960-990 / 1000+ resultsresearch Expression patterns of hair and epithelial keratins and transcription factors HOXC13, LEF1, and β‐catenin in a malignant pilomatricoma: a histological and immunohistochemical study
The malignant pilomatricoma showed strong epithelial keratin expression, suggesting it may not calcify.
research A group of type I keratin genes on human chromosome 17: characterization and expression.
Only one K16 gene on chromosome 17 makes a functional keratin protein.
research Analysis of proliferation, apoptosis and keratin expression in cultured normal and immortalized human buccal keratinocytes
SVpgC2a cells show abnormal growth and keratin changes, modeling early cancer development.
research Keratin K6irs is specific to the inner root sheath of hair follicles in mice and humans
Keratin K6irs is a marker for the inner root sheath of hair follicles in mice and humans.
research Assembly of Hair Keratins in Transfected Epithelial Cells
Mouse hair keratins mHa1 and mHb4 can't form a strong network on their own in cells.
research Keratin
Understanding how keratin structures in hair are arranged and interact is key for creating methods to extract and purify them.
research cDNA Cloning, Expression, and Assembly Characteristics of Mouse Keratin 16
Mouse and human keratin 16 can both form filaments, with differences likely due to the tail domain, not the helical domain.
research Hair Keratins and Hair Follicle–Specific Epithelial Keratins
Hair and follicle keratins differ in structure and expression, especially in cysteine content.
research K31 as a novel marker for clear secretory cells in human eccrine sweat glands
K31 can identify clear secretory cells in human sweat glands.
research Keratin expression in the human hair follicle
research The expanding significance of keratin intermediate filaments in normal and diseased epithelia
Keratin proteins are increasingly recognized as important for cell health and are linked to many diseases.
research Crosslinking structure of keratin. V. Number and type of crosslinks in microstructures of untreated and potassium cyanide treated human hair
Potassium cyanide treatment changes hair's disulfide bonds, making it more elastic.
research KRT16 wt Allele
Mutations in the KRT16 gene can cause skin and nail disorders.
research Crosslinking structure of keratin. V. Number and type of crosslinks in microstructures of untreated and potassium cyanide treated human hair
Potassium cyanide changes hair's disulfide bonds to monosulfide, affecting high-sulfur proteins more.
research Single-cell transcriptomics defines keratinocyte differentiation in avian scutate scales
The research identified two types of keratinocytes in chicken scales: one for hard scales and another for soft skin, with similarities to human skin differentiation.
research KRT72 wt Allele
KRT72 gene helps form hair.
research Analysis of heterogeneous reaction between reducing agents and keratin fibers using Raman spectroscopy and microspectrophotometry
The study found that thioglycolic acid breaks down hair bonds more consistently than l-cysteine, which is less damaging to hair.
research ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDIES OF HAIR AND WOOL
Hair and wool have complex microscopic structures with microfibrils and varying cystine content.
research [Immunohistochemical study on the keratin expression in generating rat hair tissues using anti-hair keratin monoclonal antibodies].
Hair germ cells differ from epidermal cells in keratin expression, and specific keratins form after hair differentiation.
research A novel purification procedure for keratin-associated proteins and keratin from human hair
A new method effectively separates keratin-associated proteins and keratin from human hair.
