840-870 / 1000+ resultsresearch Chronological ageing of human hair keratin fibres
Hair ages as the cuticle wears down, especially beyond 1 meter from the root, affecting its strength and shine.
research Bleeding tendency with corkscrew hair
Low vitamin C caused bleeding and corkscrew hair, resolved with vitamin C treatment.
research Expression of mineralized tissue associated proteins: Dentin sialoprotein and phosphophoryn in rodent hair follicles
Dentin sialoprotein and phosphophoryn are present in rodent hair follicles and may help hair growth and development.
research 13-cis-Retinoic Acid Affects Sheath-Shaft Interactions of Equine Hair Follicles in Vitro
research Ultrastructural visualization of cross-linked protein features in epidermal appendages
Cross-linked proteins help maintain the structure of hair, feathers, and hagfish teeth.
research Pediculosis
Scalp biopsies are important for diagnosing hair loss conditions.
research Self-Assembly of Solubilized Human Hair Keratins
Human hair keratins can form stable nanofiber networks that might help in tissue regeneration.
research 3P343 Change of cell membrane complex of a hair fiber caused by hair damage
Chemical treatments damage hair more than UV exposure, making it thinner and less flexible.
research Fine Structure of the Fully Keratinized Hair Cuticle in the Head Hair of the Human
Human hair cuticle has five cell layers with specific junctions and granules.
research Effect of disulfide bonds in human hair fibers on the melting behavior of their crystalline structure
Disulfide bonds affect the melting behavior of hair's crystalline structure, but hair retains some stability even after these bonds are broken.
research Trichoscopy as a diagnostic tool in trichorrhexis invaginata and Netherton syndrome
Trichoscopy is useful for diagnosing Netherton syndrome in children with skin issues.
research Properties of Partially Extracted Hairs and their Degradability by Proteases
Mf-rich hair degrades more than Ma-rich hair, especially with Proteinase K.
research A Missense Mutation in the Zinc-Finger Domain of the Human Hairless Gene Underlies Congenital Atrichia in a Family of Irish Travellers
A specific gene mutation causes complete hair loss in an Irish Traveller family.
research A Raman spectroscopy investigation of the resilience of hair cuticular scales under uniaxial stress
research Amino Acid Compositions of Human Hair Fibrous Protein Components Purified with Two‐dimensional Electrophoresis
Human hair proteins have similar cysteine and glycine levels to skin proteins.
research The structure of human trichohyalin : potential multiple roles as a functional ef-hand-like calcium-binding protein, a cornified cell envelope precursor, and an intermediate filament-associated (cross-linking) protein
Trichohyalin is a versatile protein involved in hair and skin structure.
research Clinicopathological insights into the phenotypic variation of autosomal recessive hypotrichosis/wooly hair by c.736T>A LIPH mutation
The conclusion is that the variation in hair thinness in patients is mostly due to the amount of underdeveloped hairs, and treatments that thicken fine hairs might work for those with mild to severe conditions.
research Hair Keratin: Composition, Structure and Biogenesis
research Generation of iPS-derived model cells for analyses of hair shaft differentiation
Researchers created a mouse cell line to study hair growth and test hair growth drugs.
