External factors like certain shampoos, bacterial infections, and parasites might cause hair defects similar to genetic conditions.

Intermediate filaments are crucial for cell differentiation and stem cell function.

Hair structural proteins are synthesized sequentially in specific cells, offering a new way to study hair proteins and defects.

Age-related hair curvature increases due to internal structural changes from grooming.

Topical glucocorticoids thin the skin and change collagen structure.

Friedreich's ataxia causes thin, weak hair with surface damage and cavities.

The trichohyalin gene is located at chromosomal region 1q21 with other skin-related protein genes.

JunB is crucial for maintaining healthy skin and hair follicles.

Disulfide bonds are crucial for hair structure during keratinization.

The skin's basement membrane has specialized structures and molecules for different tissue interactions, important for hair growth and attachment.

Hair is hard to dissolve because of its complex proteins, but certain solvents that break specific bonds and hydrate can do it.

Hair treatments cause significant structural changes, especially with excessive heat, regardless of ethnicity.

The skin's basement membrane is specially designed to support different types of connections between skin layers and hair follicles.

The transporter protein SH1446 in Staphylococcus hominis is key to underarm odor production.

A new minoxidil-like substance, triaminodil, was found in an illegal hair growth supplement.
