Research
270-300 / 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 Local structure of human hair spatially resolved by sub-micron X-ray beam
Human hair has a new region with ordered filaments and the cuticle contains β-keratin sheets.
research Structural changes in trichocyte keratin intermediate filaments during keratinization
Keratin structure changes during keratinization, but the exact model remains uncertain.
research Autosomal Recessive Transmission of a Rare KRT74 Variant Causes Hair and Nail Ectodermal Dysplasia: Allelism with Dominant Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis
A rare gene variant causes hair and nail issues in a family.
research Telomere dysfunction impairs epidermal stem cell specification and differentiation by disrupting BMP/pSmad/P63 signaling
Telomere damage affects skin and hair follicle stem cells by messing up important growth signals.
research Structural and biochemical changes underlying a keratoderma-like phenotype in mice lacking suprabasal AP1 transcription factor function
Inhibiting AP1 in mice skin causes structural changes and weakens the skin barrier.
research Genetics of Structural Hair Disorders
The document concludes that over 500 genes are linked to hair disorders and this knowledge is important for creating new treatments.
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.
research Microscopical characterization of known postmortem root bands using light and scanning electron microscopy
The research found that postmortem root bands in hair are likely caused by the breakdown of a specific part of the hair's inner structure after death.
research A Clinical Trial to Investigate the Effect of Cynatine HNS on Hair and Nail Parameters
Cynatine HNS improves hair and nail quality in 90 days.
research Qualitative investigation of fresh human scalp hair with full-field optical coherence tomography
Melanin density affects hair color, and this method can help in cosmetic assessments and diagnosing hair diseases.
research A Note on Postinflammatory Hair Darkening
Hair can darken after inflammation and then return to its original color.
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 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.
research The Effects of an Oral Supplementation of a Natural Keratin Hydrolysate on Skin Aging: A Randomized, Double‐Blind, Placebo‐Controlled Clinical Study in Healthy Women
Taking natural keratin supplements improved skin, hair, and nails in women.
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 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 Formulation and Examination of Organic Oil and Shampoo from Fish Scales
Fish scale-based organic hair oil and shampoo may improve hair health and prevent damage.
