This study successfully developed and characterized a monospecific monoclonal antibody, LHTric-1, that specifically localizes to the pre-cortical region of the hair follicle and can aid research on hair and nail formation.

This study identified and characterized a murine type II hair keratin, demonstrating its presence in specific cells of hair and tongue tissues.

This review discusses the development of Matrigel and its role in identifying thymosin beta 4 as a regenerative protein, without reporting new experimental findings.

This study found that electrophoretic keratin typing of head hair can identify specific polypeptide patterns, suggesting potential applications in genetic and forensic investigations.

In this study, researchers characterized the FGF5 gene in Chinese Merino sheep, identified a new mRNA splicing variant, FGF5S, and noted its restricted expression in the brain, spleen, and skin.

This case report describes a possible association between Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease and linear IgA/IgG bullous dermatosis in a 35-year-old Japanese male, though coincidence cannot be ruled out.

This study identified FP-1 as a highly specific extracellular matrix protein in follicular papilla cells, which may play a role in hair growth regulation during specific hair cycle phases.

The method effectively analyzes human hair proteins, especially nonfilamentous ones.

This study found that hair follicle-plugging reduced skin permeation of certain model drugs, with effects varying based on EtOH pretreatment and the drug being evaluated.

This study found that partial protein extraction from keratinized tissues, such as hair and nails, reveals protein patterns distinct from whole protein extracts, including the presence of ubiquitin.

This study demonstrated that biochemical analysis of proteins from fetal skin biopsies is feasible, potentially enhancing prenatal diagnostic capabilities for protein-related disorders.

A woman with a rare autoimmune disorder had a blister on her eye and unique immune reaction, which was effectively treated with medication.

This study found that both types of sheep hair follicle transglutaminases were calcium-dependent, contradicting earlier reports of calcium independence in this enzyme.

This study suggests that TGF-alpha may function in an autocrine or juxtacrine manner rather than promoting cell proliferation during hair growth cycles in ferrets and sheep.

This review examines the benefits of topical hyaluronic acid in cosmetic applications, noting its ability to penetrate the skin in low-molecular-weight forms and highlighting safety supported by clinical trials.

In this study, a "frequent profile" of hair proteins was observed in 180 of 182 individuals, showing consistent electrophoretic bands characteristic of keratins, with rare deviations in two samples.

This study found that human trichohyalin has a unique protein sequence potentially contributing to at least three important functions in hair follicle and epidermal cells.

This study successfully cloned and characterized the LEF-1 gene from Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats, potentially aiding efforts to enhance cashmere production through genetic modification.

This study developed a potent Wnt surrogate with high specificity for the Fzd7 receptor in mice, promoting full hair follicle regeneration and robust hair growth, suggesting potential applications in tissue development and targeted regeneration.

This study extracted water-soluble keratin particles from chicken feathers and verified their structural properties, observing no irritative potential on hen's eggs and positive physiological effects on human skin cells, suggesting their suitability for use on damaged or irritated skin.

In this study, researchers extracted soluble keratin proteins from chicken feathers and found they maintain structural integrity with potential uses for damaged skin, exhibiting no irritative effects in ex vivo settings on hen's eggs.

This study found that extracts and crude protein from the white oyster mushroom demonstrated significant thrombolytic activity compared to a positive control, suggesting their potential as natural thrombolytic agents for thromboembolism therapy.

In this study, researchers found that the Shindai method effectively extracts keratin from human hair, with female hair yielding more keratin than male hair. The extracted keratin showed high absorption with UV spectrometry and was confirmed as α-keratin through SDS-PAGE analysis.

This study found that using SH-SY5Y cell lysate in Western blot analysis may improve the diagnosis of Satoyoshi syndrome by providing more consistent and clear immunoreactive band patterns compared to brain homogenate, potentially leading to earlier diagnosis and treatment.

In this study, researchers successfully expressed recombinant human FGF5 protein in Arabidopsis, finding that this protein inhibits hair regeneration both in vitro and in vivo.

This study purified trichohyalin protein from pig tongue epithelium, characterizing its unique properties and structure, which may facilitate future functional research.

This study identified ISPP-Rb, a novel immuno-stimulatory complex from Royoporus badius, that significantly activates murine macrophage cells and induces multiple proinflammatory cytokines.

This study found that the gelatinous minoxidil 1% shampoo demonstrated thixotropic properties and mechanical stability, suggesting predictable long-term consistency and effective distribution on the scalp.

This study identified that the ND1 gene sequence of the Asian black bear's Sichuan subspecies shares high similarity with those of other bear species, raccoons, and Ailurus fulgens.

This study found a genetic electrophoretic variant in high-sulfur proteins from human hair, which was more prevalent in the Japanese samples compared to Caucasian samples, suggesting an autosomal inheritance pattern.
