This study found that enzymatic conversion of Arg-51 in S100A3 protein to citrulline promotes homotetramer assembly, potentially increasing Ca²⁺ binding required for hair cuticular barrier formation.

Hair follicles have an enzyme that converts arginine to citrulline in proteins.

This review discusses the role of reactive oxygen species in regulating oscillating apoplastic pH gradients and growth in plant root hairs and pollen tubes, reporting no new experimental results.

This study identified two types of calcium in human scalp hair, with one type highly variable between individuals, potentially impacting the analysis of environmental and medical factors related to hair calcium.

This study suggests that a tip-focused gradient of intracellular G-actin concentration at the apex is crucial for root hair growth, and maintaining this gradient requires high calcium levels at the root hair tips.

This study indicates that activating K+ channels in dermal papilla cells alone may not promote hair growth, despite some openers being effective on certain channels.

This study found that minoxidil sulfate and pinacidil did not activate K channel currents in hair follicles, suggesting their effect on hair growth might occur through other mechanisms like increased blood flow.

This study used nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry to locate where calcium and copper are concentrated in colored hair, finding these metals particularly in the cuticle's sulfur-rich regions.

This study suggests that mammalian hair follicles may serve as a viable and non-invasive system for diagnosing traumatic brain injury, reflecting similar molecular responses observed in other tissues.

This study found that taxol induces apoptosis in dermal papilla cells, affecting protein expression related to biological processes and potentially contributing to taxol-induced alopecia.

This study concluded that drug-distribution measurements using micro-segmental hair analysis are effective for drowned bodies, as natural water containing divalent ions prevents drug washout from hair.

This review outlines the current understanding of how pH contributes to root hair development and reports no new experimental findings.

This study identified two types of calcium in human scalp hair shafts: easily removable calcium, likely as calcium soaps, and more stably bound calcium, possibly related to Ca-binding proteins.

This study focuses on improving the detection and characterization of an enzyme in guinea pig hair follicles that converts arginine to citrulline, highlighting challenges with assay sensitivity and reproducibility.

This study found that mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in epithelial cells is necessary for proper enamel formation and odontoblast differentiation in developing incisor teeth in K320E-Twinkle Epi mice.

In this study, an injectable alginate hydrogel with Fibronectin3 was developed, demonstrating high biocompatibility and ability to enhance wound healing in mice, suggesting promise for clinical application in treating irregular wounds.

This study reviews the complex keratinization process in the epidermis, detailing how various factors regulate keratinocyte differentiation and emphasizing the importance of understanding this process for the pathogenesis of skin disorders like ichthyoses and psoriasis.

This study found that finasteride may affect Ca 2+ signalling in human sperm by interacting with the PGE 1 -binding site, but its impact on fertilization requires further investigation.

This study found that SNPs in the MVK, ARPC1B, and CA2 genes may indicate a genetic predisposition for severe acne related to steroidogenesis.

This study found that neither caffeine nor N,N-dimethylglycine treatments were toxic to balding or nonbalding dermal papilla cells and could stimulate calcium influx, indicating treatment responsiveness.

In this study, researchers found that Derinat treatment in mice maintained the hair cycle in the anagen phase and reduced TRPCs-mediated intracellular ROS accumulation, potentially improving hair growth by altering the skin microenvironment.

This study found that a positive feedback loop involving RHD2, reactive oxygen species, and calcium ions helps maintain root hair growth sites and influences cell shape in Arabidopsis thaliana.

In this retrospective study, cyproterone acetate treatment in late-pubertal trans-girls was found to be generally safe and led to mild feminizing effects, with more rapid feminization occurring when combined with estrogens.

This study observed that most hirsute patients on combined cyproterone acetate and 'Diane' therapy experienced a reduction in hair growth, with hair becoming softer, thinner, and lighter in color over 12 months.

This study reported that microparticle-loaded emulsions containing caffeic acid achieved more homogeneous distribution and prolonged release in hair follicles, suggesting potential for effective folliculitis treatment.

This study suggests that minoxidil sulfate and pinacidil do not activate K channel currents in hair follicles, indicating their hair growth effects may occur through other mechanisms like increased blood flow.

This study found that overexpression of the calcium sensing receptor in transgenic mice accelerates epidermal differentiation and hair growth, suggesting its role in enhancing calcium signaling and interaction with other pathways.

This study found that TRPV3 activation in human sebocytes inhibits lipid synthesis and triggers proinflammatory cytokine expression, suggesting a role in the pathogenesis of dry skin-associated inflammatory dermatoses.

This study found that Pannexin 3 plays a crucial role in skin development by regulating the transcription factor Epiprofin, affecting keratinocyte differentiation and hair follicle regeneration in mice.

This study identified NM_026333 as a potential anti-aging gene that, when induced, may alleviate proton-induced aging symptoms in CF6-overexpressing and high salt-fed mice.
