600-630 / 1000+ resultsresearch Different keratin polypeptides in epidermis and other epithelia of human skin: a specific cytokeratin of molecular weight 46,000 in epithelia of the pilosebaceous tract and basal cell epitheliomas.
Basal-cell epitheliomas and the pilosebaceous tract share a unique keratin, distinguishing them from other skin areas.
research The HOXC13-controlled expression of early hair keratin genes in the human hair follicle does not involve TALE proteins MEIS and PREP as cofactors
research Hair growth promoting activity of discarded biocomposite keratin extract
Keratin extract from human hair was found to promote hair growth in mice.
research The complement of native α-keratin polypeptides of hair-forming cells: A subset of eight polypeptides that differ from epithelial cytokeratins
research [Immunohistochemical study on the keratin expression in generating rat hair tissues using anti-hair keratin monoclonal antibodies].
Hair germ cells differ from epidermal cells in keratin expression, and specific keratins form after hair differentiation.
research Mechanically Robust MXene‐Metal Polyphenol Network Hybrid Interfaces for Multifunctional Protection of Keratin Fibers
The new coating protects and strengthens hair while improving its properties.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Immunofluorescence analysis of the basement membrane zone components in human anagen hair follicles
The upper hair follicle is stable, while the lower part allows movement during hair growth.
research Protein chains in hair and epidermal keratin IF: Structural features and spatial arrangements
research Basal Lamina Changes During Tissue Interactions in Hair Follicles—An In Vitro Study of Normal Dermal Papillae and Vitamin A-Induced Glandular Morphogenesis
research Understanding the Nano‐topography Changes and Cellular Influences Resulting from the Surface Adsorption of Human Hair Keratins
Human hair keratins improve cell adhesion and growth on culture surfaces.
research Molecular elements of the regulatory control of keratin filament modulator AHF/trichohyalin in the hair follicle
The study concluded that a protein important for hair strength is regulated by certain molecular processes and is affected by growth phases.
research Role of human type II hair keratins in intermediate filament bundling in vitro
research Author response: Hair follicle epidermal stem cells define a niche for tactile sensation
Skin stem cells in hair follicles are important for touch sensation.
research Cornification
Cornification is the process where living skin cells die to create a protective barrier, and problems with it can cause skin diseases.
research Pathogenesis of pili annulati
Pili annulati is caused by a protein metabolism disorder affecting hair structure.
research Novel insights into hair structure and the effects of chemical stressors on hair and skin using label-free advanced light microscopy
Chemical stressors damage hair structure but the skin's outer layer protects living cells.
research Importance of Citrullination on Hair Protein Molecular Assembly During Trichocytic Differentiation
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 Investigation of the Changes in the Hair Cuticle Due to Chemical Degradation
Chemical treatments severely damage hair cuticles, especially in previously treated hair.
research MOLECULAR AND CELLULAR BASIS OF EXOGEN AND ANAGEN INDUCTION
Hair growth and shedding involve specific cell changes and gene roles.

research Identification of the C-terminal tail domain of AHF/trichohyalin as the critical site for modulation of the keratin filamentous meshwork in the keratinocyte
The C-terminal tail of AHF/trichohyalin is essential for organizing keratin filaments in keratinocytes.
research 447 Skin-Associated Cartilage Consists of Lipid-Filled Cells That Modify Hair Growth via BMP and WNT Signaling
Skin-associated cartilage cells can influence hair growth by altering specific signaling pathways.
research Pili annulati with fragility: Electron microscopic findings of a case
The study found that hair fragility in Pili annulati may be caused by cavities and damage within the hair shafts.
research Hoxc13 mutant mice lack external hair
Hoxc13 gene is essential for hair, nail, and papilla development.
