research A discourse on human hair fibers and reflections on the conservation of drug molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
research Trichothiodystrophy: an ultrastructural study of the hair follicle
Trichothiodystrophy causes abnormal protein deposits and distortion in hair follicles.
research An ultrastuctural study of hair fiber damage and restoration following treatment with permanent hair dye
Permanent hair dye damages hair but it mostly recovers after 8 weeks; using certain hair care products can help repair it.
research An Electron Microscopy Study of Keratin Degradation by the Fungus Microsporum gypseum in vitro
Microsporum gypseum fungus breaks down keratin in hair by digesting it enzymatically, starting with less keratinized parts.
research Transglutaminase-3 Enzyme: A Putative Actor in Human Hair Shaft Scaffolding?
TGase 3 helps build hair structure by forming strong bonds between proteins.
research Integral Lipid in Human Hair Follicle
The lipid in human hair follicles acts as a barrier, similar to the skin's lipid layer.
research Formation of surface membranes in developing mammalian hair fibres
Mature hair surfaces are formed by keratinized cells with developed layers, not just modified plasma membranes.
research Morphological changes in human head hair subjected to various drug testing decontamination strategies
Different hair cleaning methods caused varying levels of damage to the hair's outer layer.
research Some electron microscope observations on hardening in the human hair follicle
The hair follicle structure is more complex than thought, with new findings on protein formation.
research UV damage of the hair.
Excessive sun exposure damages hair, causing protein loss and color changes.
research Human pollution exposure correlates with accelerated ultrastructural degradation of hair fibers
Pollution exposure speeds up hair damage.
research Progress report on hair keratin research
Advancements in hair keratin research could lead to better hair health 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 Photoinduced formation of thiols in human hair
UV exposure damages hair, increasing thiols and altering protein structure.
research Pseudopili Annulati in a Dark‐Haired Individual: A Light and Electron Microscopic Study
A dark-haired Chinese girl had hair that looked banded under certain light but was normal under a microscope.
