research Ultrastructural localization of hair keratins, high sulfur keratin-associated proteins and sulfhydryl oxidase in the human hair
Hair proteins change location and structure as hair cells mature.
research Seasonal Variability in Transcript Expression of Type I and Type II Keratins in Wool Follicles of Lustrous Fleece-Producing Magra Sheep
Higher keratin protein levels are important for the wool's shine in Magra sheep.
research Proteome Analysis of Human Hair Shaft
Human hair contains many proteins, with some being highly abundant and modified.
research Known and Unknown Features of Hair Cuticle Structure: A Brief Review
The hair cuticle is made of tough proteins that protect the hair, but more research is needed to fully understand its structure.
research Telomere Dynamics and Telomerase in the Biology of Hair Follicles and their Stem Cells as a Model for Aging Research
Hair follicle studies suggest that maintaining telomere length could help treat hair loss and graying, but it's uncertain if mouse results apply to humans.
research Nutritional Disorders of the Hair and Their Management
research Proteomic Analysis of Crimped and Straight Wool in Chinese Tan Sheep
Crimped wool has proteins linked to crimp formation, while straight wool has proteins linked to fiber fineness, which can improve wool quality and value.
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.
research Profiling of hair proteome revealed individual demographics
Hair protein analysis might help identify a person's ethnicity, sex, and age in forensics.

research Intrinsic and Extrinsic Factors Associated with Hair Graying (Canities) and Therapeutic Potential of Plant Extracts and Phytochemicals
Plant extracts may help prevent or reverse hair graying.
research The susceptibility of disulfide bonds to modification in keratin fibers undergoing tensile stress
Disulfide bonds in keratin fibers break more easily under stress, especially when wet, affecting fiber strength.
research Strategies for improved hair binding: Keratin fractions and the impact of cationic substructures
Certain treatments can increase protein binding to natural hair but are less effective on permed hair.
research Disulfide Cross-Linked Network Structure of Intermediate Filament and Matrix in Hair and Wool Cortices
Hair and wool strength is affected by the number and type of bonds in their protein structures, with hair having more protein aggregates than wool.
research Internal structure changes in bleached black human hair resulting from chemical treatments: A Raman spectroscopic investigation
Chemical treatments on bleached black hair change its internal structure by breaking and reforming bonds, and treatments with hydrolyzed eggwhite protein help repair it.
research Reproduction Mechanism of SS Cross-Links in Permed Hair by the Washing after Reduction with Thioglycolic Acid
Washing permed hair after using thioglycolic acid helps reform strong bonds, making hair stronger.
research Improved two‐dimensional electrophoretic mapping of Japanese human hair proteins; application to curved and straight Japanese human hairs; and protein identification by MALDI MS and MS/MS quadrupole time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry
The study found that minor protein differences between curved and straight Japanese hair are unlikely to significantly affect hair structure.
