research Hypotrichosis Congenita (KRT71 Mutation) in Hereford Cattle in Uruguay
A KRT71 mutation in Hereford cattle in Uruguay causes thin, curly hair and scaly skin.
research Biomarker of Oxidative Stress in Premature Hair Graying at Young Age
People with premature hair graying have an imbalance between harmful and protective molecules in their body, hinting that antioxidants might help.
research Hair, Cutaneous Homeostasis, and Stem Cell Functions
Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Melanocyte Stem Cells: A Melanocyte Reservoir in Hair Follicles for Hair and Skin Pigmentation
Melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles are key for hair color and could help treat greying and pigment disorders.
research Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: Toward New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and the Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth
Hair color production in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Cutaneous Complications of Chemotherapeutic Agents
Chemotherapy can cause skin problems like hair loss, mouth sores, and skin darkening, and recognizing these can affect treatment decisions.
research Prostaglandin-Induced Hair Growth
Latanoprost can make eyelashes longer, thicker, and darker.
research The Lysosomal Protease Cathepsin L Is an Important Regulator of Keratinocyte and Melanocyte Differentiation During Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling
Cathepsin L is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research TRP Channels in Skin Biology and Pathophysiology
TRP channels in the skin are important for sensation and health, and targeting them could help treat skin disorders.
