Yak belly hair has higher porosity and is less stiff than human hair, making it absorb dye better but less suitable as a direct substitute for hair dyeing.

Researchers isolated and identified structural components of human hair follicles, providing a model for studying hair formation.

Changing disulfide bonds in human hair affects its melting behavior and thermal stability.

Actin filaments help root hairs grow faster and longer under low potassium stress.

Human hair keratins K85 and K35 create unique filament patterns important for early hair formation.

Hair keratins evolved from ancient proteins, diversifying through gene changes, crucial for forming claws and later hair in mammals.

Understanding intermediate filaments helps explain hair health and related diseases.

Keratin fibrils in hair form and stop growing at specific points in the follicle.

Hard skin features like scales, feathers, and hair evolved through specific protein changes in different animal groups.

A mother and her two daughters got a skin infection from their cat.

The keratin network in mouse skin changes during cornification and affects the skin's protective barrier.

Recombinant keratin materials may better promote skin cell differentiation than natural keratin.

Researchers extracted tiny keratin filaments from human hair by unzipping its outer layer.

The study found that certain genes are important for hedgehog skin appendage development and immunity, with spines possibly evolving for protection and infection resistance.

Different combinations of human hair keratins affect how hair fibers form.

Human hair can almost fully recover its structure within about 1,000 minutes after being stretched.

Beautiful hair is flexible and elastic due to its unique double-layered structure and can be enhanced with succinic acid treatment.

Trichohyalin is a protein in hair follicles that helps form hair filaments.

The model shows that filament flexibility and amino acid differences affect how fast intermediate filament proteins assemble.

AIRE protein, defective in APECED patients, is found in skin and hair cells and interacts with cytokeratin 17.

Human hair keratins can self-assemble and support cell growth, useful for biomedical applications.

Human hair keratin genes are similar to mouse genes and are specifically expressed in hair follicles.

Keratins are important for skin cell health and their problems can cause diseases.

Scientists successfully created mouse hair proteins in the lab, which are stable and similar to natural hair.
