750-780 / 1000+ results research Characterization of a 300 kbp Region of Human DNA Containing the Type II Hair Keratin Gene Domain
The research identified six functional hair keratin genes and four pseudogenes, providing insights into hair formation and gene organization.
research Against the Rules: Human Keratin K80
Keratin K80 is an ancient protein found in various tissues, important for cell structure and tissue differentiation.
research The hair cycle and its regulation
Hormones, nutrition, and seasonal changes regulate hair growth cycles, with androgens extending growth phases and factors like aging and malnutrition affecting hair loss and thinning.
research Identification of the keratin-associated protein 13-3 (KAP13-3) gene in sheep
The KAP13-3 gene in sheep affects wool quality by influencing keratin assembly.
research Mammalian-specific ectodermal enhancers control the expression of Hoxc genes in developing nails and hair follicles
HoxC genes are crucial for normal hair and nail development.
research Isolation and Characterization of Mouse High-glycine/Tyrosine Proteins
Mouse high-glycine/tyrosine proteins have distinct patterns in hair follicles, peaking at specific hair cycle days.
research An incompletely penetrant novel MAFB (p.Ser56Phe) variant in autosomal dominant multicentric carpotarsal osteolysis syndrome
Researchers found a new gene variant linked to a rare bone disease, which doesn't always cause symptoms in carriers.
research Comparative aspects of the inner root sheath in adult and developing hairs of mammals in relation to the evolution of hairs
The inner root sheath evolved to help hair grow safely through the skin in mammals.
research Does degree of baldness influence vitamin D status?
Baldness does not affect vitamin D levels in men.
research The organization of the keratin I and II gene clusters in placental mammals and marsupials show a striking similarity
Keratin gene clusters in humans and marsupials are similarly organized.
research Structural Hierarchy of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratin proteins are crucial for hair growth and structure.

Sex-limited chromosomes can affect traits not related to reproduction.
research The Organizer and Beyond
Cells from certain embryo parts can induce head formation in another embryo, involving complex signaling pathways.
research Alopecia frontal posmenopáusica
Postmenopausal women may experience frontal hairline and eyebrow loss due to cicatricial fibrosis.
research A prostaglandind-synthase-positive mast cell gradient characterizes scalp patterning
Certain immune cells are more common on the top of the head and might help predict or treat common hair loss.
research Androgenic alopecia may have evolved to protect men from prostate cancer by increasing skin exposure to ultraviolet radiation
Male pattern baldness might have evolved to help protect against prostate cancer by increasing UV radiation on the scalp.
research Beyond “Ethnicity” in Dermatology
The editor suggests removing "race" and "ethnicity" from dermatology and creating tools to objectively assess skin color and hair texture.
research NAC transcription factor RD26 is a regulator of root hair morphogenic plasticity
RD26 controls root hair growth during drought by repressing key genes, helping plants save energy.
research Isolation and characterization of a sheep cysteine-rich cuticle keratin pseudogene
Researchers found a non-functional sheep keratin gene due to mutations.
research Low temperature abolishes human cellular circadian rhythm through Hopf bifurcation
Cold temperatures can stop human cell circadian rhythms, but warming restores them.
research Unravelling the Red Beard--Dark Hair Dyad
Dark hair with a red beard likely evolved for camouflage, not attraction.
