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 An approach to disorders of pigmentation
The document concludes that pigmentation disorders in animals involve complex interactions between melanocytes and keratinocytes.
research The melanocyte photosensory system in the human skin
Human skin's melanocytes respond to light by changing shape, producing pigments and hormones, which may affect sleep patterns.
research Organization of microfibrils in keratin fibers studied by X-ray scattering
The study improved understanding of keratin fiber structure by showing consistent microfibril diameter but varying distances and electron density profiles.
research Subclinical speckled perifollicular melanosis of the scalp.
The scalp has a natural speckled pattern of increased pigment around hair follicles, possibly linked to local hormone production.
