Mature hair surfaces are formed by keratinized cells with developed layers, not just modified plasma membranes.
research Absence of Male-Pattern Baldness in Men with X-Linked Recessive Ichthyosis?
Men with X-linked recessive ichthyosis may not experience typical male-pattern baldness.

The near-naked hairless mutation causes hair loss but is not due to a mutation in the hairless gene itself.
research 859 Building a functional niche for hair follicle stem cells
Deleting the CRIF1 gene in mice disrupts skin and hair formation, certain proteins affect hair growth, a new compound may improve skin and hair health, blood cell-derived stem cells can create skin-like structures, and hair follicle stem cells come from embryonic cells needing specific signals for development.
research Expression patterns of hair and epithelial keratins and transcription factors HOXC13, LEF1, and β‐catenin in a malignant pilomatricoma: a histological and immunohistochemical study
The malignant pilomatricoma showed strong epithelial keratin expression, suggesting it may not calcify.
research An Updated Nomenclature for Keratin-Associated Proteins (KAPs)
The document introduced a new naming system for keratin-associated proteins to improve clarity and communication across species.
