This study found that specific human hair keratins are differentially expressed in the hair follicle, suggesting a shared pathway of epithelial differentiation between hair cortex and nail plate cells.

In this study, researchers developed a novel periodate oxidation method for extracting keratin micro-units from waste hair and feathers, achieving yields of 31.28% and 20.64% respectively, enhancing the stability of oil-in-water emulsions and suggesting potential for sustainable biomaterial production.

This study found that conserved DNA motifs and expression patterns in keratin genes suggest functional regulatory similarities in hair follicle differentiation across different mammalian species.

In this study, researchers found that the prevalent Glu 410 Lys mutation in hHb6 and a new Glu 403 Lys mutation in hHb1 are linked to monilethrix, suggesting a mutational hotspot in type II hair keratins.

This study found that genes in the human keratin-associated protein 1 family may have evolved mainly through gene duplication of cysteine-repeat motifs.
