Psoriasis causes changes in certain keratins and shrinks sebaceous glands in the scalp.
research Keratin 19 as a biochemical marker of skin stem cells in vivo and in vitro: keratin 19 expressing cells are differentially localized in function of anatomic sites, and their number varies with donor age and culture stage
Keratin 19 helps identify skin stem cells, with its presence varying by body location, age, and culture stage.
