This case report describes a proliferating trichilemmal cyst that underwent malignant transformation, with specific keratins identified in the tumor but no epidermal keratin detected.

This study reports the cloning and expression details of two new human type II keratins, K6irs3 and K6irs4, in the hair follicle's inner root sheath, suggesting a distinct functional role related to hair structure.

This study found that cultured outer root sheath cells from human hair follicles expressed a keratin profile similar to their in vivo environment, indicating environmental influence on keratin expression.

This study provides evidence for K1 and K10 derivatives' presence in the inner root sheath and hair cuticle, suggesting that these hair follicle parts may follow familiar keratinization principles.

Junctional proteins stabilize the inner root sheath and connect the companion layer in human hair.
