30 / 1000+ resultsresearch Changes in the Molecular Structure of Hair in Insulin-Dependent Diabetes
Insulin-dependent diabetes alters hair's molecular structure, making it useful for studying diabetes effects.
research Lateral interactions account for the pattern of the hair cell array in the chick basilar papilla
Lateral interactions guide hair cell patterning in chick basilar papilla.
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 Nucleation and growth of macrofibrils in trichocyte (hard-α) keratins
Sheet formation is key to macrofibril structure differences in wool.
research Exploring the effects of wetting and free fatty acid deposition on an atomistic hair fiber surface model incorporating Keratin Associated Protein 5-1
Water and fatty acids affect hair's surface differently based on hair damage, and models can help understand hair-cosmetic interactions.
research Hair follicle differentiation and regulation.
Hair follicle growth and development are controlled by specific genes and molecular signals.
research Photochemotherapy and Alopecia Areata
Some people with severe hair loss saw hair regrowth after a specific light and drug treatment.
research Green Fabrication of ZnO Nanoparticles from Tridax procumbens leaf extract: Antimicrobial and Cytotoxic Evaluation on MCF7 and A549 Cells
Zinc oxide nanoparticles made from Tridax procumbens leaves show strong antibacterial and anticancer effects.
research Scratching the surface of skin development
The document concludes that skin stem cells are important for hair growth and wound healing, and could be used in regenerative medicine.
research More than one way to skin . . .
Skin stem cells help repair damage and maintain healthy skin.
research Penetration of drugs through skin, a complex rate-controlling membrane
The skin is a complex barrier for drug penetration, but understanding its structure and interactions can improve drug delivery methods.
research ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDIES OF HAIR AND WOOL
Hair and wool have complex microscopic structures with microfibrils and varying cystine content.
research The structure of the “amorphous” matrix of keratins
Human hair keratin fibers have a detailed nano-scale structure that changes with different conditions.
research Morphology and ultrastructure of antler velvet hair and body hair from red deer (Cervus elaphus)
Antler velvet hair and body hair of red deer have different structures that help with protection and insulation.
research Porosity at Different Structural Levels in Human and Yak Belly Hair and Its Effect on Hair Dyeing
Yak belly hair has higher porosity and is less stiff than human hair, making it absorb dye better but less suitable as a direct substitute for hair dyeing.
research An Investigation of Hair and its Keratin Associated Proteins using Advanced Light Microscopy
Advanced microscopy shows hair damage and keratin proteins' roles, aiding future cosmetic treatments.
research Alginate and its application to tissue engineering
Alginate is great for tissue engineering because it's safe, easy to use, and helps heal tissues.
research Transdermal Permeation of Drugs in Various Animal Species
Pig skin is a good substitute for human skin to measure drug absorption, but differences in skin structure and enzymes across species must be considered.
research 4D polycarbonates via stereolithography as scaffolds for soft tissue repair
4D polycarbonate scaffolds show promise for soft tissue repair due to their biocompatibility, shape memory, and minimal immune response.
research Organization and Expression of Hair Follicle Genes.
Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.
research Keratin network modifications lead to the mechanical stiffening of the hair follicle fiber
Changes in keratin make hair follicles stiffer.
research Keratin formation in the hair follicle
Keratin fibrils in hair form and stop growing at specific points in the follicle.
research Local structure of human hair spatially resolved by sub-micron X-ray beam
Human hair has a new region with ordered filaments and the cuticle contains β-keratin sheets.
research Exogenous and endogenous lipids of human hair
Removing external lipids from hair reduces moisture and increases strength, while removing internal lipids decreases water permeability.
research Formulation of Sodium Valproate Nanospanlastics as a Promising Approach for Drug Repurposing in the Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia
Sodium Valproate nanospanlastics could be a safe and effective treatment for Androgenic Alopecia, with fewer side effects than minoxidil.
research Understanding Microemulsions and Nanoemulsions in (Trans)Dermal Delivery
Microemulsions and nanoemulsions can effectively deliver drugs through the skin, but more research is needed to understand their differences and mechanisms.
research Nanocarrier Systems for Transdermal Drug Delivery
Nanocarriers could improve how drugs are delivered through the skin but require more research to overcome challenges and ensure safety.
research Lipid loses and barrier function modifications of the brown‐to‐white hair transition
White hair has less lipid content and absorbs water differently than brown hair.
