research Epithelial keratin and filaggrin expression in seborrheic keratosis: evaluation based on histopathological classification
Seborrheic keratosis shows varied cell differentiation, and keratin analysis helps diagnose skin tumors.
research Distribution of keratin and associated proteins in the epidermis of monotreme, marsupial, and placental mammals
Monotreme and marsupial skin proteins show primitive features and species-specific differences compared to placental mammals.
research Human stratified squamous epithelia differ in cellular fatty acid composition
Fatty acid composition in human skin, mouth, and hair cells varies with keratinization, and cultured cells show essential fatty acid deficiency.
research Changing the shape of hair with keratin peptides
Keratin peptides can change hair shape gently without harsh chemicals.
research Outer root sheath keratinization in anagen and catagen of the mammalian hair follicle. A seventh distinct type of keratinization in the hair follicle: trichilemmal keratinization.
Trichilemmal keratinization is a unique process in hair follicles where the outer root sheath turns into keratin without a specific layer.
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 Structure and site of expression of a murine type II hair keratin
A specific type II hair keratin was identified and found in hair cortex and tongue cells.
research Isolation and characterization of genomic clones of human sequences presumably coding for hair cysteine-rich proteins
A new protein linked to hair strength was identified, aiding in understanding brittle hair conditions.
research Immunohistochemical staining characteristics of epidermal appendages (hair follicles and eccrine sweat glands) to anti-epidermal keratin antisera
Hair follicles and sweat glands show different keratin staining patterns.
research Thermal and mechanical transitions in keratins and their relevance for hair cosmetics
High temperatures and cosmetic processes can damage hair keratin, affecting its structure and strength.
