Trichohyalin, an Intermediate Filament-Associated Protein of the Hair Follicle

    Joseph A. Rothnagel, George E. Rogers
    Studysummary This study reports that a 190,000 molecular weight protein, identified as trichohyalin, may play a matrix role in the development of inner root sheaths in hair follicles.
