research Convergent Evolution of Cysteine-Rich Keratins in Hard Skin Appendages of Terrestrial Vertebrates
Cysteine-rich keratins evolved independently in mammals, reptiles, and birds for hard skin structures like hair, claws, and feathers.
research Stability of opiates in hair fibers after exposure to cosmetic treatment
Cosmetic treatments like bleaching and perming can greatly reduce opiate levels in hair, possibly leading to false-negative drug tests.
research Action of Thioglycolic Acid and L-Cysteine to Disulfide Cross-Links in Hair Fibers during Permanent Waving Treatment
Thioglycolic acid and L-cysteine change hair structure differently during perms, affecting hair strength and curling efficiency.
research Fractal geometry and topology abstracted from hair fibers
Hair fibers have fractal patterns with properties related to the golden mean, which may affect their functionality.
research Examining polyquaternium polymers deposition on human excised hair fibers
Certain polymers can stick to hair and increase volume, working best at a pH of 7 to 9.
research Effects of Hair Fibers on Braking Friction Materials
Adding 1% hair fibers to brake materials improves friction and wear, making them more effective.
research Hair today, gone tomorrow: the degradation and conservation of archaeological hair fibers
Acidic sandy clay damages archaeological hair the most, while dry conditions preserve but make it brittle; silicone oil can help keep the hair flexible.
research Cryogelation of human hair keratins
Human hair keratins can be turned into useful 3D biomedical scaffolds through a freeze-thaw process.
research Electrospun fibrous sponge via short fiber for mimicking 3D ECM
The 3D electrospun fibrous sponge is promising for tissue repair and healing diabetic wounds.
research Charge density alterations in human hair fibers: an investigation using electrostatic force microscopy
The study found that a polymer treatment changes the charge on hair surfaces, making bleached hair smoother and less porous.
research Impact of acid straightener's pH value in the hair fiber properties
Lower pH straighteners change hair more but weaken it.
research In Vitro Methodologies to Evaluate the Effects of Hair Care Products on Hair Fiber
Different tests are used to see how hair care products affect hair, and choosing the right test is important for accurate results.
research Human pollution exposure correlates with accelerated ultrastructural degradation of hair fibers
Pollution exposure speeds up hair damage.
research Hair follicle transcriptome profiles during the transition from anagen to catagen in Cashmere goat (Capra hircus)
The transition from growth to regression in Cashmere goat hair follicles involves changes in expression of genes related to keratin and cell differentiation.
research Heat‐damaged evaluation of virgin hair
Heat damages hair, with Asian hair losing more protein than Caucasian hair.
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 Amino Acids, Peptides, and Proteins
The document concludes that cosmetics need biocompatible, eco-friendly ingredients due to aging populations and demand for effective products.
research Simultaneous RP-HPLC-DAD determination of dansyl amino acids in chemically treated human hair
A new method accurately measures amino acids in treated hair, showing bleaching reduces amino acids while protein treatments increase them.
research Effects of FGF5-mediated LncRNA on the skin fibroblast growth of Liaoning Cashmere goats
FGF-5 promotes Cashmere goat hair growth by increasing keratin genes and reducing certain LncRNA and target genes.
research Screening and Identification of LncRNAs Related to Villus Growth of Liaoning Cashmere Goats and Their Effects on Growth after FGF5 Treatment
Certain long non-coding RNAs in cashmere goats affect hair growth when treated with a specific growth factor.
research Evaluation and formulation of Spirulina platensis proteins for potential applications in hair care products
Spirulina proteins can improve hair smoothness and strength in hair care products.
research Design of a biofluid-absorbing bioactive sandwich-structured Zn–Si bioceramic composite wound dressing for hair follicle regeneration and skin burn wound healing
Wound dressing absorbs fluid, regenerates hair follicles, and heals skin burns.
research Trichorrhexis Nodosa Secondary to Argininosuccinicaciduria
Hair thinning and loss in a girl with a rare metabolic disorder was linked to her condition.
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 Omics for Precious Rare Biosamples: Characterization of Ancient Human Hair by a Proteomic Approach
The study developed a method to analyze ancient hair proteins using very small samples.
