research Hair matrix germinative epidermal cells confer follicle-inducing capabilities on dermal sheath and high passage papilla cells
Hair growth can be stimulated by combining certain skin cells, which can rejuvenate old cells and cause them to specialize in hair follicle creation.
research Cutaneous xanthomas with concurrent demodicosis and dermatophytosis in a cat
A cat with skin bumps and itching had high blood fats and skin infections, which improved with diet and medication changes.
research TRPV3 Ion Channel: From Gene to Pharmacology
The TRPV3 ion channel is important for skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin conditions.
research Comprehensive molecular and cellular studies suggest avian scutate scales are secondarily derived from feathers, and more distant from reptilian scales
Bird scales evolved from feathers, not reptile scales.
research Immunolocalization of a Histidine-Rich Epidermal Differentiation Protein in the Chicken Supports the Hypothesis of an Evolutionary Developmental Link between the Embryonic Subperiderm and Feather Barbs and Barbules
A specific protein in chicken embryos links early skin layers to feather development.
research The disrupted balance between hair follicles and sebaceous glands inHoxc13‐ablated rabbits
Rabbits lacking the Hoxc13 gene show similar hair and skin issues to humans with ECTD-9, making them good for research on this condition.
research Single-cell transcriptomics defines keratinocyte differentiation in avian scutate scales
The research identified two types of keratinocytes in chicken scales: one for hard scales and another for soft skin, with similarities to human skin differentiation.
research Chemical Danger in Hair Keratin Care
Hair keratin treatments can be harmful, potentially causing health issues like skin reactions and cancer.
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 Structural and Immunocytochemical Characterization of Keratinization in Vertebrate Epidermis and Epidermal Derivatives
Vertebrate skin evolved to be more specialized and complex, especially in land animals.
research Identification of reptilian genes encoding hair keratin-like proteins suggests a new scenario for the evolutionary origin of hair
Reptiles have genes similar to hair proteins, suggesting hair's genetic origins predate mammals.
research Involucrin: A Constituent of Cross-Linked Envelopes and Marker of Squamous Maturation
Involucrin is crucial for skin cell maturation and protection.
research Feather arrays are patterned by interacting signalling and cell density waves
Feather patterns in birds are shaped by signaling interactions and cell movements, with EDA/EDAR crucial for pattern formation.
research Comparative aspects of the inner root sheath in adult and developing hairs of mammals in relation to the evolution of hairs
The inner root sheath evolved to help hair grow safely through the skin in mammals.
research Extraction and Formulation of hydrolyzed-wool keratin solution for hair growth
Sheep wool keratin solution safely and effectively promotes hair growth.
research Comparative regenerative mechanisms across different mammalian tissues
Understanding different species' regeneration can improve mammalian healing.
research Perspectives of Alopecia behind the Regulation of Foxn1 Gene Exposes the Human Nude Phenotype
The gene Foxn1 is important for hair growth, and understanding it may lead to new alopecia treatments.
research An ERK-dependent molecular switch antagonizes fibrosis and promotes regeneration in spiny mice ( Acomys )
High levels of ERK activity are key for tissue regeneration in spiny mice, and activating ERK can potentially redirect scar-forming healing towards regenerative healing in mammals.
research Mediator 1 ablation induces enamel-to-hair lineage conversion in mice through enhancer dynamics
Removing Mediator 1 from certain mouse cells causes teeth to grow hair instead of enamel.
research The Multiple Consequences of Obesity
Obesity leads to physical, metabolic, reproductive issues, higher healthcare costs, and mental health problems.
research Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Both gene and non-gene areas of DNA evolved to make some mammals hairless.
research MELATONIN
Melatonin may help with sleep issues, depression, and cancer, but more research is needed.
research Ectodermal Organ Stem Cells: Morphogenesis, Population Regenerative Behavior, and Evo-Devo
Different ectodermal organs like hair and feathers regenerate differently, with specific stem cells and signals involved in their growth and response to the environment.
research CONTRIBUTIONS OF EXPERIMENTAL ANIMAL RESEARCH TO DERMATOLOGY
Animal research has greatly advanced dermatology.
research Cysteine and Glutamine level in hair shaft fractures patients
Cysteine strengthens hair, and glutamine fuels hair growth.
research Cloning of a Functional Vitamin D Receptor from the Lamprey (Petromyzon marinus), an Ancient Vertebrate Lacking a Calcified Skeleton and Teeth
Lampreys have a functional vitamin D receptor that may help detoxify harmful substances.
research Morpho‐regulation in diverse chicken feather formation: Integrating branching modules and sex hormone‐dependent morpho‐regulatory modules
Sex hormones, especially estradiol, can change chicken feather shapes and colors.
research Molecular evolution of HR, a gene that regulates the postnatal cycle of the hair follicle
Changes in the HR gene have influenced hair growth and may lead to hair loss conditions in humans.
research Distinct tooth regeneration systems deploy a conserved battery of genes
Different fish use the same genes to regrow teeth.
