Exploring the Effects of Wetting and Free Fatty Acid Deposition on a Hair Fiber Surface Model Incorporating Keratin Associated Protein 5-1

research Exploring the effects of wetting and free fatty acid deposition on an atomistic hair fiber surface model incorporating Keratin Associated Protein 5-1

November 2022

This study used molecular dynamics simulations to illustrate the complex molecular behavior of the hair surface F-layer, highlighting how fatty acids interact with 18-MEA under different conditions.

research Influence of Scalp Problems on Physical Properties of Hair and Their Prevention by Plant Extracts

1 citations , January 2018 in “Journal of Society of Cosmetic Chemists of Japan”

In this study involving Japanese women, researchers found that higher scalp oil levels were linked to weaker hair structure and increased scalp inflammation, suggesting that plant-derived compounds might mitigate these effects by reducing inflammation at the genetic level.

research Expression of novel keratin associated protein 5 genes in the cuticle layer of human hair follicles

6 citations , April 2005 in “Journal of dermatological science”

This study identified the expression sites of five KAP5 genes on human chromosome 11q13.5 in scalp skin sections but did not explore their detailed distribution within hair follicles.

research Location of keratin-associated proteins in developing fiber cuticle cells using immunoelectron microscopy

10 citations , January 2010 in “International journal of trichology”

This study found that keratin-associated proteins form part of the developing exocuticle and a-layer in hair fiber cuticle cells, while cornified envelope proteins were absent.
