research A comparative study of materials assembled from recombinant K31 and K81 and extracted human hair keratins
Recombinant keratin materials may better promote skin cell differentiation than natural keratin.
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 WNT Signaling in the Control of Hair Growth and Structure
The research shows that a gene called Wnt3 affects hair growth and structure, causing short hair and balding when overactive.
research Cachexia and graft-vs.-host-disease-type skin changes in keratin promoter-driven TNF alpha transgenic mice.
TNF alpha in skin cells causes weight loss, hair and fat issues, and skin inflammation in mice.

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 Effects of Food-Derived Collagen Peptides on the Expression of Keratin and Keratin-Associated Protein Genes in the Mouse Skin
Eating collagen peptides may help with skin and hair growth.
research Effect of equilibrium pH on the structure and properties of bleach‐damaged human hair fibers
Hair's structure and properties change with pH; acidic pH maintains strength and less swelling, while alkaline pH increases water content and swelling.
research Model systems for the study of dermatophyte and non-dermatophyte invasion of human keratin.
Terbinafine effectively stops fungal invasion of human keratin.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The skin has multiple layers and cells, serves as a protective barrier, helps regulate temperature, enables sensation, affects appearance, and is involved in vitamin D synthesis.
research Corneodesmosin: Structure, Function and Involvement in Pathophysiology
Corneodesmosin is essential for skin and hair health, and its dysfunction can lead to skin and hair disorders.
research Understanding the biochemical properties of human hair keratins : self-assembly potential and cell response
