research BRCA2 in abscission
The tumor suppressor BRCA2 helps in cell division by bringing key proteins to the area where cells split.
research Haplotypes spanning centromeric regions reveal persistence of large blocks of archaic DNA
Ancient DNA blocks are still present in human genomes, possibly due to advantages they provide.
research The mouse hairy ears mutation exhibits an extended growth (anagen) phase in hair follicles and altered Hoxc gene expression in the ears
The mouse hairy ears mutation causes longer ear hair due to changes in gene expression.
research Keratin network modifications lead to the mechanical stiffening of the hair follicle fiber
Changes in keratin make hair follicles stiffer.

Small proline-rich proteins and trichohyalin help make epithelial tissues tougher and more flexible.
research De novo filament formation by human hair keratins K85 and K35 follows a filament development pattern distinct from cytokeratin filament networks
Human hair keratins K85 and K35 create unique filament patterns important for early hair formation.
research Dissection of a Complex Enhancer Element: Maintenance of Keratinocyte Specificity but Loss of Differentiation Specificity
Keratinocyte gene expression is controlled by multiple modules with specific binding sites.
research Hoxc13 Expression Pattern in Cashmere Goat Skin During Hair Follicle Development
Hoxc13 gene expression and skin thickness change similarly during cashmere goat hair follicle development.
research The cell membrane complex: Three related but different cellular cohesion components of mammalian hair fibers
The cell membrane complex in mammalian hair has three distinct types with different structures and chemical properties.
research Quantification of hair follicle parameters using computer image analysis: A comparison of androgenetic alopecia with normal scalp biopsies
Hair follicles are smaller in people with androgenetic alopecia compared to those with normal scalps.
research Acral lymphomatoid papulosis
A woman had a rare skin condition with recurring painful nodules that heal in 6 weeks, often without needing treatment.
research Results of 60-second timed hair counts in women between the ages of 20–60 years
The 60-second timed hair count is a reliable and simple way to measure hair shedding at home, showing older women tend to shed more hair than younger women.
research Alopecia Areata is associated with MICA and an extended HLA haplotype
Certain genes are linked to the risk of developing Alopecia Areata.
research Localization patterns of collagens during growth of human scalp hair
research Probing keratinocyte and differentiation specificity of the human K5 promoter in vitro and in transgenic mice.
The K5 promoter controls gene expression in skin cells, with specific DNA segments crucial for targeting and regulation.
research 1335 Maintenance of epidermal progenitor function through the mRNA degradation and translation pathways
The protein DDX6 helps keep skin cells renewing properly by controlling the production of certain other proteins and breaking down those that cause cells to mature too quickly.
research Dynamic expression of the zinc-finger transcription factor Trps1 during hair follicle morphogenesis and cycling
Trps1 plays a key role in hair follicle development and cycling.
research The structure of human trichohyalin : potential multiple roles as a functional ef-hand-like calcium-binding protein, a cornified cell envelope precursor, and an intermediate filament-associated (cross-linking) protein
Trichohyalin is a versatile protein involved in hair and skin structure.
research The role of disulfide bond formation in the structural transition observed in the intermediate filaments of developing hair
Disulfide bonds are crucial for hair structure during keratinization.
research The systemic wrinkled skin phenotype involves aberrant expression and variation of genes related to the oxidative stress and extracellular matrix in Xiang pigs
Wrinkled skin in Xiang pigs is linked to gene changes related to oxidative stress and the extracellular matrix.
research The inconsistent regulation of HOXC13 on different keratins and the regulation mechanism on HOXC13 in cashmere goat (Capra hircus)
The HOXC13 gene affects different hair proteins in cashmere goats in varied ways and is controlled by a feedback loop and other factors.
