| Introduction |
| Keratin is a fibrous structural protein that is a key component of the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin, as well as the hair, nails, hooves, claws, and horns in vertebrates. This insoluble protein is characterized by its ability to form tough and durable structures. There are two main types of keratins: soft keratins found in skin and nails, and hard keratins found in hair and horns. Keratins are rich in cysteine, which forms disulfide bridges that give the protein its characteristic strength and rigidity. |
| Function |
| Structural Integrity: Keratin provides mechanical strength and resilience to tissues. In the skin, it forms a protective barrier that shields against external damage and infections. Hair Structure: Keratin gives hair its strength and flexibility, enabling it to grow and maintain its shape. Nail Formation: It is responsible for the hardness and durability of nails, making them able to protect fingertips and toes. Scalp and Hair Follicle Health: Keratinocytes in the scalp play a role in the hair growth cycle and help maintain the health of hair follicles. Wound Healing: During skin repair, keratinocytes migrate to the site of injury and produce keratin, contributing to the formation of a scab and eventual regeneration of the skin tissue. |
| Application |
| Hair Care Products: Keratin is a common ingredient in shampoos, conditioners, and hair masks designed to strengthen and smooth hair, reducing frizz and breakage. Hair Straightening Treatments: Keratin-based hair straightening treatments temporarily reshape curly or wavy hair by infusing keratin proteins into the hair shaft, making it smoother and more manageable. Nail Care: Keratin-enriched nail strengtheners and polishes are used to fortify weak or brittle nails. |
