Claudin-1 is important for the barrier function and growth of hair.
research 474 Stabilizing mutations of KLHL24 ubiquitin ligase cause loss of keratin 14 and human skin fragility
Certain mutations in the KLHL24 gene cause a skin disorder by breaking down an important skin protein.
research Keratinocyte stem cells of cornea, skin and hair follicles
Keratinocyte stem cells help regenerate and repair cornea, skin, and hair.
research Chapter 4 Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
research Characterisation of an Ovine Keratin Associated Protein (KAP) Gene, Which Would Produce a Protein Rich in Glycine and Tyrosine, but Lacking in Cysteine
A new sheep gene, KRTAP36-1, may help breed sheep with better wool by reducing prickle factor.

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 Structural change of keratin protein in human hair by permanent waving treatment
Permanent waving damages hair by disrupting its keratin structure.
research Electrophoretic variation of hair proteins.
Most people have similar hair protein patterns, but a rare variant was found in two women.
research Keratinocyte differentiation in psoriatic scalp: morphology and expression of epithelial keratins
Psoriasis causes changes in certain keratins and shrinks sebaceous glands in the scalp.
research Science and Technology of Hair Fibers
The document concludes that understanding hair's composition and the effects of treatments can lead to better hair care products.
research Characterization of Epithelial Hair Follicle Stem Cells in Lichen Planopilaris and Folliculitis Decalvans Through Keratin 19 Expression
Keratin 19 may help diagnose and treat certain types of permanent hair loss.
research 130 Deciphering the role of the hexosamine pathway in skin homeostasis
The hexosamine pathway helps maintain healthy skin by affecting the skin's structure and possibly increasing hair follicle stem cells.
research Demethylation of methionine and keratin damage in human hair
Copper and iron cause keratin damage in hair by converting methionine to homocysteine.
research A Rapid Extraction Procedure of Human Hair Proteins and Identification of Phosphorylated Species.
A new method quickly extracts and identifies proteins from hair and other keratin sources.
research Few Simple Sequence Repeats in Human Hair
Human hair keratin genes have unique simple sequence repeats that may help track genetic variations.
research Mechanically Robust MXene‐Metal Polyphenol Network Hybrid Interfaces for Multifunctional Protection of Keratin Fibers
The new coating protects and strengthens hair while improving its properties.
research Formation of surface membranes in developing mammalian hair fibres
Mature hair surfaces are formed by keratinized cells with developed layers, not just modified plasma membranes.
research Expression of epidermal keratins and filaggrin during human fetal skin development.
Keratins and filaggrin change as fetal skin develops, marking key stages of skin formation.
research Ancient lineages of the keratin-associated protein (KRTAP) genes and their co- option in the evolution of the hair follicle
Keratin-associated proteins have ancient origins and were used for different purposes before being adapted for hair in mammals.
research Novel mutations in the keratin-74 (KRT74) gene underlie autosomal dominant woolly hair/hypotrichosis in Pakistani families
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.
