research Reflectance Confocal Microscopy of the Yellow Dot Pattern in Alopecia Areata
Reflectance confocal microscopy confirms that yellow dots are signs of damaged hair follicles in alopecia areata.
research The Hairless Phenotype of the Hirosaki Hairless Rat Is Due to the Deletion of an 80-kb Genomic DNA Containing Five Basic Keratin Genes
Hirosaki hairless rats lack hair due to missing DNA with key keratin genes.
research Human Hair Follicle Stem/Progenitor Cells Express Hypoxia Markers
Human hair follicle stem cells show signs of low oxygen levels, which may be important for hair growth and preventing baldness.
research A Novel Mouse Type I Intermediate Filament Gene, Keratin 17n (K17n), Exhibits Preferred Expression in Nail Tissue
A new mouse gene, Keratin 17n, is mainly found in nail tissue and may explain why mice without Keratin 17 don't have nail issues.
research An Electron Microscopy Study of Keratin Degradation by the Fungus Microsporum gypseum in vitro
Microsporum gypseum fungus breaks down keratin in hair by digesting it enzymatically, starting with less keratinized parts.
research Monilethrix: A Novel Mutation (Glu402Lys) in the Helix Termination Motif and the First Causative Mutation (Asn114Asp) in the Helix Initiation Motif of the Type II Hair Keratin hHb6
New mutations in hair keratin genes cause the rare hair disorder monilethrix.
research Damage of hair follicle stem cells and alteration of keratin expression in external radiation-induced acute alopecia
Radiation damages hair stem cells and changes keratin expression, with Krt5 as a potential marker for radiation effects.
research Comparative genomics analyses of alpha-keratins reveal insights into evolutionary adaptation of marine mammals
Marine mammals lost many α-keratin genes, aiding their adaptation to aquatic life by becoming hairless.
research Hard Keratin IF and Associated Proteins
research Distribution of keratin and associated proteins in the epidermis of monotreme, marsupial, and placental mammals
Monotreme and marsupial skin proteins show primitive features and species-specific differences compared to placental mammals.
research Variation in the ovine keratin-associated protein 15-1 gene affects wool yield
Genetic variation in the KRTAP15-1 gene affects wool yield in sheep.
research Distribution of Glycolipid and Unsaturated Fatty Acids in Human Hair
Human hair has more unsaturated fats inside than on the surface, and certain lipids may help bind the outer and inner layers together.
research Heat‐damaged evaluation of virgin hair
Heat damages hair, with Asian hair losing more protein than Caucasian hair.
