May 1997 in “The Journal of Biochemistry” In this study, researchers purified and cloned rat peptidylarginine deiminase type III, demonstrating its activity and specific expression in the epidermis and hair follicles.
January 2001 in “Biomedical Research” This study observed that PAD type III and trichohyalin are expressed earlier than their deiminated form during the first and second hair cycles in rat hair follicles, indicating a potential additional factor is involved in triggering deimination.

August 1998 in “FEBS Letters” In this study, researchers identified two novel peptidylarginine deiminases from treated rat keratinocytes, both showing enzyme activity with PAD‐R11 reflecting a characteristic of epidermal enzymes.

January 2001 in “Biomedical Research” This study found that peptidylarginine deiminase type III and trichohyalin are coincidentally expressed in the infant rat hair follicle, but trichohyalin deimination occurs after their expression during development.

November 2000 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that human peptidylarginine deiminase type III is the predominant isoform in hair follicles and may modulate structural proteins during hair and hair follicle formation.
