600-630 / 1000+ resultsresearch Ultrastructure of two types of glandular hairs of salvia farinacea benth during development
Capitate trichomes have more endoplasmic reticulum and vacuoles, while peltate trichomes have more plastids and larger subcuticular spaces.
research Hair structure anatomy and comparative anatomy1 1Dedicated to the memory of the late Dr. R. E. Rivett whose untimely death prevented his role in co-authorship.
Human hair is complex and grows in cycles starting from embryonic life.
research A Novel Type II Cytokeratin, mK6irs, is Expressed in the Huxley and Henle Layers of the Mouse Inner Root Sheath
A new protein, mK6irs, is found in specific hair layers and may help understand hair growth and diseases.
research Histology, lectin histochemistry and ultrastructure of interdigital gland in crossbred sheep
The interdigital gland in crossbred sheep is similar to skin and has specialized structures for secretion.
research Expression of COUP-TF-interacting protein 2 (CTIP2) in mouse skin during development and in adulthood
CTIP2 may help in skin development and maintenance.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Novel Tissue Mechanics-Guided Cellular Flows Enable the Evolution of Feather Follicles
Cellular flows and tissue mechanics guide feather follicle formation in birds.
research Cornification
Cornification is the process where living skin cells die to create a protective barrier, and problems with it can cause skin diseases.
research Convergent Evolution of Cysteine-Rich Keratins in Hard Skin Appendages of Terrestrial Vertebrates
Cysteine-rich keratins evolved independently in mammals, reptiles, and birds for hard skin structures like hair, claws, and feathers.
research Cryo-Electron Microscopy of Trichocyte (Hard α-Keratin) Intermediate Filaments Reveals a Low-Density Core
Trichocyte filaments have a low-density core and may include proteins for hair structure.
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 Novel tissue mechanics-guided cellular flows drive the formation of feather follicles
Feather follicles form through specific cellular flows and mechanical changes in the skin.
research The role of Glucosylceramides in Keratinocyte Differentiation and Epidermal Barrier Function
Glucosylceramides are essential for healthy skin and proper wound healing.
research Dermal-epidermal interactions—follicle-derived cell populations in the study of hair-growth mechanisms
