research Raman spectroscopy and electronic microscopy structural studies of Caucasian and Afro human hair
Hair treatments cause significant structural changes, especially with excessive heat, regardless of ethnicity.
research Characterization of the mechanical properties of the cortex region of human hair fibers by multiparametric Atomic Force Microscopy mapping
Atomic Force Microscopy is a more accurate way to assess hair damage and the effect of cosmetic treatments.
research Keratins: Dynamic, flexible structural proteins of epithelial cells
Keratin proteins in epithelial cells are dynamic and crucial for cell processes and disease understanding.
research cDNA Cloning, Expression, and Assembly Characteristics of Mouse Keratin 16
Mouse and human keratin 16 can both form filaments, with differences likely due to the tail domain, not the helical domain.
research In situ tensile deformation characterization of human hair with atomic force microscopy
AFM helped show how hair changes under tension and the effects of damage and conditioner.
research Decision letter: NuMA-microtubule interactions are critical for spindle orientation and the morphogenesis of diverse epidermal structures
NuMA-microtubule interactions are vital for proper skin structure formation and function.
research UV-A조사에 의한 반영구염색모발의 형태학적 변화
UV-A radiation significantly damages semi-permanent dyed hair.
research Direct Observation of Hair Components Involved in Formation of Permanent Waves
Microfibrils are key for permanent waves, and hydrolyzed keratin improves wave formation and hair condition.
research Nanoindentation of Hair Cortex and Medulla Regions
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 The toughening transition in hair keratin
The observed "toughening" in keratin was actually due to water evaporation, not a real change in keratin.
research Quantifying the effects of repeated dyeing: morphological, mechanical, and chemical changes in human hair fibers
Repeated hair dyeing significantly damages hair.
research Rand Protease: The Role of Calcium-Binding Site on Stability with Mutagenesis and The Effectiveness on Leather Dehairing
The enzyme Rand protease works well for leather dehairing and its stability is important, with Leu75 playing a key role.
research Photoinduced formation of thiols in human hair
UV exposure damages hair, increasing thiols and altering protein structure.
research The structure of the “amorphous” matrix of keratins
Human hair keratin fibers have a detailed nano-scale structure that changes with different conditions.
research Novel insights into hair structure and the effects of chemical stressors on hair and skin using label-free advanced light microscopy
Chemical stressors damage hair structure but the skin's outer layer protects living cells.
research A Dispute Between the Cavendish and Caltech: The Emergence and Ubiquity of the α-Helix
The alpha-helix was confirmed as a key structure in proteins.
research Decision letter: Arabidopsis formin 2 regulates cell-to-cell trafficking by capping and stabilizing actin filaments at plasmodesmata
Arabidopsis Formin 2 stabilizes actin filaments to aid cell-to-cell trafficking.
research Internal structure changes in bleached black human hair resulting from chemical treatments: A Raman spectroscopic investigation
Chemical treatments on bleached black hair change its internal structure by breaking and reforming bonds, and treatments with hydrolyzed eggwhite protein help repair it.
research Mechanism research of yak hair stretching slenderization based on the changes of conformation and cell shape
Yak hair stretches mainly due to macromolecules slipping past each other.
research The Type I Keratin 19 Possesses Distinct and Context-dependent Assembly Properties
Keratin 19 forms less stable and shorter filaments than keratin 14, giving unique traits to certain skin cells.
research Coordination of force-generating actin-based modules stabilizes and remodels membranes in vivo
Actin filaments help stabilize and reshape cell membranes.
