To further elucidate the function of PAD type III in the formation of the rigid structure, we performed immunocytochemi- cal studies on its expression during the first and second hair cycle of the rat dorsal skin hair folli- cle. During the first hair cycle, THH and PAD type III appeared coincidently in the cone-shaped inner root sheath of the developing hair follicle before the appearance of the deiminated THH. In the catagen of the first hair follicle, the immunoreactivities of THH and deiminated THH were de- teriorated and completely disappeared in the telogen. During the second hair cycle, big hair was de- veloped, the cortex of which was about four-fold thicker and the follicle was about 1.5-fold longer than those of the small hairs developed during the first hair cycle. In the matured big hair follicle, THH was detected in the imier root sheath and in the medulla from the bulb region to the middle follicle region. In contrast, deiminated THH was intensely detected in the lI’lII61‘ root sheath and me- dulla from the middle follicle region to the end of the follicle or hair shaft, although it was also de- tected faintly in Henle’s layer of the inner root sheath from the upper bulb region to the middle follicle region. PAD type III in the second hair cycle was detected in the inner root sheath from the lower bulb region and in the medulla cells from the region in contact with the dermal papilla, and also in the cortex cells from the lower bulb region, but not in the outer root sheath. These observa- tions indicate that THH and PAD type III are expressed coincidentally at the early stage of the an- agen, but the deimination of THH occurs later after a time-lag, suggesting that the additional factor might be involved in triggering the reaction.

ABSTRACT Animal hair examination at a criminal scene may provide valuable information in forensic investigations. How- ever, local reference databases for animal hair identification are rare. In the present study, we provide differential histological analysis of hair of some domestic animals in Upper Egypt. For this purpose, guard hair of large rumi- nants (buffalo, camel and cow), small ruminants (sheep and goat), equine (horse and donkey) and canine (dog and cat) were collected and comparative analysis was performed by light microscopy. Based on the hair cuticle scale pattern, type and diameter of the medulla, and the pigmentation, characteristic differential features of each animal species were identified. The cuticle scale pattern was imbricate in all tested animals except in donkey, in which coronal scales were identified. The cuticle scale margin type, shape and the distance in between were characteristic for each animal species.

Neural control of facial sweat gland secretion in horses Lu Liu 2019.11.26 BMS 599 Creative Component Biomedical Sciences Department Iowa State University Abstract: For sweat glands, it has been shown that sympathetic neurons express a cholinergic/noradrenergic co-phenotype in their innervation in the trunk of mice.(Schütz et al. 2008). It is unknown if facial sweat glands are innervated the same way. Gustatory sweating is an abnormal sweating condition. People can sweat profusely when eating or drinking, or even thinking about eating or drinking. We hypothesize that the facial sweat glands are controlled differently and can be related to parasympathetic neurons from cranial nerves. Some samples from human donors have been tested, but few sweat glands can be targeted since the donors were older people. Thus, it was decided to use horse tissue for this project to obtain greater numbers of sweat glands on the face.

In humans, polymorphisms in or near the A20 gene are associated with several inflammatory disorders, including psoriasis. We show here that epidermis-specific A20-knockout mice (A20EKO) develop keratinocyte hyperproliferation, but no signs of skin inflammation, such as immune cell infiltration. However, A20EKO mice clearly developed ectodermal organ abnormalities, including disheveled hair, longer nails and sebocyte hyperplasia. This phenotype resembles that of mice overexpressing ectodysplasin-A1 (EDA-A1) or the ectodysplasin receptor (EDAR), suggesting that A20 negatively controls EDAR signaling. We found that A20 inhibited EDAR-induced NF-jB signaling independent from its de-ubiquitinating activity. In addition, A20 expression was induced by EDA-A1 in embryonic skin explants, in which its expression was confined to the hair placodes, known to be the site of EDAR expression. In summary, our data indicate that EDAR-induced NF-jB levels are controlled by A20, which functions as a negative feedback regulator, to assure proper skin homeostasis and epidermal appendage development.

  • A New Look Into an Old Problem: Keratins As Tools to Investigate Determmanon, Morphogenesis, and Differentiation in Skin
    Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on October 10, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determmanon, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin Raphael Kopan and Elaine Fuchs Departments of Molecular Genetics and Cell Biology and Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, The University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois 60637 USA We have investigated keratin and keratin mRNA expression during (1) differentiation of stem cells into epidermis and hair follicles and (2) morphogenesis of follicles. Our results indicate that a type I keratin K14 is expressed early in embryonal basal cells. Subsequently, its expression is elevated in the basal layer of developing epidermis but suppressed in developing matrix cells. This difference represents an early and major biochemical distinction between the two diverging cell types. Moreover, because expression of this keratin is not readily influenced by extracellular regulators or cell culture, it suggests a well-defined and narrow window of development during which an irreversible divergence in basal and matrix cells may take place. In contrast to KI4, which is expressed very early in development and coincident with basal epidermal differentiation, a hair- specific type I keratin and its mRNA is expressed late in hair matrix development and well after follicle morphogenesis. Besides providing an additional developmental difference between epidermal and hair matrix cells, the hair-specific keratins provide the first demonstration that keratin expression may be a consequence rather than a cause of cell organization and differentiation.

