Research
390-420 / 1000+ resultsresearch Structure of the sinus hair follicle in the big‐clawed shrew, Sorex unguiculatus
The big-clawed shrew's sinus hair follicles are highly specialized for sensing vibrations.
research Cell death by cornification
Cornification is how skin cells die to form the protective outer layer of skin, hair, and nails.
research The concept of the onychodermis (specialized nail mesenchyme): an embryological assessment and a comparative analysis with the hair follicle
The onychodermis helps anchor the nail bed and may aid in nail formation.
research Trichohyalin: A structural protein of hair, tongue, nail, and epidermis
research Cornification in reptilian epidermis occurs through the deposition of keratin‐associated beta‐proteins (beta‐keratins) onto a scaffold of intermediate filament keratins
Reptile skin hardens by layering beta-proteins on keratin.
research A highly resistant structure between the cuticle and the cortex of human hair. II . CARB , a penetration barrier
CARB is a strong barrier in human hair that prevents dye penetration.
research Silk secretion from tarantula feet revisited: alleged spigots are probably chemoreceptors
Tarantula feet likely have chemoreceptors, not silk-producing parts.
research Characteristic intraepidermal nerve fibre endings of the intervibrissal fur in the mystacial pad of the rat: morphological details revealed by intravital methylene blue staining and the zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide technique
Methylene blue staining effectively highlights detailed nerve structures in rat fur.
research Pruritic Hyperkeratotic Facial Papules
A 34-year-old woman had itchy black bumps on her face due to a condition called trichostasis spinulosa.
research Molecular and Cellular Characterization of Avian Reticulate Scales Implies the Evo–Devo Novelty of Skin Appendages in Foot Sole
Bird foot scales develop differently and can repair but not fully regenerate due to the lack of specialized stem cell areas.
research The targeted overexpression of a Claudin mutant in the epidermis of transgenic mice elicits striking epidermal and hair follicle abnormalities
research Keratinization of sheath and calamus cells in developing and regenerating feathers
Feathers become harder as they develop due to a change in keratin type.
research Pili Trianguli et Canaliculi Is a Defect of Inner Root Sheath Keratinization
The hair defect is due to abnormal inner root sheath keratinization.
research Morphogenesis of the hair follicle during catagen
research Trichostasis spinulosa: itchy follicular papules in young adults
Trichostasis spinulosa causes itchy bumps on young adults' skin.
research PEDICULOSIS CAPITIS WITH A RARE COMPLICATION OF CICATRICIAL ALOPECIA: A CASE REPORT
A 6-year-old girl with head lice developed scarring hair loss but improved with treatment.
research TARSAL CONTACT CHEMOSENSORY HAIRS OF THE LARGE WHITE BUTTERFLY PIERIS BRASSICAE AND THEIR POSSIBLE RÔLE IN OVIPOSITION BEHAVIOUR
B-type hairs on female butterfly legs help them choose where to lay eggs.
research Characteristic intraepidermal nerve fibre endings of the intervibrissal fur in the mystacial pad of the rat: morphological details revealed by intravital methylene blue staining and the zinc iodide‐osmium tetroxide technique
Methylene blue staining effectively reveals detailed nerve structures in rat snouts.
research Characterization of sciellin, a precursor to the cornified envelope of human keratinocytes
Sciellin is a protein that helps form protective layers in skin, hair, and nails.
research The infected hairs of tinea capitis due to Microsporum canis: Demonstration of uniqueness of the hair cuticle by scanning electron microscopy
The hair cuticle acts as a barrier against fungal infection, which occurs only deep within the hair follicle.
research The cell membrane complex: Three related but different cellular cohesion components of mammalian hair fibers
The cell membrane complex in mammalian hair has three distinct types with different structures and chemical properties.
research Did You Ever See a Creeping Hair?
A young girl's foot lesion was actually a rare condition caused by a hair fragment under the skin, not a parasite.
research Structural and Immunocytochemical Characterization of Keratinization in Vertebrate Epidermis and Epidermal Derivatives
Vertebrate skin evolved to be more specialized and complex, especially in land animals.
research Central trichoptilosis with onycholysis
Hair splitting and nail detachment are linked conditions.
research Differential Expression of Genes Encoding a Cysteine-Rich Keratin Family in the Hair Cuticle
research Vainas peripilares
The girl's "dandruff" was actually harmless hair casts, not a hygiene issue.
research TRICHOSTASIS SPINULOSA
Trichostasis spinulosa mainly affects the nose, with many tiny hairs in one follicle, possibly influenced by hormones and sunlight.
research Epithelial barrier function: assembly and structural features of the cornified cell envelope
The cornified cell envelope forms a protective barrier in skin and hair, using specific proteins and lipids to maintain effectiveness.
research Histochemical observation of the cell membrane complex of hair.
The Cell Membrane Complex in hair has both water-attracting and water-repelling layers.
