30-60 / 1000+ results research Hard Keratin IF and Associated Proteins
research Immunolocalization of junctional proteins in human hairs indicates that the membrane complex stabilizes the inner root sheath while desmosomes contact the companion layer through specific keratins
Junctional proteins stabilize the inner root sheath and connect the companion layer in human hair.
research In Vitro Assembly and Structure of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Scientists successfully created mouse hair proteins in the lab, which are stable and similar to natural hair.
research EDA Fibronectin Microarchitecture and YAP Translocation During Wound Closure
Correcting EDA fibronectin organization and YAP translocation can improve wound healing in fibrotic conditions.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
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 Nucleation and growth of macrofibrils in trichocyte (hard-α) keratins
Sheet formation is key to macrofibril structure differences in wool.
research No evidence for THAP1/DYT6 variants as disease modifiers in DYT1 dystonia
THAP1 gene changes do not affect DYT1 dystonia; finasteride may help reduce tics and OCD in Tourette syndrome.
research Cytoskeletal Regulation of Dermal Regeneration
Targeting the actin cytoskeleton could improve skin healing and reduce scarring.
research P5 Assembly of hair keratins in thansfected cultured cells
research Histochemical observation of the cell membrane complex of hair.
The Cell Membrane Complex in hair has both water-attracting and water-repelling layers.
research 547 CDK9 Kinase Activation in Association with AFF1-SEC Initiate Epidermal Progenitor differentiation
NCSTN gene mutation causes abnormal skin cell differentiation and more inflammation, contributing to Hidradenitis Suppurativa.
research Trichothiodystrophy: an ultrastructural study of the hair follicle
Trichothiodystrophy causes abnormal protein deposits and distortion in hair follicles.
research Cellular Senescence and Aging in Myotonic Dystrophy
Myotonic Dystrophy may age cells faster, and drugs that target aging could be potential treatments.
research O02 Ubiquitomics of CYLD-deficient skin tumours reveals dysregulation of hair follicle keratinocyte processes
CYLD deficiency in skin tumors disrupts hair follicle cell processes and protein secretion.
research Corneodesmosin: Structure, Function and Involvement in Pathophysiology
Corneodesmosin is essential for skin and hair health, and its dysfunction can lead to skin and hair disorders.
research Trichocyte Keratin-Associated Proteins (KAPs)
research Sequence analyses of Type I and Type II chains in human hair and epithelial keratin intermediate filaments: Promiscuous obligate heterodimers, Type II template for molecule formation and a rationale for heterodimer formation
Type I and Type II keratin chains can form heterodimers despite sequence differences.
research The role of disulfide bond formation in the structural transition observed in the intermediate filaments of developing hair
Disulfide bonds are crucial for hair structure during keratinization.
research Cyclic Alopecia and Abnormal Epidermal Cornification in Zdhhc13 -Deficient Mice Reveal the Importance of Palmitoylation in Hair and Skin Differentiation
The enzyme DHHC13 is essential for healthy hair and skin, and its deficiency leads to hair loss and skin problems.
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 Molecular modeling and structural characterization of a high glycine–tyrosine hair keratin associated protein
The 3D structure of a key hair protein was modeled, revealing specific helical structures and stabilization features.
research The Basement Membrane of Hair Follicle Stem Cells Is a Muscle Cell Niche
