research Expression of a truncated form of hHb1 hair keratin in human breast carcinomas
Truncated hHb1 keratin may play a role in breast cancer cell transformation.
research Heat‐damaged evaluation of virgin hair
Heat damages hair, with Asian hair losing more protein than Caucasian hair.
research An in Vitro Model for the Study of Human Hair Growth
Researchers created a lab model to study human hair growth, showing it can grow and self-regulate outside the body.
research Lipid loses and barrier function modifications of the brown‐to‐white hair transition
White hair has less lipid content and absorbs water differently than brown hair.
research Fabrication and biological evaluation in vivo of an injectable keratin hydrogel as filler materials
Keratin hydrogel from human hair is a promising biocompatible material for soft tissue fillers.
research Self-consistent field theory for the interactions between keratin intermediate filaments
Keratin filaments' elasticity is influenced by their terminal domains and surrounding medium.
research Long noncoding RNA and gene expression analysis of melatonin-exposed Liaoning cashmere goat fibroblasts indicating cashmere growth
Melatonin treatment increases a specific RNA in goat cells that boosts cashmere growth.
research The Complexity of the Ovine and Caprine Keratin-Associated Protein Genes
Sheep and goat hair fibers are complex due to keratin-associated proteins, which are important for fiber properties and growth.
research Location of keratin-associated proteins in developing fiber cuticle cells using immunoelectron microscopy
Keratin-associated proteins are part of the developing hair fiber cuticle.
research Two-dimensional electrophoretic analysis of human hair keratins, especially hair matrix proteins

research Protein-based functional hydrogel improves cutaneous nerve repair and diabetic wound healing
A protein-based hydrogel helps heal diabetic wounds and repair nerves.
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 Sebaceous Gland Regeneration in Human Skin Xenografts
Human sebaceous glands can grow back in skin grafts on mice and work like normal human glands.
research Fundamental studies on the interaction between moisture and textiles. Part X. Moisture sorption properties of wool and hair fibers.
Wool and hair fibers absorb moisture similarly due to their keratin structure, with the amount of non-crystalline areas affecting the moisture uptake.
research Keratin-6 driven ODC expression to hair follicle keratinocytes enhances stemness and tumorigenesis by negatively regulating Notch
ODC overexpression in hair cells increases tumor growth by reducing Notch signaling.
research Penetration of different molecular weight hydrolysed keratins into hair fibres and their effects on the physical properties of textured hair
Different sizes of keratin peptides can strengthen hair, with smaller ones possibly increasing volume and larger ones repairing damage.
research Hair Keratin
research Pigmented concealing powders for the hair loss patient
Pigmented concealing powders can improve the look of hair density for people with hair loss but need daily application and may not work well in wet conditions.
research Interventional and Intrinsic Airway Homeostasis and Repair
The document concludes that more research is needed to understand airway repair and to improve tissue engineering for lung treatments.
research Single-cell transcriptomics defines keratinocyte differentiation in avian scutate scales
The research identified two types of keratinocytes in chicken scales: one for hard scales and another for soft skin, with similarities to human skin differentiation.
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 Amino Acids, Peptides, and Proteins
The document concludes that cosmetics need biocompatible, eco-friendly ingredients due to aging populations and demand for effective products.
