570-600 / 1000+ resultsresearch The swelling behaviour of hair studied through the structural change of keratin protein during the permanent waving treatment
Hair structure changes immediately during perm treatment, with initial damage partially restored later.
research Synergistic effect of carbodiimide and dehydrothermal crosslinking on acellular dermal matrix
Combining DHT and EDC improves the strength and stability of PADM scaffolds for tissue engineering.
research Deimination and Peptidylarginine Deiminases in Skin Physiology and Diseases
PADs are crucial for healthy skin and hair, and their imbalance can cause skin and hair disorders.
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 Distribution Analysis of Triglyceride Having Repair Effect on Damaged Human Hair by TOF-SIMS
Hydrogenated palm oil repairs and conditions damaged hair by preventing swelling.
research A New Permanent Straightening Process of Human Hair Using the Water Set
The new hair straightening method keeps hair straight permanently by using specific creams and heat.
research Hydrogel-Forming Microneedles for Transdermal Drug Delivery
Hydrogel-forming microneedles are a safe and effective method for delivering drugs through the skin.
research Bilayer dressing based on aerogel/electrospun mats with self-catalytic hydrogen sulfide generation and enhanced antioxidant ability
The dressing generates hydrogen sulfide to help heal wounds faster by reducing inflammation and promoting cell growth.
research Tight junctions form a barrier in porcine hair follicles
Tight junctions create a barrier in pig hair follicles that controls what can enter the skin.
research Expression of MsPG3‐GFP fusions in Medicago truncatula‘hairy roots’ reveals preferential tip localization of the protein in root hairs
MsPG3 protein gathers at root hair tips, aiding growth.
research Structural perspectives on the androgen receptor, the elusive shape-shifter
The androgen receptor's shape-changing ability helps it function but can lead to cancer treatment resistance.
research Hyaluronate - Minoxidil Conjugates for Transdermal Treatment of Hair Loss
research Marangoni effect in the water wetting of surfactant coated human hair fibers
The study found that the Marangoni effect causes the uneven wetting of surfactant-coated hair due to the surfactant moving into the water.
research A novel method for visualizing hair lipids at the cell membrane complex: Argon sputter etching/scanning electron microscopy1
The method shows how hair lipids form specific patterns and their roles in hair structure.
research Wetting behavior of human hair fibers
Human hair's ability to get wet is complex and can change with treatments, damage, and environment.
research A Ca 2+ /calmodulin-dependent protein kinase required for symbiotic nodule development: Gene identification by transcript-based cloning
The DMI3 gene is essential for nodule development and symbiosis in certain plants.
research Cell death by cornification
Cornification is how skin cells die to form the protective outer layer of skin, hair, and nails.
research Regulation of adult stem cell quiescence and its functions in the maintenance of tissue integrity
Quiescent adult stem cells are crucial for tissue repair and maintenance.
research Corneodesmosin gene ablation induces lethal skin-barrier disruption and hair-follicle degeneration related to desmosome dysfunction
Deleting the CDSN gene causes severe skin and hair problems, leading to death.
research Two Hydroxyproline Galactosyltransferases, GALT5 and GALT2, Function in Arabinogalactan-Protein Glycosylation, Growth and Development in Arabidopsis
GALT5 and GALT2 are important for plant growth and development because they help with protein glycosylation.
