Journal Article
Duit, R., Hawkins, T. J., & Määttä, A. (2019). Depilatory chemical thioglycolate affects hair cuticle and cortex, degrades epidermal cornified envelopes and induces proliferation and differentiation responses in keratinocytes. Experimental Dermatology, 28(1), 76-79. https://doi.org/10.1111/exd.13838

Thioglycolate is a potent depilatory agent. In addition, it has been proposed to be useful as a penetration enhancer for transepidermal drug delivery. However, the effects on hair structure and stress responses it elicits in epidermal keratinocytes h...

Journal Article
Maruthappu, T., McGinty, L. A., Blaydon, D. C., Fell, B., Määttä, A., Duit, R., …Kelsell, D. P. (2018). Recessive Mutation in FAM83G Associated with Palmoplantar Keratoderma and Exuberant Scalp Hair. Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 138(4), 984-987. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jid.2017.10.031

To the Editor Palmoplantar keratodermas are a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by abnormal thickening of the volar epidermis (Blaydon and Kelsell, 2014, Maruthappu et al., 2014). A subset of palmoplantar keratodermas are associated with... Read More about Recessive Mutation in FAM83G Associated with Palmoplantar Keratoderma and Exuberant Scalp Hair.
