Alopecia mucinosa is a challenging condition with unclear diagnosis and treatment.
research Formation and Structure of Human Hair
Human hair growth and structure are influenced by keratin proteins, genes, melanin, and lipids.
research Trichothiodystrophy
Trichothiodystrophy is a condition with brittle hair and various physical and mental issues due to low sulfur in proteins.
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 New Case of Isolated Trichothiodystrophy
A rare case of isolated trichothiodystrophy was identified, marked by brittle hair with low sulfur content.
research [Trichothiodystrophy: a morphological and biochemical study].
Trichothiodystrophy involves brittle hair due to low sulfur amino acids, not a transport defect.
research In utero Diagnosis of Trichothiodystrophy by Endoscopically-Guided Fetal Eyebrow Biopsy
Prenatal diagnosis of trichothiodystrophy is possible in the second trimester using fetal eyebrow biopsy, with sulfur content analysis being more reliable.

A new method accurately measures lead levels in hair to assess exposure.
research Evolution of Trichocyte Keratins
Hair keratins evolved from ancient proteins, diversifying through gene changes, crucial for forming claws and later hair in mammals.
research Further Insights in Trichothiodistrophy: A Clinical, Microscopic, and Ultrastructural Study of 20 Cases and Literature Review
TTD symptoms vary widely, requiring thorough evaluations.
research Copper and calcium uptake in colored hair
Hair coloring increases copper and calcium uptake, damaging hair and reducing shine.
research Giant Axonal Degeneration: Scanning Electron Microscopic and Biochemical Study of Scalp Hair
The patient's hair had unique damage and a lower sulfur-to-nitrogen ratio compared to relatives, but not compared to healthy controls.
research A RARE FORM OF SUPPURATING AND CICATRIZING DISEASE OF THE SCALP
A rare scalp disease causes hair loss, pus-filled nodules, and scarring.
research Recent advances in X-ray microanalysis in dermatology.
Trace elements like calcium, iron, and zinc are unevenly distributed in hair, while sulfur is even, and increased phosphorus and potassium levels are linked to skin reactions.

research Utilization of L-Cystine and L- and D-Methionine by Mink during the Period of Intensive Hair Growth
Mink use L-methionine and L-cystine slightly better than natural amino acids for hair growth, but D-methionine is not effective.
research Trichothiodystrophy: Current Concepts
TTD patients don't have a higher skin cancer risk because their main issue is with transcription, not DNA repair.
research Silicon in hair loss: a preliminary SEM microanalysis study
The study suggests silicon might be important for healthy hair, as less silicon was found in people with hair loss.
