This study found that the keratin matrix in mammalian hard α-keratins is crucial for maintaining stiffness in water by controlling intermediate filament hydration.

This study identified the distribution of keratin-associated proteins during cornification in the epidermis of reptiles, revealing unique structural characteristics in sauropsid keratin proteins compared to other vertebrates.

This study identified two types of hard alpha-keratin filament assemblies in developing human hair follicles, which may help investigate the structural framework of mammalian keratin appendages.

This study found that, compared to oxidative treatments, reductive perm-waving more severely impacts the intermediate filaments in European human hair, while both treatments alter denaturation kinetics in a first-order manner.

This study found that chemically modifying human hair through esterification or disulfide reduction and alkylation affects the hair's viscoelastic properties, including stability, integrity, and response to moisture.
