Stem cells can help other stem cells by producing supportive factors.
research Through the Lens of Hair Follicle Neogenesis: A New Focus on Mechanisms of Skin Regeneration After Wounding
Hair can regrow in large wounds through a process similar to how hair forms in embryos, and understanding this could lead to new treatments for hair loss or scarring.
research Multifunctional Merkel Cells: Their Roles in Electromagnetic Reception, Fingerprint Formation, Reiki, Epigenetic Inheritance, and Hair Form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research Epimorphic Regeneration in Mice Is p53-Independent
Mice can regenerate ear tissue without the p53 protein.
research Function and Interactions of the Ysc84/SH3yl1 Family of Actin- and Lipid-Binding Proteins
The Ysc84/SH3yl1 protein family is important for cell movement and the process of taking in materials by interacting with actin and cell membranes.
research Acute Alopecia Associated With Albendazole Toxicosis
Taking too much Albendazole can cause hair loss and other serious side effects.
research Formation and Structure: An Introduction to Hair
Hair is important for social and sexual communication in humans.
research Taurine, a Non-Proteinous Essential Amino Acid for Human Body Systems: An Overview
Taurine is important for many body functions and its deficiency can cause health problems.
research Acute Alopecia Associated With Albendazole Toxicosis
Taking too much Albendazole can cause hair loss and other serious side effects.
research Not Just a Cell Marker: DPP4 Modulates Regeneration of Hair Follicles in Large Wounds
DPP4, a molecule in skin, helps heal large wounds and regrow hair follicles when its levels are reduced.
research A Counter Gradient of Activin A and Follistatin Instructs the Timing of Hair Cell Differentiation in the Murine Cochlea
Activin A speeds up ear hair cell differentiation, while Follistatin slows it down.
research WNT Signaling in the Control of Hair Growth and Structure
The research shows that a gene called Wnt3 affects hair growth and structure, causing short hair and balding when overactive.
research The Triacylglycerol Synthesis Enzyme DGAT1 Also Catalyzes the Synthesis of Diacylglycerols, Waxes, and Retinyl Esters
DGAT1 enzyme helps make diacylglycerols, waxes, and retinyl esters.
research ATP-Competitive mTOR Kinase Inhibitors Delay Plant Growth by Triggering Early Differentiation of Meristematic Cells Without Developmental Patterning Change
Certain inhibitors slow down plant growth by causing early cell specialization without changing the cell development pattern.
research Cloning of a Functional Vitamin D Receptor from the Lamprey, an Ancient Vertebrate Lacking a Calcified Skeleton and Teeth
Lampreys have a functional vitamin D receptor that may help detoxify harmful substances.
research The Blastema and Epimorphic Regeneration in Mammals
Mammals might fail to regenerate not because they lack the right cells, but because of how cells respond to their surroundings, and changing this environment could enhance regeneration.
research Hair Structure Anatomy And Comparative Anatomy Dedicated To The Memory Of The Late Dr. R. E. Rivett Whose Untimely Death Prevented His Role In Co-Authorship
Human hair is complex and grows in cycles starting from embryonic life.
research Principles and Mechanisms of Regeneration in the Mouse Model for Wound-Induced Hair Follicle Neogenesis
Mice can grow new hair follicles after skin wounds through a process not involving existing hair stem cells, but requiring more research to understand fully.
research Towards The Validation Of Endogenous Steroid Testing In Wildlife Hair
Hair analysis for stress and reproductive hormones in wildlife needs more research for accuracy across species.
