research Mineral, trace element, and toxic metal concentration in hair from dogs with idiopathic epilepsy compared to healthy controls
Dogs with epilepsy have different hair mineral levels than healthy dogs, possibly due to epilepsy or its treatment.
research The structure of the cornified claw sheath in the domesticated cat (Felis catus): implications for the claw‐shedding mechanism and the evolution of cornified digital end organs
Cat claws stay sharp by shedding their outer layer through microcracks formed during activities.
research Cornified Epithelial Teeth of Jawless Vertebrates Contain Proteins Similar to Keratin-Associated Proteins of Mammalian Skin Appendages
Jawless vertebrates have teeth proteins similar to those in mammalian hair and nails.
research 1426 Deletion of hoxc13 in frogs reveals key steps in the molecular evolution of cornified skin appendages
Deleting the Hoxc13 gene in frogs shows its crucial role in developing skin structures similar to hair.
research Localization and Expression of Cornifin-α/SPRR1 in Mouse Epidermis, Anagen Follicles, and Skin Neoplasms

research Expression of epidermal keratins and filaggrin during human fetal skin development.
Keratins and filaggrin change as fetal skin develops, marking key stages of skin formation.
research Embryonic keratinization in vertebrates in relation to land colonization
Keratinization in embryos helped vertebrates adapt to land by forming a protective skin barrier.
