research Induction of Hair Keratins Expression by an Annurca Apple-Based Nutraceutical Formulation in Human Follicular Cells
An apple-based supplement was found to stimulate hair protein production, which may help with hair growth.
research Insights on the mechanical behavior of keratin fibrils
Keratin's mechanical properties are influenced by hydrogen bonds and secondary structure, and can be improved with the SPD-2 peptide.
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 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 Alopecia in Harlequin mutant mice is associated with reduced AIF protein levels and expression of retroviral elements
Harlequin mutant mice have hair loss due to low AIF protein levels and retroviral element activity.
research Loose anagen hair syndrome in two patients with epidermolysis bullosa simplex, Dowling-Meara type
Two patients with the same genetic mutation had both blistering skin and easily pulled out hair.
research An Uncontrolled Innovative Test of Cryo-Chilled Carbon Dioxide as A Novel Amplification of a Nano-Botanical Multi-Acting Therapy in Advanced Stage Androgenetic Alopecia (Aga)
The treatment showed promising hair regrowth in advanced-stage hair loss.
research Biocompatibility of KAPs-Depleted Residual Hair
KAP-depleted hair causes less immune response and is more biocompatible for implants.
research Label-free proteomics to identify keratins and keratin-associated proteins and their effects on the fleece traits of Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats
Proteins influence the quality and traits of cashmere goat fleece, affecting hair strength and diameter.
research Chemical Danger in Hair Keratin Care
Hair keratin treatments can be harmful, potentially causing health issues like skin reactions and cancer.
research A modular modeling approach for investigating wool critical buckling from biologically variable along-fiber microstructure
The model helps understand how wool fiber structure affects its strength and flexibility.

Neurohormones help control skin health and could treat skin disorders.
research Alopecia androgénica femenina: nuevos factores fisiopatológicos y futuras tendencias para un abordaje clínico más integral
New factors in female hair loss include genetics, hormones, stress, and inflammation; future treatments should also focus on these areas and consider the patient's emotional well-being.
research Human hair keratin hydrogel : fabrication, characterization and application
Keratin hydrogels from human hair show promise for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
research Immunolocalization of junctional proteins in human hairs indicates that the membrane complex stabilizes the inner root sheath while desmosomes contact the companion layer through specific keratins
Junctional proteins stabilize the inner root sheath and connect the companion layer in human hair.
research The usefulness of trichoscopy in the diagnosing of fibrosing alopecia in pattern distribution
Trichoscopy is crucial for accurately diagnosing fibrosing alopecia in pattern distribution.
