research Into the redox control: N-acetyl-cysteine pleiotropic effects from the laboratory to clinical applications
N-acetyl-cysteine shows promise in treating various diseases and may improve skin and hair conditions, but more research is needed on dosages and long-term effects.
research Comparison of N-acetyl cysteine with metformin on clinical profile in anovulatory infertile women with PCOS
N-acetyl cysteine and metformin both improved fertility in women with PCOS equally, but N-acetyl cysteine had fewer side effects.
research TRAIL sensitization of PC3 prostate cancer cells by doxorubicin can be blocked by the anti-oxidant N-acetyl-cysteine or by the iron chelator deferoxamine
Antioxidants can block the cancer-fighting effects of doxorubicin.
research Efficacy and Tolerability of N-Acetyl-Cysteine for Treatment of The Early-onset Androgenetic Alopecia in Men
N-acetyl-cysteine improves hair growth and is safe for treating early male hair loss.
research Study on Extraction of L-cystine from Cattle Hair
research STUDY ON EXTRACTION OF L-CYSTINE BY ACID-HYDROLYSIS OF HAIRS
research Differential Expression of Genes Encoding a Cysteine-Rich Keratin Family in the Hair Cuticle
research 190 Deficiency of the Human Cysteine Protease Inhibitor Cystatin M/E Causes Hypotrichosis and Dry Skin
Not having enough cystatin M/E protein causes less hair growth and dry skin.
research Electron microscopic and autoradiographic study of S35-L-cystine incorporation in mouse hair follicles
Mice hair follicles take in the amino acid cystine.
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 THE INFLUENCE OF ALLOXAN DIABETES, METHYLTHIOURACIL, CORTISONE AND ADRENALINE ON THE UTILIZATION OF GLUCOSE 14C AND L-CYSTINE 35S AND MITOTIC ACTIVITY BY HAIR FOLLICLES IN WHITE MICE
Alloxan diabetes, methylthiouracil, cortisone, and adrenaline affect how white mice hair follicles use glucose and cystine and their cell division.
research ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDIES OF HAIR AND WOOL
Hair and wool have complex microscopic structures with microfibrils and varying cystine content.
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 Structural and Molecular Hair Abnormalities in Trichothiodystrophy
TTD hair brittleness is caused by multiple structural abnormalities.
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 Update on detection, morphology and fragility in pili annulati in three kindreds
Careful light microscopy is crucial for detecting mild cases of pili annulati, which weakens hair and varies widely in expression.
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 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 INHIBITION OF KERATINIZING STRUCTURES BY SYSTEMIC DRUGS
Some drugs can cause hair loss and skin issues.
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 Solubility of Structurally Complicated Materials: 3. Hair
Hair is hard to dissolve because of its complex proteins, but certain solvents that break specific bonds and hydrate can do it.
research The physical and chemical disruption of human hair after bleaching – studies by transmission electron microscopy and redox proteomics
Bleaching hair causes severe structural and chemical damage, including protein loss and oxidation.
research Generalized trichorrhexis nodosa
The hair disorder was caused by abnormal protein formation, making hair easily damaged.
research Polarization Microscopy of Hair in Acrodermatitis Enteropathica
Zinc therapy improved hair health in a girl with acrodermatitis enteropathica.
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 [Trichothiodystrophy: a morphological and biochemical study].
Trichothiodystrophy involves brittle hair due to low sulfur amino acids, not a transport defect.
research Investigation of the damage on the outermost hair surface using ToF‐SIMS and XPS
Bleaching hair causes significant damage by breaking down proteins and fatty acids.
research The Proteins of Normal and Aberrant Hair Keratins
Hair is mostly made of three protein types: helical, high-sulfur, and high-tyrosine.
research Structural changes in trichocyte keratin intermediate filaments during keratinization
Keratin structure changes during keratinization, but the exact model remains uncertain.
