Human beard hair medulla contains a unique and complex mix of keratins not found in other human tissues.
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 Protein and amino acid composition of hair from mice carrying the naked (N) gene
The N gene affects the protein makeup of mouse hair.
research Transforming growth factor-β in stem cells and tissue homeostasis
TGF-β is crucial for tissue repair and can cause diseases if not properly regulated.
research Hair follicle differentiation and regulation.
Hair follicle growth and development are controlled by specific genes and molecular signals.
research α3β1-integrin regulates hair follicle but not interfollicular morphogenesis in adult epidermis
α3β1-integrin is crucial for maintaining normal hair follicle shape and function but not needed for the development of the surrounding skin.
research Heat‐damaged evaluation of virgin hair
Heat damages hair, with Asian hair losing more protein than Caucasian hair.
research Insights on the mechanical behavior of keratin fibrils
Keratin's mechanical properties are influenced by hydrogen bonds and secondary structure, and can be improved with the SPD-2 peptide.
research Biology of Human Hair: Know Your Hair to Control It
Understanding hair biology is key to developing better treatments for hair and scalp issues.
research pH Dependence of the Coiled-Coil Structure of Keratin Intermediate Filament in Human Hair by 13C NMR Spectroscopy and the Mechanism of Its Disruption
Keratin structure in hair is stable at pH 5-6 but disrupts between pH 6-7.
research A discrete transition zone between cuticle and cortex layers of a human hair fibre: changes observed in the presence of breast cancer
Breast cancer alters specific molecular structures in hair, which revert after cancer removal.
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 Proteomic tools for the investigation of human hair structural proteins and evidence of weakness sites on hair keratin coil segments
Hair proteins have weak spots in their α-helical segments.
research Variation in human hair ultrastructure among three biogeographic populations
Different populations have distinct hair structures related to their ancestry.
research Raman spectroscopy and electronic microscopy structural studies of Caucasian and Afro human hair
Hair treatments cause significant structural changes, especially with excessive heat, regardless of ethnicity.
research Targeted expression of SV40 T antigen in the hair follicle of transgenic mice produces an aberrant hair phenotype
SV40 T antigen in hair follicles causes abnormal hair and health issues in mice.
research Topographical and Tribological Characteristics of Asian Human Hair Cuticles
Hair damage increases significantly with higher temperatures and longer heating times.
research Cysteine and Glutamine level in hair shaft fractures patients
Cysteine strengthens hair, and glutamine fuels hair growth.
research Elemental hair analysis: A review of procedures and applications
Hair elemental analysis could be useful for health and exposure assessment but requires more standardization and research.
research Changing the shape of hair with keratin peptides
Keratin peptides can change hair shape gently without harsh chemicals.
research A discourse on human hair fibers and reflections on the conservation of drug molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
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 Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds—Revisiting the cause of a well-known disease
Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds is caused by structural defects in hair shafts due to downregulated genes and proteins.
research HAIR | Overview
The document explains how hair is studied in forensics to identify its source and its role in criminal investigations.
research Structure and Development of the Skin and Cutaneous Appendages
Understanding skin structure and development helps diagnose and treat skin disorders.
research Analysis of the Working Principle of Hair Dye
Understanding different hair dye types can make them safer and better.
research Keratinocytes and Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells : The heir and the spare to regenerative cellular therapies for difficult-to-heal skin wounds
