research 증례 : 모발의 황 농도 감소를 보인 모발유황이영양증
A 7-year-old girl was diagnosed with trichothiodystrophy due to low sulfur levels in her hair.
research Cross-linked features of mouse pelage hair resistant to detergent extraction
Some mutant mice have hair with abnormal cross-linking, mainly in the cuticle, not affecting other hair parts.
research Cisd2 deficiency impairs neutrophil function by regulating calcium homeostasis via Calnexin and SERCA
Lack of Cisd2 disrupts calcium balance in cells, leading to poorly functioning neutrophils.
research Banding Pattern on Polarized Hair Microscopic Examination and Unilateral Polymicrogyria in a Patient With Steroid Sulfatase Deficiency
A patient with steroid sulfatase deficiency had a unique hair pattern and a brain malformation not previously linked to the condition.
research Vertebral epidermal transamidases
Transamidases are present in the epidermis but their exact role is unclear.
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 Conformational differences in protein disulfide linkages between normal hair and hair from subjects with trichothiodystrophy: A quantitative analysis by Raman microspectroscopy
TTD hair is brittle due to fewer sulfur amino acids and unstable disulfide bonds.
research A Congenital Hair Defect: Trichoschisis With Alternating Birefringence and Low Sulfur Content
research A splice variant in KRT71 is associated with curly coat phenotype of Selkirk Rex cats
A gene variant in KRT71 causes the curly fur in Selkirk Rex cats.

research Structural analysis of the outermost hair surface using TOF-SIMS with gas cluster ion beam sputtering
The hair's outermost surface has multiple layers of lipids and proteins.
research Analysis of heterogeneous reaction between reducing agents and keratin fibers using Raman spectroscopy and microspectrophotometry
The study found that thioglycolic acid breaks down hair bonds more consistently than l-cysteine, which is less damaging to hair.
research Homozygous whole body Cbs knockout in adult mice features minimal pathology during ageing despite severe homocysteinemia
Adult mice with CBS deficiency show minimal health issues and normal lifespan despite high homocysteine levels.
research The integrated stress response fine-tunes stem cell fate decisions upon serine deprivation and tissue injury
Serine is vital for hair follicle stem cells to balance hair growth and skin repair.
research Cystathionine β‐synthase‐deficient mice thrive on a low‐methionine diet
Mice with CBS deficiency are healthier on a low-methionine diet.
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 Structures of three polycystic kidney disease-like domains fromClostridium histolyticumcollagenases ColG and ColH
The study concludes that certain domains in Clostridium histolyticum enzymes are structurally unique, bind calcium to become more stable, and play distinct roles in breaking down collagen, with potential applications in medicine and drug delivery.
research Special Biochemical Features of the Hair Follicle
Hair follicles have unique proteins that vary by species and are influenced by nutrition.
research CLED: A Calcium-Linked Protein Associated with Early Epithelial Differentiation
research Mechanism of Laccase-assisted Tyrosine Grafting on Keratin using BSA as a Model Protein
