research Exploiting the Keratin 17 Gene Promoter To Visualize Live Cells in Epithelial Appendages of Mice

58 citations , July 2005 in “Molecular and Cellular Biology”

This study showed that a 2-kilobase upstream region of the mouse keratin 17 gene enables targeted GFP expression in major epithelial appendages of transgenic mice, indicating sonic hedgehog's involvement in its regulation.

research Convergent Evolution of Cysteine-Rich Keratins in Hard Skin Appendages of Terrestrial Vertebrates

36 citations , November 2019 in “Molecular biology and evolution”

This study suggests that the keratins found in reptile and bird skin appendages evolved independently from mammalian hair keratins, highlighting convergent evolution in these species.

research Immunohistochemical staining characteristics of epidermal appendages (hair follicles and eccrine sweat glands) to anti-epidermal keratin antisera

6 citations , November 1984 in “Acta Dermato Venereologica”

This study investigated the immunohistochemical characteristics of keratin proteins in epidermal appendages, finding variable staining patterns in different skin structures and tumor cells, which suggests differences in keratinization.

research Keratin gene mutations in disorders of human skin and its appendages

185 citations , December 2010 in “Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics”

Keratin gene mutations cause various skin and hair disorders, but new research offers hope for future treatments.

research Immunohistochemical demonstration of keratins 8 and 14 in benign tumours of the skin appendage

38 citations , November 1991 in “Archiv für Pathologische Anatomie und Physiologie und für Klinische Medicin”

learn Overview

learn Keratin

What role does keratin play in strengthening weak or thinning hair? Keratin strengthens hair by forming protective structures that prevent breakage and thinning.
Are keratin treatments good for people with alopecia, or do they only improve the hair’s appearance? Keratin treatments improve hair appearance but do not address alopecia or stimulate growth.
Is keratin in shampoos and conditioners actually absorbed by the hair, or does it just coat the surface? Keratin in shampoos mainly coats the hair rather than being absorbed.
