research Gata6 Promotes Hair Follicle Progenitor Cell Renewal by Genome Maintenance During Proliferation
Gata6 is important for protecting hair growth cells from DNA damage and keeping normal hair growth.
research An Epistatic Effect of KRT25 on SP6 Is Involved in Curly Coat in Horses
The genes KRT25 and SP6 affect curly hair in horses, with KRT25 also causing hair loss. If both genes are mutated, the horse gets curly hair and hair loss. KRT25 can hide the effect of SP6.
research Convergent Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, showing complex skin evolution.
research Monilethrix: A Rare Hereditary Condition
Monilethrix is a rare genetic hair disorder that's hard to treat.
research Histogenesis of Keratoacanthoma: Histochemical and Immunohistochemical Study
Keratoacanthoma comes from hair follicle cells.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
research Anatomy and Physiology of Hair
Hair is important for protection, social interaction, and temperature control, and is made of a growth cycle-influenced follicle and a complex shaft.
research Alopecia in a Viable Phospholipase C Delta 1 and Phospholipase C Delta 3 Double Mutant
Mutations in Plcd1 and Plcd3 together cause severe hair loss in mice.
research Spatiotemporal Expression Characterization of KRTAP6 Family Genes and Its Effect on Wool Traits
KRTAP6 genes affect wool quality in sheep.
research Desmoglein 4 Is Regulated by Transcription Factors Implicated in Hair Shaft Differentiation
Desmoglein 4 is controlled by specific proteins that affect hair growth.
research The Molecular Anatomy of Cashmere Goat Hair Follicle During Cytodifferentiation Stage
Understanding hair follicle development can help improve cashmere quality.
research Monilethrix: Case Report of a Rare Disease
Monilethrix causes fragile, patchy hair loss.
research Beta-Caryophyllene Enhances Wound Healing Through Multiple Routes
Beta-caryophyllene helps improve wound healing in mice, especially in females.
research Beta-Caryophyllene Enhances Wound Healing Through Multiple Routes
Beta-caryophyllene, found in essential oils, helps wounds heal better in multiple ways.
research In Vivo Imaging of Mammary Epithelial Cell Dynamics in Response to Lineage-Biased Wnt/β-Catenin Activation
Activating β-catenin in mammary cells leads to changes that cause early-stage abnormal growths similar to skin structures.
research Evolution of Hard Proteins in the Sauropsid Integument in Relation to the Cornification of Skin Derivatives in Amniotes
Hard skin features like scales, feathers, and hair evolved through specific protein changes in different animal groups.
research Human Clinical Phenotype Associated With FOXN1 Mutations
FOXN1 mutations cause severe immunodeficiency, hair loss, nail issues, and thymus defects.
research Single-Cell Transcriptomics Defines Keratinocyte Differentiation in Avian Scutate Scales
The research identified two types of keratinocytes in chicken scales: one for hard scales and another for soft skin, with similarities to human skin differentiation.
research Co-Occurrence of Monilethrix and Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
The girl has both monilethrix and Type 1 diabetes, but no link between the two conditions is known.
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 Drug Discovery for Alopecia: Gone Today, Hair Tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research Pathobiology of Chemotherapy-Induced Hair Loss
Chemotherapy causes hair loss by damaging hair follicles and stem cells, with more research needed for prevention and treatment.
research Trichoscopy in Hair Shaft Disorders
Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing hair disorders without pulling out hair.
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 Bone Morphogenetic Proteins and Their Antagonists in Skin and Hair Follicle Biology
Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) help control skin health, hair growth, and color, and could potentially be used to treat skin and hair disorders.
research Therapeutic Strategy for Hair Regeneration: Hair Cycle Activation, Niche Environment Modulation, Wound-Induced Follicle Neogenesis, and Stem Cell Engineering
The conclusion is that hair growth can be improved by activating hair cycles, changing the surrounding environment, healing wounds to create new hair follicles, and using stem cell technology.
research Molecular Principles of Hair Follicle Induction and Morphogenesis
Hair follicle development is controlled by interactions between skin tissues and specific molecular signals.
