research Human hair keratins promote the regeneration of peripheral nerves in a rat sciatic nerve crush model
Human hair keratin helps repair nerve damage in rats.
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 Cryo-Electron Microscopy of Trichocyte (Hard α-Keratin) Intermediate Filaments Reveals a Low-Density Core
Trichocyte filaments have a low-density core and may include proteins for hair structure.
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.

Mouse hair keratins mHa1 and mHb4 can't form a strong network on their own in cells.
research The Immune Functions of Keratinocytes in Skin Wound Healing
Keratinocytes help heal skin wounds by interacting with immune cells and producing substances that kill pathogens.
research Spiny Keratoderma
Spiny keratoderma is a rare skin condition with small spines on palms and soles, possibly linked to abnormal hair formation.
research Immunoperoxidase anti-keratin staining of epidermal and pilar cysts
Epidermal cysts come from the skin, while pilar cysts come from hair follicles.
research Self-Assembly of Solubilized Human Hair Keratins
Human hair keratins can form stable nanofiber networks that might help in tissue regeneration.
research The Intermediate Filament Architecture as Determined by X-Ray Diffraction Modeling of Hard α-Keratin
