research 5 Diverse Skin Type Considerations and Applications for Nonsurgical Combinations
Tailored nonsurgical cosmetic procedures are crucial for safely treating diverse skin types, especially skin of color.
research Adipose-Derived Stem Cells and Their Secretory Factors for Skin Aging and Hair Loss
Fat-derived stem cells and their secretions show promise for treating skin aging and hair loss.
research Hair follicle regeneration in vitro
Hair growth can be induced by transplanting certain cells, but these cells lose their properties during culturing. The best cell interaction happens in a liquid medium under gravity, and using collagen doesn't help. Future research could focus on using growth factors to stimulate these cells.
research The first case report of kerion-type scalp mycosis caused by Aspergillus protuberus
A rare fungal infection on a child's scalp was successfully treated with antifungal medication.
research Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Mouse Hair Follicles Inhibit the Development of Type 1 Diabetes
Mouse hair follicle stem cells can help prevent Type 1 Diabetes.
research Melanogenesis is coupled to murine anagen: Toward new concepts for the role of melanocytes and the regulation of melanogenesis in hair growth
Hair color production in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Hair follicle differentiation and regulation.
Hair follicle growth and development are controlled by specific genes and molecular signals.
research Prolactin—a novel neuroendocrine regulator of human keratin expressionin situ
Prolactin affects the production of different keratins in human hair, which could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research Influence of TRPV3 mutation on hair growth cycle in mice
The TRPV3 gene mutation affects hair growth by keeping mice in the growth phase longer, which could help treat hair loss.
research Characterization of the Human Hair Keratin–Associated Protein 2 (KRTAP2) Gene Family
KRTAP2 genes are crucial for hair structure and may impact hair disorders and treatments.
research Novel mutations in the keratin-74 (KRT74) gene underlie autosomal dominant woolly hair/hypotrichosis in Pakistani families
research Vitamin D3Analogs Stimulate Hair Growth in Nude Mice
Vitamin D3 analogs can promote hair growth in mice genetically prone to hair loss.
research Multi-potentiality of a new immortalized epithelial stem cell line derived from human hair follicles
Scientists created a long-lasting stem cell line from human hair that can turn into different skin and hair cell types.
research Genetically separable determinants of hair keratin gene expression
Mutations in the Whn gene affect hair keratin gene expression differently.
research Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Hair Follicle–Specific Gene, Hacl-1
Researchers found a new gene, hacl-1, that is active in mouse hair follicles during hair growth and may be important for hair biology.
research Hoxc13/β-catenin Correlation with Hair Follicle Activity in Cashmere Goat
Hoxc13 is linked to seasonal hair growth in Cashmere goats and is affected by melatonin.
research Identification of Telogen Markers Underscores that Telogen Is Far from a Quiescent Hair Cycle Phase
Telogen is an active phase with important biological processes, not a resting phase.
research The inconsistent regulation of HOXC13 on different keratins and the regulation mechanism on HOXC13 in cashmere goat (Capra hircus)
The HOXC13 gene affects different hair proteins in cashmere goats in varied ways and is controlled by a feedback loop and other factors.
research Thiolated and PEGylated silica nanoparticle delivery to hair follicles
Using longer PEG chains helps nanoparticles penetrate hair follicles better, improving drug delivery for conditions like alopecia.
research Cross-linked features of mouse pelage hair resistant to detergent extraction
Some mutant mice have hair with abnormal cross-linking, mainly in the cuticle, not affecting other hair parts.
research Characterization of the Promoter Regions of Two Sheep Keratin-Associated Protein Genes for Hair Cortex-Specific Expression
The KRTAP11-1 gene promoter is crucial for specific expression in sheep wool cortex.
research Effects of Food-Derived Collagen Peptides on the Expression of Keratin and Keratin-Associated Protein Genes in the Mouse Skin
Eating collagen peptides may help with skin and hair growth.
research Hair Keratin
research Evaluation and formulation of Spirulina platensis proteins for potential applications in hair care products
Spirulina proteins can improve hair smoothness and strength in hair care products.
research The topical penta-peptide Gly-Pro-Ile-Gly-Ser increases the proportion of thick hair in Japanese men with androgenetic alopecia
GPIGS peptide increases thick hair growth in balding Japanese men.
research A discrete transition zone between cuticle and cortex layers of a human hair fibre: changes observed in the presence of breast cancer
Breast cancer alters specific molecular structures in hair, which revert after cancer removal.
research Bio‐active designed peptide for hair keratin strengthening
Pal-KCV peptide strengthens hair and reduces breakage by up to 52%.
research IL-33 Contributes to the Pathological Changes of Hair Follicles in Psoriasis: A Potential Target for Psoriatic Alopecia
IL-33 is linked to hair follicle damage in psoriasis and could be a treatment target for hair loss in this condition.
research Peer Review #2 of "Human hair shaft proteomic profiling: individual differences, site specificity and cuticle analysis (v0.1)"
The research found that people's hair proteins vary, especially by ethnicity and body part, which could help identify individuals in forensic science.
