research Identification of reptilian genes encoding hair keratin-like proteins suggests a new scenario for the evolutionary origin of hair
Reptiles have genes similar to hair proteins, suggesting hair's genetic origins predate mammals.
research Selenium and its Inorganic Compounds [BAT Value Documentation, 2011]
Selenium is essential for health, but too much or too little can cause problems; blood selenium levels are a good measure of intake.
research The mammary hair of Monodelphis domestica and homology of the mammary pilosebacous unit
Mammary glands evolved from hair organs in Monodelphis domestica.
research Cell death by cornification
Cornification is how skin cells die to form the protective outer layer of skin, hair, and nails.
research Epidermal Notch signalling: differentiation, cancer and adhesion
Notch signalling helps skin cells differentiate and prevents tumors.

research Making the head: Caspases in life and death
Caspases are enzymes important for both cell death and various non-lethal cell functions, affecting head development and hair growth, with different caspases playing specific roles.
research Mutations in Homocysteine Metabolism Genes Increase Keratin N-Homocysteinylation and Damage in Mice
Genetic mutations that disrupt homocysteine breakdown lead to increased damage in mouse hair keratin.
