research From a stem-cell–centered to a niche-centered view: the core role of collagen networks in hair loss and hair follicle miniaturization
Collagen networks play a key role in hair loss and follicle miniaturization.
research Histomorphometric study of hair follicle of Assam Hill goat during preruminant, transitional and ruminant age groups
Ruminant goats have larger and more defined hair follicles than younger goats.
research Structural change of keratin protein in human hair by permanent waving treatment
Permanent waving damages hair by disrupting its keratin structure.
research Ceramide binding to African–American hair fibre correlates with resistance to hair breakage
Ceramide helps protect African–American hair from breakage.
research Ageing processes influence keratin and KAP expression in human hair follicles
Aging causes changes in hair follicles, leading to weaker hair growth.
research Tryptophan in human hair: correlation with pigmentation
Men have more tryptophan in their hair than women, and it increases with age and is higher in darker and grey or white hair.
research The location of the thioglycolic acid molecules in intrafibrillar unordered areas of the human hair keratin structure
