research Induction of Transforming Growth Factor-Beta 1 by Androgen Is Mediated by Reactive Oxygen Species in Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells
Androgens increase a growth factor in hair cells by creating reactive oxygen species, and antioxidants might help treat hair loss.
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 Carbon Dots With Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine Applications
Carbon dots show promise for tissue repair and growth but need more research to solve current challenges.
research Interfollicular Epidermal Stem-Like Cells for the Recreation of the Hair Follicle Epithelial Compartment
Human skin cells with stem-like features can help create new hair follicles and sebaceous glands when combined with other cells.
research Adaptive Gelatin Microspheres Enhanced Stem Cell Delivery and Integration With Diabetic Wounds to Activate Skin Tissue Regeneration
Gelatin microspheres with stem cells speed up healing in diabetic wounds.
research Spermatozoa and Chronic Treatment with Finasteride: A TEM and FISH Study
Finasteride may negatively affect male fertility.
research Dermal Adipose Tissue Secretes HGF to Promote Human Hair Growth and Pigmentation
Fat under the skin releases HGF which helps hair grow and gain color.
research Neural Potential of a Stem Cell Population in the Hair Follicle
Stem cells in hair follicles can become various cell types, including neurons.
research Highlights From the Literature
Apoptosis, not oxidative stress, is linked to aging in mice with mtDNA mutations.
research Hair Follicle Associated Pluripotent Stem Cells Stimulate Hair Growth in Transplanted Mice
Stem cells from whiskers can be transplanted to stimulate hair growth.
research Reorganization of Hair Follicles in Human Skin Organ Culture Induced by Cultured Human Follicle-Derived Cells
Injected human hair follicle cells can create new, small hair follicles in skin cultures.
research A Novel Human Type II Cytokeratin, K6hf, Specifically Expressed in the Companion Layer of the Hair Follicle
K6hf is a unique protein found only in a specific layer of hair follicles.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Hair can't be reliably repaired once damaged; prevention and proper product use are key to maintaining hair health.
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 Size-Dependent Penetration of Nanoemulsions into Epidermis and Hair Follicles: Implications for Transdermal Delivery and Immunization
Smaller nanoemulsions can penetrate skin and hair follicles better, which may be useful for delivering drugs and vaccines through the skin.
research Role of Cholesterol Sulfate in Epidermal Structure and Function: Lessons from X-Linked Ichthyosis
Cholesterol sulfate buildup due to a genetic mutation disrupts the skin barrier, leading to the scaling skin seen in X-linked ichthyosis.
research Natural Bisbenzylisoquinoline Derivatives Protect Zebrafish Lateral Line Sensory Hair Cells from Aminoglycoside Toxicity
Some natural compounds can protect fish ear cells from damage by certain antibiotics without affecting the antibiotics' ability to fight infections.
research Characterization of a Cluster of Human High/Ultrahigh Sulfur Keratin-Associated Protein Genes Embedded in the Type I Keratin Gene Domain on Chromosome 17q12-21
A cluster of sulfur-rich hair protein genes was found on chromosome 17.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.
research Effect of Ethosomal Minoxidil on Dermal Delivery and Hair Cycle of C57BL/6 Mice
Ethosomal minoxidil improves hair growth by penetrating deeper into skin and shortening hair cycle.
research A Contemporary View on Felix Pinkus’ Concept of the Vitreous Membrane
The vitreous membrane in hair follicles changes shape during the hair cycle and may affect hair growth and nutrient exchange.
research Bioengineering of Hair Follicle-Like Structure for Validation of Hair Growth Promoting Compounds
The method can test hair growth products using a lab-made hair-like structure that responds to known treatments.
research Reactive Keratin Derivatives: A Promising Strategy for Covalent Binding to Hair
Modified keratin binds better to hair, especially bleached hair.
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 Complex X Chromosome Rearrangement Associated with Multiorgan Autoimmunity
A complex X chromosome rearrangement can increase the risk of multiple autoimmune diseases.
research Minoxidil Opens Mitochondrial KATP Channels and Confers Cardioprotection
Minoxidil protects heart and improves recovery.
research Two-Photon Microscopy for Intracutaneous Imaging of Stem Cell Activity in Mice
Two-photon microscopy effectively tracks live stem cell activity in mouse skin with minimal harm and clear images.
