research Cross-Linked Features of Mouse Pelage Hair Resistant to Detergent Extraction
Some mutant mice have hair with abnormal cross-linking, mainly in the cuticle, not affecting other hair parts.
research Reactive Keratin Derivatives: A Promising Strategy for Covalent Binding to Hair
Modified keratin binds better to hair, especially bleached hair.
research On the Correlation Between the Curvature of the Human Eyelash and Its Geometrical Features
Eyelash curvature is linked to the thickness of the cuticle layer at the root.
research Compartmentation of Mitochondrial and Oxidative Metabolism in Growing Hair Follicles: A Ring of Fire
Growing hair follicles have high mitochondrial activity and ROS in specific regions, aiding hair formation.
research The G60S Connexin43 Mutant Regulates Hair Growth and Hair Fiber Morphology in a Mouse Model of Human Oculodentodigital Dysplasia
The G60S Connexin43 mutation causes hair growth issues and poor hair quality in mice, similar to human ODDD patients.
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 Structure of Intermediate Filament Assembly in Hair Deduced from Hydration Studies Using Small-Angle Neutron Scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Studies of Light Scattering from Ethnic Hair Fibers
Different hair types from various ethnic groups affect hair shine due to characteristics like thickness and shape.
research Fine Structure and Immunocytochemistry of Monotreme Hairs, with Emphasis on the Inner Root Sheath and Trichohyalin-Based Cornification During Hair Evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research An Ultrastructural Study on Corkscrew Hairs and Cigarette-Ash-Shaped Hairs Observed by Dermoscopy of Tinea Capitis
Corkscrew and cigarette-ash-shaped hairs in tinea capitis are caused by internal hair degradation and external resistance.
research Guadalupe Fur Seal Alopecia: A Metabolic Syndrome Associated to Climatic Anomalies?
Climate-related nutritional stress may cause hair loss in juvenile male Guadalupe fur seals.
research Recent Advances in the Characterization of Hair of Mummies from the Chilean Andean Coast
The hair of two ancient Chilean mummies is well-preserved and contains high levels of heavy metals.
research Regulation of Hair Growth
The document concludes that treatments like oral anti-androgens, minoxidil, and topical spironolactone can be effective for hair loss in men and women.
research Interactions Between Damaged Hair Keratin and Juglone as a Possible Restoring Agent: A Vibrational and Scanning Electron Microscopy Study
Juglone from walnut extracts may help repair damaged hair.
research Resident Stem Cells in Skin
Skin stem cells can help improve skin repair and regeneration.
research Raman Spectroscopy and Electronic Microscopy Structural Studies of Caucasian and Afro Human Hair
Hair treatments cause significant structural changes, especially with excessive heat, regardless of ethnicity.
research Isolation and Quantification of Glycosaminoglycans from Human Hair Shaft
Human hair contains more glycosaminoglycans in children than adults, and these compounds decrease with age, possibly affecting hair thickness.
research Insights on the Mechanical Behavior of Keratin Fibrils
Keratin's mechanical properties are influenced by hydrogen bonds and secondary structure, and can be improved with the SPD-2 peptide.
research The Hair Follicle: Functions, Self-Renewal, and Alopecic Disorders
Dogs could be good models for studying human hair growth and hair loss.
research Kinetics and Equilibrium of Solute Diffusion into Human Hair
Hair absorbs molecules differently based on their size, charge, and love for water, and less at higher pH; this can help make better hair products.
research Expression of the Orphan Protein Plet-1 During Trichilemmal Differentiation of Anagen Hair Follicles
Plet-1 protein helps hair follicle cells move and stick to tissues.
research Reduction Mechanism of L-Cysteine on Keratin Fibers Using Microspectrophotometry and Raman Spectroscopy
L-cysteine slows down the breaking of bonds in hair due to electrostatic interactions.
research Human KAP Genes: Only Half of It? Extensive Size Polymorphisms in Hair Keratin-Associated Protein Genes
KAP genes show significant genetic variability, but its impact on hair traits is unclear.
research Keratin-Based Particles for Protection and Restoration of Hair Properties
Keratin-based particles safely improve hair strength, smoothness, and heat protection.
