Research
120-150 / 1000+ resultsresearch μ-Crystallin, Thyroid Hormone-binding Protein, is Expressed Abundantly in the Murine Inner Root Sheath Cells
μ-Crystallin may help hair growth by affecting thyroid hormone levels in mouse hair follicles.
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 Influence of Oxidative and/or Reductive Treatment on Human Hair (I): Analysis of Hair-Damage after Oxidative and/or Reductive Treatment
Chemical treatments and daily stresses damage hair, especially the cuticle layer.
research Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy Analysis of Human Hair Fiber Structure
Human hair has different protein structures in its cuticle and cortex.
research A STUDY OF THE DIFFERENTIATION PRODUCTS OF THE HAIR FOLLICLE CELLS WITH THE ELECTRON MICROSCOPE.
Hair follicle cells become four types: medulla, cortex, cuticle, and inner root sheath.
research Distribution of Glycolipid and Unsaturated Fatty Acids in Human Hair
Human hair has more unsaturated fats inside than on the surface, and certain lipids may help bind the outer and inner layers together.
research Morphology and ultrastructure of antler velvet hair and body hair from red deer (Cervus elaphus)
Antler velvet hair and body hair of red deer have different structures that help with protection and insulation.
research Photoageing of Hair Fiber and Photoprotection
Sunlight damages hair, causing cuticle loss, protein changes, and discoloration.
research Hair Morphology in Androgenetic Alopecia
Abnormal cuticle and hair shaft medulla cause hair loss in androgenetic alopecia; sonography helps diagnose and manage it.
research Perspectives on Hair Evolution Based on Some Comparative Studies on Vertebrate Cornification
Hair in mammals likely evolved from glandular structures, not scales.
research Investigation of hair shaft in seborrheic dermatitis using atomic force microscopy
Hair from people with seborrheic dermatitis is thicker scaled, more damaged, and thinner than healthy hair, and atomic force microscopy can help monitor the condition.
research Discrete Nanoscale Distribution of Hair Lipids Fails to Provide Humidity Resistance
Hair lipids do not protect against humidity.
research The cell membrane complex: Three related but different cellular cohesion components of mammalian hair fibers
The cell membrane complex in mammalian hair has three distinct types with different structures and chemical properties.
research Extractable substances from human hair: a discussion about the origin of the holes
Holes in mature hair are likely caused by the removal of substances during hair care.
research Histochemical observation of the cell membrane complex of hair.
The Cell Membrane Complex in hair has both water-attracting and water-repelling layers.
research Chemical and physical treatments damage Caucasian and Afro‐ethnic hair fibre: analytical and image assays
Chemical and physical treatments like bleaching, dyeing, and UV radiation damage both Caucasian and Afro-ethnic hair.
research An ultrastructural study on corkscrew hairs and cigarette‐ash‐shaped hairs observed by dermoscopy of tinea capitis
Corkscrew and cigarette-ash-shaped hairs in tinea capitis are caused by internal hair degradation and external resistance.
research Progenitor‐cell‐enriched micrografts as a novel option for the management of androgenetic alopecia
Micrografts promote hair growth in androgenetic alopecia treatment.
research Three‐dimensional imaging and analysis of the surface of hair fibres using scanning electron microscopy
The new 3D imaging method accurately measures hair surface details quickly.
research Heat‐damaged evaluation of virgin hair
Heat damages hair, with Asian hair losing more protein than Caucasian hair.
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 The structural implications of water hardness metal uptake by human hair
Human hair absorbs calcium and magnesium from tap water, affecting its structure and styling properties.
research Copper and calcium uptake in colored hair
Hair coloring increases copper and calcium uptake, damaging hair and reducing shine.
research Lipid loses and barrier function modifications of the brown‐to‐white hair transition
White hair has less lipid content and absorbs water differently than brown hair.
research Hair Mechanical Properties Depending On Age And Origin
Hair properties vary with age and ethnic origin.
research Pattern of expression of c-Myc, Max and Bin1 in human anagen hair follicles
c-Myc, Max, and Bin1 help hair follicle cells mature and die.
research Qualitative investigation of fresh human scalp hair with full-field optical coherence tomography
Melanin density affects hair color, and this method can help in cosmetic assessments and diagnosing hair diseases.
research Physical Properties of Human Hair. 1. Evaluation of Bending Stress by Measuring the Major and the Minor Axis of Human Hair.
The cuticle significantly contributes to hair stiffness, making up about 60% of the total bending stress.
research Elucidating penetration pathways into the hair fiber using novel microscopic techniques.
The conclusion is that substances can penetrate hair fibers through multiple pathways, including both the cell membrane complex and the non-keratinous parts.
