research Revisiting the significance of keratin expression in complex epithelia
Keratin gene expression helps understand different types of skin cells and their development, and should be used carefully as biological markers.
research Deleting keratins to find one
A new keratin gene was found in mice, explaining hair growth.
research Expression of novel keratin associated protein 5 genes in the cuticle layer of human hair follicles
The study found nine new hair protein genes in human hair follicles.
research Biochemical Evidence That Small Proline-rich Proteins and Trichohyalin Function in Epithelia by Modulation of the Biomechanical Properties of Their Cornified Cell Envelopes
Small proline-rich proteins and trichohyalin help make epithelial tissues tougher and more flexible.
research Molecular Genetics of Inherited Disorders of Epidermal Keratins
Mutations in keratin genes cause skin disorders, but new treatments show promise.
research The role of cathepsin E in terminal differentiation of keratinocytes
Cathepsin E is crucial for normal skin cell differentiation and development.
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 The walking dead: sequential nuclear and organelle destruction during hair development
Cells in hair die by breaking down their DNA and mitochondria as they form keratin.
research A Keratin Fiber Sheath
Hair fibers may have a unique, non-protein sheath not previously identified.
research Regulation of hard α-keratin mechanics via control of intermediate filament hydration: matrix squeeze revisited
Hard α-keratins stay stiff in water because the surrounding matrix keeps them dehydrated and strong.
research Dual role of laminin‑511 in regulating melanocyte migration and differentiation
Laminin-511 is essential for proper melanocyte movement and development in mice.
research Expression of keratins K6 and K16 in regenerating mouse epidermis is less restricted by cell replication than the expression of K1 and K10.
Keratins K6 and K16 are expressed more freely in regenerating mouse skin than K1 and K10.
research Glycoconjugate expression of cells of human anagen hair follicles during keratinization
Human anagen hair follicles have unique carbohydrate patterns during keratinization.
research Spiny Keratoderma
Spiny keratoderma is a rare skin condition with small spines on palms and soles, possibly linked to abnormal hair formation.
research Expression of hair-related keratins in a soft epithelium: Subpopulations of human and mouse dorsal tongue keratinocytes express keratin markers for hair-, skin- and esophageal-types of differentiation
Hoxc13 is important for hair and tongue development by controlling hair keratin genes.
research Overexpression of human keratin 16 produces a distinct skin phenotype in transgenic mouse skin
High levels of human keratin 16 in mice cause skin lesions and abnormal skin development.
research Growth and differentiation of human keratinocytes cultured on eye lens capsules
Eye lens capsules are the best for growing human skin cells.
research Keratinisation status and cytokeratins of the human Meibomian gland epithelium
Hyper-keratinisation in Meibomian glands contributes to gland dysfunction.
research Expression of Keratin 75 (K6hf) in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Keratin 75 might be important in oral cancer progression.

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 Patterns of expression of trichocytic and epithelial cytokeratins in mammalian tissues
Trichocytic differentiation starts in cells with epithelial cytokeratins, transitioning to trichocytic cytokeratins in hair and gradually in nails.
research The role of keratin proteins and their genes in the growth, structure and properties of hair
Keratin proteins and their genes are crucial for hair growth and structure.
research Understanding the biochemical properties of human hair keratins : self-assembly potential and cell response
Human hair keratins can self-assemble and support cell growth, useful for biomedical applications.
