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.

Understanding normal hair growth and loss in children is key to diagnosing and treating hair disorders.

Scientists successfully created mouse hair proteins in the lab, which are stable and similar to natural hair.

Hair microscopy is useful for diagnosing hair disorders, but clear definitions are needed for accurate genetic analysis.

Disulfide bonds make keratin in hair stronger and tougher.

Hair and wool have diverse keratins and keratin-associated proteins.

A new keratin, hK6irs1, is found in all layers of the hair follicle's inner root sheath.

Human hair keratin fibers have a detailed nano-scale structure that changes with different conditions.

Human hair keratin might be good for filtering out harmful substances from water.

The document concludes that the human keratin gene cluster is complex, with a need for updated naming to reflect over 50 functional genes important for hair and skin biology.

An apple-based supplement was found to stimulate hair protein production, which may help with hair growth.

Human hair has a new region with ordered filaments and the cuticle contains β-keratin sheets.

Keratin's mechanical properties are influenced by hydrogen bonds and secondary structure, and can be improved with the SPD-2 peptide.

Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.

Hair proteins have weak spots in their α-helical segments.

New treatments targeting specific genes show promise for treating keratin disorders.

Proteins influence the quality and traits of cashmere goat fleece, affecting hair strength and diameter.

Hair keratin treatments can be harmful, potentially causing health issues like skin reactions and cancer.

Human hair follicle organ culture is a useful model for hair research with potential for studying hair biology and testing treatments.

Some hair protein genes evolved early and were adapted for use in hair follicles.

Two patients with the same genetic mutation had both blistering skin and easily pulled out hair.

Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.

Harlequin mutant mice have hair loss due to low AIF protein levels and retroviral element activity.

KAP-depleted hair causes less immune response and is more biocompatible for implants.

TGM3 is important for skin and hair structure and may help diagnose cancer.

Estrogen therapy helped regrow hair in a bald man.
