research Uncovering the nanoscale structure and biophysics of cutaneous fibrosis-A short review
Understanding the nanoscale structure of skin fibrosis can improve knowledge of wound healing and tissue regeneration.
research 2P546 Structural Analysis of Curly and Straight Human Hair Fibers by Scanning Microbeam SAXS(52. Bio-imaging,Poster Session,Abstract,Meeting Program of EABS & BSJ 2006)
Curly and straight hair differ in how their internal fibers are arranged.
research Investigating the origins of nanostructural variations in differential ethnic hair types using X‐ray scattering techniques
Different ethnic hair types have unique nanoscopic and molecular features despite having the same basic keratin structure.
research Organization of microfibrils in keratin fibers studied by X-ray scattering
The study improved understanding of keratin fiber structure by showing consistent microfibril diameter but varying distances and electron density profiles.
research Structural analysis of human hair single fibres by scanning microbeam SAXS
Hair curliness is due to uneven distribution of different cortices within the hair fiber.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Hard alpha-keratin degradation inside a tissue under high flux X-ray synchrotron micro-beam: A multi-scale time-resolved study
High flux X-ray beams quickly damage the structure of human hair.
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 Thermal Induced Changes in Cuticle and Cortex to Chemically Treated Hair
Heat worsens damage in chemically treated hair, especially bleached and straightened hair.
research Challenges in the Physical Characterization of Lipid Nanoparticles
Characterizing lipid nanoparticles is challenging due to issues with sensitivity, reproducibility, and reliability.
research Attempted construction of minoxidil: carboxylic acid cocrystals; 7 salts and 1 cocrystal resulted
Made 8 minoxidil samples; 1 cocrystal, 7 salts formed.
research Structural & functional studies of L-PGDS and SMPDL3A enzymes in lipid signaling family
L-PGDS has specific binding sites for its functions and could help in drug delivery system design.
research Identification of Breast Cancer-Associated Lipids in Scalp Hair
Breast cancer may be detectable through changes in scalp hair lipids.
research Possible relationships between the physical conditions of cattle and the occurrence of structural modifications of their coat hair
Vitamin A deficiency changes cattle hair structure, while pregnancy may improve it, suggesting hair can indicate cattle health.
research Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Jet Treatment of Human Hair Fibers
Plasma jet treatments can clean hair and might replace peroxide for hair care.
research Biomimetics Through Bioconjugation of 16- Methylheptadecanoic Acid to Damaged Hair for Hair Barrier Recovery
16-MHA can restore the barrier and moisture of damaged hair, making it similar to undamaged hair.
research The Intermediate Filament Architecture as Determined by X-Ray Diffraction Modeling of Hard α-Keratin
Hard α-keratin in hair has a unique, nonordered structure, different from other fibers.
research Effect of shampoo, conditioner and permanent waving on the molecular structure of human hair
Perming significantly changes hair's molecular structure, while shampoo and conditioner do not.
research Giant axonal neuropathy alters the structure of keratin intermediate filaments in human hair
Giant axonal neuropathy changes the structure of keratin in human hair.
research Production and characterization of human hair keratin bioplastic films with novel plasticizers
Human hair was used to make biodegradable plastic films that could be useful for packaging and disposable products.
research High-resolution structures of mutants of residues that affect access to the ligand-binding cavity of human lipocalin-type prostaglandin D synthase
Mutations in the enzyme don't significantly change how it binds to its specific substances.
research Structural and dynamic insights into substrate binding and catalysis of human lipocalin prostaglandin D synthase
The research explains how a human enzyme binds and processes its substrate, which could relate to its role in biological functions and hair loss.
research Regulation of Receptor Binding Specificity of FGF9 by an Autoinhibitory Homodimerization
FGF9 controls which receptors it binds to through a process where two FGF9 molecules join, and changes in FGF9 can lead to incorrect receptor activation.
research Structural Abnormalities in the Hair of a Patient with a Novel Ribosomopathy
The patient's hair was thinner and had fewer lipids due to a genetic mutation.
research The structure of people’s hair
Hair's molecular structure is mostly consistent, but genetic differences affect lipid types, which could help diagnose diseases.
