research Histocompatibility and Long-Term Results of the Follicular Unit-Like Wigs after Xenogeneic Hair Transplantation: An Experimental Study in Rabbits
The wigs made from human hair and polypropylene were mostly well-tolerated and durable in rabbits, suggesting they could be a new option for people with extensive hair loss.
research Fibrous scaffolds potentiate the paracrine function of mesenchymal stem cells: A new dimension in cell-material interaction
Special fiber materials boost the healing properties of certain stem cells.
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 Neural, adipocyte and hepatic differentiation potential of primary and secondary hair follicle stem cells isolated from Arbas Cashmere goats
Hair follicle stem cells from Arbas Cashmere goats can become fat, nerve, and liver cells.
research Fractography of human hair
Moisture content significantly affects how human hair breaks.
research Keratin Gene Expression in Wool Fibre Development
Only two of the four keratin genes are expressed in wool fibers.
research Progress in Pluronic F127 Derivatives for Application in Wound Healing and Repair
Pluronic F127-derived hydrogels show promise for effective wound healing and repair.
research Effects Of Keratin-Gelatin And Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor-Gelatin Composite Film On Open Wound Healing In Dogs And Cats
Keratin-gelatin film improves wound healing in pets better than bFGF-gelatin.
research The Secrets of Beautiful Hair: Why is it Flexible and Elastic?
Beautiful hair is flexible and elastic due to its unique double-layered structure and can be enhanced with succinic acid treatment.
research Recognizing polycystic ovary syndrome in the primary care setting
Doctors should recognize and treat PCOS early in primary care to manage symptoms and lower risk of other health issues.
research [Proteomics-based screening of differentially expressed proteins in skin of Chinese merino fine sheep (JunKen type) of different gender].
Gender affects wool traits in sheep, with males and females showing differences in skin proteins related to wool growth.
research Effect of varied hair protein fractions on the gel properties of keratin/chitosan hydrogels for the use in tissue engineering
Different hair protein amounts change the strength of keratin/chitosan gels, useful for making predictable tissue engineering materials.
research Strength and Tenderness: Fibronectin Joins Hair Follicle Stem Cell Niche
Fibronectin is essential for hair follicle regeneration and may help rejuvenate aged skin.
research Acid phosphatase distribution in the wool follicle. III. Fate of organelles in keratinized cells
Keratinized wool cells still have some organelles like lysosomes and mitochondria.
research Rational Design and Functionalization of Melt Electrowritten 4D Scaffolds for Biomedical Applications
4D scaffolds made with melt electrowriting can change shape for use in medicine.
research Polymorphism of Keratin Gene KRT71 and Its Relationship with Wool Properties in Gansu Alpine Fine-Wool Sheep
The GG genotype of the KRT71 gene leads to longer wool in Gansu alpine fine-wool sheep.
research Discovery of a sol–gel reinforcing the strength of hair structure: mechanisms of action and macroscopic effects on the hair
A small molecule can strengthen fine hair, making it more resistant and natural-feeling.
research Bio-macromolecules/modified-halloysite composite hydrogel used as multi-functional wound dressing
The new hydrogel is good for wound dressing because it absorbs water quickly, has high porosity, can release drugs, fights bacteria, and helps wounds heal with less scarring.
research Ultrastructural visualization of cross-linked protein features in epidermal appendages
Cross-linked proteins help maintain the structure of hair, feathers, and hagfish teeth.
research The Interaction of Hair Fibers with Alkali Bromide Solutions
Hair absorbs alkali bromide salts and water, affecting its structure, with absorption decreasing at higher temperatures.
research An injectable fibronectin3-alginate hydrogel driven by dynamic dissolving equilibrium for irregular wound repair
The FN3-Alg hydrogel effectively heals irregular wounds and promotes hair growth.
research Comparative Study of Mechanical and Microstructural Properties of Interlocking Concrete Blocks Reinforced with Chicken Feather Fiber and blend of Chicken Feather Fiber/Synthetic Hair Fibers
research Self-consistent field theory for the interactions between keratin intermediate filaments
Keratin filaments' elasticity is influenced by their terminal domains and surrounding medium.
research Preparation of human hair keratin/calcium alginate blend films
More human hair protein makes the films weaker and less clear.
research In situ tensile deformation characterization of human hair with atomic force microscopy
AFM helped show how hair changes under tension and the effects of damage and conditioner.
research Scanning Electron Microscopic Study on Collagen Fibrils in the Mink Dermis during the Hair Cycle and Growth
Collagen fibrils in mink skin change structure during hair growth, becoming looser and thicker in the active phase.
research The Localization of Dehydrogenase Activity and Sulphydryl Groups in Wool and Hair Follicles by the use of Tetrazolium Salts
INT effectively shows enzyme activity and protein groups in wool and hair follicles.
research Tri-layer gradient fibre-aligned electrospun composite: Accelerating skin wound healing
The dressing speeds up wound healing by mimicking skin's natural properties.
