research KIF18B Is a Cell-Type Specific Regulator of Spindle Orientation in the Epidermis
KIF18B is important for correctly positioning cell division machinery in skin cells, affecting hair follicle development.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.
research Acidic and Basic Hair/Nail (Hard) Keratins: Their Colocalization in Upper Cortical and Cuticle Cells of the Human Hair Follicle and Their Relationship to Soft Keratins
Hair and nail cells share similar proteins, indicating a common differentiation pathway.
research ATP-Dependent Chromatin Remodeling During Mammalian Development
ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling complexes are crucial for gene regulation, cell differentiation, and organ development in mammals.
research The Impact of Oxidative Stress on Hair
Oxidative stress damages hair and contributes to aging, and managing it can help maintain hair health.
research Engineering Pro-Regenerative Hydrogels for Scarless Wound Healing
Hydrogels could lead to better treatments for wound healing without scars.
research Altered Resting-State Activity in Seasonal Affective Disorder
People with Seasonal Affective Disorder have different brain activity in certain areas when resting.
research Allopregnanolone Mediates the Exacerbation of Tourette-Like Responses by Acute Stress in Mouse Models
Stress worsens Tourette symptoms by increasing allopregnanolone levels.
research Candidate SNP Markers of Reproductive Potential Predicted by Significant Change in Affinity of TATA-Binding Protein for Human Gene Promoters
Certain genetic markers linked to reproductive potential were identified by their impact on a protein's ability to bind to genes.
research The Anxiolytic-Like Effects of Estazolam on a PTSD Animal Model
Estazolam reduces anxiety-like behavior in PTSD by increasing allopregnanolone levels.
research Functional Ectodermal Organ Regeneration as the Next Generation of Organ Replacement Therapy
The document concludes that regenerating functional ectodermal organs like teeth and hair is promising for future therapies.
research Androgenetic Alopecia, Trichotrophic Substances, and Histologic Studies of the Human Scalp

research Rac-Dependent Signaling from Keratinocytes Promotes Differentiation of Intradermal White Adipocytes
Signals from skin cells controlled by Rac proteins help turn certain precursor cells into white fat cells.
research Sex Differences in Animal Models of Sodium Valproate-Induced Autism in Postnatal BALB/c Mice: Whole-Brain Histoarchitecture and 5-HT2A Receptor Biomarker Evidence
Male mice are more susceptible to autism-like changes from valproic acid than female mice.
research Impact of Hair Damage on the Penetration Profile of Coconut, Avocado, and Argan Oils into Caucasian Hair Fibers
Different oils affect hair flexibility and strength, with their impact varying on whether hair is virgin or bleached.
research Exploring the Impact of the Microbiome on Neuroactive Steroid Levels in Germ-Free Animals
Gut microbes significantly affect brain steroid levels.
research Penetration of Different Molecular Weight Hydrolysed Keratins into Hair Fibres and Their Effects on the Physical Properties of Textured Hair
