Protein Kinase C Epsilon, Which Is Linked to Ultraviolet Radiation-Induced Development of Squamous Cell Carcinomas, Stimulates Rapid Turnover of Adult Hair Follicle Stem Cells

research Protein Kinase Cε, Which Is Linked to Ultraviolet Radiation-Induced Development of Squamous Cell Carcinomas, Stimulates Rapid Turnover of Adult Hair Follicle Stem Cells

10 citations , January 2013 in “Journal of skin cancer”

In this study, PKC ε transgenic mice exposed to ultraviolet radiation showed increased hair follicle stem cell frequency and altered gene expression compared to wild-type mice, suggesting a potential role in skin cancer susceptibility.

research Potential of silk proteins in cosmetics

November 2024 in “Journal of Scientific Agriculture”

This paper reviews the benefits of using silk proteins as natural ingredients in cosmetics, highlighting their potential for improving skin and hair health due to properties like antimicrobial activity, UV resistance, and enhanced moisture absorption.

research Crystallin Fusion Proteins Improve the Thermal Properties of Hair

7 citations , October 2019 in “Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology”

This study found that pretreatment with KP-Cryst fusion proteins effectively protected Asian and Caucasian virgin hair from thermal damage by maintaining higher water content and preventing structural changes during heat application.

research Fentanyl in hair. Chemical factors involved in accumulation and retention of fentanyl in hair after external exposure or in vivo deposition.

15 citations , July 1998 in “PubMed”
