The document concludes that the human keratin gene cluster is complex, with a need for updated naming to reflect over 50 functional genes important for hair and skin biology.
research Convergent Evolution of Cysteine-Rich Keratins in Hard Skin Appendages of Terrestrial Vertebrates
Cysteine-rich keratins evolved independently in mammals, reptiles, and birds for hard skin structures like hair, claws, and feathers.
research Molecular principles of hair follicle induction and morphogenesis
Hair follicle development is controlled by interactions between skin tissues and specific molecular signals.
research Macrophages Contribute to the Cyclic Activation of Adult Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Macrophages help activate hair follicle stem cells, affecting hair growth and skin repair.
research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
research The Paradox of p53: What, How, and Why?
The p53 protein has complex, sometimes contradictory functions, including tumor suppression and promoting cell survival.
research Establishment of an in vitro organoid model of dermal papilla of human hair follicle
Researchers developed a 3D model of human hair follicle cells that can help understand hair growth and test new hair loss treatments.
research The proteomic profile of hair damage
Bleaching hair damages protein structure, especially keratin, leading to weakened hair.
research Localisation and regulation of cholesterol transporters in the human hair follicle: mapping changes across the hair cycle
Cholesterol transport in hair follicles decreases from growth to regression phase.
research Impaired differentiation potential of CD34-positive cells derived from mouse hair follicles after long-term culture
Mouse hair follicle stem cells lose their ability to change into different cell types after being grown for a long time.
research ERK1/2 Pathway Is Involved in the Enhancement of Fatty Acids from Phaeodactylum tricornutum Extract (PTE) on Hair Follicle Cell Proliferation
Phaeodactylum tricornutum extract helps hair follicle cells grow by activating the ERK1/2 pathway.
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 Abstracts
New treatments and diagnostic methods for various animal skin conditions showed promising results.
research Wnt and Notch signaling pathway involved in wound healing by targeting c-Myc and Hes1 separately
Wnt and Notch signaling help wound healing by promoting cell growth and regulating cell differentiation.
research Dynamic Signals for Hair Follicle Development and Regeneration
Certain signals and genes play a key role in hair growth and regeneration, and understanding these could lead to new treatments for skin regeneration.
research Conditional Activin Receptor Type 1B (Acvr1b) Knockout Mice Reveal Hair Loss Abnormality
Disrupting Acvr1b in mice causes severe hair loss and thicker skin.
research Transcriptome and proteome characterization of surface ectoderm cells differentiated from human iPSCs
Blocking TGFβ-RI signaling enhances surface ectoderm differentiation from human stem cells.
research Structural optimization of pep7, a small peptide extracted from epimorphin, for effective induction of hair follicle anagen
Modified pep7, named EPM peptide, effectively promotes hair growth at low concentrations and works well with minoxidil.
research Androgens downregulate BMP2 impairing the inductive role of dermal papilla cells on hair follicle stem cells differentiation
Androgens reduce BMP2, which weakens the ability of certain cells to help hair stem cells become different types of cells.
research Molecular Signaling and Nutritional Regulation in the Context of Poultry Feather Growth and Regeneration
Good feather growth in poultry needs the right balance of proteins, amino acids, minerals, and vitamins.
research Inherited Disorders of the Hair
The document explains the genetic causes and characteristics of inherited hair disorders.
research The functions of ocu-miR-205 in regulating hair follicle development in Rex rabbits
Ocu-miR-205 affects hair density in Rex rabbits by influencing cell processes and signaling pathways.
research Pathogenesis and clinical features of alopecia in epidermolysis bullosa: A systematic review
Alopecia in patients with epidermolysis bullosa varies in severity and is often caused by skin blistering or trauma.
research De Novo Production of Dermal Papilla Cells during the Anagen Phase of the Hair Cycle
New cells are added to the hair's dermal papilla during the active growth phase.
