Human hair strength and health are linked to sulfur compounds that can be reduced by stress but improved with sulfur supplements.

Disulfide bonds are crucial for hair's strength, especially when wet.

Hidradenitis Suppurativa has genetic links, with certain gene mutations more common in patients and a third of cases having a family history.

The document concludes that certain mutations may contribute to the inflammation in hidradenitis suppurativa and suggests that targeting TNFα could be a treatment strategy.

Proteins like BSA and keratin can effectively style hair and protect it, offering eco-friendly alternatives to chemical products.

Hair treatments like bleaching increase friction by exposing tiny pores on the hair surface.

Small proline-rich proteins and trichohyalin help make epithelial tissues tougher and more flexible.

High glycine–tyrosine keratin-associated proteins help make hair strong and maintain its shape.

Nitric Oxide has potential in medicine, especially for infections and heart treatments, but its short life and delivery challenges limit its use.

Organic and biogenic nanocarriers can improve drug delivery but face challenges like consistency and safety.

Bleaching hair changes its structure and weakens it, which is important for understanding hair damage and creating treatments.

Cornification is the process where living skin cells die to create a protective barrier, and problems with it can cause skin diseases.

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.

K18® and Olaplex® both effectively repair bleached hair, improving its strength, smoothness, and overall health.

A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.

Prostaglandin D2 blocks new hair growth after skin injury through the Gpr44 receptor.

Different hair protein amounts change the strength of keratin/chitosan gels, useful for making predictable tissue engineering materials.

Black women's unique hair characteristics and styling practices can lead to specific scalp conditions, which require early diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Cat color patterns are determined early in development by gene expression and epidermal changes, with the Dickkopf 4 gene playing a crucial role.

AFM helped show how hair changes under tension and the effects of damage and conditioner.

Hair treatments and dehydration affect hair's lipid and protein behavior, influencing its flexibility and appearance.

Protein composition greatly affects the function of keratin biomaterials.

MALDI Imaging Mass Spectrometry is a useful method for studying skin conditions, but sample preparation is crucial for accurate results.

The study found that variations in hair protein genes are likely due to evolutionary deletions or duplications.

Scientists successfully purified a protein called Wnt3a, which is involved in processes like hair growth, but the overall yield was low, suggesting more work is needed to improve this.

Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) help control skin health, hair growth, and color, and could potentially be used to treat skin and hair disorders.

Asia has made significant progress in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, but wider clinical use requires more development.

Hair follicles are valuable for regenerative medicine and wound healing.

Tight hairstyles, especially on chemically treated hair, can cause reversible hair loss if caught early but may become permanent if not addressed.

New treatments for skin and hair disorders in women of color address unique biological differences and include specific acne medications, sunscreens, skin lighteners, and hair care adjustments.
