150-180 / 1000+ resultsresearch Immunological characteristics and histological distribution of human hair fibrous proteins studied with anti-hair keratin monoclonal antibodies HKN-2, HKN-4, and HKN-6.
Some hair proteins are specific to hair, while others are also found in skin cells.
research Location of keratin-associated proteins in developing fiber cuticle cells using immunoelectron microscopy
Keratin-associated proteins are part of the developing hair fiber cuticle.
research Some electron microscope observations on hardening in the human hair follicle
The hair follicle structure is more complex than thought, with new findings on protein formation.
research Stabilization of Hemidesmosomal Proteins: A Possible Key Contributor to Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway Action in the Skin
Neutrophils quickly move to the site of skin injury.
research Evolution of Trichocyte Keratins
Hair keratins evolved from ancient proteins, diversifying through gene changes, crucial for forming claws and later hair in mammals.
research TGF‐β and HSP70 profiles during transformation of yak hair follicles from the anagen to catagen stage
TGF-β2 helps yak hair follicles enter the regression phase, while HSP70 tries to prevent it.
research Characterisation of an Ovine Keratin Associated Protein (KAP) Gene, Which Would Produce a Protein Rich in Glycine and Tyrosine, but Lacking in Cysteine
A new sheep gene, KRTAP36-1, may help breed sheep with better wool by reducing prickle factor.
research Nucleation and growth of macrofibrils in trichocyte (hard-α) keratins
Sheet formation is key to macrofibril structure differences in wool.
research Genome-wide identification, characterization, and expression analysis of keratin genes (KRTs) family in yak (Bos grunniens)
Scientists found 53 keratin genes in yaks that are important for hair growth and share similarities with those in other animals.
research Trichohyalin: Presence in the Granular Layer and Stratum Corneum of Normal Human Epidermis
Trichohyalin is also found in the outer layers of normal human skin.
research The human keratins: biology and pathology
Keratins are crucial for cell stability, wound healing, and cancer diagnosis.
research Suprabasal change and subsequent formation of disulfide-stabilized homo- and hetero-dimers of keratins during esophageal epithelial differentiation
Keratins K4 and K13 form stable dimers in mature esophageal cells, aiding cell stability.
research Expression characteristics of BMP2, BMPR-IA and Noggin in different stages of hair follicle in yak skin
BMP2 and BMPR-IA may stop hair growth while Noggin may encourage it in yak skin.
research Structure and biochemistry of mammalian hard keratin
research Variation in the ovine trichohyalin gene and its association with wool curvature
Variation in the TCHH gene affects wool curliness in sheep.
research Comparative proteomic analyses using iTRAQ-labeling provides insights into fiber diversity in sheep and goats
The research found specific proteins that affect fiber characteristics and hair growth in sheep and goats.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Clinical Snippets
A bull with a gene mutation was asymptomatic, synthetic retinoids cause hair loss, and new therapeutic targets were identified for skin diseases.
research Structure and site of expression of a murine type II hair keratin
A specific type II hair keratin was identified and found in hair cortex and tongue cells.
research Structures of three polycystic kidney disease-like domains fromClostridium histolyticumcollagenases ColG and ColH
The study concludes that certain domains in Clostridium histolyticum enzymes are structurally unique, bind calcium to become more stable, and play distinct roles in breaking down collagen, with potential applications in medicine and drug delivery.
research Binding Interactions of Keratin-Based Hair Fiber Extract to Gold, Keratin, and BMP-2
Keratin from hair binds well to gold and BMP-2, useful for bone repair.
research Expression of Potential Dermal Progenitor Cell Markers in the Tumour and Stroma of Skin Adnexal Malignant and Benign Tumours
