Keratin 6a is important for quick wound healing from hair follicles.
research A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determination, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin.
Keratin expression reflects cell organization and differentiation, not causes it.
research Regulation of Keratin Gene Expression in Hair Follicle Differentiationa
Keratin gene regulation is similar across mammals, affecting hair follicle differentiation.

Disulfide bonds make keratin in hair stronger and tougher.
research Two Dogs with Juvenile-Onset Skin Diseases with Involvement of Extremities
The analyses helped identify different skin diseases in the two dogs.
research Pitx2, a β-catenin-regulated transcription factor, regulates the differentiation of outer root sheath cells cultured in vitro
Pitx2 helps outer root sheath cells differentiate but can't start hair growth on its own.
research 869 The specification of Merkel cell in the back skin and glabrous paw skin is controlled by FGFR2-meditated signaling
FGFR2 signaling controls Merkel cell formation in different skin regions.
research In brief
Pilomatricomas don't follow the usual hair follicle cell differentiation process.
research Unzipping the cuticle of the human hair shaft to obtain micron/nano keratin filaments
Researchers extracted tiny keratin filaments from human hair by unzipping its outer layer.
research Single cell transcriptomics of human epidermis reveals basal stem cell transition states
Basal stem cells in the skin have distinct types that are crucial for skin structure and health.
research Ultraviolet-Enhanced Trichoscopy—A New Tool to Assess Pili Annulati
UV-enhanced trichoscopy helps diagnose hair shaft disorders like pili annulati.
research Genetic and Environmental Factors that Control Merkel Cell Development and Survival
Notch signaling stops Merkel cell development, and hair follicles help maintain them after skin injury.
research Chelators Depigment and Inorease Elasticity of Mink Skin
Certain chelators lighten mink skin and hair, increase skin elasticity, and disrupt hair growth without affecting fur quality.
research Apoptosis and keratin intermediate filaments
research Structural interspecies variability of mammals' hairs
Mammal hairs have different internal structures.
research Histological and immunohistochemical studies of excisional wounds in the rat with special reference to the involvement of the hair follicles in the wound healing process
Hair follicles help wounds heal faster, especially in active growth phase skin.
research Tactile and hair-hair friction behavior of hair fibers
Hair feels different when touched and rubs together in various ways.
research Stimulation of ectodermal organ development by Ectodysplasin-A1
Ectodysplasin-A1 is crucial for developing hair, teeth, and glands.
research Identification of the C-terminal tail domain of AHF/trichohyalin as the critical site for modulation of the keratin filamentous meshwork in the keratinocyte
The C-terminal tail of AHF/trichohyalin is essential for organizing keratin filaments in keratinocytes.
research Disorganization of Transcriptional Regulation and Alteration of Keratin Family Gene Expression in Hairy Ear Mice
The hairy ear mutation in mice is linked to changes in gene expression affecting hair growth.
