Hair keratins evolved from ancient proteins, diversifying through gene changes, crucial for forming claws and later hair in mammals.
research Topographical and Tribological Characteristics of Asian Human Hair Cuticles
Hair damage increases significantly with higher temperatures and longer heating times.
research Cyclic hair-loss and regrowth in transgenic mice overexpressing an intermediate filament gene.
Mice with extra sheep genes had hair that fell out and regrew in cycles.
research Regeneration of Hair Follicles Is Modulated by Flightless I (Flii) in a Rodent Vibrissa Model
Flightless I protein affects hair growth, with low levels delaying it and high levels increasing hair length in rodents.
research Ultrastructural localization of hair keratin homologs in the claw of the lizard Anolis carolinensis
Lizard claws have hair-like keratins similar to those in mammals.
research Exogen involves gradual release of the hair club fibre in the vibrissa follicle model
Hair sheds gradually from the follicle, with readiness to shed indicated by less attachment material.
