The document concludes that over 500 genes are linked to hair disorders and this knowledge is important for creating new treatments.
research Directed Expression of a Chimeric Type II Keratin Partially Rescues Keratin 5-null Mice
A chimeric keratin partially improved skin structure in mice lacking keratin 5, but didn't fully restore normal skin.
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 Electrophoretic variability in human head hair: Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of hair proteins in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate and urea
Human head hair proteins can be typed into eight distinct patterns, useful for genetic and forensic investigations.
