Research
180-210 / 1000+ resultsresearch Structure and biochemistry of mammalian hard keratin
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 Regulation of hard α-keratin mechanics via control of intermediate filament hydration: matrix squeeze revisited
Hard α-keratins stay stiff in water because the surrounding matrix keeps them dehydrated and strong.
research 591 Chromatin architectural protein CTCF regulates terminal keratinocyte differentiation in the developing epidermis and hair follicles
CTCF protein is essential for skin and hair follicle development in mice.
research Characterization of the exocuticle a‐layer proteins of wool
The outer layer of Merino wool is rich in sulfur proteins, making it resistant to damage.
research A mechanism for topical cutaneous calcinosis
Epilation and DHT cause skin calcification by increasing ATP and calcium deposits.
research Modulation of sonic hedgehog, patched and patched-2 expression by epidermal growth factor signaling in mouse hair follicle formation
research Evidence for biological shaping of hair ice
A fungus is essential for forming and shaping hair ice on dead wood.
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 660 Complex cellular flows shape feather follicle topology
Cell movements and forces shape feather growth in chicken skin.
research Keratins 1 and 10 or homologues as regular constituents of inner root sheath and cuticle cells in the human hair follicle.
Keratins K1 and K10 are found in the inner root sheath and cuticle of human hair follicles.
research Defining the complex epithelia that comprise the canine claw with molecular markers of differentiation
Canine claws have complex structures with different keratin types, similar to hair and nails.
research Effects of conditioners on surface hardness of hair fibers: an investigation using atomic force microscopy.
Conditioners with PQ-10 soften the flat part of hair cuticles but harden the edges.
research Proopiomelanocortin expression in the skin during induced hair growth in mice
research Morphological and histological observations on the hair brush of Endoclita vietnamensis (Lepidoptera, Hepialidae)
The study identifies the pheromone gland's location and structure in Endoclita vietnamensis, aiding future pest control methods.
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.
research Chapter 3 Expression and Modification of Keratins During Terminal Differentiation of Mammalian Epidermis
Keratins change and are modified differently in skin layers and body parts.
research Coarse to Fine Hair Conversion Induced by Zinc in C57/6J Mice.
Zinc made mice's coarse hair turn into fine hair without affecting skin structure.
research Spiny keratoderma ‐ a demonstration of hair keratin and hair type keratinization
Spiny keratoderma may be ectopic hair formation on palms and soles.
research Immunolocalization of a Histidine-Rich Epidermal Differentiation Protein in the Chicken Supports the Hypothesis of an Evolutionary Developmental Link between the Embryonic Subperiderm and Feather Barbs and Barbules
A specific protein in chicken embryos links early skin layers to feather development.
research Differential sensitivity of epidermal cell subpopulations to β-catenin-induced ectopic hair follicle formation
Sebaceous glands can form new hair follicles when activated, but hair follicle bulges cannot.
research Decision letter: Hair follicle epidermal stem cells define a niche for tactile sensation
Hair follicle stem cells are crucial for touch sensation and proper nerve structure in mice.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
The study found that certain genes are important for hedgehog skin appendage development and immunity, with spines possibly evolving for protection and infection resistance.
research Activation of β-catenin signaling programs embryonic epidermis to hair follicle fate
Activating β-catenin can turn skin cells into hair follicles.
research Chiton integument: Ultrastructure of the sensory hairs of Mopalia muscosa (Mollusca: Polyplacophora)

The study found that mouse sweat glands develop before birth, mature after birth, and have specific keratin patterns.
research A null mutation in the cystatin M/E gene of ichq mice causes juvenile lethality and defects in epidermal cornification
A gene mutation in mice causes skin defects and early death.
research Increased expression of keratin 16 causes anomalies in cytoarchitecture and keratinization in transgenic mouse skin.
