research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.
research Acidic and basic hair/nail ("hard") keratins: their colocalization in upper cortical and cuticle cells of the human hair follicle and their relationship to "soft" keratins.
Hair and nail cells share similar proteins, indicating a common differentiation pathway.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
research Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis: A Turkish family with loss of eyebrows and a U2HR mutation
A Turkish family with sparse hair and eyebrow loss has a mutation in the U2HR gene linked to Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis.
research Natural course of epidermolysis bullosa simplex with mottled pigmentation in a Japanese family with the p.P25L mutation in KRT 5
The p.P25L mutation in the KRT5 gene causes a rare skin condition that worsens over time and may lead to hair loss starting in young adulthood.
research Inherited Hairlessness: A Case Study of Familial Congenital Atrichia
The document concludes that the girl's hairlessness is likely inherited from her parents.
research Cryogelation of human hair keratins
Human hair keratins can be turned into useful 3D biomedical scaffolds through a freeze-thaw process.

Certain genetic variants in keratins increase the risk of tooth decay.
research Analysis of Keratin-Associated Protein-7 (KRTAP7) protein structure and function in Indian dromedary camel (Camelus dromedarius)
All Indian dromedary camel breeds have the same KRTAP7 gene affecting hair quality.
research Identification of a recurrent nonsense mutation in HR gene responsible for atrichia with papular lesions in two Kashmiri families
A mutation in the HR gene causes a rare form of irreversible hair loss in two Kashmiri families. Whole exome sequencing is effective for finding such mutations.
research Targeting the Janus Kinase Family in Autoimmune Skin Diseases
Janus kinase inhibitors are promising treatments for autoimmune skin diseases like eczema and psoriasis.
research Structure and hair follicle-specific expression of genes encoding the rat high sulfur protein B2 family
The B2 genes are crucial for hair growth in rats.
research Study of Hair Patterns of species of Muridae Family from Amravati District, Maharashtra.
Muridae species have unique hair patterns specific to each genus and species.
research A distinct gene close to the hairless locus on chromosome 8p underlies hereditary Marie Unna type hypotrichosis in a German family
A different gene near the hairless gene on chromosome 8p21 causes a rare hair loss condition in a German family.
research Characteristics of the microscopic hair structure of domestic mammals from Equidae family
Donkey and horse hair have different microscopic structures, which can help tell them apart.
research Sequence of a Cashmere goat type I hair keratin gene and its expression in skin
The Cashmere goat hair keratin gene is crucial for hair structure.

Hair follicles form hard α-keratin filaments in four steps, showing structural differences.
research Terrestrial vertebrates have two keratin gene clusters; striking differences in teleost fish
Terrestrial vertebrates have balanced keratin gene clusters, unlike teleost fish.
research Androgen Regulation of the Human Hair Follicle: The Type I Hair Keratin hHa7 Is a Direct Target Gene in Trichocytes
The hHa7 gene is regulated by androgens in certain body hair, not scalp hair.
research Krtap16, Characterization of a New Hair Keratin-associated Protein (KAP) Gene Complex on Mouse Chromosome 16 and Evidence for Regulation by Hoxc13
