930-960 / 1000+ resultsresearch Macrofibril Formation
research Structural changes in trichocyte keratin intermediate filaments during keratinization
Keratin structure changes during keratinization, but the exact model remains uncertain.
research Disulfide Cross-Linked Network Structure of Intermediate Filament and Matrix in Hair and Wool Cortices
Hair and wool strength is affected by the number and type of bonds in their protein structures, with hair having more protein aggregates than wool.
research Cortical cell types and intermediate filament arrangements correlate with fiber curvature in Japanese human hair
Hair curvature in Japanese people is linked to specific cell types and filament arrangements in the hair cortex.
research A general mathematical model for the in vitro assembly dynamics of intermediate filament proteins
The model shows that filament flexibility and amino acid differences affect how fast intermediate filament proteins assemble.
research Intermediate filaments: regulation of gene expression and assembly
Intermediate filaments are crucial for cell structure and function, regulated by specific genes and proteins.
research Dynamic ultrastructural changes of the connective tissue sheath of human hair follicles during hair cycle
The connective tissue around hair follicles changes structure throughout the hair cycle.
research Structural Transition of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments During Development in the Hair Follicle
research Spatial organization within a niche as a determinant of stem-cell fate
research The cell membrane complex: Three related but different cellular cohesion components of mammalian hair fibers
The cell membrane complex in mammalian hair has three distinct types with different structures and chemical properties.
research Keratin formation in the hair follicle
Keratin fibrils in hair form and stop growing at specific points in the follicle.
research Shaping Up Mitochondrion in Motion
Mitochondria change shape to meet energy needs during cell movement.
research Bidirectional binding property of high glycine–tyrosine keratin-associated protein contributes to the mechanical strength and shape of hair
High glycine–tyrosine keratin-associated proteins help make hair strong and maintain its shape.
research Three-dimensional microvascular organization around hair follicles as revealed by FITC-dextran injection method
research Three-dimensional architecture of macrofibrils in the human scalp hair cortex
Human hair has a complex, variable structure with a consistent matrix and double-twist pattern.
research The structure of human trichohyalin. Potential multiple roles as a functional EF-hand-like calcium-binding protein, a cornified cell envelope precursor, and an intermediate filament-associated (cross-linking) protein
Trichohyalin helps in hair and skin cell structure and function by binding calcium and linking proteins.
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 Ultrastructural Localization of Hair Keratins in Human Scalp Hair Shafts as Revealed by Rapid-Freezing Immunocytochemistry.
Hair keratins are mainly on macrofibrils in the cortex and in the endocuticle in the cuticle.
research The Histology of Keratin Fibers
research Histologische Untersuchungen an der bindegewebigen Wurzelscheide des Sinushaarfollikels bei der Katze: das Sinuskissen
The "sinuskissen" in cat hair follicles is mostly connective tissue, affecting fluid flow.
research Study of the keratinization process in human hair follicle by X-ray microdiffraction.
Hair structure forms the same way inside and outside the body.
research Three-dimensional modelling of interchain sequence similarities and differences in the coiled-coil segments of keratin intermediate filament heterodimers highlight features important in assembly
Keratin heterodimers are preferred for their specific and structural advantages.
research New aspects of the structure of human hair on the basis of optical microscopic observations of disassembled hair parts.
Human hair's strength comes from a honeycomb-like structure and macrofibrils.
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 Compartmentalized organization: a common and required feature of stem cell niches?
Compartmentalized organization might be crucial for stem cells to effectively respond to growth or injury.
research Existence of various structural zones in keratinous tissues revealed by X-ray microdiffraction
Keratinous tissues have multiple structural layers, including ordered keratin and lipid granules.
research Hierarchical patterning modes orchestrate hair follicle morphogenesis
Hair follicle patterns form through a mix of self-organization and signaling interactions.
research How a Bird Gets Its Feathers: Insights from Chromatin Looping
Feather patterns are influenced by enhancers and chromatin looping, and the structure of protein complexes important for hair growth has been detailed.
research Order from disorder: Self-organization in mammalian hair patterning
Hair patterns in mice are controlled by both a global system dependent on Fz6 and a local self-organizing system.
