research A Highly Resistant Structure Between Cuticle and Cortex of Human Hair
A tough membrane between the outer and inner layers of human hair protects it from damage.
research Prognosis and Management of Congenital Hair Shaft Disorders with Fragility—Part I
Some congenital hair disorders improve in childhood or with treatments like minoxidil and retinoids, while others like Netherton syndrome and trichothiodystrophy have a poor prognosis.
research Prognosis and Management of Congenital Hair Shaft Disorders Without Fragility—Part II
Some congenital hair disorders improve with age and can be managed with treatments like minoxidil, retinoids, supplements, and gentle hair care, but there's no cure.
research Control of Human Hair Growth by Neurotrophins: Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Inhibits Hair Shaft Elongation, Induces Catagen, and Stimulates Follicular Transforming Growth Factor Beta 2 Expression
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) slows down hair growth and promotes hair follicle regression.
research Effects of Ultraviolet B Radiation on Physicochemical Properties of Human Hair Shaft
UVB radiation changes the chemical makeup and dries out human hair but doesn't alter its appearance or texture.
research Gene Expression of Mouse S100A3, a Cysteine-Rich Calcium-Binding Protein, in Developing Hair Follicle
S100A3 protein is crucial for hair shaft formation in mice.
research EGFR Controls Hair Shaft Differentiation in a p53-Independent Manner
EGFR helps control how hair grows and forms without needing p53 protein.
research Arachidonate 12-Lipoxygenase Inhibitors Promote S100A3 Citrullination in Cultured SW480 Cells and Isolated Hair Follicles
Inhibiting ALOX12 can help hair cuticle maturation by increasing S100A3 citrullination.
research Effects of Chemical Straighteners on the Hair Shaft and Scalp
Chemical hair straighteners can cause scalp and hair damage, but long-term effects are unclear.
research The Impact of AP Collagen Peptides on Hair Shaft Elasticity and Gloss: A Comprehensive Analysis
AP collagen peptides improve hair elasticity and gloss.
research Mutations in Three Genes Encoding Proteins Involved in Hair Shaft Formation Cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome
Mutations in three genes cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome, leading to frizzy hair that can't be combed flat.
research Hair Shaft Damage from Heat and Drying Time of Hair Dryer
Using a hair dryer at 15 cm with continuous motion causes less damage than natural drying.
research Age-Dependent Changes in Damage Processes of Hair Cuticle
Older people's hair cuticles get more easily damaged and lose protective oils, especially in their 40s and 50s.
research Transgenic Kallikrein 14 Mice Display Major Hair Shaft Defects Associated with Desmoglein 3 and 4 Degradation, Abnormal Epidermal Differentiation, and IL-36 Signature
Mice with extra human KLK14 had hair and skin problems, including weaker cell bonds and inflammation, linked to Netherton syndrome.
research Keys to the Diagnosis of Hair Shaft Disorders: Part II
Hair shaft disorders, often due to genetics or environment, lack specific treatments but can be managed with gentle hair care and may improve with age or topical treatments.
research Scanning Electron Microscopy Approach for Evaluation of Hair Dyed with Lawsonia Inermis Powder: In Vitro Study
Henna dye improves hair cuticle and thickness but effects vary by hair type and health.
research Trichoscopy in Genetic Hair Shaft Abnormalities
Trichoscopy is a quick and easy way to diagnose most genetic hair problems without invasive methods.
research Local Structure of Human Hair Spatially Resolved by Sub-Micron X-Ray Beam
Human hair has a new region with ordered filaments and the cuticle contains β-keratin sheets.
research Influence of Oxidative and Reductive Treatment on Human Hair: Analysis of Hair Damage
Chemical treatments and daily stresses damage hair, especially the cuticle layer.
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.

Hair keratin-associated proteins are essential for strong hair, with over 80 genes showing specific patterns and variations among people.
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 Anatomy and Physiology of Hair
Hair is important for protection, social interaction, and temperature control, and is made of a growth cycle-influenced follicle and a complex shaft.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Hair can't be reliably repaired once damaged; prevention and proper product use are key to maintaining hair health.