  • The Biology and Science of Hair, Skin and Nails Hair There Are
    900 E. Hill Ave Suite 380 Knoxville, TN 37915 www.athomeprep.com 1-800-952-0910 The Biology and Science of Hair, Skin and Nails Hair There are approximately 5 million hair follicles on the body with 100-150 thousand located on the scalp. By 22 weeks gestation, the fetus has all of the hair follicles that it will ever have and no more are added during its lifetime. The hair follicles are more dense as a young child and become less so as our body grows. The primary functions of hair are protection against UV rays and heat loss. Hair cells are called trichocytes and are among the most rapidly dividing cells in the body - doubling every 23-72 hours. The trichocytes are located in the hair follicle, which in turn is located in the dermis of the skin. Each hair follicle has a follicular papilla which is fed by capillaries (small blood vessels). The papilla surrounds the bulb from which the hair grows. This entire complex is located in the dermis of the skin overlying the cranium (also known as the scalp). The follicle has two layers, an outer and an inner. The outer layer continues up to the sebaceous gland and the inner follows the hair shaft and ends below the opening of the sebaceous gland. Each follicle also contains an arrector pili muscle which attaches to the outer sheath just below the sebaceous gland. This causes hair to stand on end when you are frightened or scared or cold. The sebaceous gland produces sebum which acts as a natural conditioner.

    Hair Analysis ©2005, 2004, 2003, 2001, 1999 by David A. Katz. All rights reserved. Hair can be important physical evidence at a crime scene. Hair normally falls from the body over the course of a day. It will stick to a number of materials, especially fabric and clothing. Hair is not easily destroyed, even with exposure to moisture and decomposition of accompanying tissue. There are three types of hair usually seen in animals: Vibrissa. These are the whiskers of many animals. They are normally tactile and sensitive, such as the whiskers on a cat. Bristle. This is the coarse bristle that provides an animal with a protective coat. These guard hairs can readily be identified by their distinctive appearance and morphology between various animal families. Wool. Wool or fur provides insulation from wet and cold. These fine hairs cover the bodies of all mammals. Head and body hair of humans is classified as intermediate hair combining the characteristics of bristle and wool hairs. Four types of hair appear on the bodies of humans: Primordial hairs appear as early as the 3rd month of gestation, growing on the upper lip, the eyebrows, the palms and soles of the fetus. They gradually disappear and are replaced by softer lanugo hair over the entire body. Lanugo hairs are normally shed after the 6th month of gestation. They are fine, soft, unmedullated, and normally unpigmented hairs. The surface of lanugo hair is smooth with almost indiscriminate scales. It is replaced by vellus and terminal hairs. Lanugo hair is often observed on an aborted fetus and can be useful in investigation of possible infanticide.

  • The Study of Hair 3
    CHAPTER CHAPTER 3 1 2 The Study of Hair 3 4 5 6 NEUTRON ACTIVATION 7 ANALYSIS OF HAIR In 1958, the body of 16-year-old Gaetane 8 Bouchard was discovered in a gravel pit near her home in Edmundston, New Brunswick, 9 across the Canadian–U.S. border from Maine. Numerous stab wounds were found on her body. Witnesses reported seeing Bouchard 10 with her boyfriend John Vollman prior to her disappearance. Circumstantial evidence also 11 linked Vollman with Bouchard. Paint flakes from the place where the couple had been seen together were found in Vollman’s car. 12 Lipstick that matched the color of Bouchard’s lipstick was found on candy in Vollman’s glove 13 compartment. At Bouchard’s autopsy, several strands of hair were found in her hand. This hair was tested 14 using a process known as neutron activation analysis (NAA). NAA tests for the presence and 15 concentration of various elements in a sample. In this case, NAA showed that the hair in Bouchard’s hand contained a ratio of sulfur to 16 phosphorus that was much closer to Vollman’s hair than her own. At the trial, Vollman con- 17 fessed to the murder in light of the hair analysis results. This was the first time NAA hair analysis was used to convict a criminal. ©Stephen J. Krasemann/Photo Researchers, Inc.
