510-540 / 1000+ resultsresearch Immunohistochemical demonstration of keratins in the epidermal layers of the Malayan pangolin (Manis javanica), with remarks on the evolution of the integumental scale armour
Keratins in Malayan pangolins vary by region, suggesting scales evolved from the tail towards the head.
research 565 hiPSC-derived skin organoids as tools for disease modelling: characterization of the epidermal-dermal junction
Human-induced stem cell-created skin models can help understand skin diseases by studying the skin's layers.
research Isolation and properties of inner sheath cells of hair follicles
research The Type I Keratin 19 Possesses Distinct and Context-dependent Assembly Properties
Keratin 19 forms less stable and shorter filaments than keratin 14, giving unique traits to certain skin cells.
research Histochemistry of the human hair follicle with consideration of anagen phases I to VI
Human hair follicles have a unique cell distribution and differentiation pattern during growth.
research Animal models of human skin disease
Mutations in certain skin proteins cause severe skin issues, while others have limited effects, highlighting the need to understand these proteins for better treatments.
research Characterization of Human KAP24.1, A Cuticular Hair Keratin-Associated Protein with Unusual Amino-Acid Composition and Repeat Structure
Scientists discovered a unique hair protein, KAP24.1, with a special structure, found only in the upper part of hair cuticles.
research Characterization of Epithelial Hair Follicle Stem Cells in Lichen Planopilaris and Folliculitis Decalvans Through Keratin 19 Expression
Keratin 19 may help diagnose and treat certain types of permanent hair loss.

research Changes in Different Melanocyte Populations During Hair Follicle Involution (Catagen)
Different melanocyte types in hair follicles either survive or die during the catagen phase.
research Limbal microenvironment can induce transdifferentiation of hair follicle stem cells into corneal epithelial‐like cells
Hair follicle stem cells can become corneal-like cells with the right environment.
research Keratin 75 Is a Component of the LINC Complex and Has an Essential Role in Mediating the SOX2 Rapid Healing Response during Wound Repair
Keratin 75 is important for fast wound healing and works with SOX2 and the LINC complex to help skin cells move and repair damage.
research Dermal-Epidermal Interactions--Follicle Derived Cell Populations in the Study of Hair-Growth Mechanisms.
Dermal papilla cells are crucial for hair growth and can induce new hair follicles.
research [An immunohistochemical study on the normal human skin using an anti-hair keratin monoclonal antibody (HKN-2)].
research Somatic mutations distinguish melanocyte subpopulations in human skin
Hair follicles protect melanocytes from sun damage, helping them replenish skin.
research Keratin
Understanding how keratin structures in hair are arranged and interact is key for creating methods to extract and purify them.
research Isolation and Characterization of a Putative Keratin-Associated Protein Gene Expressed in Embryonic Skin of Mice
The 4C32 gene may help in mouse skin development and differentiation.
research Krtap11-1, a hair keratin-associated protein, as a possible crucial element for the physical properties of hair shafts
Krtap11-1 is important for hair strength and structure.
research A STUDY OF THE DIFFERENTIATION PRODUCTS OF THE HAIR FOLLICLE CELLS WITH THE ELECTRON MICROSCOPE.
Hair follicle cells become four types: medulla, cortex, cuticle, and inner root sheath.
research LB1671 Large-scale skin scRNA-seq profiling highlights distinct body site-specific ligand-receptor interactions and pathways in keratinocytes
Different body areas have unique skin cell communication patterns, explaining why certain skin diseases occur in specific regions.
research AP-2α/AP-2β transcription factors are key regulators of epidermal homeostasis
AP-2α and AP-2β proteins are essential for healthy adult skin and hair.
research Keratin expression in mammalian skin, hair and nail [Abstract]
research Location and fine structure of melanocytes in human fetal scalp hair follicles.
Melanocytes in the outer root sheath are likely stem cells that grow fast but stay immature.
research 186 Dissecting the role of the common neurotrophin receptor CD271 in the skin: generation and characterization of a novel mouse model with keratinocyte-specific conditional deletion
Deleting the CD271 gene in mouse skin cells leads to disorganized skin and increased hair growth, suggesting CD271 is important for skin health.
research Publisher Correction: Keratin-mediated hair growth and its underlying biological mechanism
research Expression patterns of hair-related keratins and epithelial keratins in onychopapilloma: The significance of clarifying the origin of onychopapilloma
Onychopapilloma likely originates from the nail bed, not the nail matrix.
research Induced pluripotent stem cells from human hair follicle keratinocytes as a potential source for in vitro hair follicle cloning
Human hair follicles can be used to create stem cells that might help clone hair for treating hair loss or helping burn patients.
