research Pilot Study of a Novel Treatment for Androgenetic Alopecia Using Enriched Cell Culture Medium: Clinical Trials
A new treatment for hair loss was tested and most participants saw their hair loss stop within 2-8 weeks, with up to 50% more hair after 4 months, and no side effects.
research The Susceptibility of Disulfide Bonds to Modification in Keratin Fibers Undergoing Tensile Stress
Disulfide bonds in keratin fibers break more easily under stress, especially when wet, affecting fiber strength.
research Spatiotemporal Expression and Haplotypes Identification of KRT84 Gene and Their Association with Wool Traits in Gansu Alpine Fine-Wool Sheep
The KRT84 gene is linked to better wool quality in Gansu Alpine Fine-wool sheep.
research Effects of KRTAP20-1 Gene Variation on Wool Traits in Chinese Tan Sheep
Variant G of the KRTAP20-1 gene improves wool curliness in Chinese Tan sheep.
research A Comparison of Transcriptomic Patterns Measured in the Skin of Chinese Fine and Coarse Wool Sheep Breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research Fluoroquinolone-Induced Serious, Persistent, Multisymptom Adverse Effects
Some people experience severe, long-lasting side effects from fluoroquinolone antibiotics, leading to the recommendation of limited use and increased awareness of these risks.
research Influence of Feed Restriction on the Wool Proteome: A Combined iTRAQ and Fiber Structural Study
Feed restriction in sheep leads to finer wool fibers but may reduce wool quality.
research Using Proteomics to Compare the Molecular Structures of Sulfide and Permeate-Depilated Sheepskins
The conclusion is that using bovine milk permeate to remove wool from sheepskins is eco-friendly and results in smoother, higher quality leather compared to traditional sulfide methods.
research Exogen Involves Gradual Release of the Hair Club Fiber in the Vibrissa Follicle Model
Hair sheds gradually from the follicle, with readiness to shed indicated by less attachment material.
research Penetration of Oils into Hair
Plant oils like coconut, camellia, and safflower can penetrate hair, making it stronger and softer.
research From Telogen to Exogen: Mechanisms Underlying Formation and Subsequent Loss of the Hair Club Fiber
Hair shedding is an active process that could be targeted to treat hair loss.
research A Conditional Multi-Trait Sequence GWAS Discovers Pleiotropic Candidate Genes and Variants for Sheep Wool, Skin Wrinkle, and Breech Cover Traits
Researchers found genes and genetic variants linked to sheep wool and skin wrinkles.
research The Effects of Minoxidil, 1% Pyrithione Zinc, and a Combination of Both on Hair Density: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Minoxidil and pyrithione zinc combo most effectively increases hair density.
research Treatments for Androgenetic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata
Minoxidil and finasteride treat hair loss; more research needed for other options.
research Skin Structure
Human skin has multiple layers and functions, with key roles in protection, temperature control, and appearance.
research Seasonal Variation in Hair Follicle Activity and Fiber Growth of Both Male and Female Merghoz Goats in Western Iran
Goat hair growth and follicle activity change with the seasons and differ between males and females.
research Investigation of Some Amino Acid Analogues and Metabolites as Inhibitors of Wool and Hair Growth
Certain amino acid analogues can inhibit wool and hair growth and affect fiber strength.
research Chapter 4: Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
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 Protection and Restoration of Damaged Hair via a Polyphenol Complex by Promoting Mechanical Strength, Antistatic, and Ultraviolet Protection Properties
A new hair treatment using a natural polyphenol complex improves hair strength, reduces static, and protects against UV damage.
research Understanding Curly Hair Mechanics: Fiber Strength
Curly hair is mechanically different from straight hair and may need new testing methods.
research Repair of Damaged Hair Protein Fiber by Jointly Using Transglutaminase and Keratin
Using an enzyme and keratin treatment can significantly repair and strengthen damaged hair.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Use of Silicon for Skin and Hair Care: An Approach to Chemical Forms Available and Efficacy
Silicon can improve skin and hair health, but more research is needed.
research Effect of Scalp Position on Tensile Properties of Single Hair Fibers
Hair strength is similar across different scalp areas, and not affected by age, gender, or hair thickness.
research Highly Conserved Keratin-Associated Protein 7-1 Gene in Yak, Taurine, and Zebu Cattle
The KRTAP7-1 gene is very similar across different cattle and yak breeds and likely plays a role in hair strength and shape.
research Chronological Aging of Human Hair Keratin Fibers
Hair ages as the cuticle wears down, especially beyond 1 meter from the root, affecting its strength and shine.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research Effect of Freezing-Thawing on Clayey Soils Reinforced with Human Hair Fibers
Adding human hair to clayey soil makes it stronger, even after freeze-thaw cycles, and is eco-friendly and cheap.
