The 14-3-3σ gene is essential for preventing hair loss.
research The Keratins of the Human Beard Hair Medulla: The Riddle in the Middle
Human beard hair medulla contains a unique and complex mix of keratins not found in other human tissues.
research Overexpression of Hoxc13 in differentiating keratinocytes results in downregulation of a novel hair keratin gene cluster and alopecia
Overexpression of Hoxc13 in hair cells causes hair loss and skin issues.
research Unruly hair
The document concludes that unruly hair can be congenital or acquired, often lacks specific treatments, and can be managed with oils and short hairstyles.
research Microscopic Study concerning Hair Form of One Family in the Mixed Blood between European and Ponapean
Hair form in mixed-blood families varies due to hereditary twist-knots and pigment formation.
research Hair—the most sophisticated biological composite material
Hair is a complex protein fiber with unique properties useful for developing hair products.
research Molecular evolution of the keratin associated protein gene family in mammals, role in the evolution of mammalian hair
KRTAP genes evolved early in mammals, leading to diverse hair traits.
research Editor's evaluation: Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Hairlessness in mammals is due to complex genetic changes in both genes and regulatory regions.
research A highly resistant structure between the cuticle and the cortex of human hair. II . CARB , a penetration barrier
CARB is a strong barrier in human hair that prevents dye penetration.
research Morphological Study on the Coat Hair in Golden Takin
Golden takin's hair structure is adapted to maintain body temperature in harsh winters.
research Analysis of Hair Follicles in Mutant Laboratory Mice
Understanding normal hair follicle development helps analyze abnormalities in mutant mice.
research Symmetry breaking of tissue mechanics in wound induced hair follicle regeneration of laboratory and spiny mice
Tissue stiffness affects hair follicle regeneration, and Twist1 is a key regulator.
research Ultrastructural Localization of Hair Keratins in Human Scalp Hair Shafts as Revealed by Rapid-Freezing Immunocytochemistry.
Hair keratins are mainly on macrofibrils in the cortex and in the endocuticle in the cuticle.
research Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy Analysis of Human Hair Fiber Structure
Human hair has different protein structures in its cuticle and cortex.
