research Rapid Formation of Cell Aggregates and Spheroids Induced by a “Smart” Boronic Acid Copolymer
A boronic acid copolymer quickly forms cell clusters, useful for tissue and tumor modeling.
research Order from disorder: Self-organization in mammalian hair patterning
Hair patterns in mice are controlled by both a global system dependent on Fz6 and a local self-organizing system.
research ‘Hard’ and ‘soft’ principles defining the structure, function and regulation of keratin intermediate filaments
Keratin filaments are crucial for cell structure and protection, with ongoing discoveries about their genes and functions.
research Organ function is preserved despite reorganization of niche architecture in the hair follicle
research Three-dimensional ultrastructural analysis of human skin with the arrector pili muscle interacting with the hair follicle epithelium
The method effectively analyzes skin tissue changes, especially in the arrector pili muscle and nerve fibers with hair follicles.
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.
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 Morphological analyses in fragility of pili torti with Björnstad syndrome
Pili torti hair is fragile due to loose keratin filaments and weak disulfide bonds.
research Three-dimensional modelling of interchain sequence similarities and differences in the coiled-coil segments of keratin intermediate filament heterodimers highlight features important in assembly
Keratin heterodimers are preferred for their specific and structural advantages.
research Protein chains in hair and epidermal keratin IF: Structural features and spatial arrangements
research Three-dimensional architecture and linearized mapping of vibrissa follicle afferents
Large-scale reconstructions enhance understanding of vibrissal sensory mapping in the brain.
research Wool fiber curvature is correlated with abundance of K38 and specific keratin‐associated proteins
Wool fiber curliness is linked to the presence of certain proteins and K38.
research Fractal geometry and topology abstracted from hair fibers
Hair fibers have fractal patterns with properties related to the golden mean, which may affect their functionality.
research Enter the Matrix: Fibroblast-immune cell interactions shape extracellular matrix deposition in health and disease.
Fibroblast and immune cell interactions affect tissue repair and fibrosis.
research Fibrosing Alopecia in a Pattern Distribution
Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution is a type of hair loss that may often be overlooked, especially in men.

The technique effectively shows how human skin and hair cells form into ball-like structures.
research Chapter 4 Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
research Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution
Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution is a hair loss condition often confused with other types, requiring early treatment but usually not resulting in significant hair regrowth.
research FEMALE CADAVER IN THE HAN TOMB NO. 1 X-RAY DIFFRACTION STUDIES ON TWO KINDS OF FIBROUS PROTEIN
The protein structures in the hair and tendon were preserved, but their molecular arrangements changed.
research Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution
Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution is a unique hair loss condition that may respond to antiandrogen therapy.
research Shaping Up Mitochondrion in Motion
Mitochondria change shape to meet energy needs during cell movement.
research Human hair keratin network and curvature
Curly hair shape is due to uneven growth patterns in the hair follicle.
research Exploring a biological tissue from atomic to macroscopic scale using synchrotron radiation: example of hair.
