Scientists successfully created mouse hair proteins in the lab, which are stable and similar to natural hair.
research [Electrophoretic studies of acid mucopolysaccharides in skin, prekeratin of hair follicles and in keratoses of wool].
Chondroitin sulphate is more abundant than hyaluronic acid in skin and hair samples, except in gamma-keratosis.
research 25 Hydroxyvitamin D 1 α-Hydroxylase Is Required for Optimal Epidermal Differentiation and Permeability Barrier Homeostasis
The enzyme 25 Hydroxyvitamin D 1 α-Hydroxylase is essential for healthy skin and recovery after skin damage.
research Boosting and Rescuing Epidermal Superior Population from Fresh Keratinocyte Cultures
The method increases stem-like cells for better skin regeneration.
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 Subpopulations of dermal skin fibroblasts secrete distinct extracellular matrix: implications for using skin substitutes in the clinic
Different skin cells produce unique materials, which can improve skin substitutes for healing.
research Defining a Region of the Human Keratin 6a Gene That Confers Inducible Expression in Stratified Epithelia of Transgenic Mice
The human keratin 6a gene's specific sequences trigger expression in skin layers after injury.
research Study on kerantin association protein 8.1 gene expression of Liaoning cashere goats in skin and hair follicle
Higher expression of the keratin-associated protein 8.1 gene in Liaoning cashmere goats is linked to finer cashmere fibers.
research ILK modulates epithelial polarity and matrix formation in hair follicles
ILK is essential for proper hair follicle development and structure.
research A Clinical Trial Shows Improvement in Skin Collagen, Hydration, Elasticity, Wrinkles, Scalp, and Hair Condition following 12‐Week Oral Intake of a Supplement Containing Hydrolysed Collagen
Taking a collagen and vitamin C supplement improves skin and hair health.
research The expanding significance of keratin intermediate filaments in normal and diseased epithelia
Keratin proteins are increasingly recognized as important for cell health and are linked to many diseases.
research Immunofluorescence analysis of the basement membrane zone components in human anagen hair follicles
The upper hair follicle is stable, while the lower part allows movement during hair growth.
research Expression of Plectin-1 and Trichohyalin in Human Tongue Cancer Cells
Tongue cancer cells show more plectin-1 than non-cancer cells, but both have similar levels of trichohyalin.
research Nucleocytoplasmic Communication in Progeria
Defective nuclear transport may cause gene expression changes in Progeria.
research MLPH-mediated activation of dermal papilla IGF-1 signaling drives human hair shaft elongation and anagen induction
MLPH helps hair grow by activating IGF-1 signaling in hair cells.
research Dual-Action Icariin-Containing Thermosensitive Hydrogel for Wound Macrophage Polarization and Hair-Follicle Neogenesis
The gel with icariin speeds up wound healing, reduces scarring, and helps hair growth by controlling BMP4 signaling. It also reduces inflammation and improves wound quality in mice, adapts to different wound shapes, and gradually releases icariin to aid healing. It also prevents too much collagen and myofibroblast formation during skin healing.
research Special Biochemical Features of the Hair Follicle
Hair follicles have unique proteins that vary by species and are influenced by nutrition.
