German shepherd hair varies in color and pattern but is flat with a consistent internal structure.
research Regulatory pathway analysis of coat color genes in Mongolian horses
Genes influence horse coat color and may help understand human skin conditions.
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 Spontaneous Super-Contraction of Animal Hair
Animal hair can curl tightly on its own, especially in foxes, due to changes in keratin.
research The transcriptional landscape of seasonal coat colour moult in the snowshoe hare
Researchers found genes that control hair color and growth change before the visible coat color changes in snowshoe hares.
research Characterization of a Hair (Wool) Keratin Intermediate Filament Gene Domain
research Characterization of Hair Follicles in Hirosaki Hairless Rats with Deletion of Basic Hair Keratin Genes. Enlarged Medulla, Loss of Cuticle and Long Catagen
Hirosaki hairless rats have sparse, twisted hair due to missing hair keratin genes.
research Morphology and Properties of Hair
