Functionalized silicones improve hair appearance, combing, and manageability.
research Histopathological and Immunohistochemical Study of Trichoblastoma in the Rabbit
Trichoblastomas in rabbits are linked to uncontrolled embryonic hair growth and have distinct histological features.
research 1390 Active hair growth is fuelled by conveyor-belt like differentiation of germinative layer cells
Hair growth is driven by cells that move and change like a conveyor belt.
research Improved two‐dimensional electrophoretic mapping of Japanese human hair proteins; application to curved and straight Japanese human hairs; and protein identification by MALDI MS and MS/MS quadrupole time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry
The study found that minor protein differences between curved and straight Japanese hair are unlikely to significantly affect hair structure.
