570-600 / 1000+ resultsresearch Determinants of hair cortisol and hair cortisone concentrations in adults
Hair cortisol and cortisone levels increase with age, are higher in diabetics, vary by gender, decrease with frequent hair washing, and are lower in winter.
research Structural investigation on damaged hair keratin treated with α,β-unsaturated Michael acceptors used as repairing agents
Treatments improved hair surface and scale structure but didn't increase certain bonds in the hair cortex.
research Photoageing of Hair Fiber and Photoprotection
Sunlight damages hair, causing cuticle loss, protein changes, and discoloration.
research Twist1 Contributes to the Maintenance of Some Biological Properties of Dermal Papilla Cells in vitro by Forming a Complex With Tcf4 and β-Catenin
Twist1 helps maintain important features of cells crucial for hair growth by working with Tcf4 and β-catenin.
research Mutations in Three Genes Encoding Proteins Involved in Hair Shaft Formation Cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome
Mutations in three genes cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome, leading to frizzy hair that can't be combed flat.
research Analyzing the laser-light reflection from human hair fibers Part1: Light components underlying the goniophotometric curves and fiber cuticle angles
Hair color affects light reflection, with black hair having higher cuticle angles and lighter hair showing less specular reflection.
research Let’s not split hairs
A new method strengthens hair without using harmful chemicals.
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 Association of cicatricial alopecia with chemical hair straightening
Chemical hair straightening may be linked to a type of permanent hair loss.
research Autosomal recessive woolly hair syndrome: a series of eight patients in an Indian population
Autosomal recessive woolly hair is rare and involves tightly coiled hair without other health issues.
research A cross sectional study on geriatric dermatosis in patients attending a tertiary care hospital
Wrinkles, dry skin, and hair changes are common in elderly skin, while infections and eczema are also prevalent.
research A systematic review on the lipid composition of human hair
Lipids are crucial for healthy hair, protecting it from damage and breakage.
research Hair shaft structures in EDAR induced ectodermal dysplasia
The EDAR gene mutation leads to thinner and more deformed hair shafts.
research Biology of hair pigmentation and its role in premature canities
Early hair graying is often inherited and influenced by genetics, environment, and lifestyle, but treatment options are limited.
research Scanning Electron Microscopic Study on Collagen Fibrils in the Mink Dermis during the Hair Cycle and Growth
Collagen fibrils in mink skin change structure during hair growth, becoming looser and thicker in the active phase.
research iε-(γ-Glutamyl) lysine cross-linkage in citrulline-containing protein fractions from hair
Specific cross-linkages help make hair proteins stable and strong.
