research Fundamental studies on the interaction between moisture and textiles. Part X. Moisture sorption properties of wool and hair fibers.
Wool and hair fibers absorb moisture similarly due to their keratin structure, with the amount of non-crystalline areas affecting the moisture uptake.
research Topobiology of Human Pigmentation: P-Cadherin Selectively Stimulates Hair Follicle Melanogenesis
P-cadherin is crucial for hair follicle pigmentation but not skin pigmentation.
research Spatial variation and associated genes of total hair follicle density in goats
Four genes affect hair follicle density in goats.
research African hair morphology: macrostructure to ultrastructure
African hair is more fragile due to its unique shape and internal structure.
research Pili Trianguli et Canaliculi Is a Defect of Inner Root Sheath Keratinization
The hair defect is due to abnormal inner root sheath keratinization.
research Combining multiomics to analyze the molecular mechanism of hair follicle cycle change in cashmere goats from Inner Mongolia
Apoptosis and ribosomal proteins are key in hair follicle cycle changes in cashmere goats.
research A Raman spectroscopy investigation of the resilience of hair cuticular scales under uniaxial stress
Hair cuticles remain stable and resilient under stress due to strong protein content and crosslinking.
research Epidermal patterning and induction of different hair types during mouse embryonic development
Different body areas in mice produce different hair types due to interactions between skin layers.
research Hair Follicle Miniaturization in a Woolly Hair Nevus
The boy with woolly hair nevus had thinner hair and abnormal hair follicles, which improved with treatment but worsened when treatment stopped.
research A novel method for visualizing hair lipids at the cell membrane complex: Argon sputter etching/scanning electron microscopy1
The method shows how hair lipids form specific patterns and their roles in hair structure.
research Chitinase 3-Like 1 and C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 5 proteins and the hair cycle
CHI3L1 and CXCL5 proteins help promote hair growth.
research Nanoindentation of Hair Cortex and Medulla Regions
research Characterization of a Hair (Wool) Keratin Intermediate Filament Gene Domain
research An Unusual Ala12Thr Polymorphism in the 1A α-Helical Segment of the Companion Layer-Specific Keratin K6hf: Evidence for a Risk Factor in the Etiology of the Common Hair Disorder Pseudofolliculitis Barbae
research Human hair follicle organ culture: theory, application and perspectives
Human hair follicle organ culture is a useful model for hair research with potential for studying hair biology and testing treatments.
research Unlocking the genetic secrets of Dorper sheep: insights into wool shedding and hair follicle development
Dorper sheep's wool shedding is linked to specific genes and pathways, which may help understand human hair growth.
research Investigation of human hair fibers using lateral force microscopy
Hair treatments like bleaching increase friction by exposing tiny pores on the hair surface.
research Exogenous and endogenous lipids of human hair
Removing external lipids from hair reduces moisture and increases strength, while removing internal lipids decreases water permeability.
research Charge density alterations in human hair fibers: an investigation using electrostatic force microscopy
The study found that a polymer treatment changes the charge on hair surfaces, making bleached hair smoother and less porous.
research Transcriptional Governance of Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence and Niche Maintenance in Long-Term Tissue Regeneration
FOXC1 is essential for keeping hair follicle stem cells inactive and maintaining their environment for healthy hair growth.
research The role of hair follicles in the percutaneous absorption of caffeine
Hair follicles significantly increase the speed and amount of caffeine absorbed through the skin.
