240-270 / 1000+ results research Structure and expression of genes for a class of cysteine-rich proteins of the cuticle layers of differentiating wool and hair follicles.
Researchers found genes for cysteine-rich proteins that form the protective layer of hair in humans and sheep.
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 Ultrastructural localization of hair keratins, high sulfur keratin-associated proteins and sulfhydryl oxidase in the human hair
Hair proteins change location and structure as hair cells mature.

research Structural analysis of the outermost hair surface using TOF-SIMS with gas cluster ion beam sputtering
The hair's outermost surface has multiple layers of lipids and proteins.
research Unzipping the cuticle of the human hair shaft to obtain micron/nano keratin filaments
Researchers extracted tiny keratin filaments from human hair by unzipping its outer layer.

B-type hairs on female butterfly legs help them choose where to lay eggs.
research Comparative aspects of the inner root sheath in adult and developing hairs of mammals in relation to the evolution of hairs
The inner root sheath evolved to help hair grow safely through the skin in mammals.
research Internal structural changes in age‐related curved hair due to cyclical extension: An IR spectroscopy study
Age-related hair curvature increases due to internal structural changes from grooming.
research Recognition of the ultrastructure of the hair follicle of Cashmere goats under the transmission electron microscope
Recognizing ultrastructures of cashmere goat hair follicles helps identify and locate follicle layers.

Growing hairs are easier to pull out than resting hairs due to different anchorage strengths.
research Structural changes in hair with fungus infections
research Extractable substances from human hair: a discussion about the origin of the holes
Holes in mature hair are likely caused by the removal of substances during hair care.
research Characterization of Hair Follicles in Hirosaki Hairless Rats with Deletion of Basic Hair Keratin Genes. Enlarged Medulla, Loss of Cuticle and Long Catagen
Hirosaki hairless rats have sparse, twisted hair due to missing hair keratin genes.
