research Activation of TRPV3 Regulates Inflammatory Actions of Human Epidermal Keratinocytes
TRPV3 in skin cells causes inflammation and cell death.
research Hydrogen Sulfide Disturbs Actin Polymerization via S-Sulfhydration Resulting in Stunted Root Hair Growth
Hydrogen sulfide disrupts protein function and root hair growth in plants by modifying proteins.
research Two Distinct Signaling Pathways in Hair Cycle Induction: Stat3-Dependent and Independent Pathways
There are two ways to start hair growth: one needs Stat3 and the other does not, but both need PI3K activation.
research Controlled Delivery of T-box21 Small Interfering RNA Ameliorates Autoimmune Alopecia in a C3H/HeJ Mouse Model
Controlled delivery of specific RNA and IL-4 restored hair growth in mice with autoimmune alopecia.
research The RAIG Family Member, GPRC5D, Is Associated With Hard-Keratinized Structures
