research Alopecia Areata: A Review of Disease Pathogenesis
Alopecia areata is likely an autoimmune disease with unclear triggers, involving various immune cells and molecules, and currently has no cure.
research The Lanceolate Hair Rat Phenotype Results from a Missense Mutation in a Calcium Coordinating Site of the Desmoglein 4 Gene
A gene mutation causes lanceolate hair in rats by disrupting hair shaft integrity.
research Mammalian Fetal Organ Regeneration
Fetal wounds heal without scarring because of different biological factors, which could help improve adult wound healing.
research Penetration of Different Molecular Weight Hydrolysed Keratins into Hair Fibres and Their Effects on the Physical Properties of Textured Hair
Different sizes of keratin peptides can strengthen hair, with smaller ones possibly increasing volume and larger ones repairing damage.
research Skin in the Game: Stem Cells in Repair, Cancer, and Homeostasis
Elaine Fuchs' research shows how skin stem cells maintain health, aid in healing, and are involved in cancer.
research The Effects of Multiple Power Densities of Carbon Dioxide Laser on Photothermal Damage in Rat Skin Tissue
Higher power CO2 laser causes more severe skin burns and damage.
research Apoptosis, Androgenetic Alopecia, and the Hair Cycle
Finasteride reduces hair follicle cell death in androgenetic alopecia.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Delayed Epidermal Permeability Barrier Formation and Hair Follicle Aberrations in Inv-Cldn6 Mice

research Heterogeneity of Neural Crest-Derived Melanocytes
Melanocytes are diverse cells important for pigmentation and skin health, influenced by genetics and environment.
research Skin Biology
Current therapies cannot fully regenerate adult skin without scars; more research is needed for scar-free healing.
research Keys to the Diagnosis of Hair Shaft Disorders: Part II
Hair shaft disorders, often due to genetics or environment, lack specific treatments but can be managed with gentle hair care and may improve with age or topical treatments.
research Development of an Intrinsic Skin Sensor for Blood Glucose Level with CRISPR-Mediated Genome Editing in Epidermal Stem Cells
Researchers created a skin graft that senses blood glucose and could treat diabetes using CRISPR-edited stem cells.
research Skin Structure
Human skin has multiple layers and functions, with key roles in protection, temperature control, and appearance.
research Cosmetics and Cosmeceutical Applications of Chitin, Chitosan, and Their Derivatives
Chitin and chitosan are useful in cosmetics for oral care, haircare, and skincare, including UV protection and strength improvement.
research Lack of the Vitamin D Receptor Is Associated with Reduced Epidermal Differentiation and Hair Follicle Growth
Vitamin D Receptor is crucial for normal skin and hair growth.
research The Role of Tight Junctions in Skin Barrier Function and Dermal Absorption
Tight junctions are key for skin protection and controlling what gets absorbed or passes through the skin.
research Biology of the Wool Follicle: An Excursion into a Unique Tissue Interaction System Waiting to Be Rediscovered
The article concludes that the wool follicle is a valuable model for studying tissue interactions and has potential for genetic improvements in wool production.
research Beyond Acne: Current Aspects of Sebaceous Gland Biology and Function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research Applications of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Skin Regeneration and Rejuvenation
Mesenchymal stem cells show potential for skin healing and anti-aging, but more research is needed for safe use, especially regarding stem cells from induced pluripotent sources.
research The Nude Mutant Gene Foxn1 Is a HOXC13 Regulatory Target During Hair Follicle and Nail Differentiation
HOXC13 is essential for hair and nail development by regulating Foxn1.
research Root Hair Growth: It's a One Way Street
Root hair growth in plants is a complex process controlled by many factors working together.

Cyclosporin A promotes hair cell growth and affects protein kinase C levels.
research Protein And Sulfur Amino Acid Nutrition Of Hair Fiber-Producing Angora And Cashmere Goats
Giving high-quality protein or methionine supplements helps improve hair growth in Angora goats and, to a lesser extent, in Cashmere goats.
research Cicatricial Marginal Alopecia: Is It All Traction?
Traction may not be the only cause of cicatricial marginal alopecia.
research A Comparison of Transcriptomic Patterns Measured in the Skin of Chinese Fine and Coarse Wool Sheep Breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research Hair Follicle Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Genes Regulating Wool Fiber Diameter in Angora Rabbits
Genes affecting wool fiber thickness in Angora rabbits were identified, which could help breed finer wool.
