research Isolation of intermediate filament assemblies from human hair follicles.

28 citations , October 1985 in “The Journal of Cell Biology”

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.

research De novo filament formation by human hair keratins K85 and K35 follows a filament development pattern distinct from cytokeratin filament networks

2 citations , February 2021 in “FEBS open bio”

In this study, transfection experiments showed that mutations in the K85 gene affect filament formation with K35, which may impact hair formation related to ectodermal dysplasia.

research Dynamics of Actin Filaments Play an Important Role in Root Hair Growth under Low Potassium Stress in Arabidopsis thaliana

August 2024 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences”

This study found that root hairs of wild-type Arabidopsis grow faster and longer under low potassium stress, with changes in actin filament dynamics and specific regulation by the actin bundling proteins VLN1 and VLN4.

research ‘Hard’ and ‘soft’ principles defining the structure, function and regulation of keratin intermediate filaments

686 citations , February 2002 in “Current Opinion in Cell Biology”

Keratin filaments are crucial for cell structure and protection, with ongoing discoveries about their genes and functions.

research Types I and II Keratin Intermediate Filaments

211 citations , April 2018 in “Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology”

Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.

community Sebaceous filaments / blackheads on scalp - are they a cause of MPB or a symptom?

in Research/Science 1 upvotes 1 month ago

Sebaceous filaments or blackheads on the scalp are not a cause of hair loss; it's more likely due to hormonal factors, particularly in androgen-sensitive areas like the temples and crown. The user is using topical finasteride, minoxidil, and tretinoin for treatment.
