This study proposes a new method to selectively isolate keratin-associated proteins and keratin from human hair, suggesting that KAPs may support keratin fibers in hair structure.

This pilot study found that hair metabolome analysis may help differentiate pregnancy complications from healthy pregnancies by revealing significant metabolite differences between trimesters.

This study found that permanent waving treatment induces structural changes in the cortex proteins of white human hair, significantly reducing its tensile strength without altering the S-S band intensity.

This genome-wide association study identified 20 genetic signals at 15 risk loci related to severe acne, revealing new insights into its genetic predisposition, particularly affecting skin structure and maintenance.

This study suggests that women with polycystic ovary syndrome may have a distinct metabolomic profile, differing in levels of amino acids, organic acids, and lipids compared to controls.

This study found that most pathogenic HR mutants associated with atrichia with papular lesions had abolished corepressor activity due to defective interactions with histone deacetylases.

This study found that cysteine supplementation significantly increases keratin expression in human keratinocytes, and counteracts the negative impact of iron deficiency on keratin production by enhancing iron availability for cellular processes.

This article examines the role and composition of integral hair lipids in forming a protective barrier similar to the skin's epidermal lipid layer and reports no new findings about their effects.

This study reports that hypomorphic alleles of the Ass1 gene in mice resemble human CTLN1, providing a potential model for preclinical studies and indicating that standard treatments for CTLN1 can rescue phenotypes.

This review summarized multiple molecular markers studied for their association with dry skin, finding considerable variability and uncertainty about which markers best indicate xerosis cutis.

This study describes various clinical phenotypes associated with FOXN1 mutations, finding that affected individuals may develop different severities of immunodeficiency based on their genetic mutations.

This study identified the Hairless (Hr) gene-encoded protein as a corepressor that plays a crucial role in maintaining skin and hair by regulating epithelial stem cell differentiation and gene expression via chromatin remodeling, which may impact both development and disease.

In this review, researchers examined the physiological benefits of Cheonggukjang, a salt-free fermented soybean paste, highlighting its various health-promoting components that may contribute to improved heart health, diabetes management, and cancer prevention, among other benefits.

This study in cashmere goats found that DNA methylation levels were lower during hair follicle differentiation compared to induction, suggesting it plays a critical role in gene regulation for hair morphogenesis.

In this study, researchers identified two potential urinary biomarkers, testosterone–glucuronide and 11α-hydroxyprogesterone, along with four candidate biomarkers, to help understand and diagnose polycystic ovary syndrome.

This case report describes a 39-year-old woman whose dermatomyositis-systemic lupus erythematosus overlap syndrome symptoms resolved after switching to tofacitinib.

This study found that valproic acid may interfere with the leucine metabolic pathway by inhibiting 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase and biotinidase, which could contribute to side effects like skin rash and hair loss in patients.

This review explains the mechanical composition and molecular interactions that determine hair's mechanical properties, without providing any new experimental findings.

This article reviews the toxic effects of mimosine in Leucaena leucocephala and discusses various methods to mitigate its toxicity but presents no new findings.

This source explores long COVID syndrome and identifies risk factors like older age, female gender, and comorbidities such as diabetes. It mentions potential diagnostic biomarkers, highlights ongoing clinical trials, and emphasizes the importance of vaccines and rehabilitation in managing long COVID.

This study identified differentially expressed mRNAs and lncRNAs in Hu sheep hair follicles, suggesting certain genes and pathways are involved in the development of wool curvature patterns.

Among Australian fur seals at one colony, this study found that alopecia, primarily affecting juvenile females, is linked to hair shaft fractures associated with low tyrosine and zinc levels, as well as higher pollutant exposure.

This review discusses dietary manipulation strategies in a mouse model of CBS deficiency and reports no new results; the authors emphasize the importance of understanding gene-diet interactions.

This study observed that glycine inhibited root growth and stimulated root hair development in habanero pepper seedlings, with ethylene signaling suggested to mediate these effects.

This article explores how various nutrients and metabolic processes impact wool and hair follicle function in animals but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that using the novel eyelid shampoo ESL improved eyelid hygiene, reduced dry eye symptoms in meibomian gland dysfunction patients, and increased eyelash length over 8 weeks.

This review covers various aspects of hair biology, pigmentation, and development, focusing on genetic and biochemical modulation of hair follicle components but reports no new findings.

This study found that protein extracts from human hair demonstrated significant antioxidant abilities, protecting human dermal fibroblasts from oxidative stress, suggesting potential for biomedical applications.

In this study, researchers found that the naked (N) gene in mice indirectly affects the synthesis of structural proteins in mouse hair, resulting in reduced high tyrosine protein content and unusual amino acid compositions.

This study demonstrated that mink hair growth and pelt quality significantly depend on dietary protein levels and DL-methionine supplementation during the growing-furring period.
