870-900 / 1000+ results 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 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 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 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 Protective effect of conditioning agents on Afro‐ethnic hair chemically treated with thioglycolate‐based straightening emulsion
Conditioning agents, especially jojoba oil and lauryl PEG/PPG-18/18 methicone, protect and strengthen chemically straightened Afro-ethnic hair.
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.
research In utero Diagnosis of Trichothiodystrophy by Endoscopically-Guided Fetal Eyebrow Biopsy
Prenatal diagnosis of trichothiodystrophy is possible in the second trimester using fetal eyebrow biopsy, with sulfur content analysis being more reliable.
research Permanent waving and hair straightening
Thioglycolate lotions are the most popular method for permanent waving and hair straightening.
research Hair as an Index of Protein Malnutrition
Hair cystine levels may indicate protein malnutrition, but more research is needed.
research Photoageing of Hair Fiber and Photoprotection
Sunlight damages hair, causing cuticle loss, protein changes, and discoloration.
research African hair morphology: macrostructure to ultrastructure
African hair is more fragile due to its unique shape and internal structure.
research CERTAIN PHASES OF SULFUR METABOLISM OF THE SKIN
Cystine is crucial for forming keratin in hair, wool, and nails.
research Nutrition of women with hair loss problem during the period of menopause
Eating a balanced diet with specific nutrients is important for menopausal women to manage hair loss.
research The effect of dietary modulation of sulfur amino acids on cystathionine β synthase–deficient mice
Changing the diet of mice lacking the enzyme CBS can affect symptoms related to the genetic condition.
research Copper and calcium uptake in colored hair
Hair coloring increases copper and calcium uptake, damaging hair and reducing shine.
research Incorporation of Selenium-75 into Dog Hair
Selenium-75 stays in dog hair for up to 316 days.
research Mechanism of hair straightening
Hair can be straightened using different chemicals, not just strong alkali.
research Arginosuccinicaciduria
The girl had a rare disorder causing mental and physical symptoms, with weak hair and unclear neurological issues.
research Alopecia in Rats Fed Certain Soybean Oil Meal Rations.
Rats fed soybean oil meal lost hair, but adding inositol, biotin, cystine, or methionine to their diet prevented this and improved growth.
research Characterization of tiger tail banding and hair shaft abnormalities in trichothiodystrophy
Tiger tail banding and hair abnormalities are reliable indicators for diagnosing trichothiodystrophy.
research In vitro methodology, hormonal and nutritional effects and fibre production in isolated ovine and caprine anagen hair follicles
Angora goat hair grows faster and produces more protein than cashmere goat hair, and certain hormones and nutrients positively affect hair growth and protein synthesis.
