Psoriasis causes changes in certain keratins and shrinks sebaceous glands in the scalp.
research Identification of Novel Mutations in Basic Hair Keratins hHb1 and hHb6 in Monilethrix: Implications for Protein Structure and Clinical Phenotype
New mutations in hair keratin genes can change hair structure and cause monilethrix, with nail issues more common in certain gene mutations.
research Woolly hair nevus
A 17-year-old developed woolly hair nevus in adolescence, which is unusual, and over time the hair darkened and straightened slightly, but microscopic changes persisted.

research Hair
Hair grows from living roots, is made of dead keratin, and goes through growth, rest, and shedding stages.
research The distribution of melanocytes and the degradation of melanosomes in fetal hair follicles
Fetal hair follicles have melanocytes with melanosomes at different stages, which are broken down into pigment particles in keratinocytes.
research Androgen Regulation of the Human Hair Follicle: The Type I Hair Keratin hHa7 Is a Direct Target Gene in Trichocytes
The hHa7 gene is regulated by androgens in certain body hair, not scalp hair.
research The structure of the “amorphous” matrix of keratins
Human hair keratin fibers have a detailed nano-scale structure that changes with different conditions.
research A Hairy Paradox: Congenital Triangular Alopecia with a Central Hair Tuft
Some people with congenital triangular alopecia have a central tuft of hair in the bald patch, but the cause is unknown.
research Immunohistochemical staining characteristics of epidermal appendages (hair follicles and eccrine sweat glands) to anti-epidermal keratin antisera
Hair follicles and sweat glands show different keratin staining patterns.
research Organization of microfibrils in keratin fibers studied by X-ray scattering
The study improved understanding of keratin fiber structure by showing consistent microfibril diameter but varying distances and electron density profiles.
research Water distribution in human hair microstructure elucidated by spin contrast variation small-angle neutron scattering
The technique showed that human hair has two main parts, with 68% being rigid and the rest flexible, and water swelling affects its structure.

MAP-2 is crucial for the structure of hair follicles and nails.
research The role of disulfide bond formation in the structural transition observed in the intermediate filaments of developing hair
Disulfide bonds are crucial for hair structure during keratinization.
research Histopathological Analysis on keratin2-6 g Expression in Hair Mutant Mouse Hague
Keratin2-6g is crucial for hair follicle development, with mutations causing cell degeneration and vacuolation.
