research Insights on the mechanical behavior of keratin fibrils
Keratin's mechanical properties are influenced by hydrogen bonds and secondary structure, and can be improved with the SPD-2 peptide.
research Immune cell regulation of the hair cycle
Immune cells affect hair growth and could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Perspectives on Hair Evolution Based on Some Comparative Studies on Vertebrate Cornification
Hair in mammals likely evolved from glandular structures, not scales.
research Acne
Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.
research Reversing wrinkled skin and hair loss in mice by restoring mitochondrial function
Restoring mitochondrial function in mice reversed their skin wrinkling and hair loss.
research Emergence of the natural history of Myhre syndrome: 47 patients evaluated in the Massachusetts General Hospital Myhre Syndrome Clinic (2016–2023)
Myhre syndrome symptoms worsen over time, with specific genetic variants affecting severity.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa: A folliculotropic disease of innate immune barrier dysfunction?
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a skin disease caused by the breakdown of the skin's natural immune barriers, especially around hair follicles.
research Poster Presentations at the 28th Joint Meeting of the International Society of Dermatopathology, March 5–6, 2025, Orlando, Florida, USA
Accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment are crucial in dermatopathology.
research Is Propionibacterium acnes associated with hair casts and alopecia?
Propionibacterium acnes might be linked to hair casts and possibly alopecia.
research Insertional mutation of the hairless locus on mouse Chromosome 14
A gene mutation in mice causes permanent hair loss and skin issues.
research Defining the complex epithelia that comprise the canine claw with molecular markers of differentiation
Canine claws have complex structures with different keratin types, similar to hair and nails.
research Spiny Keratoderma
Spiny keratoderma is a rare skin condition with small spines on palms and soles, possibly linked to abnormal hair formation.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
The study found that certain genes are important for hedgehog skin appendage development and immunity, with spines possibly evolving for protection and infection resistance.
research Spiny keratoderma ‐ a demonstration of hair keratin and hair type keratinization
Spiny keratoderma may be ectopic hair formation on palms and soles.
research A novel fracture lattice in spiny mouse skin facilitates tissue autotomy and regeneration
Spiny mice have a unique skin structure that helps them heal and regenerate quickly.
research COX2-ATP Synthase Regulates Spine Follicle Size in Hedgehogs
COX2 and ATP synthase control the size of hedgehog spines.
research Silk secretion from tarantula feet revisited: alleged spigots are probably chemoreceptors
Tarantula feet likely have chemoreceptors, not silk-producing parts.
research Evolution of hard proteins in the sauropsid integument in relation to the cornification of skin derivatives in amniotes
Hard skin features like scales, feathers, and hair evolved through specific protein changes in different animal groups.
research remarks on the evolution of the integumental scale armour
Pangolin scales evolved for protection, hardening with age, due to keratin gene diversification.
research Skin Appendage Proteins of Tetrapods: Building Blocks of Claws, Feathers, Hair and Other Cornified Epithelial Structures
Understanding proteins in skin structures like claws and hair is crucial for future research.
research Ultrastructural visualization of cross-linked protein features in epidermal appendages
Cross-linked proteins help maintain the structure of hair, feathers, and hagfish teeth.
research Skin shedding and tissue regeneration in African spiny mice (Acomys)
African spiny mice can regenerate skin, hair, and cartilage, but not muscle, and their unique abilities could be useful for regenerative medicine.
research Cornification in reptilian epidermis occurs through the deposition of keratin‐associated beta‐proteins (beta‐keratins) onto a scaffold of intermediate filament keratins
Reptile skin hardens by layering beta-proteins on keratin.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
Genes related to keratin, skin cell differentiation, and immune functions are key in hedgehog skin and spine development.
research Structural and Immunocytochemical Characterization of Keratinization in Vertebrate Epidermis and Epidermal Derivatives

research Spider joint hair sensilla: adaptation to proprioreceptive stimulation
Spider joint hair sensilla are adapted to sense movement during walking.
research Convergent Evolution of Cysteine-Rich Keratins in Hard Skin Appendages of Terrestrial Vertebrates
Cysteine-rich keratins evolved independently in mammals, reptiles, and birds for hard skin structures like hair, claws, and feathers.
research Adaptations in the structure and innervation of follicle‐sinus complexes to an aquatic environment as seen in the Florida manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris)
