research Anatomy and Physiology of Hair
Hair is important for protection, social interaction, and temperature control, and is made of a growth cycle-influenced follicle and a complex shaft.
research From Structural Resilience to Cell Specification: Intermediate Filaments as Regulators of Cell Fate
Intermediate filaments are crucial for cell differentiation and stem cell function.
research Adsorption of Diclofenac and PFBS on a Hair Keratin Dimer
Human hair keratin might be good for filtering out harmful substances from water.
research Contribution of Environmental Constituents in the Genomic Disruption of Cytokeratins
Environmental factors can cause mutations in skin proteins, leading to skin disorders.
research A Two-Phase Model of Skin Epidermal Stratification: Lessons from Centrosomes
Removing centrosomes from skin cells leads to thinner skin and stops hair growth, but does not greatly affect skin cell differentiation.
research Histogenesis of Keratoacanthoma: Histochemical and Immunohistochemical Study
Keratoacanthoma comes from hair follicle cells.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The skin has multiple layers and cells, serves as a protective barrier, helps regulate temperature, enables sensation, affects appearance, and is involved in vitamin D synthesis.
research Influence of Feed Restriction on the Wool Proteome: A Combined iTRAQ and Fiber Structural Study
Feed restriction in sheep leads to finer wool fibers but may reduce wool quality.
research Self-Consistent Field Theory for the Interactions Between Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratin filaments' elasticity is influenced by their terminal domains and surrounding medium.
research A General Mathematical Model for the In Vitro Assembly Dynamics of Intermediate Filament Proteins
The model shows that filament flexibility and amino acid differences affect how fast intermediate filament proteins assemble.
