research Trichohyalin-Like Proteins Have Evolutionarily Conserved Roles in the Morphogenesis of Skin Appendages
Trichohyalin-like proteins are essential for the development of skin structures like hair, nails, and feathers.
research Formation of the Iε-(γ-Glutamyl)Lysine Crosslink in Hair Proteins: Investigation of Transamidases in Hair Follicles
Transamidases help form strong crosslinks in hair proteins, crucial for hair strength.
research Rare and Common Genetic Determinants of Metabolic Individuality and Their Effects on Human Health
Genetic variations greatly affect individual metabolism and can impact health and disease risk.
research Known and Unknown Features of Hair Cuticle Structure: A Brief Review
