Some chemicals and drugs can cause hair loss, which usually grows back after stopping the treatment.
research Overexpression of Activin A in the Skin of Transgenic Mice Reveals New Activities in Epidermal Morphogenesis, Dermal Fibrosis, and Wound Repair
Overexpression of activin A in mice skin causes skin thickening, fibrosis, and improved wound healing.
research Activin Controls Skin Morphogenesis and Wound Repair Predominantly via Stromal Cells and in a Concentration-Dependent Manner via Keratinocytes
Activin helps skin growth and healing mainly through stromal cells and affects keratinocytes based on its amount.
research Specific Receptor Detection by a Functional Keratinocyte Growth Factor-Immunoglobulin Chimera
A new protein was made to detect specific skin cell growth receptors and worked in normal skin but not in skin cancer cells.
research Loss of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Human Alopecia Hair Follicles
Hair follicles in people with alopecia have lower levels of a key blood vessel growth protein.
research Plants Producing Ribosome-Inactivating Proteins in Traditional Medicine
Some plants used in traditional medicine may help treat cancer because they contain proteins that can inactivate ribosomes.
research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.
research Keratinocyte-Derived Follistatin Regulates Epidermal Homeostasis and Wound Repair
Activin activation in skin cells speeds up wound healing without affecting scar quality.
research Crystalline Cataract and Uncombable Hair Syndrome in a 7-Year-Old Girl
The study found no common cause for a girl's crystalline cataract and uncombable hair, suggesting their co-occurrence might be coincidental.
research Analysis of Hidradenitis Suppurativa-Linked Mutations in Four Genes and the Effects of PSEN1-P242LfsX11 on Cytokine and Chemokine Expression in Macrophages
The document concludes that certain mutations may contribute to the inflammation in hidradenitis suppurativa and suggests that targeting TNFα could be a treatment strategy.
research The Expression of Vitamin D-Upregulated Protein 1 in Skin and Its Interaction with Sciellin in Cultured Keratinocytes
VDUP1 is found in skin and hair follicles, interacts with sciellin, and may help regulate skin cell differentiation.
research The Human Type II Keratin Gene Cluster on Chromosome 12q13.13: Final Count or Hidden Secrets?
The document concludes that the human keratin gene cluster is complex, with a need for updated naming to reflect over 50 functional genes important for hair and skin biology.
research Structural Changes of Hair Shaft After Application of Chemical Hair Straighteners: Clinical and Histopathological Study
Chemical hair straightening improves smoothness and shine but may cause side effects, suggesting a need for safer methods.
research Enzymatic Method for Assessing Hair Damage with Reduction and Subsequent Oxidation
Permed hair degrades faster and shows more damage after protease treatment compared to untreated hair.
research Hair Growth Promoting Activity of Discarded Biocomposite Keratin Extract
Keratin extract from human hair was found to promote hair growth in mice.
research Shampoo, Conditioner, and Hair Washing
Dermatologists should learn more about shampoos to better treat hair and scalp issues.
research Treatment of Pseudofolliculitis Barbae

research Hair Care and Cosmetics
Hair care products are important for appearance and self-esteem, and choosing the right ones can help maintain healthy hair.
research What Factors Play a Role in Unhealthy Hair?
Environmental, chemical, mechanical, and personal health factors can all damage hair and contribute to hair loss or changes in hair quality.
research Properties of Partially Extracted Hairs and Their Degradability by Proteases
Mf-rich hair degrades more than Ma-rich hair, especially with Proteinase K.
research Plants Used in Cosmetics
Natural products in cosmetics are beneficial for skin and hair care with low toxicity.
research Acidic and Basic Hair/Nail (Hard) Keratins: Their Colocalization in Upper Cortical and Cuticle Cells of the Human Hair Follicle and Their Relationship to Soft Keratins
Hair and nail cells share similar proteins, indicating a common differentiation pathway.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
