 have different roles in lipid changes and root hair growth in Arabidopsis under low phosphate, with PLDζ2 reducing root hair growth and NPC4 promoting it.
research The atypical ‘hippocampal’ glutamate receptor coupled to phospholipase D that controls stretch‐sensitivity in primary mechanosensory nerve endings is homomeric purely metabotropic GluK2
A special receptor in sensory nerve endings helps control how they respond to stretching.
