240-270 / 1000+ results research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin is essential for protection, temperature control, and immune defense.
research An Electron Microscopy Study of Keratin Degradation by the Fungus Microsporum gypseum in vitro
Microsporum gypseum fungus breaks down keratin in hair by digesting it enzymatically, starting with less keratinized parts.
research Hair structure anatomy and comparative anatomy1 1Dedicated to the memory of the late Dr. R. E. Rivett whose untimely death prevented his role in co-authorship.
Human hair is complex and grows in cycles starting from embryonic life.
research Characterization of the exocuticle a‐layer proteins of wool
The outer layer of Merino wool is rich in sulfur proteins, making it resistant to damage.
research Inhibitory effect of tianeptine on catagen induction in alopecia areata-like lesions induced by ultrasonic wave stress in mice
Tianeptine, an antidepressant, may prevent stress-induced hair loss in mice.
research Influence of urea on the coloring ability of a low‐temperature coloring method of keratin fibers using polyethyleneimine
Urea helps hair dye penetrate better and last longer.
research MOLECULAR AND CELLULAR BASIS OF EXOGEN AND ANAGEN INDUCTION
Hair growth and shedding involve specific cell changes and gene roles.
research Analysis of heterogeneous reaction between reducing agents and keratin fibers using Raman spectroscopy and microspectrophotometry
The study found that thioglycolic acid breaks down hair bonds more consistently than l-cysteine, which is less damaging to hair.
research ROS-Eliminating Carboxymethyl Chitosan Hydrogel to Enhance Burn Wound-Healing Efficacy
The hydrogel speeds up burn wound healing and promotes tissue regeneration.
research Lanceolate Hair (lah): A Recessive Mouse Mutation with Alopecia and Abnormal Hair
Mice with the 'lanceolate hair' mutation have abnormal hair and skin similar to human Netherton's syndrome.
research Mechanically Robust MXene‐Metal Polyphenol Network Hybrid Interfaces for Multifunctional Protection of Keratin Fibers
The new coating protects and strengthens hair while improving its properties.
research Immunogenicity of Hair Proteins Containing Hard Keratins.
Human hair and nail proteins are unlikely to cause allergic reactions.
research Properties of Partially Extracted Hairs and their Degradability by Proteases
Mf-rich hair degrades more than Ma-rich hair, especially with Proteinase K.
research Adhesion Failure of External Hair Cuticles Caused by Prussian Blue: Possible Electrochemical Roles of Sulfur and Cystine
Prussian Blue causes hair cuticles to detach, weakening the hair.
research The presence of glycoproteins in the cell membrane complex of a variety of keratin fibres
Glycoproteins are present in the cell membranes of various keratin fibers.
research The proteomics of wool follicles
Proteomics helps understand protein changes in wool fiber development.
research Hair follicles and their role in skin health
Hair follicles are essential for skin health, aiding in hair growth, wound healing, and immune function.
research Reactive keratin derivatives: A promising strategy for covalent binding to hair
Modified keratin binds better to hair, especially bleached hair.

The harlequin ichthyosis mouse mutation causes thick skin and early death, resembling a human skin disorder.
research Annotation of sheep keratin intermediate filament genes and their patterns of expression
Sheep have 17 keratin genes, similar to humans, but with different expression patterns affecting wool and hair.
research Formaldehyde replacement with glyoxylic acid in semipermanent hair straightening: a new and multidisciplinary investigation
Glyoxylic acid is a safer alternative to formaldehyde for hair straightening and effectively changes hair structure.
research Ancient lineages of the keratin-associated protein (KRTAP) genes and their co-option in the evolution of the hair follicle
Some hair protein genes evolved early and were adapted for use in hair follicles.
