PIXE is an effective method to analyze hair's elemental composition.
research Acquired Progressive Kinking of the Hair
Curly hair in certain scalp areas can be an early sign of hair loss.
research Autosomal recessive woolly hair syndrome: a series of eight patients in an Indian population
Autosomal recessive woolly hair is rare and involves tightly coiled hair without other health issues.
research MOLECULAR AND CELLULAR BASIS OF EXOGEN AND ANAGEN INDUCTION
Hair growth and shedding involve specific cell changes and gene roles.
research Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Both gene and non-gene areas of DNA evolved to make some mammals hairless.
research Atrichia with papular lesions resulting from a novel insertion mutation in the human hairless gene
Researchers found a new mutation causing total hair loss from birth.
research Uncombable hair syndrome and beyond
Uncombable hair syndrome causes frizzy hair and can affect the nervous system, eyes, and ears, often co-occurring with other hair, skin, nail, and teeth conditions, and is linked to three specific gene mutations.
research Cyclical Changes in Rat Vibrissa Follicles Maintained In Vitro
Rat vibrissa follicles are useful for studying hair growth cycles, especially the transition from pro-anagen to anagen.
research Dynamic expression patterns of tenascin, proteoglycans, and cell adhesion molecules during human hair follicle morphogenesis
Specific proteins and molecules play key roles in the development of human hair follicles.
research The naked truth: Sphynx and Devon Rex cat breed mutations in KRT71
Sphynx cats are hairless and Devon Rex cats have curly hair due to specific genetic mutations.
research Single-cell transcriptomics reveals lineage trajectory of human scalp hair follicle and informs mechanisms of hair graying
The study found new details about human hair growth and suggests that preventing a specific biological pathway could potentially treat hair graying.
research Three-row stereocilia model predicts mammalian hair bundle behavior
The model explains how mammal ear hair cells respond to sound and adapt.
research Pili annulati with fragility: Electron microscopic findings of a case
The study found that hair fragility in Pili annulati may be caused by cavities and damage within the hair shafts.
research Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Hairless mammals have genetic changes in both their protein-coding and regulatory sequences related to hair.
research Four murine monoclonal antibodies specific for the inner root sheath in the human hair follicle
Four antibodies were developed to help study hair follicle cell differentiation.
research Loose anagen hair syndrome
Loose anagen hair syndrome causes easily shed hair but usually improves with time.
research Hair Physiology and Grooming
Hair is complex, varies in type, and plays a big role in attractiveness and culture.
research Trichoscopic findings of androgenetic alopecia and their association with disease severity
Hair thickness differences help diagnose hair loss severity.
