30 / 1000+ results research Crystallin Fusion Proteins Improve the Thermal Properties of Hair
Fusion proteins can protect hair from heat damage.
research Impact of ultraviolet radiation‐induced damage to hair fiber integrity: A multi‐technique physicochemical characterization of surface and cortex properties
UV radiation damages hair similar to bleaching, but double bleaching causes more severe protein degradation.
research Molecular elements of the regulatory control of keratin filament modulator AHF/trichohyalin in the hair follicle
The study concluded that a protein important for hair strength is regulated by certain molecular processes and is affected by growth phases.
research Cryogelation of human hair keratins
Human hair keratins can be turned into useful 3D biomedical scaffolds through a freeze-thaw process.
research Skin metabolism in obesity: A narrative review
Obesity harms skin health by causing inflammation and delayed wound healing.
research An Electron Microscopy Study of Keratin Degradation by the Fungus Microsporum gypseum in vitro
Microsporum gypseum fungus breaks down keratin in hair by digesting it enzymatically, starting with less keratinized parts.
research Improvement of Mechanical Properties of 3D Bioprinted Structures through Cellular Overgrowth
Cell growth improved the strength of 3D bioprinted structures.
research Photoaggravation of hair aging
