900-930 / 1000+ resultsresearch The extraction and characterization of human nail keratin
Human nails contain both skin and hair keratins, each needing different extraction methods.
research Experimental Modulation of the Differentiated Phenotype of Keratinocytes from Epidermis and Hair Follicle Outer Root Sheath and Matrix Cells
ORS and hair matrix cells balance growth and differentiation better than normal keratinocytes, with human dermal fibroblasts crucial for proper differentiation.
research Increased rate of hair keratin gene loss in the cetacean lineage
Cetaceans lost hair genes to adapt to water.
research Nucleic acid-induced chemokine expression in keratinocytes: Implications for skin inflammation
Nucleic acids trigger chemokine production in skin cells, affecting skin inflammation.

research Expression of Basement Membrane Proteins and Interstitial Collagens in Dermal Papillae of Human Hair Follicles
research Nestin as a marker of unipotent epithelial progenitor cells differentiate into outer root sheath keratinocytes in embryonic and adult hair follicles
Nestin-expressing cells turn into a specific type of skin cell in hair follicles during development and in adults.
research Editor's evaluation: Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Hairlessness in mammals is due to complex genetic changes in both genes and regulatory regions.

Different ethnic hair types have unique nanoscopic and molecular features despite having the same basic keratin structure.
research The toughening transition in hair keratin
The observed "toughening" in keratin was actually due to water evaporation, not a real change in keratin.
research Water distribution in human hair microstructure elucidated by spin contrast variation small-angle neutron scattering
The technique showed that human hair has two main parts, with 68% being rigid and the rest flexible, and water swelling affects its structure.
