5 / 1000+ results research Trichohyalin, an intermediate filament-associated protein of the hair follicle.
This study reports that a 190,000 molecular weight protein, identified as trichohyalin, may play a matrix role in the development of inner root sheaths in hair follicles.
research In Vitro Assembly and Structure of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments
This study reports that expressed mouse type Ia and type IIa trichocyte keratins were successfully assembled into intermediate filaments in vitro, while also suggesting that disulfide bond cross linking enhances their stability.
research The Intermediate Filament Architecture as Determined by X-Ray Diffraction Modeling of Hard α-Keratin
Hard α-keratin in hair has a unique, nonordered structure, different from other fibers.
research Cortical cell types and intermediate filament arrangements correlate with fiber curvature in Japanese human hair
This study found that in naturally curved human scalp hairs, distinct arrangements of cell types on either side of the hair fiber contribute to its curvature.
