570-600 / 1000+ results research "Curly" Wood and Tiger Tails
Tiger tail bands in hair are caused by wavy hair fibers with melanin, unlike straight fibers in normal hair.
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 Expression of hair-related keratins in a soft epithelium: Subpopulations of human and mouse dorsal tongue keratinocytes express keratin markers for hair-, skin- and esophageal-types of differentiation
Hoxc13 is important for hair and tongue development by controlling hair keratin genes.
research In vivo effects of epidermal growth factor on epidermal pattern formation and hair follicle initiation in the marsupial bandicoot Isoodon macrourus
Epidermal growth factor disrupts hair and gland formation in bandicoots.
research The heart of the hair fiber: How the inner structure of the coat reflects adaptive variation across color, sex, age, and body region in dromedary camels (Camelus dromedarius)
Camel hair structure, not color, helps camels stay cool in the desert.
research The structure of hair and follicles of mice carrying the naked (N) gene
Mice with the naked gene have missing or abnormal hair cells.
research Fine Structure of Perifollicular Nerve Endings in Human Hair
research Local structure of human hair spatially resolved by sub-micron X-ray beam
Human hair has a new region with ordered filaments and the cuticle contains β-keratin sheets.
research Immunohistochemical staining characteristics of epidermal appendages (hair follicles and eccrine sweat glands) to anti-epidermal keratin antisera
Hair follicles and sweat glands show different keratin staining patterns.
research Distribution of keratin and associated proteins in the epidermis of monotreme, marsupial, and placental mammals
Monotreme and marsupial skin proteins show primitive features and species-specific differences compared to placental mammals.
research Ultrastructural visualization of cross-linked protein features in epidermal appendages
Cross-linked proteins help maintain the structure of hair, feathers, and hagfish teeth.
research Histochemistry of the porcine pilosebaceous unit
Porcine and human pilosebaceous units are very similar.
research Mesenchymal cell specific deletion of Tsc2 regulates hair follicle development and patterning
TSC2 is crucial for proper hair follicle development and patterning.
research A histochemical examination of the epidermis of the southern elephant seal (Mirounga leonina L.) during the telogen stage of hair growth
The southern elephant seal's skin layer helps waterproof the skin by being tightly connected to hair shafts.
research Banded Scalp Hair with an Unusual Glistening Appearance in a Teenager: A Quiz
A teenager's hair with alternating white and dark bands, known as Pili annulati, is a genetic condition that is usually harmless and often considered attractive.
research The skin of primates. XLI. The skin of the silver marmoset—Callithrix (= Mico) Argentata
The silver marmoset's skin is thin, lacks pigment cells, and has unique features like keratinized spines and specialized glands.
research Sequence and Expression of Murine Type I Hair Keratins mHa2 and mHa3
mHa2 and mHa3 keratins have different structures and roles in mouse hair and tongue tissues.
research Keratin formation in the hair follicle
Keratin fibrils in hair form and stop growing at specific points in the follicle.
research Molecular signaling in feather morphogenesis
Feather growth and regeneration involve complex patterns, stem cells, and evolutionary insights.
research The surface and internal features of pubic hair: A comparative study with those of scalp hair
Pubic hair has a thicker, more protective outer layer than scalp hair, possibly due to evolution.
research Location of keratin-associated proteins in developing fiber cuticle cells using immunoelectron microscopy
Keratin-associated proteins are part of the developing hair fiber cuticle.
research Sexually dimorphic sail feathers in the Mandarin duck as a model for lifelong developmental modulation
Mandarin duck sail feathers change with seasons due to hormones and genetic regulation.
research Spangled hair in siblings
Two siblings had a rare hair condition with banded hair, which doesn't need treatment.
research Serine-rich ultra high sulfur protein gene expression in murine hair and skin during the hair cycle
research Gap junctions in Turing-type periodic feather pattern formation
