9 / 9 resultsresearch A Quantitative Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry Analysis of Steroids from Human Scalp Hair
This study describes a new method using high-resolution mass spectrometry for analyzing multiple steroids in human scalp hair, with newborn hair showing the highest steroid concentrations among examined age groups.
research A Systematic Review on the Lipid Composition of Human Hair
This review discusses the lipid composition of human hair across ethnic types, effects of damage on lipid content, and associated changes with diseases, but reports no new findings; further research is needed.
research Towards Best Practice in Hair Metabolomic Studies: Systematic Investigation on the Impact of Hair Length and Color
This study found that metabolite levels in hair samples differ significantly by hair color and segment, leading to recommendations for best practices in hair metabolomic studies.
research Hair Cortisol Analysis: An Update on Methodological Considerations and Clinical Applications
Hair cortisol analysis can help diagnose stress-related conditions but needs more refinement for widespread use.
research The Endocannabinoid Tone Regulates Human Sebocyte Biology
This study suggests that enhancing endocannabinoid tone with an EMT-inhibitor may have anti-inflammatory effects and slightly increase sebaceous lipid production, which could be beneficial for dry skin conditions.
research Integral Hair Lipid in Human Hair Follicle
This article examines the role and composition of integral hair lipids in forming a protective barrier similar to the skin's epidermal lipid layer and reports no new findings about their effects.
research Diagnosis of Breast Cancer by X-Ray Diffraction of Hair
This study reports that hair from women with breast cancer showed a unique X-ray diffraction feature, potentially offering a non-invasive method for detecting the disease.
research Integral Lipid in Human Hair Follicle
This study discovered that the lipid in human hair follicles is mainly located in the hair cuticle and keratinized inner root sheath, distinct from sebaceous and epidermal lipids, suggesting a potential role as a "hair barrier.
research Fourier Transform Infrared Attenuated Total Reflection Analysis of Human Hair: Comparison of Hair from Breast Cancer Patients with Hair from Healthy Subjects
In this study, hair samples from breast cancer patients showed increased β-sheet structures and lipid content, with spectral markers successfully identifying cancer in a blind test but also producing false positives.
