960-990 / 1000+ results research Comparative genomics analyses of alpha-keratins reveal insights into evolutionary adaptation of marine mammals
Marine mammals lost many α-keratin genes, aiding their adaptation to aquatic life by becoming hairless.
research Characterisation of an Ovine Keratin Associated Protein (KAP) Gene, Which Would Produce a Protein Rich in Glycine and Tyrosine, but Lacking in Cysteine
A new sheep gene, KRTAP36-1, may help breed sheep with better wool by reducing prickle factor.
research In vivo formation steps of the hard α-keratin intermediate filament along a hair follicle: Evidence for structural polymorphism
Hair follicles form hard α-keratin filaments in four steps, showing structural differences.
research Investigation of aging effects in human hair using atomic force microscopy
Aging makes hair thinner and rougher, with less clear edges.
research Thiolated and PEGylated silica nanoparticle delivery to hair follicles
Using longer PEG chains helps nanoparticles penetrate hair follicles better, improving drug delivery for conditions like alopecia.
research Electrophoretic variability in human head hair: Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of hair proteins in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate and urea
Human head hair proteins can be typed into eight distinct patterns, useful for genetic and forensic investigations.
research The New Keratin Nomenclature
The keratin naming system was updated to include 54 genes, especially for hair-related keratins.
research New keratin isolates: actives for natural hair protection.
Keratin helps protect and strengthen hair, reducing damage and color fading.
research Characterization of the Human Hair Shaft Cuticle–Specific Keratin-Associated Protein 10 Family
KRTAP10 proteins help form the hair shaft's tough outer layer by interacting with specific hair keratins.
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 [Genetic and biochemical aspects of keratin synthesis by hair follicles].
Coordinated gene activities are crucial for normal hair growth.
research Feature-Based Molecular Networks Identification of Bioactive Metabolites from Three Plants of the Polynesian Cosmetopoeia Targeting the Dermal Papilla Cells of the Hair Cycle
Certain compounds in three Polynesian plants may help hair growth.
research Genome-wide identification, characterization, and expression analysis of keratin genes (KRTs) family in yak (Bos grunniens)
Scientists found 53 keratin genes in yaks that are important for hair growth and share similarities with those in other animals.
research Structural investigation on damaged hair keratin treated with α,β-unsaturated Michael acceptors used as repairing agents
Treatments improved hair surface and scale structure but didn't increase certain bonds in the hair cortex.
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 Discovery of differentially expressed genes in cashmere goat (Capra hircus) hair follicles by RNA sequencing
Researchers found 617 genes that behave differently in cashmere goat hair follicles, which could help understand hair growth.
research Bioinformatics analysis of genes associated with the patchy-type alopecia areata: CD2 may be a new therapeutic target
CD2 might be a new treatment target for patchy alopecia areata.
research Transcriptome Analysis of Improved Wool Production in Skin-Specific Transgenic Sheep Overexpressing Ovine β-Catenin
Genetically modified sheep with more β-catenin grew more wool without changing the wool's length or thickness.
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 The Influence of Electrode Potentials on the Extent of Reduction of Cystine in Hair Fibers by Reducing Agents
The effectiveness of reducing agents on hair fibers depends on their electrode potentials.
research Keratin 79 identifies a novel population of migratory epithelial cells that initiates hair canal morphogenesis and regeneration
Keratin 79 cells help form and regenerate hair canals.
research Anionic Surfactants as Detergents for Scalp and Hair
AMT is the best surfactant for hair and scalp care.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
Genes related to keratin, skin cell differentiation, and immune functions are key in hedgehog skin and spine development.
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.

Chemotherapy improved a girl's painful foot condition linked to pachyonychia congenita.
research A comparison of dyeing efficacy between hair‐oxidation‐based and hair‐coating‐based shampoos for the treatment of gray hair
Hair-coating shampoos dye better initially, but hair-oxidation shampoos keep color longer and may damage hair more.
research Hair Cosmetics for the Hair Loss Patient
Proper hair care and safe use of hair products are crucial for those with hair loss.
research Hair Physiology (Hair Growth, Alopecia, Scalp Treatment, etc.)
The document concludes that new treatments for hair loss may involve a combination of cosmetics, clinical methods, and genetic approaches.
