La guaina epiteliale interna si distrugge e scompare, la guaina epiteliale esterna si ritrae, presentandosi come un sacco corneificato avvolto attorno alla parte terminale del pelo, prendendo l’aspetto di una clava.

neutral  mrrafe: Interesting sites but I'm not sure. "Club" is the hair, not the sac, yes?

  -> I guess so, I just didn't find any ghits for "Corneated sac". Ed è l'unica cosa che avevo trovato che avesse a che fare con l'aspetto di una clava

a keratinized sac


Explanation:
see
http://www.keratin.com/aa/aa022.shtml
Trichilemmal keratinization converts the stratified epithelium of the outer root sheath into a nuclear keratin without an intervening keratohyalin layer. (Keratohyalin is a colorless translucent protein present in the granules of the granular layer of the epidermis). Trichilemmal keratinization is a distinct type of keratinization in the hair follicle, not derived from the hair matrix. It occurs wherever outer root sheath is not apposed to inner root sheath, i.e. in anagen in the zone of sloughing just below the opening of the sebaceous duct; in catagen in the trichilemmal sac surrounding the lower end of the dying hair shaft where it forms the club of the telogen hair.

Trichilemmal keratinization, first described in Maurer in 1895 and rediscovered by Holmes (1968) and Pinkus (1968) converts the stratified epithelium of the outer root sheath into anuclear keratin without an intervening keratohyalin layer. It is a distinct seventh type of keratinization in the hair follicle, not derived from the hair matrix. It occurs wherever outer root sheath is not apposed to inner root sheath, in anagen in the zone of sloughing just below the opening of the sebaceous duct, in catagen in the trichilemmal sac surrounding the lower end of the dying hair shaft where it forms the club of the telogen hair.
