October 2022 in “PubMed” This study identified 674 differentially expressed proteins in the skin tissues of male and female Chinese merino sheep, suggesting gender-specific molecular mechanisms that may affect wool traits.
May 2025 in “Journal of Developmental Biology” This study reports that KRTAP-like proteins, which resemble keratin-associated proteins found in mammals, are also present in the cornified teeth of various lamprey species, suggesting these proteins may serve similar functions in skin appendages across different vertebrates despite independent evolutionary origins.

October 2022 in “Frontiers in Surgery” This review discusses the role of proteomics in understanding skin diseases such as cancers and psoriasis, with findings suggesting cell death and metabolism as major areas of focus, but reports no new experimental results.
November 2024 in “International Journal of Cosmetic Science” In this study, varying pH levels from 3 to 12 were found to impact hair structure and proteins, with optimal hair health observed between pH 5 and pH 7, while extreme acidic or alkaline conditions notably affected hair morphology and proteome.
