research DHT deficiency perturbs the integrity of the rat seminiferous epithelium by disrupting tight and adherens junctions
DHT deficiency can disrupt cell connections in rat testes, possibly affecting fertility.
research Size Polymorphisms in the Human Ultrahigh Sulfur Hair Keratin-Associated Protein 4, KAP4, Gene Family
The study found that variations in hair protein genes are likely due to evolutionary deletions or duplications.
research Multifunctional Merkel cells: Their roles in electromagnetic reception, finger-print formation, Reiki, epigenetic inheritance and hair form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research A highly resistant structure between cuticle and cortex of human hair
A tough membrane between the outer and inner layers of human hair protects it from damage.
research Is thyrotropin-releasing hormone a novel neuroendocrine modulator of keratin expression in human skin?
Thyrotropin-releasing hormone may help control skin and hair growth and could aid in treating related disorders.
research Hair keratin film as a substitute device for human hair
Keratin film can effectively replace human hair for testing hair damage.
research Targeting the stem cell niche: role of collagen XVII in skin aging and wound repair
Collagen XVII is important for skin aging and wound healing.
research Highly Conserved Keratin-Associated Protein 7-1 Gene in Yak, Taurine and Zebu Cattle
The KRTAP7-1 gene is very similar across different cattle and yak breeds and likely plays a role in hair strength and shape.
research Plakophilin 1 suppresses keratinocyte innate immune responses through DExD/H helicases
Plakophilin 1 helps control skin cell immune responses to prevent excessive inflammation.
research Independent DSG4 frameshift variants in cats with hair shaft dystrophy
Cats with abnormal hair had DSG4 gene changes causing hair problems.

research Apoptosis in human skin development: Morphogenesis, periderm, and stem cells
Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.
research A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determination, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin.
Keratin expression reflects cell organization and differentiation, not causes it.
research Bacteria induce skin regeneration via IL-1β signaling
Skin bacteria, specifically Staphylococcus aureus, help in wound healing and hair growth by using IL-1β signaling. Using antibiotics on skin wounds can slow down this natural healing process.
