February 1992 in “British Journal of Dermatology” The researchers reported that basal cell carcinoma tumor cells strongly express keratins typical of basal keratinocytes and some hair follicle components but lack differentiation markers, suggesting a follicular or pluripotent stem cell origin.

December 1988 in “Differentiation” This study found that T cytokeratins appear more gradually and with complex coexpression patterns in developing nail structures compared to the more abrupt transition in hair follicles.
248 citations

April 1988 in “Differentiation” In this study, researchers observed that trichocytic and epithelial cytokeratins have distinct expression patterns within various human and bovine hair follicle cells, contributing to understanding hair follicle development and growth.
135 citations
,
November 1987 in “Differentiation” This study found that cultured outer root sheath cells from human hair follicles expressed a keratin profile similar to their in vivo environment, indicating environmental influence on keratin expression.

October 1982 in “The Journal of Cell Biology” This study found that the cytokeratin patterns in skin epithelia can distinguish between different types, with basal-cell epitheliomas showing a striking similarity to the pilosebaceous tract.
