Over half of the children had abnormal hair under a microscope, with many having genetic hair conditions.
research Isolation and Quantification of Glycosaminoglycans from Human Hair Shaft
Human hair contains more glycosaminoglycans in children than adults, and these compounds decrease with age, possibly affecting hair thickness.
research TENSILE STRENGTH OF SCALP HAIR IN WOMEN WITH HAIR LOSS
Women with hair loss have weaker hair that breaks more easily.
research Preliminary Studies for ^|^ldquo;Biomedical Analysis of Human Hair Exposed to Long-term Space Flight (Hair)^|^rdquo; Project: An Analysis of Trace Elements in the Hair

The circadian clock influences the behavior and regeneration of stem cells in the body.
research The Pharmacokinetics of 2.5- to 10-mg Oral Doses of Minoxidil in Healthy Volunteers
This document studied minoxidil in healthy volunteers. Minoxidil is quickly absorbed and eliminated from the body.
research Melatonin Receptors and Their Role in Human Diseases
Melatonin receptors, found in many body parts, can help treat various diseases like depression and diabetes due to their effects on inflammation, tumor progression, sleep disorders, and body mass regulation.
research Staining of human skin with RGB trichrome unveils a proteoglycan-enriched zone in the hair dermal sheath
A new staining method shows a special area in the hair's skin layer with lots of proteoglycans.
research Deletion of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl 4-hydroxylase 2 in FoxD1-lineage mesenchymal cells leads to congenital truncal alopecia
Removing a specific gene in certain skin cells causes hair loss on the body by disrupting normal hair development.
research Unwanted hair.
Women with excessive hair growth often have hormonal issues and need medical advice and treatment.
research Light microscopy of the hair: A simple tool to "untangle" hair disorders
Light microscopy is useful for diagnosing different hair disorders.
research Variation in Muskox (Ovibos moschatus) Guard Hair Growth Rates: Implications for Measuring Chronological Biomarkers
Muskox hair growth rates vary widely, so a single growth rate can't be used for all populations.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Balding hair follicle dermal papilla cells contain higher levels of androgen receptors than those from non-balding scalp
Cells from balding scalps have more androgen receptors than cells from non-balding scalps.
research Ozone interactions with human hair: Ozone uptake rates and product formation
Ozone reacts more with unwashed hair, producing compounds due to scalp oils, which could lower ozone exposure but increase exposure to reaction products.
research Stability of opiates in hair fibers after exposure to cosmetic treatment
Cosmetic treatments like bleaching and perming can greatly reduce opiate levels in hair, possibly leading to false-negative drug tests.
research Microbiome in the hair follicle of androgenetic alopecia patients
Hair loss patients have different microbes in hair follicles, possibly affecting hair loss.
research Human pollution exposure correlates with accelerated ultrastructural degradation of hair fibers
Pollution exposure speeds up hair damage.
research Acne severity and the Global Acne Grading System in polycystic ovary syndrome
Acne severity in women with PCOS is linked to younger age, lower body weight, and more body hair, but not to hormone levels.
research Investigation by Imaging Mass Spectrometry of Biomarker Candidates for Aging in the Hair Cortex
Certain molecules in hair change with age and could be used for cosmetic treatments.
research Correlation of Hair Mineral Concentrations with Insulin Resistance in Korean Males
Higher hair calcium to magnesium ratios and lower chromium levels in hair may indicate insulin resistance in Korean men.
research The hair shaft: normality, abnormality, and genetics
Hair microscopy is useful for diagnosing hair disorders, but clear definitions are needed for accurate genetic analysis.
research Towards Best Practice in Hair Metabolomic Studies: Systematic Investigation on the Impact of Hair Length and Color
Hair color and length affect metabolite profiles in hair, so they should be considered in hair analysis.
research Hair sampling for cortisol analysis with mother-toddler dyads living in low-income homes
