Researchers mapped and categorized specific keratin-associated protein genes on human chromosome 21q22.1.

Mice with human skin protein K8 had more skin problems and cancer.

Flightless I protein affects hair growth, with low levels delaying it and high levels increasing hair length in rodents.

Targeting the protein Caveolin-1 might help treat a type of scarring hair loss called Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia.

Some hair protein genes evolved early and were adapted for use in hair follicles.

Injecting a special gel with human protein particles can help hair grow.

Mice with more Flightless I protein grew back their claws better after amputation.

Versican, a protein, is less present in thinning hair follicles and this decrease might contribute to common hair loss in men.

Urokinase, a type of protein, helps skin cells multiply faster, especially in newborn mice.

μ-Crystallin may help hair growth by affecting thyroid hormone levels in mouse hair follicles.

K42 and K124 keratins are only found in horse hoof lamellae.

Not having enough or having too much of the protein Grainyhead-like 3 leads to various developmental problems.

Hair loss and aging are caused by the breakdown of a key protein in hair stem cells.

Cells in hair follicles help create fat cells in the skin by releasing a protein called Sonic Hedgehog.

Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.

Scientists created keratinocyte cell lines from human hair that can differentiate similarly to normal skin cells, offering a new way to study skin biology and diseases.

MPZL3 protein helps control the size of oil glands and the growth of oil-producing cells in both mice and humans.

Scientists turned mouse stem cells into skin cells that can grow into skin layers and structures.

The protein RSL4 is crucial for making root hairs longer by controlling genes related to cell growth.

Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.

BMP2 needs periosteal tissue to help regenerate mouse middle finger bones within a specific time.

The research found that chickenpox virus spreads in skin through blood then to skin cells, while shingles virus moves from nerves to hair follicle areas before infecting skin cells.

Understanding hair biology is key to developing better treatments for hair and scalp issues.

Wool and hair fibers absorb moisture similarly due to their keratin structure, with the amount of non-crystalline areas affecting the moisture uptake.

Coconut oil can damage hair by clogging pores, causing frizz, and disrupting moisture balance.

Hair follicles affect how well small molecules can pass through the skin, and this varies depending on the molecule's features.

MPZL3 protein helps keep sebaceous gland size and cell growth in check.

Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.
