research Distinct Mechanisms Underlie Pattern Formation in the Skin and Skin Appendages
Different processes create patterns in skin and things like hair and feathers.
research Phototrichogram Analysis of Normal Scalp Hair Characteristics with Aging
Hair gets thinner and grayer with age, and density decreases more in men on top and in women on top and back.
research Characterization and Causal Investigations of an Alopecia Syndrome in Australian Fur Seals (Arctocephalus pusillus doriferus)
Young female Australian fur seals are losing hair due to low tyrosine and zinc levels and high pollution exposure.
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 Morpho-Regulation in Diverse Chicken Feather Formation: Integrating Branching Modules and Sex Hormone-Dependent Morpho-Regulatory Modules
Sex hormones, especially estradiol, can change chicken feather shapes and colors.
research The Melanocyte Photosensory System in Human Skin
Human skin's melanocytes respond to light by changing shape, producing pigments and hormones, which may affect sleep patterns.
research Cleave But Not Leave: Astrotactin Proteins in Development and Disease
Astrotactin proteins are important for brain and skin development and are linked to several neurodevelopmental disorders.
research In Vivo Evaluation of Insect Wax for Hair Growth Potential
Insect wax, especially its policosanol content, may help hair regrow by changing hair follicle phases and increasing nutrient supply.
research Ectodermal Organ Stem Cells: Morphogenesis, Population Regenerative Behavior, and Evolutionary Development
Different ectodermal organs like hair and feathers regenerate differently, with specific stem cells and signals involved in their growth and response to the environment.
research Specific Ectodermal Enhancers Control the Expression of Hoxc Genes in Developing Mammalian Integuments
The HoxC gene cluster and its enhancers are essential for developing hair and nails in mammals.
research Developmental Mechanisms Controlling Cell Fate Evolution
The conclusion is that grasping how cells determine their roles through evolution is key, with expected progress from new research models and genome editing.
