An ex vivo comparison of the tensile strengthening properties of protein derivatives on damaged hair [PDF]
, 2015 Conventional conditioning agents, cationic surfactants and polymers, are often limited in their ability to repair and strengthen the hair fibre, while protein-derived actives have been found to enhance the tensile strength of damaged hair.

FMI-43 is a permeant blocker of mechanosensitive ion channels in sensory neurons and inhibits behavioural responses to mechanical stimuli [PDF]
, 2007 The molecular identity and pharmacological properties of mechanically gated ion channels in sensory neurons are poorly understood. We show that FM1-43, a styryl dye used to fluorescently label cell membranes, permeates mechanosensitive ion channels in ...

Right Bundle Branch Block: An Uncommon Cardiotoxic Manifestation of Hair Dye Poisoning-A Case Report [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2014 Hair dye poisoning has been rising in incidence in the recent years. Apart from the commoner manifestations of upper airway edema, rhabdomyolysis and acute renal failure, cardiac toxicity, convulsions and sudden cardiac death are relatively rare ...

HPLC DETECTION OF SERUM AND URINARY PARAPHENYLENE DIAMINE (PPD) LEVEL AND ITS METABOLITES IN RELATION TO CARDIAC TOXICITY [PDF]
The Egyptian Journal of Forensic Sciences and Applied Toxicology, 2021 Hair dye poisoning is an emerging big problem in Upper Egypt. The main component of hair dye causing toxicity is para-phenylenediamine (PPD). Ingestion of PPD could be accidental or suicidal. After oral intake it is metabolized in the liver into N-mono- (

Actas Dermo-Sifiliográficas (English Edition), 2014 Hair plays a significant role in body image, and its appearance can be changed relatively easily without resort to surgical procedures. Cosmetics and techniques have therefore been used to change hair appearance since time immemorial. The cosmetics industry has developed efficient products that can be used on healthy hair or act on concomitant diseases

Prolactin delays hair regrowth in mice [PDF]
, 2006 Mammalian hair growth is cyclic, with hair-producing follicles alternating between active (anagen) and quiescent (telogen) phases. The timing of hair cycles is advanced in prolactin receptor (PRLR) knockout mice, suggesting that prolactin has a role in ...

Characterizing human vestibular sensory epithelia for experimental studies: new hair bundles on old tissue and implications for therapeutic interventions in ageing. [PDF]
, 2015 Balance disequilibrium is a significant contributor to falls in the elderly. The most common cause of balance dysfunction is loss of sensory cells from the vestibular sensory epithelia of the inner ear.
