research Application of Stem Cells in Regenerative Medicine
Stem cells and their exosomes show promise for repairing tissues and healing wounds when delivered effectively, but more research is needed on their tracking and optimal use.
research A Mouse Model for the Basal Transcription and DNA Repair Syndrome Trichothiodystrophy
Researchers created a mouse with the same mutation as humans with trichothiodystrophy, showing similar symptoms and confirming the condition is due to defects in DNA repair and gene activity.
research Improved Humoral Immunity and Protection Against Influenza Virus Infection With a 3D Porous Biomaterial Vaccine
A new vaccine using a porous scaffold boosts immunity and protects against the flu better than traditional methods.
research Colocalization of Cystatin M/E and Its Target Proteases Suggests a Role in Terminal Differentiation of Human Hair Follicle and Nail
Cystatin M/E helps in the final stages of hair and nail formation by controlling certain enzymes.
research Action of Thioglycolic Acid and L-Cysteine on Disulfide Cross-Links in Hair Fibers During Permanent Waving Treatment
Thioglycolic acid and L-cysteine change hair structure differently during perms, affecting hair strength and curling efficiency.
research Human Hair Keratin Gradient Metallogel and Their Applications for Wound Healing
The research developed a human hair keratin and silver ion hydrogel that could help heal wounds.
research Emerging 3D Bioprinting Applications in Plastic Surgery
3D bioprinting in plastic surgery could lead to personalized grafts and fewer complications.
research Onychomadesis Associated with Childhood Hand-Foot-Mouth Disease
Hand-foot-mouth disease may cause nail loss in children.
research Characterization of the Cysteine-Rich Calcium-Binding S100A3 Protein from Human Hair Cuticles
Scientists found out how a specific protein in human hair cuticles behaves and is structured.
research Is Propionibacterium Acnes Associated With Hair Casts And Alopecia?
Propionibacterium acnes might be linked to hair casts and possibly alopecia.
research Adenosine Stimulates Growth of Dermal Papilla and Lengthens the Anagen Phase by Increasing the Cysteine Level via Fibroblast Growth Factors 2 and 7 in an Organ Culture of Mouse Vibrissae Hair Follicles
Adenosine helps hair grow longer and stronger by boosting certain growth factors and signaling pathways.
research Hair Casts
Hair casts are often mistaken for head lice, scalp pain in hair loss is linked to certain nerve factors, eyelash growth treatment is safe and effective, and nail shedding in children may follow hand-foot-mouth disease.
research Protein Disulfide Isomerase-Mediated Grafting of Cysteine-Containing Peptides onto Over-Bleached Hair
PDI helps restore over-bleached hair's strength and structure by attaching special peptides.
research Miliacin Associated with Polar Lipids: Effect on Growth Factors Excretion and Extracellular Matrix of the Dermal Papilla Hair Follicle Model Maintained in Survival Conditions
Miliacin combined with polar lipids boosts hair growth factor production, cell renewal, and increases collagen in hair tissue.
research Pigmented Casts in Alopecia: A 2014 Study
Pigmented casts are common in several hair loss conditions and can help diagnose specific types of alopecia.
research Age-Related Changes in Human Scalp Extracellular Matrix: Implications for the Hair Follicle
Older women's scalp cells show changes that could contribute to hair thinning.
research Organization and Expression of Hair Follicle Genes
Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.
research Convergent Evolution of Cysteine-Rich Keratins in Hard Skin Appendages of Terrestrial Vertebrates
Cysteine-rich keratins evolved independently in mammals, reptiles, and birds for hard skin structures like hair, claws, and feathers.
research Chemoprevention of Doxorubicin-Induced Alopecia in Mice by Dietary Administration of L-Cystine and Vitamin B6
L-cystine and vitamin B6 at high doses prevented hair loss in mice treated with a chemotherapy drug.
research Structure and Expression of Genes for a Class of Cysteine-Rich Proteins of the Cuticle Layers of Differentiating Wool and Hair Follicles
Researchers found genes for cysteine-rich proteins that form the protective layer of hair in humans and sheep.
research Current and Novel Methods for Assessing Efficacy of Hair Growth Promoters in Pattern Hair Loss
New methods improve how we test hair growth treatments, but challenges like slow hair changes and high costs remain.
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 A Human Folliculoid Microsphere Assay for Exploring Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interactions in the Human Hair Follicle
HFMs can help study hair growth and test potential hair growth drugs.
research Oxidative Stress in Aging of Hair
Oxidative stress contributes to hair graying and loss as we age.
research Proteomic Tools for the Investigation of Human Hair Structural Proteins and Evidence of Weakness Sites on Hair Keratin Coil Segments
Hair proteins have weak spots in their α-helical segments.
research Size Polymorphisms in the Human Ultrahigh Sulfur Hair Keratin-Associated Protein 4, KAP4, Gene Family
The study found that variations in hair protein genes are likely due to evolutionary deletions or duplications.
