Ectodermal dysplasia causes various symptoms and early treatment is important for eye, dental, and skin issues.
research Microencapsulated cell tracking
Microencapsulation helps protect and track therapeutic cells, showing promise for treating various diseases, but more work is needed to improve the technology.
research Cornification in reptilian epidermis occurs through the deposition of keratin‐associated beta‐proteins (beta‐keratins) onto a scaffold of intermediate filament keratins
Reptile skin hardens by layering beta-proteins on keratin.

Human scalp hair on mice can effectively monitor mercury exposure.
research Structural changes in the trichocyte intermediate filaments accompanying the transition from the reduced to the oxidized form
Oxidation changes the structure of hair protein filaments, causing them to compact and rearrange.
research Investigation of the damage on the outermost hair surface using ToF‐SIMS and XPS
Bleaching hair causes significant damage by breaking down proteins and fatty acids.
research Genetic and molecular aspects of androgenetic alopecia
Androgenetic alopecia is mainly caused by genetic factors and increased androgen activity, leading to hair follicle miniaturization.

research Changes in the Molecular Structure of Hair in Insulin-Dependent Diabetes
Insulin-dependent diabetes alters hair's molecular structure, making it useful for studying diabetes effects.
research Understanding breakage in curly hair
Curly hair breaks due to mechanical damage and environmental factors, not chemical makeup, and needs ongoing care to prevent breakage.
research Polymorphism of CAG and GGN repeats of androgen receptor gene in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Longer GGN repeats in the androgen receptor gene are linked to polycystic ovary syndrome.

Giant axonal neuropathy changes the structure of keratin in human hair.
research Aromatic C-nitrosation of a bioactive molecule. Nitrosation of minoxidil
Minoxidil reacts to nitrosation 7 times more than phenol, mainly due to its -NH₂ groups, leading to the creation of N-nitrosominoxidil.
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.
