30 / 1000+ resultsresearch The Enzymic Derivation of Citrulline Residues from Arginine Residues In Situ during the Biosynthesis of Hair Proteins that are Cross-Linked by Isopeptide Bonds
Hair follicles have an enzyme that converts arginine to citrulline in proteins.
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 Intermolecular disulfide cross-linked structural change induced by permanent wave treatment of human hair with thioglycolic acid.
Permanent wave treatment with thioglycolic acid changes hair structure by altering disulfide bonds.
research Mechanism of Hair Curling via Laccase-Assisted Tyrosine Grafting Using BSA as a Model Protein
A gentler, less damaging method for curling hair using tyrosine works well initially but fades after washing.
research Embryonic keratinization in vertebrates in relation to land colonization
Keratinization in embryos helped vertebrates adapt to land by forming a protective skin barrier.
research Multiscale modelling of human hair
Human hair becomes weaker and stretches more easily at higher temperatures.
research Association Between Chlamydia trachomatis and Helicobacter pylori with Inflammation in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Cross-Sectional Study
PCOS is linked to chronic low-grade inflammation, but the role of certain infections is unclear.
research Cross-linked features of mouse pelage hair resistant to detergent extraction
Some mutant mice have hair with abnormal cross-linking, mainly in the cuticle, not affecting other hair parts.
research Cross‐linked features of mouse pelage hair resistant to detergent extraction
Two mouse mutants have defective hair cuticle cross-linking.

research Pathway enrichment and network analysis of differentially expressed genes in pashmina goat
The analysis found genes linked to skin and hair development are more active in Pashmina goats, which may explain their long-fiber production.
research Reproduction Mechanism of SS Cross-Links in Permed Hair by the Washing after Reduction with Thioglycolic Acid
Washing permed hair after using thioglycolic acid helps reform strong bonds, making hair stronger.
research Mechanism of Laccase-assisted Tyrosine Grafting on Keratin using BSA as a Model Protein
New hair perming method using tyrosine is gentler and can be done with a blow-dryer.
research The Association Between Low Grade Systemic Inflammation and Skin Diseases: A Cross-sectional Survey in the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966
Adults with certain skin conditions may have higher levels of inflammation in their body.
research Associations between transition‐specific stress experience, nocturnal decline in ambulatory blood pressure, and C‐reactive protein levels among transgender men
Stress from being transgender is linked to higher blood pressure at night and more inflammation, which may affect heart health.
research Gender difference in the relationship between the ferritin and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance in non-diabetic Korean adults
Iron levels are linked to insulin resistance in men and postmenopausal women, but not in premenopausal women.
