810-840 / 1000+ results research Characterization of a 300 kbp Region of Human DNA Containing the Type II Hair Keratin Gene Domain
The research identified six functional hair keratin genes and four pseudogenes, providing insights into hair formation and gene organization.
research The Proteins of Normal and Aberrant Hair Keratins
Hair is mostly made of three protein types: helical, high-sulfur, and high-tyrosine.
research Morphological features of the general cover in long-haired cat breeds
Long-haired cats have thinner skin where hair is thicker, and all have unique collagen patterns.
research Evidence for Novel Functions of the Keratin Tail Emerging from a Mutation Causing Ichthyosis Hystrix
The keratin tail is crucial for skin structure and function.
research Analyses of histological and transcriptome differences in the skin of short-hair and long-hair rabbits
Hair length in rabbits is linked to differences in lipid metabolism and cell death.
research In-Situ Tensile Testing of Hair Fibers in An Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM)
Hair fibers break by cuticle cell slipping, shape changing, cuticle fraying, and surface cracking when stretched under specific conditions.
research GWASs Identify Genetic Loci Associated with Human Scalp Hair Whorl Direction
Certain genes influence the direction of hair whorls on the scalp.
research Gene that causes woolly hair revealed
Mutations in the P2RY5 gene cause hereditary woolly hair.
research A Hairy Paradox: Congenital Triangular Alopecia with a Central Hair Tuft
Some people with congenital triangular alopecia have a central tuft of hair in the bald patch, but the cause is unknown.
research Integrated miRNA-mRNA analysis reveals regulatory pathways underlying the curly fleece trait in Chinese tan sheep
Researchers found genes and microRNAs that control curly fleece in Chinese Tan sheep.

The man likely has tufted folliculitis causing painful, scarring hair loss.
research The keratin proteins and genes of wool and hair.
Keratin gene regulation was emerging, with a key transcription factor found to influence hair growth and gene expression.
research Upregulation of interfollicular epidermal and hair infundibulum β-catenin expression in Gsdma3 mutant mice
Mice with a Gsdma3 gene mutation have thicker skin and longer hair follicle openings due to increased β-catenin levels.
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.
