Research
210-240 / 1000+ results research Expression of SPARC (secreted protein acidic rich in cysteine) throughout the hair cycle in rats
SPARC likely aids in tissue remodeling during the hair cycle, not in starting new hair growth phases.
research Evidence of hair loss after subacute exposure to 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide, a mustard analog, and beneficial effects ofN-acetyl cysteine
Mustard gas exposure causes hair loss, but treating with N-acetylcysteine can prevent it.
research Modification of hair dysplasia curve by radioprotectors containg sulfur as a function of the x-ray dose.
Sulfur-containing radioprotectors can protect hair from X-ray damage if given before exposure but worsen damage if given after.
research Enzymatic approach to analyze the effects of mercaptans on hair
Mercaptans make hair more prone to damage, with reduced hair being more affected than permed hair.

research J. Cosmet. Sci., 59, 203-215 (May/June 2008) �Effects of permanent waving on changes of protein and physicomorphological properties in human head hair
Permanent waving damages hair protein and weakens hair, especially with repeated treatments using sodium thioglycolate.
research Human Hair Keratin‐Associated Proteins (KAPs)
Keratin-associated proteins are crucial for hair strength and structure.
research Human hair melanins: what we have learned and have not learned from mouse coat color pigmentation
We know a lot about mouse hair color, but not much about human hair color differences.
research The long and the short of it: evidence that FGF5 is a major determinant of canine ‘hair’‐itability
The FGF5 gene determines hair length in dogs.
research Human Hair Keratin-Associated Proteins
Hair keratin-associated proteins are essential for strong hair, with over 80 genes showing specific patterns and variations among people.
research Mammalian keratin associated proteins (KRTAPs) subgenomes: disentangling hair diversity and adaptation to terrestrial and aquatic environments
Different hair types in mammals are linked to variations in specific protein genes, with changes influenced by their living environments.
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.

Scientists discovered a unique hair protein, KAP24.1, with a special structure, found only in the upper part of hair cuticles.
research Organization and Expression of Hair Follicle Genes.
Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.
research The role of disulfide bond formation in the structural transition observed in the intermediate filaments of developing hair
Disulfide bonds are crucial for hair structure during keratinization.
research Proteomic tools for the investigation of human hair structural proteins and evidence of weakness sites on hair keratin coil segments
Hair proteins have weak spots in their α-helical segments.
research Protein and sulphur amino acid nutrition of hair fibre-producing Angora and Cashmere goats
Giving high-quality protein or methionine supplements helps improve hair growth in Angora goats and, to a lesser extent, in Cashmere goats.
research Distribution and Localization of Hydrophobic and Ionic Chemical Groups at the Surface of Bleached Human Hair Fibers
Bleaching hair removes its protective top layer and exposes more hydrophilic groups, changing its chemical surface and affecting how it interacts with products.
research Characterization of the exocuticle a‐layer proteins of wool
The outer layer of Merino wool is rich in sulfur proteins, making it resistant to damage.
research Structural changes in the trichocyte intermediate filaments accompanying the transition from the reduced to the oxidized form
Oxidation changes the structure of hair protein filaments, causing them to compact and rearrange.
