research EZH2-Mediated Inhibition of MicroRNA-22 Promotes Differentiation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells by Elevating STK40 Expression
The protein EZH2 blocks microRNA-22, increasing STK40 protein, which helps hair follicle stem cells change and grow hair.
research Effect of Equilibrium pH on the Structure and Properties of Bleach-Damaged Human Hair Fibers
Hair's structure and properties change with pH; acidic pH maintains strength and less swelling, while alkaline pH increases water content and swelling.
research Ultrastructural Characteristics of Neonate Scalp Hair
Neonate scalp hair is thinner, lacks a medulla, and has smaller follicles compared to adult hair.
research Ziehl-Neelsen's Stain for Skin Sections to Show Wool and Hair Follicles
Ziehl-Neelsen's stain helps identify different parts of hair in sheep and goats.
research Induction of Autophagy Improves Skin and Hair Conditions in Dogs with Underlying Diseases
Activating autophagy in dogs with certain diseases improves their skin and hair.
research Human Hair Keratin Hydrogel: Fabrication, Characterization, and Application
Keratin hydrogels from human hair show promise for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
research Cortical Cell Types and Intermediate Filament Arrangements Correlate with Fiber Curvature in Japanese Human Hair
Hair curvature in Japanese people is linked to specific cell types and filament arrangements in the hair cortex.
research Molecular Dissection of Mesenchymal–Epithelial Interactions in the Hair Follicle

research Hair Keratin KRT81 Is Expressed in Normal and Breast Cancer Cells and Contributes to Their Invasiveness
The hair keratin gene KRT81 is found in both normal and breast cancer cells and helps them invade surrounding tissues.
research Integral Hair Lipid in Human Hair Follicle
Human hair has a protective lipid layer that can be damaged by moisture and treatments, affecting hair growth and health.
research The Notch Intracellular Domain Has an RBPj-Independent Role During Mouse Hair Follicular Development
The Notch signaling pathway helps in mouse hair development through a noncanonical mechanism that does not rely on RBPj or transcription.
research Keratin 71 Mutations: From Water Dogs to Woolly Hair
A mutation in the KRT71 gene causes a hair disorder by disrupting hair follicle structure and texture.
research Exogenous Factors in Hair Disorders
Outside factors like grooming, chemicals, and the environment can damage hair and cause disorders.
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 The Keratins of the Human Beard Hair Medulla: The Riddle in the Middle
Human beard hair medulla contains a unique and complex mix of keratins not found in other human tissues.
research Tight Junction Barriers in Human Hair Follicles – Role of Claudin-1
Claudin-1 is important for the barrier function and growth of hair.
research Assessment on the Effects of Liposome-Encapsulated Thioglycolic Acid on Hair Perming
