Healthy skin prevents water loss and protects against threats.
research Structure and function of the skin, hair and nails
Understanding skin structure and function is key to managing skin diseases and improving quality of life.
research Localization of Merkel cells at hairless and hairy human skin sites using keratin 18
Merkel cells are more densely found in hairless skin areas like palms and soles.
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 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 Gross morphology and ultrastructural characterization of the skin in Yuyi hairless mice(Mus musculus)
Yuyi hairless mice lose hair after birth, develop thick, loose skin with folds, and show disorganized skin structure as they age.
research The Story of the Finest Armor: Developmental Aspects of Reptile Skin
Reptile skin protects and prevents water loss, helping them adapt to land.
research 862 Defining the molecular signature of the hair follicle dermal sheath and its functional requirement for hair cycle progression during catagen
The hair follicle dermal sheath is essential for hair shedding and needs to communicate with the outer root sheath for normal hair growth cycles.
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 Developmental characteristics of cutaneous telocytes in late embryos of the silky fowl
Telocytes in silky fowl embryos develop distinct features and connections by the 20th day of incubation.
research Tight junctions form a barrier in porcine hair follicles
Tight junctions create a barrier in pig hair follicles that controls what can enter the skin.
