research Study of Seed Hair Growth in Populus Tomentosa, an Important Character of Female Floral Bud Development
Poplar seed hairs grow from the placenta at the ovary base, with endoreduplication playing a key role in their development, and share similar cellulose synthesis processes with cotton fibers.
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 Effect of Ultraviolet Radiation, Smoking, and Nutrition on Hair
Ultraviolet rays damage hair, smoking may cause hair loss, and good nutrition is important for hair health, but genetics mainly decide hair thickness.
research Chapter 4: Cytomechanics of Hair

research Immunoregulatory Mechanisms and Stress Hormones in Psoriasis (Part 1)
Stress hormones like cortisol may trigger psoriasis flare-ups.
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 Clinical Relevance of Hair Microscopy in Alopecia
Hair microscopy is useful for diagnosing certain hair loss conditions but has limitations and must be interpreted carefully.
