630-660 / 1000+ resultsresearch Monilethrix: Mutational Hotspot in the Helix Termination Motif of the Human Hair Basic Keratin 6
Monilethrix severity varies and may be influenced by other genetic or environmental factors.
research 1438 KLF4 maintains hair follicle stem cell quiescence
KLF4 is important for keeping hair follicle stem cells inactive.
research GTL1 is required for a robust root hair growth response to avoid nutrient overloading
GTL1 is needed to control root hair growth and prevent problems when there are too many nutrients.
research In This Issue
Hedgehog signaling is crucial for hair development, cadherins affect cell adhesion, neutrophils play a role in skin lesions, and BP230 autoantibodies impact skin stability.

research Hydrogen Sulfide Disturbs Actin Polymerization via S-Sulfhydration Resulting in Stunted Root Hair Growth
Hydrogen sulfide disrupts protein function and root hair growth in plants by modifying proteins.
research Fatal autoimmunity results from the conditional deletion of Snai2 and Snai3
Deleting Snai2 and Snai3 causes fatal autoimmunity.
research Celsr1 and Celsr2 exhibit distinct adhesive interactions and contributions to planar cell polarity
