5 / 1000+ resultsresearch The Expanding Significance of Keratin Intermediate Filaments in Normal and Diseased Epithelia
Keratin proteins are increasingly recognized as important for cell health and are linked to many diseases.
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 Analysis of the Sheep Trichohyalin Gene: Potential Structural and Calcium-Binding Roles of Trichohyalin in the Hair Follicle
Trichohyalin in sheep hair follicles may help with structure and calcium binding.
research A 5'-Upstream Region of a Bovine Keratin 6 Gene Confers Tissue-Specific Expression and Hyperproliferation-Related Induction in Transgenic Mice
A specific gene region can control targeted and responsive gene expression in mice, useful for skin disorder treatments.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.

5 / 40 resultscommunity Microneedling and aloe vera to recruit stem cells.
Microneedling combined with aloe vera may stimulate dormant stem cells in hair loss areas. Minoxidil is also suggested for better results.
community TWIST-1 and the cure: Is it really that easy?
TWIST-1 gene's role in hair loss and potential as a treatment target. Inhibiting TWIST-1 may prolong hair growth and reduce hair follicle sensitivity to DHT.
community SAFFLOWER OIL good alternative for Minoxidil?
Safflower oil is suggested as an alternative to minoxidil for hair growth, with benefits including scalp conditioning and hair strength enhancement. Studies indicate it may also reverse scalp dermatitis, alopecia, and prevent premature grayness.
community Adipocyte lipolysis activates epithelial stem cells for hair regeneration through fatty acid metabolic signaling
Fatty acid metabolic signaling can activate epithelial stem cells for hair regeneration. Oleic and palmitoleic acids showed the best results, but practical application on humans remains uncertain.
community Finasteride only reduces scalp DHT by ~40%. Why does it work?
How Finasteride and Dutasteride help reduce hair loss by reducing the amount of DHT in scalp areas, as well as discussing factors such as sensitivity to DHT, 5α-reductase expression in different parts of the hair follicle, and scalp tension.
