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 The Molecular Architecture for the Intermediate Filaments of Hardα-Keratin Based on the Superlattice Data Obtained from a Study of Mammals Using Synchrotron Fibre Diffraction
Hard α-keratin has a universal molecular structure with a specific superlattice arrangement.
research Porosity at Different Structural Levels in Human and Yak Belly Hair and Its Effect on Hair Dyeing
Yak belly hair has higher porosity and is less stiff than human hair, making it absorb dye better but less suitable as a direct substitute for hair dyeing.
research ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND CONTEMPORARY HUMAN HAIR COMPOSITION AND MORPHOLOGY
Mummy hair's chemical composition may not accurately show ancient people's health due to environmental contamination.
research In vivo formation steps of the hard α-keratin intermediate filament along a hair follicle: Evidence for structural polymorphism
Hair follicles form hard α-keratin filaments in four steps, showing structural differences.
research Hair growth at a solid-liquid interface as a protein crystal without cell division
Hair grows like a crystal at a solid-liquid interface without cell division.
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 Exploring a biological tissue from atomic to macroscopic scale using synchrotron radiation: example of hair.
Hair has unevenly distributed proteins and lipids, with lipids mainly in the cuticle and proteins in the cortex and medulla.
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 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 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 Human Hair as a Testing Substrate in the Era of Precision Medicine: Potential Role of ‘Omics-Based Approaches
Human hair shows promise for non-invasive medical testing, but more research is needed to standardize its use.
research Regulation of pathophysiological and tissue regenerative functions of MSCs mediated via the WNT signaling pathway (Review)
The WNT signaling pathway is crucial for mesenchymal stem cells' function and therapy success.
research Hair Lipid Structure: Effect of Surfactants
Surfactants in shampoos and conditioners remove some but not all lipids from hair, and more research is needed to understand their full impact.
research Curly hair: measured differences and contributions to breakage
Curly hair breaks more easily, especially with chemical treatments, but simpler grooming reduces breakage.
research Potential of the Nano-Encapsulation of Antioxidant Molecules in Wound Healing Applications: An Innovative Strategy to Enhance the Bio-Profile
Combining polymers and lipids may improve antioxidant delivery for wound healing, but practical challenges remain.
research Role of Silver Nanoparticles in Wound Healing: Mechanisms, Efficacy, and Clinical Applications
Silver nanoparticles help heal wounds by preventing infections and promoting tissue repair.
research Recent Advances in the Use of Cubosomes as Drug Carriers with Special Emphasis on Topical Applications
Cubosomes improve drug delivery for skin and eye diseases by enhancing adhesion, retention, and release.
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 Chitosan-decorated polystyrene-b-poly(acrylic acid) polymersomes as novel carriers for topical delivery of finasteride
Chitosan-decorated polymersomes improve finasteride delivery for hair loss treatment.
research A discrete transition zone between cuticle and cortex layers of a human hair fibre: changes observed in the presence of breast cancer
Breast cancer alters specific molecular structures in hair, which revert after cancer removal.
research The reduction of selenium(IV) by boreal Pseudomonas sp. strain T5-6-I – Effects on selenium(IV) uptake in Brassica oleracea
Pseudomonas sp. T5-6-I bacteria increase selenium uptake in Brassica oleracea plants by 130%.
