research A Study on the Conditioning Effects of Natural Shampoos Using the Scanning Electron Microscope
Natural shampoos made in the lab conditioned hair better than commercial ones with chemicals.
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 Intrinsic Activation of Cell Growth and Differentiation in Ex Vivo Cultured Human Hair Follicles by a Transient Endogenous Production of ROS
Temporary ROS production in cultured human hair follicles promotes growth and stem cell activation.
research Fundamental Studies on the Interaction Between Moisture and Textiles. Part X. Moisture Sorption Properties of Wool and Hair Fibers
Wool and hair fibers absorb moisture similarly due to their keratin structure, with the amount of non-crystalline areas affecting the moisture uptake.
research How Different Is Human Hair? A Critical Appraisal of Global Hair Fibre Characteristics and Properties Towards Defining a More Relevant Framework for Hair Type Classification
Human hair varies widely and should be classified by curl type rather than race.
research Characterization of Follicular Minoxidil Sulfotransferase Activity in a Cohort of Pattern Hair Loss Patients from the Indian Subcontinent
About 41% of Indian hair loss patients have low enzyme activity that affects hair loss treatment effectiveness, with men affected more than women. Testing for this can guide treatment.
research Effect of Miscanthus Sinensis Var. Purpurascens Flower Extract on Proliferation and Molecular Regulation in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and Stressed C57BL/6 Mice
Miscanthus sinensis flower extract may help promote hair growth and prevent hair loss.
research Effect of Melatonin Administration to Lactating Cashmere Goats on Milk Production of Dams and Hair Follicle Development in Their Offspring
Melatonin increases cashmere quality in goats but reduces their milk production and doesn't affect their offspring's hair growth.
research A Review of the Etiologies, Clinical Characteristics, and Treatment of Canities
Gray hair is caused by reduced melanin production or transfer issues, linked to aging and possibly health conditions, with treatments focusing on color camouflage.
research Effect of Ethanol Adiantum Capillus-Veneris Extract in Experimental Models of Anxiety and Depression
Maidenhair fern extract reduced anxiety and depression in rats and may work due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
research Integration Analysis of Transcriptome and Proteome Reveals the Mechanisms of Goat Wool Bending
The research identified key proteins and genes that may influence wool bending in goats.
research Effect of Intense Pulsed Light Treatment on Human Skin In Vitro: Analysis of Immediate Effects on Dermal Papillae and Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Intense pulsed light treatment mainly damages pigmented hair parts but spares stem cells, allowing hair to regrow.
research The Microanatomy of Human Skin in Aging
Aging skin shows thinner layers, fewer hair follicles, and new biomarkers like increased space between cells and smaller sebaceous glands.
research The Use of Biodegradable Microneedle Patches to Increase Penetration of Topical Steroid for Prurigo Nodularis
Biodegradable microneedle patches help topical steroids work better for prurigo nodularis.
research Amelioration of Androgenetic Alopecia by Algal Oligosaccharides Prepared by Deep-Sea Bacterium Biodegradation
Algal oligosaccharides help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth.
research The Effect of Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Conditioned Medium Gel on Burn Wound Healing in Rats
The mesenchymal stem cell-conditioned medium gel improved burn healing and hair growth in rats better than other treatments.
research Characterization of Human Ovarian Teratoma Hair Using AFM, FT-IR, and Raman Spectroscopy
Teratoma hair is similar to scalp hair but has a rougher surface and lower adhesive force.
research The Role of CTHRC1 in Hair Follicle Regenerative Capacity Restored by Plantar Dermis Homogenate
CTHRC1 helps hair grow back, and plantar dermis mixture boosts it.
research A Rare Case of Tinea Capitis in Morocco Due to Trichophyton Tonsurans
A Moroccan athlete got a rare scalp infection, stressing the need for better hygiene in sports.
research HDAC6-Dependent Deacetylation of NGF Dictates Its Ubiquitination and Maintains Primordial Follicle Dormancy
HDAC6 helps keep ovarian follicles dormant, extending female fertility.
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 Label-Free Proteomics to Identify Keratins and Keratin-Associated Proteins and Their Effects on the Fleece Traits of Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats
Proteins influence the quality and traits of cashmere goat fleece, affecting hair strength and diameter.
research Ultrastructural Characteristics of Neonate Scalp Hair
Neonate scalp hair is thinner, lacks a medulla, and has smaller follicles compared to adult hair.
research Regenerative Medicine of Epidermal Structures
New treatments for skin and hair repair show promise, but further improvements are needed.
research The Nuts and Bolts of Low-Level Laser Therapy
Low-level Laser Therapy may help reduce inflammation, pain, and aid healing, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness and establish standard treatment guidelines.
research Penetration of Drugs Through Skin: A Complex Rate-Controlling Membrane
The skin is a complex barrier for drug penetration, but understanding its structure and interactions can improve drug delivery methods.
research Effect of Minoxidil on Proliferation and Apoptosis in Dermal Papilla Cells of Human Hair Follicle
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by increasing cell production and survival.
research Self-Organization Process in Newborn Skin Organoid Formation Inspires Strategy to Restore Hair Regeneration of Adult Cells
Newborn mouse skin cells can grow hair and this process can be recreated in adult cells to potentially help with hair loss.
research Whole-Genome Sequencing of Eight Goat Populations for the Detection of Selection Signatures Underlying Production and Adaptive Traits
