This study found that Frizzled genes Fzd3 and Fzd6 are redundantly involved in controlling hair follicle polarity in mice, but operate through distinct mechanisms, highlighting their complex role in hair orientation.

This study demonstrated that a specific 9-kbp fragment of the bovine keratin 6 gene effectively directs tissue-specific and inducible expression in transgenic mice, suggesting potential applications for targeted gene therapy in hyperproliferative skin conditions.

This study reports the cloning and expression details of two new human type II keratins, K6irs3 and K6irs4, in the hair follicle's inner root sheath, suggesting a distinct functional role related to hair structure.

This study describes the expression patterns of type I inner root sheath keratin proteins K25–K28 in human hair follicles, highlighting their distinct distribution within different layers.

This case report highlights two instances of suspected human herpesvirus 6 reactivation in patients with existing psychiatric disorders, underscoring the need for further research into the relationship between viral reactivation and psychiatric conditions.

This study suggests that the C-terminal of AHF is crucial for its binding to keratin bundles and modulating the keratin meshwork in hair follicles.

This study found that Sp6 overproduction in ameloblast-lineage cells increased cell proliferation and ameloblastin expression, suggesting that Sp6 promotes amelogenesis by inhibiting follistatin gene expression.

This study found that CTCF is crucial for proper skin and hair follicle development in mice, affecting keratinocyte differentiation and gene expression in keratin loci.

In this study, researchers identified two new keratin-associated proteins, hKAP1.6 and hKAP1.7, in human hair follicles, contributing to understanding hair fiber differentiation.

This study found that alopecia induced by CDK4/6 inhibitors in breast cancer patients occurs more quickly and is more resistant to minoxidil treatment compared to endocrine therapy-induced alopecia.

This study found that Rab5c is crucial for proper HSPC development in zebrafish embryos by regulating Notch and AKT signaling through endocytic trafficking, with both deficiency and overactivation leading to production defects.

In this study, researchers found that circERCC6, a circular RNA identified in cashmere goat hair follicles, helps activate secondary hair follicle stem cells, with its role dependent on specific m6A modifications that interact with miR-412-3p to regulate BNC2 expression.

This study identified a new cytokeratin, mK6irs, specifically expressed in the inner root sheath of mouse hair follicles, distinguishing it as a member of the type II cytokeratin family.

This study found that the long non-coding RNA lnc056 promotes the proliferation of hair follicle stem cells by upregulating TRIP6 expression through interaction with the transcription factor HNRNPUL1, suggesting a potential target for hair loss treatment.

This study found that the CXXC5 protein is overexpressed in diabetic foot ulcer tissues, suppressing wound healing, and that the small molecule KY19334 accelerated healing in diabetic mice by activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

This study concluded that KLF4 is a crucial regulator of hair follicle stem cell quiescence and may work by interacting with multiple transcription factors to control related genes.

This proof-of-concept study reported that a new, ultra-fast, one-step immunohistochemistry method improved the interpretation of Mohs surgery slides, particularly for poorly differentiated tumors.

In this study, researchers observed distinct morphological differences in hair follicles of mutant mouse genotypes, influenced by the expression levels of keratin2-6g, which is essential for proper hair follicle development.

This study found that regulatory sequences crucial for inducing K6a expression in response to epidermal injury are located in specific upstream regions of the K6a gene in transgenic mice.

Recombinant human TSG-6 speeds up wound healing in diabetic mice.

This study found that Hopx labels a long-lived progenitor population in hair follicles, which contributes to hair follicle stem cell homeostasis and has an alternative origin from previously thought progenitors.

Krt6a-Cre transgenic mice help study gene effects on hair follicle development and tumor suppression.

This case report describes a novel mutation in the CDH3 gene in an 11-year-old Iranian boy with sparse scalp hair and macular dystrophy, leading to altered P-cadherin synthesis.

This study found that the absence of Hes1 in hair follicles delays secondary hair germ activation and shortens the anagen phase, impacting HFSC self-renewal and long-term hair regeneration.

This study found that a nonsense mutation in the Cst6 gene of mice leads to severe skin and hair abnormalities, suggesting that cystatin M/E is crucial for epidermal function and viability.

This study identified a novel mutation, R430Q in the KRT86 gene, in a Han family with monilethrix, which may contribute to the disease's pathogenic mechanism.

A missing mK6irs1 gene causes hair loss in mice.

This case report highlights the association of three CX26 gene mutations, particularly the D50N mutation, with keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome and its potential role in scalp squamous cell carcinoma and breast cancer development in a patient.

This study identified two novel point mutations in the hHb6 gene associated with monilethrix, suggesting these mutations could serve as diagnostic markers for this genetic hair disorder.
