This study identified a new keratin, K6irs, as a potential histological marker for the inner root sheath of hair follicles in mice and humans, and as a candidate gene for hereditary hair defects.

This study suggests that while PTH rP initially seemed to shorten the hair cycle by transitioning hair follicles from anagen to catagen, more relevant models indicate it ultimately accelerates and stimulates hair growth.

In this study, two novel clusters of keratin-associated protein genes on human chromosome 11 were analyzed, suggesting their products are crucial for hair formation due to preferential expression in hair roots.

This study found that the revised BASP classification for pattern hair loss, which addresses certain limitations of the original, could serve as an alternative option despite a decrease in clinical accuracy and ease of use.

This study reports a novel missense mutation in the HR gene in a 68-year-old Hungarian woman with alopecia universalis and limb deformities, suggesting a need for further research on its role in these conditions.

This study found that Dr. SKS Hair Booster Serum significantly improved hair shaft diameter, terminal hair counts, and hair growth rate in women with PCOS experiencing female pattern hair loss, without any reported adverse events, over a six-month treatment period.

This study found that the novel bacteriophage Halo KS-7 shows strong antibacterial activity against carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and significantly promotes wound healing in mice, making it a promising biocontrol agent for managing multidrug-resistant infections.

This study suggests that skin-derived precursors from Sox2(+) hair follicle dermal cells have the potential to function as dermal stem cells, supporting hair morphogenesis, dermal maintenance, and wound-healing.

This study found that the distribution of hair keratin family proteins varies in normal scalp hair follicles, which may aid in identifying the origin of hair neoplasms.

This study found that mice genetically modified to overexpress the serine protease inhibitor hurpin showed reduced UV-induced apoptosis but increased susceptibility to skin cancer after chemical carcinogenesis.

This review discusses the pathogenesis of hirsutism and related diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome in Korean women, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of the hairless protein (HR) in alopecia and cancer, noting its potential importance in cancer cell growth and survival, and reports no new experimental results.

In this study, AgK114 was found to be transiently induced in hamster epidermal keratinocytes following skin damage, suggesting its role in the recovery process after injury.

In human hair follicle keratinocytes, this study found that treatment with the pharmacological inhibitor QLT0267 led to a strong inhibition of proliferation and migration and induced nearly 100% apoptosis.

In this study, topical finasteride showed mild-to-moderate improvement in androgenetic alopecia among a cohort in Saudi Arabia, with combination therapy outperforming monotherapy. Adverse events were rare. The study highlights the need for prospective trials to clarify finasteride's standalone effects.

This study reports that compound heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in the HEPHL1 gene in a child were associated with abnormal hair and cognitive issues, linking altered ferroxidase activity to hair disorders.

This study found that human hair keratin scaffold material implanted in damaged rabbit muscle tissue degrades via the ubiquitin system and is further processed by macrophagocytes and lysosomes.

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.

In this study, researchers identified a novel KRT74 gene mutation associated with autosomal recessive pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia in a Pakistani family, expanding the known genetic causes of the disorder.

This study found that NKB placental mRNA expression was higher in women with PCOS, particularly in pregnancies with female offspring, suggesting its involvement in PCOS-related placental dysfunction.

This review discusses the genetic, autoinflammatory, and keratinization factors involved in hidradenitis suppurativa and presents the concept of classifying it as an autoinflammatory keratinization disease, but reports no new clinical results.

This study developed a mouse model lacking keratin 16 to replicate palmoplantar lesions, which may help uncover the molecular mechanisms driving these lesions in pachyonychia congenita and focal non-epidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma.

This study found that hepatic KRT79 expression is regulated by PPARA and is significantly associated with liver stress, suggesting it may serve as a diagnostic marker for liver diseases.

PMS nanoparticles improve damaged hair by protecting and restoring its surface and color.

This study found that hHbl gene expression is localized in the cortical cells of the human hair shaft and is notably high in pilomatricoma cells transitioning to hair shaft keratinocytes.

This study found that pretreatment with KP-Cryst fusion proteins effectively protected Asian and Caucasian virgin hair from thermal damage by maintaining higher water content and preventing structural changes during heat application.

This study found that PBX1 enhances the proliferation and reprogramming of hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells by activating the AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway, promoting NANOG expression, and inhibiting apoptosis.

In this chapter, the authors explore hyperdiluted CaHA as a new potential treatment for mild to moderate hair loss, providing preliminary insights into its application as an innovative option within regenerative therapies.

This study demonstrated that keratin K124 is specific to equine hoof lamellar tissue and established monoclonal antibodies that can specifically recognize K124 without cross-reacting with other tissues.
