750-780 / 1000+ resultsresearch Caffeine docking studies with keratin: Implications for its cosmetic applications
Caffeine may be good for hair growth and skin care because it binds well with keratin.
research The Secrets of Beautiful Hair: Why is it Flexible and Elastic?
Beautiful hair is flexible and elastic due to its unique double-layered structure and can be enhanced with succinic acid treatment.
research Deletion of the Sox21 gene drastically affects hair lipids
Deleting the Sox21 gene changes hair lipid composition and increases cholesterol sulfate levels.
research RAGE and Its Ligands in Melanoma
RAGE is a potential target for melanoma treatment, but its effectiveness is uncertain due to variable expression levels.
research A Novel Model System to Identify Cellular and Molecular Defects Underlying Rare Genetic Disorders
The new model helps understand and develop treatments for genetic skin disorders like AEC.
research Interaction of polypeptides with hair in different reducing environments
Small KP peptide improves hair without reducing agents, while larger proteins need them for better results.
research Tailored Effects of Plasma-Activated Water on Hair Structure Through Comparative Analysis of Nitrate-Rich and Peroxide-Rich Formulations Across Different Hair Types
Peroxide-rich plasma-activated water is gentler on hair than nitrate-rich formulations.
research Synthesis of a new amino acid derivative with long‐lasting hair shape control effects and elucidation of its mechanisms
A new amino acid derivative, ATS, improves hair texture and moisture, making it easier to straighten curly hair.
research Insights on the Hair Keratin Structure Under Different Drying Conditions
Drying hair with a microfiber towel better maintains hair strength and structure than using a cotton towel or blow-drier.
research Microinjury-Induced Tumor Necrosis Factor-α Surge Stimulates Hair Regeneration in Mice
Minor injuries to hair follicles can stimulate hair growth in mice by increasing a specific protein.
research To compare the sensitivity pattern of direct immunofluorescence of perilesional skin and plucked hair in pemphigus vulgaris

Bioengineered hair germs using special hydrogels can help regenerate hair follicles and treat hair loss.
research Scarring hair follicle destruction is driven by the collapse of EGFR-protected JAK-STAT1-sensitive stem cell immune privilege
A protein called EGFR protects hair follicle stem cells, and when it's disrupted, hair follicles can be damaged, but blocking certain pathways can restore hair growth.
research A Novel Marker of Tissue Junctions, Collagen XXII
Collagen XXII is a marker for tissue junctions, aiding in structural integrity and found in muscles, heart, skin, and arthritic joints.
research Regulation of Involucrin Gene Expression
Involucrin gene expression is controlled by specific proteins and signaling pathways.
research Type XVII collagen coordinates proliferation in the interfollicular epidermis
Type XVII collagen helps control skin cell growth and could be a target for anti-aging treatments.
research Toward understanding scarless skin wound healing and pathological scarring
Scarless healing is complex and influenced by genetics and environment, while better understanding could improve scar treatment.
research The structure of people’s hair
Hair's molecular structure is mostly consistent, but genetic differences affect lipid types, which could help diagnose diseases.
research Insulin-like growth factor 1 and hair growth
IGF-1 can boost hair growth by promoting cell growth and preventing cell death.
