Hair properties change under electromagnetic fields and are influenced by individual characteristics and the environment.

This study found that FM dyes are effective markers for tracing live Merkel cells in in vitro experiments, as they remain visible for at least seven days and highlight cell shape better than quinacrine.

This article suggests that male pattern hair loss might have historically served as an evolutionary signal for women to choose younger male partners, potentially improving population fitness.

This study found that personal and professional qualities affecting motivation in female municipal servants are systematically organized yet differ quantitatively and qualitatively from those in the general sample, highlighting the importance of considering gender differences when improving motivation for local self-government tasks.

This study found that white hair demonstrated denser and more hydrophobic properties compared to black hair.

This study observed that individuals with major unipolar depression have higher levels of sodium and potassium in their hair and decreased antidiuretic hormone levels, similar to changes seen in astronauts after space missions.

Hair feels different when touched and rubs together in various ways.

This study found no significant association between genetic loci linked to male androgenetic alopecia and female-pattern hair loss in a Chinese Han population, suggesting they are etiologically separate disorders.

This study found that in naturally curved human scalp hairs, distinct arrangements of cell types on either side of the hair fiber contribute to its curvature.

Women's hair has more sulfur, and black hair has more calcium than white hair.

This study calculated the molecular properties of finasteride using PM3 methods, providing insights into its characteristics despite the lack of published data on these properties.

In this research, the authors identify coordinated mechanical forces as crucial for hair follicle development in mammals, with contractile, proliferative, and proteolytic activities facilitating the formation and sectioning of epithelial structures crucial for forming a functional tissue.

This study observed that hair fibers in older women become more curved with age, decreasing hair luster due to their disordered alignment and structural differences between the convex and concave sides.

This study found that water hardness metals like calcium and magnesium can stiffen hair fibers, reduce combing forces, and affect style retention, with varied effects on virgin and bleached hair.

In this study, researchers developed a mathematical model of outer hair cell hair bundles that replicates experimental responses to mechanical stimuli, providing insights into the stimulus-dependent adaptation mechanisms and the functional significance of their three-row stereocilia configuration in mammalian hearing.

This study comprehensively compared different crystalline forms of finasteride, including the new finasteride DMF solvate hemihydrate, to better understand their structural characteristics and intermolecular interactions.

In this study, a method using nano-sized iron particles successfully captured images of sub-dermal hair follicles, showing comparable size and shape to those removed from the skin.

This study found that applying hair conditioner during a permanent wave process in the middle rather than early or late improves tensile strength, hydration, and maintains healthier hair cuticle structure.

This study found that the concentrations of major inorganic elements in human scalp hair increase with age up to 25 years, and calcium and magnesium concentrations are significantly associated with sex in individuals over 20.

This study aimed to determine if MRI can assess anatomical changes in the scalp caused by androgenetic alopecia, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, treating hair with thioglycolic acid was found to alter disulfide bond patterns in keratin-associated proteins, shifting them from an ellipsoidal to a near-spherical shape.

This study found that male pattern baldness in European males is strongly heritable and associated with genetic markers linked to earlier puberty, bone density, and pancreatic function.

The study found that the break force of human hair significantly depends on hair diameter and strain, but not on age, gender, use of hair dye, or drugs.

This study found that males with a maternal history of androgenetic alopecia were significantly more likely to have female pattern hair loss, suggesting early screening might be beneficial.

This review discusses pyrene excimer nucleic acid probes for detecting biomolecules and protein-DNA interactions and reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that Polyquaternium-87 significantly reduced friction forces on hair surfaces treated with various shampoo formulations, highlighting its potential for improving hair care products.

This study demonstrated that in live rodents, actin filaments adjust their structure to facilitate membrane transfer between cellular compartments with different biophysical properties.

This study identified a novel missense MAFB variant in a family with some unaffected members, suggesting incomplete penetrance and the potential influence of modifier genes, epigenetic mechanisms, or environmental factors on MCTO phenotype.

Light can be used to stimulate ear hair cells, improving speed and consistency over previous methods.
