Keratin metabolism in the epidermis and hair of mice with experimental diabetes

The study investigated keratin metabolism in the epidermis and hair of mice with experimentally induced diabetes. It aimed to understand how diabetes affects keratin production and structure, which are crucial for skin and hair health. The findings suggested that diabetes altered keratin metabolism, potentially leading to changes in the structural integrity of the skin and hair. This research provided insights into the broader implications of diabetes on skin and hair health, although the specific mechanisms and long-term effects required further investigation.
