870-900 / 1000+ results research The complement of native α-keratin polypeptides of hair-forming cells: A subset of eight polypeptides that differ from epithelial cytokeratins
research Characterization and Localization of Side Population Cells in Mouse Skin
Mouse skin has special cells in the epidermis that decrease with age and are linked to keratinocyte stem cells.
research Outer root sheath keratinization in anagen and catagen of the mammalian hair follicle. A seventh distinct type of keratinization in the hair follicle: trichilemmal keratinization.
Trichilemmal keratinization is a unique process in hair follicles where the outer root sheath turns into keratin without a specific layer.
research Canine hair‐follicle keratinocytes enriched with bulge cells have the highly proliferative characteristic of stem cells
Canine hair follicles contain stem-like cells with high growth potential.
research Genetic and biochemical aspects of the synthesis of keratin by hair follicles
Gene expression regulates keratin production for normal hair growth.
research Cytokeratin 19 expression in usual cutaneous carcinomas
CK 19 expression is higher in more severe skin cancers.
research Localization of Merkel cells at hairless and hairy human skin sites using keratin 18
Merkel cells are more densely found in hairless skin areas like palms and soles.
research 840 Early and late matrix progenitors form the terminally differentiated cell layers of the hair follicle
Early and late matrix progenitors in hair follicles create different cell layers, with early ones forming the companion layer and later ones forming the inner root sheath and hair shaft.
research Keratinization of outer root sheath cells is prevented by contact with inner root sheath of rat hair follicles
research Dermal papilla-induced hair differentiation of adult epithelial stem cells from human skin
Dermal papilla cells help skin stem cells grow into hair.
research Ultrastructural Resemblance of Basal Cell Epithelioma to Primary Epithelial Germ
Basal cell epithelioma resembles fetal hair follicles, not adult or fetal skin.
research A new in vitro culture system to produce a fully differentiated epidermis from human hair follicle outer root sheath cells
Researchers developed a method to grow skin-like tissue from hair cells.
research Corneal epithelial‐like transdifferentiation of hair follicle stem cells is mediated by pax6 and β‐catenin/Lef‐1
Hair follicle stem cells can become corneal-like cells with the help of pax6.
research Induction of hair follicles using neonatal mouse dermis and human keratinocytes: relevance for improved burn wound treatments
Efficient culture methods are needed to keep human keratinocytes undifferentiated for hair follicle induction.
research Structural and biochemical changes underlying a keratoderma-like phenotype in mice lacking suprabasal AP1 transcription factor function
Inhibiting AP1 in mice skin causes structural changes and weakens the skin barrier.
research On the Regulation of Hair Keratin Expression: Lessons from Studies in Pilomatricomas
research The Immune Functions of Keratinocytes in Skin Wound Healing
Keratinocytes help heal skin wounds by interacting with immune cells and producing substances that kill pathogens.
research The in vitro Assembly of Hair Follicle Keratins: Comparison of Cortex and Companion Layer Keratins
Different conditions affect how hair proteins assemble, and certain mutations can change their structure.
research Classic versus non‐classic: A survival Kit for life in the skin
Melanocytes in different body areas have evolved to perform specific functions based on their location.
research Keratin function and regulation in tissue homeostasis and pathogenesis
Keratin is crucial for keeping skin cells healthy and its changes can lead to diseases and affect cell behavior.
research Phenotypic modulation of human hair matrix cells (trichocytes) by environmental influence in vitro and in vivo.
Human hair cells can change based on their environment, especially interactions with certain skin cells.
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 Histological features of melasma lesions and the expression of keratin 10
Melasma skin has more melanin and signs of aging, with strong CK10 expression linked to cell differentiation and aging.
