Skin cells produce and activate vitamin D, which regulates skin functions and supports hair growth.
research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
research Molecular Signaling in Feather Morphogenesis
Feather growth and regeneration involve complex patterns, stem cells, and evolutionary insights.
research Reduced Cell Cohesiveness of Outgrowths from Eccrine Sweat Glands Delays Wound Closure in Elderly Skin
Older people's sweat glands are less effective at helping skin wounds heal due to weaker cell connections.
research Morpho-Regulation in Diverse Chicken Feather Formation: Integrating Branching Modules and Sex Hormone-Dependent Morpho-Regulatory Modules
Sex hormones, especially estradiol, can change chicken feather shapes and colors.
research Genome-Wide Detection and Sequence Conservation Analysis of Long Non-Coding RNA During Hair Follicle Cycle of Yak
Researchers found that certain RNA sequences play a role in yak hair growth and these sequences are somewhat similar to those in cashmere goats.
research Index
The document is a detailed medical reference on skin and genetic disorders.
research Expression of Plectin-1 and Trichohyalin in Human Tongue Cancer Cells
Tongue cancer cells show more plectin-1 than non-cancer cells, but both have similar levels of trichohyalin.
research Sostdc1 Defines the Size and Number of Skin Appendage Placodes
Sostdc1 controls the size and number of hair and mammary gland structures.
research Can Plant Extracts Help Prevent Hair Loss or Promote Hair Growth? A Review Comparing Their Therapeutic Efficacies, Phytochemical Components, and Modulatory Targets
Plant extracts can help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth.
research Characterization of the Epidermal-Dermal Junction in hiPSC-Derived Skin Organoids
The study created hair-bearing skin models that lack a key protein for skin layer attachment, limiting their use for certain skin disease research.
research Effects of Periplaneta Americana Extracts on the Growth and Proliferation of Cutaneous Interstitial Cells in Cutaneous-Wound Healing
Kangfuxin (KFX) extract speeds up wound healing and improves skin regeneration.
research A Hairy Situation: PADIs in Regeneration and Alopecia
Enzymes called PADIs play a key role in hair growth and loss.
research Evo Devo of the Vertebrate Integument
The skin systems of jawed vertebrates evolved diverse appendages like hair and scales from a common structure over 420 million years ago.
research Nanofiber Scaffolds as Drug Delivery Systems Promoting Wound Healing
Nanofiber scaffolds help wounds heal by delivering drugs directly to the injury site.
research The Role of the Vitamin D Receptor in the Epidermal Stem Cell Response to Wounding
Vitamin D receptor is crucial for skin wound healing.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research 2015
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
research p53 Is a Direct Transcriptional Repressor of Keratin 17: Lessons from a Rat Model of Radiation Dermatitis
The protein p53 directly reduces the production of Keratin 17, a skin and hair protein, in rats with radiation dermatitis.
research All Roads Lead to the Nucleus: Integration of Signaling, Transcription Factor-Mediated, and Epigenetic Regulatory Mechanisms in the Control of Skin Development and Regeneration
The nucleus is key in controlling skin growth and repair by coordinating signals, gene regulators, and epigenetic changes.
research Stem Cell Markers (Cytokeratin 15, CD34, and Nestin) in Primary Scarring and Nonscarring Alopecia
Scarring alopecia affects different hair follicle stem cells than nonscarring alopecia, and the infundibular region could be a new treatment target.
research In Vitro Analysis of Hemostatic Efficacy of Fibrinogen Precipitation With Varied Keratin Fraction Compositions
Human hair proteins can help blood clot when mixed in equal parts.
research Rational Design of Keratin Nanoparticles Utilizing Diverse Hair Protein Fractions for Controlled Drug Release
Scientists made nanoparticles from human hair proteins to improve drug delivery.

Trichohyalin makes hair follicles stronger.
research Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy Analysis of Human Hair Fiber Structure
Human hair has different protein structures in its cuticle and cortex.
research Hair Greying Is Associated With Active Hair Growth
White hair grows thicker and faster than black hair due to higher activity of growth-related genes and proteins.
research Expression of Novel Keratin-Associated Protein 5 Genes in the Cuticle Layer of Human Hair Follicles
The study found nine new hair protein genes in human hair follicles.
research Effect of Thermal Treatments on the Structural Change and Hemostatic Property of Hair Extracted Proteins
Heating hair proteins changes their structure and may improve their blood clotting ability.
research A Methodological Exploration of Distinguishing Hair Quality Based on Hair Proteomics
Bleaching damages hair by reducing the quality of keratin and keratin-associated proteins.
