The outer layer of Merino wool is rich in sulfur proteins, making it resistant to damage.
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 Beauty is skin deep: the fascinating biology of the epidermis and its appendages.
The biology of skin and hair is complex and not fully understood.
research LB1081 Three-dimensional imaging of tight junction-network across multiple layers of human epidermis by array tomography using backscattered electron-mode scanning electron microscopy
The study found that tight junctions reach the top layer of the skin's stratum granulosum, not just the second top layer as previously thought.
research Colocalization of Cystatin M/E and its Target Proteases Suggests a Role in Terminal Differentiation of Human Hair Follicle and Nail
Cystatin M/E helps in the final stages of hair and nail formation by controlling certain enzymes.
