210-240 / 1000+ resultsresearch Histomorphological studies on the skin of camel (Camelus dromedarius) [in Bangladesh]
Camel skin has typical mammalian layers, with hair follicles, glands, and muscles, varying by body area.
research Fine structure and immunocytochemistry of monotreme hairs, with emphasis on the inner root sheath and trichohyalin‐based cornification during hair evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research LB1081 Three-dimensional imaging of tight junction-network across multiple layers of human epidermis by array tomography using backscattered electron-mode scanning electron microscopy
The study found that tight junctions reach the top layer of the skin's stratum granulosum, not just the second top layer as previously thought.
research Ultrastructural localization of hair keratin homologs in the claw of the lizard Anolis carolinensis
Lizard claws have hair-like keratins similar to those in mammals.
research Some electron microscope observations on hardening in the human hair follicle
The hair follicle structure is more complex than thought, with new findings on protein formation.
research Epidermal Barrier
Healthy skin prevents water loss and protects against threats.
research Molecular and Cellular Characterization of Avian Reticulate Scales Implies the Evo–Devo Novelty of Skin Appendages in Foot Sole
Bird foot scales develop differently and can repair but not fully regenerate due to the lack of specialized stem cell areas.
research Structure of canine skin
Canine skin has two main layers: the epidermis and dermis, with a supportive subcutis layer.
research Immunohistochemical demonstration of keratins in the epidermal layers of the Malayan pangolin (Manis javanica), with remarks on the evolution of the integumental scale armour
Keratins in Malayan pangolins vary by region, suggesting scales evolved from the tail towards the head.
research Differential Expression of Genes Encoding a Cysteine-Rich Keratin Family in the Hair Cuticle
research Characterization of sciellin, a precursor to the cornified envelope of human keratinocytes
Sciellin is a protein that helps form protective layers in skin, hair, and nails.

research Skin structure
Human skin has multiple layers and functions, with key roles in protection, temperature control, and appearance.
research remarks on the evolution of the integumental scale armour
Pangolin scales evolved for protection, hardening with age, due to keratin gene diversification.
research The Process of Cornification Evolved From the Initial Keratinization in the Epidermis and Epidermal Derivatives of Vertebrates: A New Synthesis and the Case of Sauropsids
Cornification evolved from keratinization in vertebrates, with differences between mammals and sauropsids.
research Evolution of Trichocyte Keratins
Hair keratins evolved from ancient proteins, diversifying through gene changes, crucial for forming claws and later hair in mammals.
research Keratin Expression Provides Novel Insight into the Morphogenesis and Function of the Companion Layer in Hair Follicles
Keratin patterns in hair follicles help understand hair growth and potential hair and nail disorders.
