Hair analysis may help detect breast cancer early by identifying changes in lipid content.
research A Microscopic Study of the Hair of the Rabbit, with Special Reference to its Form of Cross-section and Granular Pigmentation
Rabbit hair color is influenced by the shape and distribution of pigment granules.
research Mapping the accessibility of the disulfide crosslink network in the wool fiber cortex
Cysteines in wool fibers are accessible and form important disulfide bonds.
research Analysis of heterogeneous reaction between reducing agents and keratin fibers using Raman spectroscopy and microspectrophotometry
The study found that thioglycolic acid breaks down hair bonds more consistently than l-cysteine, which is less damaging to hair.
research Molecular modeling and structural characterization of a high glycine–tyrosine hair keratin associated protein
The 3D structure of a key hair protein was modeled, revealing specific helical structures and stabilization features.
research Discussion: Themes in the Molecular Structure of Hair
Keratin proteins are crucial for hair structure and strength.
research WNT Signaling in the Control of Hair Growth and Structure
The research shows that a gene called Wnt3 affects hair growth and structure, causing short hair and balding when overactive.
research Hair colouring, permanent styling and hair structure
Frequent hair coloring and styling can damage hair and cause breakage or loss.
research Raman spectroscopy and electronic microscopy structural studies of Caucasian and Afro human hair
Hair treatments cause significant structural changes, especially with excessive heat, regardless of ethnicity.
research The structure of hair and follicles of mice carrying the naked (N) gene
Mice with the naked gene have missing or abnormal hair cells.
research pH Dependence of the Coiled-Coil Structure of Keratin Intermediate Filament in Human Hair by 13C NMR Spectroscopy and the Mechanism of Its Disruption
Keratin structure in hair is stable at pH 5-6 but disrupts between pH 6-7.
research Structural abnormalities of the hair shaft
The document concludes that understanding hair structure is key to diagnosing hair abnormalities and recommends gentle hair care for management.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: annotated tables
Mutant mice help researchers understand hair growth and related genetic factors.
research Influence of feed restriction on the wool proteome: A combined iTRAQ and fiber structural study
Feed restriction in sheep leads to finer wool fibers but may reduce wool quality.
research Structural features of the α-type filaments of the inner root sheath cells of the guinea pig hair follicle
α-type filaments in guinea pig hair follicles have unique structural features.
research Genetics of Structural Hair Disorders
The document concludes that over 500 genes are linked to hair disorders and this knowledge is important for creating new treatments.
research Fine structure and immunocytochemistry of monotreme hairs, with emphasis on the inner root sheath and trichohyalin‐based cornification during hair evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research Effect of equilibrium pH on the structure and properties of bleach‐damaged human hair fibers
Hair's structure and properties change with pH; acidic pH maintains strength and less swelling, while alkaline pH increases water content and swelling.
research Structural changes of hair shaft after application of chemical hair straighteners: Clinical and histopathological study
Chemical hair straightening improves smoothness and shine but may cause side effects, suggesting a need for safer methods.
research Crystal structure of steroid reductase SRD5A reveals conserved steroid reduction mechanism
The structure of SRD5A reveals how it reduces steroids, aiding drug design for related health conditions.
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 Structural Abnormalities in the Hair of a Patient with a Novel Ribosomopathy
The patient's hair was thinner and had fewer lipids due to a genetic mutation.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The skin has multiple layers and cells, serves as a protective barrier, helps regulate temperature, enables sensation, affects appearance, and is involved in vitamin D synthesis.
research Disulfide Cross-Linked Network Structure of Intermediate Filament and Matrix in Hair and Wool Cortices
Hair and wool strength is affected by the number and type of bonds in their protein structures, with hair having more protein aggregates than wool.
research Structural Changes of Hair Keratin by Reduction, Heat and subsequent Oxidation Treatments
DTDG in hair treatments reduces damage and preserves hair structure.
research Adrenal Cortex Tumors and Hyperplasias
Most adrenal cortex tumors are benign and non-secreting, but proper diagnosis and treatment are important due to the rare possibility of cancer.
research Structural analysis of human hair fibers under the ultra‐high voltage electron microscope
Human hair structure varies by ethnicity, and certain treatments can improve hair condition and appearance.
research Structure and Development of the Skin and Cutaneous Appendages
Understanding skin structure and development helps diagnose and treat skin disorders.
research Investigating the internal structure of sheep wool hair fibre using new microscopic techniques
Curly wool has more orthocortex than straight wool.
