research Supplementary material from "Giant axonal neuropathy alters the structure of keratin intermediate filaments in human hair"

January 2017

This study found that keratin intermediate filaments in the hair of patients with giant axonal neuropathy were structurally altered, resulting in hair that was stiffer, stronger, and more extensible.

research Hair—the most sophisticated biological composite material

254 citations , January 2007 in “Chemical Society Reviews”

This review discusses the hierarchical structure and chemical properties of hair fibers and offers insights for chemists and biochemists, but reports no new experimental findings.

research Cytochemistry of Trichohyalin Granules: A Possible Role for Cornification of Inner Root Sheath Cell in the Hair Follicle

4 citations , April 1989 in “The Journal of Dermatology”

This study observed in mouse skin that trichohyalin granules in hair follicles transform into filamentous structures as inner root sheath cells differentiate and cornify.

research Keratin formation in the hair follicle

34 citations , August 1966 in “Experimental cell research”

This study examined developing hair cortex with electron microscopy and found that keratin fibrils form between specific regions in hair follicles and aggregate into twisted cables.

research X-ray diffraction study of the nanostructural dynamics of fibrillar systems of hair tissue

1 citations , January 2015 in “Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences Physics”

This review examines the effects of various factors on the molecular and nanostructural ordering of human hair, highlighting its potential as a diagnostic material for environmental and public health monitoring, but reports no new experimental results.
