450-480 / 1000+ results research Alopecia areata susceptibility variant in MHC region impacts expressions of genes contributing to hair keratinization and is involved in hair loss
A gene variant increases the risk of a type of hair loss by affecting hair protein production.
research Telomere dysfunction impairs epidermal stem cell specification and differentiation by disrupting BMP/pSmad/P63 signaling
Telomere damage affects skin and hair follicle stem cells by messing up important growth signals.
research The evolution of healthy skin to acne lesions: a longitudinal, in vivo evaluation with reflectance confocal microscopy and optical coherence tomography
Acne lesions start with changes in hair follicles and increase in inflammation, suggesting a cycle that could affect treatment strategies.
research Evolution of Trichocyte Keratins
Hair keratins evolved from ancient proteins, diversifying through gene changes, crucial for forming claws and later hair in mammals.
research Distribution of Glycolipid and Unsaturated Fatty Acids in Human Hair
Human hair has more unsaturated fats inside than on the surface, and certain lipids may help bind the outer and inner layers together.
research Morphology and ultrastructure of antler velvet hair and body hair from red deer (Cervus elaphus)
Antler velvet hair and body hair of red deer have different structures that help with protection and insulation.
research Monovalent antibody-conjugated lipid-polymer nanohybrids for active targeting to desmoglein 3 of keratinocytes to attenuate psoriasiform inflammation
The targeted nanohybrids effectively reduced psoriasis symptoms and improved skin health.
research Induced pluripotent stem cells from human hair follicle keratinocytes as a potential source for in vitro hair follicle cloning
Human hair follicles can be used to create stem cells that might help clone hair for treating hair loss or helping burn patients.
research The stumptailed macaque as a model for baldness: effects of minoxidil
Minoxidil promotes hair regrowth in early baldness stages and prevents baldness in non-bald scalps.
research A comparison of transcriptomic patterns measured in the skin of Chinese fine and coarse wool sheep breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research Erythropoietin promotes hair shaft growth in cultured human hair follicles and modulates hair growth in mice
Erythropoietin helps hair grow and could be a potential treatment for hair loss.
research Efficient In Vitro Transfection of Human Keratinocytes with an Adenovirus-Enhanced Receptor-Mediated System
The AVET system effectively delivers genes to human keratinocytes and may help treat skin diseases.

Scientists developed a system to study human hair growth using skin cells, which could help understand hair development and improve skin substitutes for medical use.
research Indian Hedgehog Controls Proliferation and Differentiation in Skin Tumorigenesis and Protects against Malignant Progression
Indian Hedgehog helps control skin cell growth and protects against aggressive skin cancer.
research Fine structure and immunocytochemistry of monotreme hairs, with emphasis on the inner root sheath and trichohyalin‐based cornification during hair evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research Severe Abnormalities in the Oral Mucosa Induced by Suprabasal Expression of Epidermal Keratin K10 in Transgenic Mice
Abnormal keratin expression in mice causes severe oral issues, affecting feeding.
research CD133-positive dermal papilla-derived Wnt ligands regulate postnatal hair growth
