research Direct Observation of Hair Components Involved in Formation of Permanent Waves
Microfibrils are key for permanent waves, and hydrolyzed keratin improves wave formation and hair condition.
research Hair Keratin Associated Proteins: Characterization of a Second High Sulfur KAP Gene Domain on Human Chromosome 21 in Fond Memory of Dr. Peter Steinert
A second domain of high sulfur KAP genes on chromosome 21q23 is crucial for hair structure.
research Integral Hair Lipid in Human Hair Follicle
Human hair has a protective lipid layer that can be damaged by moisture and treatments, affecting hair growth and health.
research Discovery of a Sol–Gel Reinforcing the Strength of Hair Structure: Mechanisms of Action and Macroscopic Effects on the Hair
A small molecule can strengthen fine hair, making it more resistant and natural-feeling.
research The Effect of Intermediate Treatment Using Natural Polyphenol Cross-Linker on Perming Efficiency and Hair Protection
Using natural polyphenol cross-linkers like tannic acid and green tea extract in perm treatments improves curling and protects hair.
research 28 Hair Restoration
Modern hair restoration techniques can effectively treat hair loss and provide natural-looking results.
research Hair Transplantation: Causes, Techniques, and Future Prospects
Hair transplantation is a treatment for hair loss mainly caused by genetics, with various techniques and potential complications, and results visible after 8-12 months.
research Whole Exome Sequencing in Alopecia Areata Identifies Rare Variants in KRT82
Rare changes in the KRT82 gene are linked to a higher risk of Alopecia Areata.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research 2015
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
research Trichoscopy in Hair Shaft Disorders
Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing hair disorders without pulling out hair.
research Exogenous and Endogenous Lipids of Human Hair
Removing external lipids from hair reduces moisture and increases strength, while removing internal lipids decreases water permeability.
research Inducing Hair Follicle Neogenesis by Defined Extracellular Factors
Certain factors can start hair growth in adult skin by making cells communicate and form new hair follicles.
research Asian Hair: A Review of Structures, Properties, and Distinctive Disorders
Asian hair is generally straight and thick, with unique disorders and properties, and more research is needed to understand it fully.
research Characterization of the Cysteine-Rich Calcium-Binding S100A3 Protein from Human Hair Cuticles
Scientists found out how a specific protein in human hair cuticles behaves and is structured.
research Abnormal Wool Growth and Alopecia of Artificially Reared Lambs
Lambs fed a liquid diet showed abnormal wool and skin, which improved with more B-vitamins, suggesting a link to B-vitamin deficiency.
research Histocompatibility and Long-Term Results of Follicular Unit-Like Wigs After Xenogeneic Hair Transplantation: An Experimental Study in Rabbits
The wigs made from human hair and polypropylene were mostly well-tolerated and durable in rabbits, suggesting they could be a new option for people with extensive hair loss.
research Discrete Nanoscale Distribution of Hair Lipids Fails to Provide Humidity Resistance
Hair lipids do not protect against humidity.
research Analysis of Heterogeneous Reaction Between Reducing Agents and Keratin Fibers Using Raman Spectroscopy and Microspectrophotometry
The study found that thioglycolic acid breaks down hair bonds more consistently than l-cysteine, which is less damaging to hair.
research A Methodological Exploration of Distinguishing Hair Quality Based on Hair Proteomics
Bleaching damages hair by reducing the quality of keratin and keratin-associated proteins.
research Extractable Substances from Human Hair: A Discussion About the Origin of the Holes
Holes in mature hair are likely caused by the removal of substances during hair care.
research Strain and Strain Recovery of Human Hair from the Nano- to the Macroscale
Human hair can almost fully recover its structure within about 1,000 minutes after being stretched.
research Characterization of Human KAP24.1, A Cuticular Hair Keratin-Associated Protein with Unusual Amino Acid Composition and Repeat Structure
Scientists discovered a unique hair protein, KAP24.1, with a special structure, found only in the upper part of hair cuticles.
research Transglutaminase-3 Enzyme: A Putative Actor in Human Hair Shaft Scaffolding?
TGase 3 helps build hair structure by forming strong bonds between proteins.
research Mu-Crystallin, Thyroid Hormone-Binding Protein, Is Expressed Abundantly in the Murine Inner Root Sheath Cells
μ-Crystallin may help hair growth by affecting thyroid hormone levels in mouse hair follicles.
research A Review of Keratin-Based Biomaterials for Biomedical Applications
