Human hair contains diverse proteins, including keratins and histones, which could help assess hair health and aging.
research Plasticity and Cytokinetic Dynamics of the Hair Follicle Mesenchyme During the Hair Growth Cycle: Implications for Growth Control and Hair Follicle Transformations
Disruptions in hair follicle fibroblast dynamics can cause hair growth problems.
research Tannic acid modified keratin/sodium alginate/carboxymethyl chitosan biocomposite hydrogels with good mechanical properties and swelling behavior
The hydrogel shows promise for wound healing due to its strong mechanical, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties.
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 Review of the current understanding of the effect of ultraviolet and visible radiation on hair structure and options for photoprotection
UV radiation and visible light can damage hair, but there are ways to protect it.
research LncRNA-000133 from secondary hair follicle of Cashmere goat: identification, regulatory network and its effects on inductive property of dermal papilla cells
A newly found RNA in Cashmere goats may play a role in hair growth and development.
research Molecular modeling and structural characterization of a high glycine–tyrosine hair keratin associated protein
The 3D structure of a key hair protein was modeled, revealing specific helical structures and stabilization features.
research Bio-macromolecules/modified-halloysite composite hydrogel used as multi-functional wound dressing
The new hydrogel is good for wound dressing because it absorbs water quickly, has high porosity, can release drugs, fights bacteria, and helps wounds heal with less scarring.
research Studies of light scattering from ethnic hair fibers
Different hair types from various ethnic groups affect hair shine due to characteristics like thickness and shape.
research Simultaneous RP-HPLC-DAD determination of dansyl amino acids in chemically treated human hair
A new method accurately measures amino acids in treated hair, showing bleaching reduces amino acids while protein treatments increase them.

Human hair structure varies by ethnicity, and certain treatments can improve hair condition and appearance.
research A comparative study of materials assembled from recombinant K31 and K81 and extracted human hair keratins
Recombinant keratin materials may better promote skin cell differentiation than natural keratin.
research A Review on Forensic Toxicological Analysis of Drugs in Hair using Various Instrumental Techniques
Hair analysis is better than urine and blood for detecting past drug use.
research Skin transcriptome reveals the Periodic changes in genes underlying hair follicle cycling in Cashmere goats
Cashmere goats have a hair growth cycle with specific genes regulating growth, regression, and resting periods.
research Tensile properties of twisted hair fibers
Twisting hair weakens it, but strength can be recovered at low twist levels.
research Integrative Whole-Transcriptome Sequencing Analysis of Skin Tissues with Different Coat Types in Cashmere Goats Across Stages of Hair Follicle Development
The study found that different genes are active in cashmere goats' hair growth stages, which can help improve cashmere production.
research MiRNA-24 downregulates KLF6 affecting STAT3 protein expression and phosphorylation regulating melanogenesis in cashmere goat coat
miRNA-24 affects goat coat color by controlling proteins involved in pigment production.
