research Expression analysis of the type I keratin protein keratin 33A in goat coat hair
Keratin 33A is a key protein in goat winter coats, especially in high-producing breeds.
research Minoxidil Acts as an Antiandrogen: A Study of 5α-reductase Type 2 Gene Expression in a Human Keratinocyte Cell Line.
Minoxidil may help treat hair loss by reducing the activity of a specific enzyme linked to baldness.
research Role of human type II hair keratins in intermediate filament bundling in vitro
research Cachexia and graft-vs.-host-disease-type skin changes in keratin promoter-driven TNF alpha transgenic mice.
TNF alpha in skin cells causes weight loss, hair and fat issues, and skin inflammation in mice.
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 Spiny keratoderma ‐ a demonstration of hair keratin and hair type keratinization
Spiny keratoderma may be ectopic hair formation on palms and soles.
research Characterization of New Members of the Human Type II Keratin Gene Family and a General Evaluation of the Keratin Gene Domain on Chromosome 12q13.13
research A Small Deletion Hotspot in the Type II Keratin GenemK6irs1/Krt2-6gon Mouse Chromosome 15, a Candidate for Causing the Wavy Hair of the Caracul (Ca) Mutation
The mK6irs1/Krt2-6g gene likely causes wavy hair in mice.
research Cloning and Characterization of a Mouse Type I Hair Keratin cDNA
research Genomic Characterization of the Human Type I Cuticular Hair Keratin hHa2 and Identification of an Adjacent Novel Type I Hair Keratin Gene hHa5
research Crosslinking structure of keratin. V. Number and type of crosslinks in microstructures of untreated and potassium cyanide treated human hair
Potassium cyanide treatment changes hair's disulfide bonds, making it more elastic.
research Crosslinking structure of keratin. V. Number and type of crosslinks in microstructures of untreated and potassium cyanide treated human hair
Potassium cyanide changes hair's disulfide bonds to monosulfide, affecting high-sulfur proteins more.
research In vitro assembly properties of human type I and II hair keratins
research Structural features and sites of expression of a new murine 65 kD and 48 kD hair-related keratin pair, associated with a special type of parakeratotic epithelial differentiation
A new pair of mouse keratins, 65 kD and 48 kD, are found in specific skin areas and are linked to a unique skin differentiation type.
research A novel point mutation of keratin 17 (KRT17) in a Japanese family with pachyonychia congenita type 2: an RNA-based genetic analysis using a single hair bulb
research The Region Coding for the Helix Termination Motif and the Adjacent Intron 6 of the Human Type I Hair Keratin Gene hHa2 Contains Three Natural, Closely Spaced Polymorphic Sites
research The Catalog of Human Hair Keratins
Human hair keratins were cataloged, showing their roles in hair differentiation stages.
research A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determination, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin.
Keratin expression reflects cell organization and differentiation, not causes it.
research Hair follicle-specific keratins and their diseases
Only a few hair-specific keratins are linked to inherited hair disorders.
research A keratin scaffold regulates epidermal barrier formation, mitochondrial lipid composition, and activity
Keratin is crucial for skin barrier formation and affects mitochondrial function.
research A Mutational Hotspot in the 2B Domain of Human Hair Basic Keratin 6 (hHb6) in Monilethrix Patients
A common mutation in the hHb6 gene is linked to monilethrix, but other factors may also play a role.
research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.
research Hair Keratins and Hair Follicle–Specific Epithelial Keratins
Hair and follicle keratins differ in structure and expression, especially in cysteine content.
research Gene expression of type 2 17β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in scalp hairs of hirsute women
Hirsute women have lower type 2 17β-HSD enzyme levels, which improve with treatment.
research Monilethrix: a keratin hHb6 mutation is co‐dominant with variable expression
A keratin hHb6 mutation causes a hair disorder with varying severity, influenced by other factors.
research Sequence and expression of human hair keratin genes
Human hair keratin genes are similar to mouse genes and are specifically expressed in hair follicles.
research Evolution of Trichocyte Keratins
Hair keratins evolved from ancient proteins, diversifying through gene changes, crucial for forming claws and later hair in mammals.
research Three-dimensional modelling of interchain sequence similarities and differences in the coiled-coil segments of keratin intermediate filament heterodimers highlight features important in assembly
Keratin heterodimers are preferred for their specific and structural advantages.
research The susceptibility of disulfide bonds to modification in keratin fibers undergoing tensile stress
Disulfide bonds in keratin fibers break more easily under stress, especially when wet, affecting fiber strength.
