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 Keratohyalin, Trichohyalin and Keratohyalin‐Trichohyalin Hybrid Granules: An Overview
Keratohyalin and trichohyalin proteins help form and organize skin and hair structures.
research Ultrastructural Study on Connective Tissue-Epithelial Junctions in Anagen Hair Follicle of Human Fetus
The hair follicle's connection to connective tissue is weaker than the skin's.
research The structure of the cornified claw sheath in the domesticated cat (Felis catus): implications for the claw‐shedding mechanism and the evolution of cornified digital end organs
Cat claws stay sharp by shedding their outer layer through microcracks formed during activities.
research Single-Cell RNA Profiling of Human Skin Reveals Age-Related Loss of Dermal Sheath Cells and Their Contribution to a Juvenile Phenotype
Aging reduces dermal sheath cells, affecting youthful skin appearance.
research Electron microscope observations on the glassy layer of the hair follicle*1
The glassy layer of hair follicles has different fibril sizes and arrangements in guinea pigs and young mice.
research Location of keratin-associated proteins in developing fiber cuticle cells using immunoelectron microscopy
Keratin-associated proteins are part of the developing hair fiber cuticle.
research Expression of Type II Collagen at the Middle Stages of Chick Embryonic and Human Fetal Skin Development
research Two- and Three-Dimensional Culture of Keratinocyte Stem and Precursor Cells Derived from Primary Murine Epidermal Cultures
research Differentiation of the basal cell epithelioma-like changes overlying dermatofibroma.

research Dermo‐epidermal interactions in reptilian scales: Speculations on the evolution of scales, feathers, and hairs
Reptilian scales, feathers, and hairs evolved from changes in skin cell interactions.
research Fine structure and immunocytochemistry of monotreme hairs, with emphasis on the inner root sheath and trichohyalin‐based cornification during hair evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research Outer root sheath keratinization in anagen and catagen of the mammalian hair follicle. A seventh distinct type of keratinization in the hair follicle: trichilemmal keratinization.
Trichilemmal keratinization is a unique process in hair follicles where the outer root sheath turns into keratin without a specific layer.
research Mechanotransductive Differentiation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells Derived from Aged Eyelid Skin into Corneal Endothelial-Like Cells
Hair follicle stem cells from aged eyelid skin can become corneal endothelial-like cells for potential eye treatments.
research 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 A two-phase model of skin epidermal stratification: lessons from centrosomes
Removing centrosomes from skin cells leads to thinner skin and stops hair growth, but does not greatly affect skin cell differentiation.
research Distribution of keratin and associated proteins in the epidermis of monotreme, marsupial, and placental mammals
Monotreme and marsupial skin proteins show primitive features and species-specific differences compared to placental mammals.
research Three‐dimensional adipofascial and dermal structures involved in forehead crease formation
Forehead creases are formed by a tight connection between the skin and muscle through dense fibers, with changes in skin thickness and fewer skin appendages near the creases.
research Topology of Feather Melanocyte Progenitor Niche Allows Complex Pigment Patterns to Emerge
Feather pigment patterns form through melanocyte arrangement and simple regulatory mechanisms.
research Influence of donor sources and culture media on the histo-morphological quality of human artificial skin models
EpiLife® media and younger donor age improve artificial skin model quality.

Non-hairy skin cells might be used to regenerate hair, helping with baldness and skin wounds.
research Epidermal cyst containing numerous spherules of keratin
The cyst had unusual keratin spherules and resembled bone marrow.
research The cell membrane complex: Three related but different cellular cohesion components of mammalian hair fibers
The cell membrane complex in mammalian hair has three distinct types with different structures and chemical properties.
research Epidermal Cells Expressing Putative Cell Markers in Nonglabrous Skin Existing in Direct Proximity with the Distal End of the Arrector Pili Muscle
Certain skin cells near the base of hair muscles may help renew and stabilize skin, possibly affecting skin disorder understanding.
research Hair follicle epithelial stem cells contribute to interfollicular epidermis during homeostasis
Hair follicle stem cells help maintain skin health by moving to and supporting the skin's surface layers.
