research Trichothiodystrophy hair shafts display distinct ultrastructural features
Trichothiodystrophy hair is structurally abnormal with protein and organization issues.
research Evolution of Trichocyte Keratins
Hair keratins evolved from ancient proteins, diversifying through gene changes, crucial for forming claws and later hair in mammals.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Expression of novel keratin associated protein 5 genes in the cuticle layer of human hair follicles
The study found nine new hair protein genes in human hair follicles.
research Internal structural changes in age‐related curved hair due to cyclical extension: An IR spectroscopy study
Age-related hair curvature increases due to internal structural changes from grooming.
research A Raman spectroscopy investigation of the resilience of hair cuticular scales under uniaxial stress
Hair cuticles remain stable and resilient under stress due to strong protein content and crosslinking.
research A Raman spectroscopic investigation of the mechanism of the reduction in hair with thioglycerol and the accompanying disulphide conformational changes
Thioglycerol treatment at pH 9.0 with ammonia causes less hair damage and better waving than thioglycolic acid.
research A detailed mapping of the readily accessible disulphide bonds in the cortex of wool fibres
Researchers found that the most reachable bonds in wool fibers are near the ends of certain proteins, which help stabilize the fiber's structure.
research Crosslinking structure of keratin. V. Number and type of crosslinks in microstructures of untreated and potassium cyanide treated human hair
Potassium cyanide treatment changes hair's disulfide bonds, making it more elastic.
research Crosslinking structure of keratin. V. Number and type of crosslinks in microstructures of untreated and potassium cyanide treated human hair
Potassium cyanide changes hair's disulfide bonds to monosulfide, affecting high-sulfur proteins more.
research Intramembrane Proteolysis of Astrotactins
Astrotactin-2 is cleaved in a specific way that helps understand its maturation.
research Cleave but not leave: Astrotactin proteins in development and disease
Astrotactin proteins are important for brain and skin development and are linked to several neurodevelopmental disorders.
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 Changing the shape of hair with keratin peptides
Keratin peptides can change hair shape gently without harsh chemicals.
research Molecular modeling and structural characterization of a high glycine–tyrosine hair keratin associated protein
The 3D structure of a key hair protein was modeled, revealing specific helical structures and stabilization features.
research Chapter 4 Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
research Structural optimization of pep7, a small peptide extracted from epimorphin, for effective induction of hair follicle anagen
Modified pep7, named EPM peptide, effectively promotes hair growth at low concentrations and works well with minoxidil.
research Homo- and heteropolymer self-assembly of recombinant trichocytic keratins
Recombinant keratins can form useful structures for medical applications, overcoming natural keratin limitations.
research A SHORT COMMUNICATION ON FORMULATION AND EVALUATION OF DEPILATORIES
Depilatories use chemicals to weaken hair for easy removal.
research The Influence of Electrode Potentials on the Extent of Reduction of Cystine in Hair Fibers by Reducing Agents
The effectiveness of reducing agents on hair fibers depends on their electrode potentials.
research Water-Soluble Polymers in Hair Care
Alkaline hair relaxers damage hair, but cationic and non-ionic polymers can help reduce this damage.
research Temporary Chemical Depilation
Chemical hair removal can cause skin irritation and other issues, but natural alternatives are being explored.
research Structure and Mechanical Properties of Human Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filament Protein
