research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.
research Crystalline Cataract and Uncombable Hair
The study found no common cause for a girl's crystalline cataract and uncombable hair, suggesting their co-occurrence might be coincidental.
research Eyelash trichomegaly: review of congenital, acquired, and drug‐associated etiologies for elongation of the eyelashes
The document concludes that eyelash trichomegaly, which is the abnormal growth of eyelashes, can be present from birth, caused by diseases, or result from certain medications.
research Wnt1a maintains characteristics of dermal papilla cells that induce mouse hair regeneration in a 3D preculture system
Wnt1a helps keep cells that can grow hair effective for potential hair loss treatments.
research Regulation of Hair Shedding by the Type 3 IP3 Receptor
The type 3 IP3 receptor is important for controlling hair loss and growth.
research Notoedric mange in free‐ranging masked palm civets (Paguma larvata) in Japan
Some masked palm civets in Japan have a skin disease caused by mites.
research Chemoprevention of doxorubicin-induced alopecia in mice by dietary administration of l-cystine and vitamin B6
L-cystine and vitamin B6 at high doses prevented hair loss in mice treated with a chemotherapy drug.
research Exogenous Factors in Hair Disorders
Outside factors like grooming, chemicals, and the environment can damage hair and cause disorders.
research Structural changes of hair shaft after application of chemical hair straighteners: Clinical and histopathological study
Chemical hair straightening improves smoothness and shine but may cause side effects, suggesting a need for safer methods.
research Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds—Revisiting the cause of a well-known disease
Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds is caused by structural defects in hair shafts due to downregulated genes and proteins.
research Cysteine and Glutamine level in hair shaft fractures patients
Cysteine strengthens hair, and glutamine fuels hair growth.
research Hair loss in infancy and childhood
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and management of hair loss in children require a detailed examination and understanding of various hair disorders.
research Fractography of human hair
Moisture content significantly affects how human hair breaks.
research What Ages Hair?
Hair aging and loss are caused by genetics, hormones, environment, and grooming, with treatments like minoxidil effective for certain types of hair loss.
research Proteins as Hair Styling Agents
Proteins like BSA and keratin can effectively style hair and protect it, offering eco-friendly alternatives to chemical products.
research Specific interpretation of hair concentrations in 2 fatal metformin intoxication cases
Hair analysis showed very high metformin levels in two fatal overdose cases, suggesting it's useful in forensics but sweat may affect results.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.
research Group IID, IIE, IIF and III secreted phospholipase A2s
Different sPLA2 enzymes affect immunity, skin and hair health, reproduction, and may be potential targets for therapy.
research Comparative Proteomics Indicates That Biosynthesis of Pectic Precursors Is Important for Cotton Fiber and Arabidopsis Root Hair Elongation
Pectin biosynthesis is essential for the growth of cotton fibers and Arabidopsis root hairs.
research Light scattering from human hair fibers
Researchers developed a new model for more realistic computer graphics rendering of hair by considering how light scatters on hair fibers.
research Mechanical and biological properties of keratose biomaterials
Keratose, derived from human hair, is a non-toxic biomaterial good for tissue regeneration and integrates well with body tissues.
research Comparative Transcriptome Analysis of Fetal Skin Reveals Key Genes Related to Hair Follicle Morphogenesis in Cashmere Goats
Key genes and pathways crucial for hair follicle development in cashmere goats were identified, aiding fleece production improvement.
research Aging of hair
Hair ages due to genetics and environmental factors, leading to graying and thinning, with treatments available for some conditions.
research Genetic Ablation of the CDP/Cux Protein C Terminus Results in Hair Cycle Defects and Reduced Male Fertility
Mutant CDP/Cux protein causes hair defects and reduced male fertility in mice.
research Light scattering from human hair fibers
Researchers developed a new model for more realistic computer graphics of hair by considering how light scatters on hair fibers.
research Dermatoscopy of hair shaft disorders
Dermatoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing hair disorders and can help choose samples for more detailed analysis.
research Hair Keratin Associated Proteins: Characterization of a Second High Sulfur KAP Gene Domain on Human Chromosome 2111In fond memory of Dr Peter Steinert.
A second domain of high sulfur KAP genes on chromosome 21q23 is crucial for hair structure.
research HAIR AND SYSTEMATIC DISEASE
Hair loss can indicate underlying systemic diseases and addressing these can sometimes reverse the hair loss.
research Hair and scalp disorders in ethnic populations
