research Stiffness of Human Hair Correlates with the Fractions of Cortical Cell Types
In this study, the bending stiffness of human hair was linked to the varying proportions of para-like versus ortho-like cortical cells within the hair fiber.

This study found that in naturally curved human scalp hairs, distinct arrangements of cell types on either side of the hair fiber contribute to its curvature.
research Transforming growth factor-alpha immunoreactivity during induced hair follicle growth cycles in sheep and ferrets.
This study suggests that TGF-alpha may function in an autocrine or juxtacrine manner rather than promoting cell proliferation during hair growth cycles in ferrets and sheep.
research A modular modeling approach for investigating wool critical buckling from biologically variable along-fiber microstructure
This study introduces a modular fiber model to investigate how changes in microstructural properties of wool affect its critical buckling load, highlighting potential uses and areas needing further research in wool fiber biophysics.
research The in vitro plasticity of hair follicle dermal and mesenchymal stem cells
This study observed that stem cells from the hair follicle dermis share similarities with bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells and have potential to form neural-like cells under specific conditions.
