research Characterization of Human KAP24.1, A Cuticular Hair Keratin-Associated Protein with Unusual Amino Acid Composition and Repeat Structure
Scientists discovered a unique hair protein, KAP24.1, with a special structure, found only in the upper part of hair cuticles.
research Mice Lacking the Epidermal Retinol Dehydrogenases SDR16C5 and SDR16C6 Display Accelerated Hair Growth and Enlarged Meibomian Glands
Mice without certain skin enzymes have faster hair growth and bigger eye glands.
research DNMT1-Mediated Methylation Inhibits MicroRNA-214-3p and Promotes Hair Follicle Stem Cell Differentiation Into Adipogenic Lineages
DNMT1 helps turn hair follicle stem cells into fat cells by blocking a specific microRNA.
research Sulfation of Minoxidil by Multiple Human Cytosolic Sulfotransferases
Minoxidil breakdown varies by enzymes, affecting hair loss treatment effectiveness.
research N-Terminal Functional Domain of Gasdermin A3 Regulates Mitochondrial Homeostasis via Mitochondrial Targeting
Mutations in Gasdermin A3 cause skin inflammation and hair loss by disrupting mitochondria.
research Bidirectional Binding Property of High Glycine–Tyrosine Keratin-Associated Protein Contributes to the Mechanical Strength and Shape of Hair
High glycine–tyrosine keratin-associated proteins help make hair strong and maintain its shape.
research Expression and Roles of Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory (StAR) Protein in Non-Classical, Extra-Adrenal, and Extra-Gonadal Cells and Tissues
The protein StAR is found in 17 different organs and can affect hair loss and brain functions, but its full role is not yet fully understood.
research Intracrinology and the Skin
DHEA stimulates skin oil glands and could help postmenopausal women, with potential for acne and excessive hair growth treatments.
research Glycome Profiling by Lectin Microarray Reveals Dynamic Glycan Alterations During Epidermal Stem Cell Aging
Aging changes sugar molecules on skin stem cells, which may affect their ability to repair skin.
