research Trichohyalin: Presence in the Granular Layer and Stratum Corneum of Normal Human Epidermis
This study found that trichohyalin, a protein previously thought to be restricted to hair and tongue, is also present in isolated cells within the granular layer and stratum corneum of normal human epidermis.
research An evaluation of collagen peptide for transdermal delivery using Strat-M ® membrane and excised mouse skin
In this study, researchers applied Strat-M® membrane to assess the in vitro transdermal properties of collagen peptides, finding a high correlation with results from mouse skin and suggesting that Strat-M® can effectively replace excised mouse skin in transdermal experiments.
research Amino Acids, Peptides, and Proteins
This review focuses on the roles of amino acids, peptides, and proteins in cosmetics, highlighting their importance in skin health and their potential for development in personal care products due to their unique properties and biocompatibility.
research Raman spectroscopic analysis of L‐phenylalanine and hydrolyzed eggwhite protein penetration into keratin fibers
This study found that hydrophobic amino acids from egg white hydrolyzed protein and L-phenylalanine effectively penetrate deep into the human hair fiber, increasing specific contents in both virgin and bleached hair.
research A 5'-upstream region of a bovine keratin 6 gene confers tissue-specific expression and hyperproliferation-related induction in transgenic mice.
This study demonstrated that a specific 9-kbp fragment of the bovine keratin 6 gene effectively directs tissue-specific and inducible expression in transgenic mice, suggesting potential applications for targeted gene therapy in hyperproliferative skin conditions.
research Hair Follicle Proteoglycans.
research The developmental basis of fingerprint pattern formation and variation
In this study, researchers found that human fingerprint ridges are formed through a modified hair follicle developmental process and spatial patterns influenced by specific signaling pathways.
research Directed Expression of a Chimeric Type II Keratin Partially Rescues Keratin 5-null Mice
In this study, targeting the expression of a keratin KRT5/KRT8 chimeric cDNA in keratin-deficient mice partially restored structural defects in epidermal cells, but did not fully normalize skin health.
research The β‐thymosins: Intracellular and extracellular activities of a versatile actin binding protein family
This review discusses the intracellular activity of β-thymosins and their role in modulating the actin cytoskeleton, but it reports no new experimental results.
research 414 A new form of ectodermal dysplasia caused by mutations in TSPEAR
Mutations in the TSPEAR gene cause a new form of ectodermal dysplasia affecting hair and tooth development.
research Self-Assembly of Solubilized Human Hair Keratins
In this study, researchers demonstrated that human hair keratins can self-assemble into stable nanofibrous networks in vitro, which are compatible with human skin cells and useful for regenerative applications.
research FPRL1 Receptor Agonist Peptides Prevent Etoposide-Induced Alopecia in Neonatal Rats
Certain peptides can prevent hair loss in young rats caused by a cancer drug.
research Isolation of Multipotent Nestin-Expressing Stem Cells Derived from the Epidermis of Elderly Humans and TAT-VHL Peptide-Mediated Neuronal Differentiation of These Cells
In this study, researchers isolated multipotent stem cells from elderly human epidermis and showed that they could differentiate into neurons using TAT-VHL peptide, suggesting potential for regenerative therapies.
research An Updated Nomenclature for Keratin-Associated Proteins (KAPs)
This article proposes an updated naming system for keratin-associated proteins and genes, aiming to improve data storage and retrieval by including species information and genetic variation.
research Crystal Structure and Synthesis of 3.BETA.-Benzoyloxy-4-pregnen-16.ALPHA.,17.ALPHA.-epoxy-6,20-dione
This study reports the crystal structure of C28H32O5, revealing its monoclinic symmetry, unit-cell dimensions, and molecular conformation.
research Comparative immunohistochemical analysis suggests a conserved role of EPS8L1 in epidermal and hair follicle barriers of mammals
research Activating an adaptive immune response from a hydrogel scaffold imparts regenerative wound healing
This study found that D-peptide crosslinked MAP hydrogel accelerated material degradation in vivo but significantly enhanced skin regeneration, suggesting an adaptive immune response can drive regenerative healing even with rapid scaffold breakdown.
research 085 Post-translational regulation of hair keratins in transfected COS-1 cells
research Effect of DNA aptamer through blocking of negative regulation of Wnt/β‐catenin signaling in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells
This study found that WD-aptamer increased β-catenin expression and promoted human hair follicle dermal papilla cell proliferation by interfering with the CXXC5-Dvl1 interaction in the Wnt signaling pathway.
research Oral delivery of marine shellfish supramolecule peptides for skin wound healing
This study found that oral administration of naturally safe active polypeptides from marine shellfish promoted scarless dermal wound healing in mice, potentially via effects on inflammation, fibroblast activity, and the "skin-gut" axis.
