Calcium reduces involucrin in rat hair bulbs but doesn't affect filaggrin and Kdap.
research The Hair Follicle Bulge: A Niche for Adult Stem Cells
The hair follicle bulge is an important area for adult stem cells involved in hair growth and repair, with potential for medical use needing more research.
research Embryology, Histology, and Physiology of the Hair Follicle
The document explains how hair follicles develop, their structure, and how they grow.
research Environment of the Anagen Follicle
The document concludes that hair follicles have a complex environment and our understanding of it is growing, but there are limitations when applying animal study findings to humans.
research The Cytology and Cytochemistry of the Wool Follicle
Wool follicles are complex, involving interactions between different cell types and structures.
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 Human Hair and the Impact of Cosmetic Procedures: A Review on Cleansing and Shape-Modulating Cosmetics
Future hair cosmetics will be safer and more effective.
research Fine Structure and Immunocytochemistry of Monotreme Hairs, with Emphasis on the Inner Root Sheath and Trichohyalin-Based Cornification During Hair Evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research Scaffolds for Epithelial and Hair Follicle Regeneration
Electrospun matrices help regenerate skin and hair follicles using PCL and collagen scaffolds.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The skin has multiple layers and cells, serves as a protective barrier, helps regulate temperature, enables sensation, affects appearance, and is involved in vitamin D synthesis.
research Characterization of CD4+ Stem Cells of the Skin and Their Role in Skin Homeostasis and Tumorigenesis
CD4+ skin cells may be precursors to basal cell carcinoma.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research Tight Junction Barriers in Human Hair Follicles – Role of Claudin-1
Claudin-1 is important for the barrier function and growth of hair.
research Current Genetics in Hair Diseases
