research The Biology of Hair Diversity
Hair diversity is influenced by complex genetics and environmental factors, requiring more research for practical solutions.
research Hair Coloring, Permanent Styling, and Hair Structure
Frequent hair coloring and styling can damage hair and cause breakage or loss.
research Convergent Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, showing complex skin evolution.
research Discovery of Autoantigens in the Hair Loss Disorder Alopecia Areata: Implications of Posttranslational Modifications
Scientists are still unsure what triggers the immune system to attack hair follicles in Alopecia areata.
research Identification of the Ovine Keratin-Associated Protein 26-1 Gene and Its Association with Variation in Wool Traits
Selecting specific KRTAP26-1 gene variants can improve wool quality in sheep.
research Investigation by Imaging Mass Spectrometry of Biomarker Candidates for Aging in the Hair Cortex
Certain molecules in hair change with age and could be used for cosmetic treatments.
research Independent DSG4 Frameshift Variants in Cats with Hair Shaft Dystrophy
Cats with abnormal hair had DSG4 gene changes causing hair problems.
research Hidradenitis Suppurativa: A Folliculotropic Disease of Innate Immune Barrier Dysfunction?
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a skin disease caused by the breakdown of the skin's natural immune barriers, especially around hair follicles.
research Perspectives of Alopecia Behind the Regulation of Foxn1 Gene Exposes the Human Nude Phenotype
The gene Foxn1 is important for hair growth, and understanding it may lead to new alopecia treatments.
research Variant PADI3 in Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia
Mutations in the PADI3 gene are linked to a higher risk of scarring hair loss in women of African descent.
research Fractal Geometry and Topology Abstracted from Hair Fibers
Hair fibers have fractal patterns with properties related to the golden mean, which may affect their functionality.
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 Aging Skin: A Window to the Body
Skin aging reflects overall body aging and can indicate internal health conditions.
research Structure of Intermediate Filament Assembly in Hair Deduced from Hydration Studies Using Small-Angle Neutron Scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Fabrication and Characterization of Epithelial Scaffolds for Hair Follicle Regeneration
Scientists created three types of structures to help regrow hair follicles, and all showed promising results for hair regeneration.
research Is Propionibacterium Acnes Associated With Hair Casts And Alopecia?
Propionibacterium acnes might be linked to hair casts and possibly alopecia.
research British Society for Dermatopathology 2011 Findings
Dermatologists give better information on pathology forms, hypersensitivity vasculitis is a common skin issue, misdiagnoses can occur, and various skin conditions are linked to loss of elastin or genetic factors.
research Topical L-Thyroxine: The Cinderella Among Hormones Waiting to Dance on the Floor of Dermatological Therapy?
Topical L-thyroxine may help with wound healing and hair growth but should be used short-term due to potential risks.
research Hdac1 and Hdac2 Regulate the Quiescent State and Survival of Hair-Follicle Mesenchymal Niche
Hdac1 and Hdac2 help maintain and protect the cells that control hair growth.
research PH Dependence of the Coiled-Coil Structure of Keratin Intermediate Filament in Human Hair by 13C NMR Spectroscopy and the Mechanism of Its Disruption
Keratin structure in hair is stable at pH 5-6 but disrupts between pH 6-7.
research Signaling Involved in Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Development
The conclusion is that proper signaling is crucial for hair growth and development, and errors can lead to cancer or hair loss.
research The Role of P-Cadherin in Skin Biology and Pathology: Lessons from the Hair Follicle
P-cadherin is important for hair growth and health, and its problems can cause hair and skin disorders.
research The Cytology and Cytochemistry of the Wool Follicle
Wool follicles are complex, involving interactions between different cell types and structures.
research Anti-Acne Agents Attenuate FGFR2 Signal Transduction in Acne
Anti-acne medications may work by reducing the activity of a protein involved in acne development.
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 Human Keratinocytes Derived from the Bulge Region of Hair Follicles Are Refractory to Differentiation
Hair follicle cells resist turning into skin cells.
research The Fate of Trichohyalin
Trichohyalin is modified by enzymes to form strong structures in hair cells.
research Bioinformatics Analysis of Genes Associated with Patchy-Type Alopecia Areata: CD2 May Be a New Therapeutic Target
CD2 might be a new treatment target for patchy alopecia areata.
research Noyes-Whitney Dissolution Model-Based pH-Sensitive Slow Release of Paclitaxel from Human Hair-Derived Keratin Microparticle Carriers
Human hair-derived particles can effectively carry and release the cancer drug Paclitaxel in a pH-sensitive manner, potentially targeting cancer cells while sparing healthy ones.
