research Measuring changes in chemistry, composition, and molecular structure within hair fibers by infrared and Raman spectroscopic imaging
Infrared and Raman imaging can non-destructively analyze hair structure and help diagnose hair conditions.
research Lipid loses and barrier function modifications of the brown‐to‐white hair transition
White hair has less lipid content and absorbs water differently than brown hair.
research A discourse on human hair fibers and reflections on the conservation of drug molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
research Structure and hair follicle-specific expression of genes encoding the rat high sulfur protein B2 family

Antler velvet hair and body hair of red deer have different structures that help with protection and insulation.
research Hair Straightening
Hair straightening changes hair structure and can cause damage if done wrong, but improvements in the methods are expected to continue.
research Distribution of Glycolipid and Unsaturated Fatty Acids in Human Hair
Human hair has more unsaturated fats inside than on the surface, and certain lipids may help bind the outer and inner layers together.
research Organization and Expression of Hair Follicle Genes.
Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.
research Local structure of human hair spatially resolved by sub-micron X-ray beam
Human hair has a new region with ordered filaments and the cuticle contains β-keratin sheets.
research Regulatory mutations in TBX3 disrupt asymmetric hair pigmentation that underlies Dun camouflage color in horses
Mutations in TBX3 cause horses to have more even hair color instead of Dun camouflage.
research Thermal Induced Changes in Cuticle and Cortex to Chemically Treated Hair
Heat worsens damage in chemically treated hair, especially bleached and straightened hair.
research Perspectives on Hair Evolution Based on Some Comparative Studies on Vertebrate Cornification
Hair in mammals likely evolved from glandular structures, not scales.
research Perspectives and Challenges of Hair Analysis
Hair is a complex organ, and understanding its detailed structure and growth phases is crucial for analyzing substances within it.
research Krtap11-1, a hair keratin-associated protein, as a possible crucial element for the physical properties of hair shafts
Krtap11-1 is important for hair strength and structure.
research Dual‐flow‐RootChip reveals local adaptations of roots towards environmental asymmetry at the physiological and genetic levels
Roots adapt to uneven environments by changing growth and gene expression.
research A matter of life and death: self‐renewal in stem cells
Stem cell self-renewal is complex and needs more research for full understanding.
research Discrete Nanoscale Distribution of Hair Lipids Fails to Provide Humidity Resistance
Hair lipids do not protect against humidity.
research Strain and Strain Recovery of Human Hair from the Nano- to the Macroscale
Human hair can almost fully recover its structure within about 1,000 minutes after being stretched.
research Pilomatricoma in Syndromic Contexts: A Literature Review and a Report of a Case in Apert Syndrome
Pilomatricomas are often linked to genetic syndromes, especially Apert syndrome, and genetic analysis is crucial for diagnosis.
research Reshaped DNA methylation cooperating with homoeolog‐divergent expression promotes improved root traits in synthesized tetraploid wheat
DNA changes in tetraploid wheat improve root growth and nitrogen use.
research External lipid function in ethnic hairs
African hair has the most lipids, while Caucasian hair is more hydrated and stronger.
research Hair Straightening
Hair straightening methods have advanced to improve effectiveness and reduce damage, but still rely on heat and chemicals.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.
research Planar cell polarity-dependent and independent functions in the emergence of tissue-scale hair follicle patterns
Mice can correct hair follicle orientation without certain genes, but proper overall alignment needs those genes.
