150-180 / 1000+ resultsresearch Modification of wheat gluten for improvement of binding capacity with keratin in hair
Modified wheat protein in shampoo repairs and smooths damaged hair effectively.
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 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 Bubble Hair and the Usefulness of Trichoscopy
Bubble hair damage is caused by high heat from styling tools, and trichoscopy helps diagnose it.
research An in vitro analysis of the hemostatic efficacy of fibrinogen precipitation with varied keratin fraction compositions
Human hair proteins can help blood clot when mixed in equal parts.
research A dietary supplement improves age-related dermatological changes. Observational, anecdotal, spontaneous study.
The dietary supplement significantly improved skin, nails, and hair in older adults.
research The genetic basis of dermatophytosis skin infection susceptibility
Genetic factors, skin barrier, immune function, and obesity influence risk of fungal skin infections.
research Malignant appearance of trichilemmal cyst: a case report with review of the literature
A man's neck lump was a trichilemmal cyst, not cancer, and should be fully removed due to rare risk of becoming malignant.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.
research Peer Review #2 of "Human hair shaft proteomic profiling: individual differences, site specificity and cuticle analysis (v0.1)"
The research found that people's hair proteins vary, especially by ethnicity and body part, which could help identify individuals in forensic science.
research Peer Review #1 of "Human hair shaft proteomic profiling: individual differences, site specificity and cuticle analysis (v0.1)"
The research found that people's hair proteins vary by individual and body part, with some differences between ethnic groups, which could help in forensics.
research Ziehl-Neelsen's stain for skin sections to show wool and hair follicles
Ziehl-Neelsen's stain helps identify different parts of hair in sheep and goats.
research Differential expression of keratin and keratin associated proteins are linked with hair loss condition in spontaneously mutated inbred mice
Hair loss in certain mice is linked to changes in keratin-related genes.
research 839 Spatiotemporal antagonism in mesenchymal-epithelial Signaling in sweat versus hair fate decision
Sweat glands and hair follicles are determined by opposing signals, with BMPs promoting sweat glands and blocking BMPs leading to hair follicles.
research 840 Early and late matrix progenitors form the terminally differentiated cell layers of the hair follicle
Early and late matrix progenitors in hair follicles create different cell layers, with early ones forming the companion layer and later ones forming the inner root sheath and hair shaft.
research 837 From genotoxic stresses to skin damage: Distinct, novel mechanisms of skin and hair damage in chemo/radiation therapy
Chemotherapy and radiation therapy cause skin and hair damage by altering gene expression and signaling pathways.
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 Trends in Human Hair Growth and Alopecia Research
The book reveals diverse patterns of hair growth in different species and advancements in hair and alopecia research.
research 1315 An Integrated model of alopecia areata biomarkers highlights both Th1/Th2 upregulation, with stronger correlations between Th2 activation and disease severity
Both Th1 and Th2 immune responses are increased in alopecia areata, with Th2 response more strongly linked to how severe the disease is.
research Fine structure and immunocytochemistry of monotreme hairs, with emphasis on the inner root sheath and trichohyalin‐based cornification during hair evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
