This article discusses vaccination coverage for BCG, Polio, and Hepatitis B in Juiz de Fora using SUS data and reports no new results; the authors aim to hypothesize reasons for coverage variation.

In a depilated mouse model, this study found that blocking CXCL4 activity with an anti-CXCL4 monoclonal antibody promoted hair growth by inducing an earlier anagen phase, delaying hair follicle regression, and altering expression of genes and proteins related to hair growth and cell proliferation.

This research found that the microtubule catastrophe factor KIF18B plays a crucial role in promoting spindle orientation in keratinocytes, linking this process to cell fate decisions during hair follicle morphogenesis.

This study found that keratin 19 may be a marker for skin stem cells, helping to characterize these cells in different conditions and potentially explaining variations in healing rates between children and adults.

This study found that keratin 19, unlike keratin 14, forms less stable filaments with keratin 5, suggesting distinct assembly properties and potential unique roles in skin basal cells.

FGF18 helps keep hair in its resting phase, affecting hair growth cycles.

This study found that KF19418 stimulated hair follicle growth in vitro and accelerated hair regrowth in a mouse alopecia model, with effects comparable to minoxidil.

This study found that despite strong homology between two K16 genes, only one encoded a functional protein that assembled into keratin filaments in epithelial cells, possibly due to promoter strength differences.

In this study, researchers found that specific IL18 genetic variants may be linked to increased susceptibility to alopecia areata in a Korean population.

In this study, researchers at Johns Hopkins University found that Keratin 17 plays a signaling role in cell growth during a wound response by aiding mTOR pathway activation, beyond its structural functions.

This study found that intradermal injection of specific oligonucleotides altered hair growth and morphology in mice by inducing a dominant mutation in the K17 gene.

This study found that the K6/ODC transgenic mouse model is highly sensitive to identifying genotoxic carcinogens, showing 100% concordance with traditional rodent bioassays.

This article describes a case of a patient with both ophiasis-type alopecia areata and ring chromosome 18 syndrome but reports no new research findings.

Keratin 17 is important for hair and nail structure and affects pachyonychia congenita symptoms.

FGF18 controls hair growth rest phase.

In this study, researchers found that K17−/− mice suffered more severe hair follicle damage but showed reduced epidermal inflammation after ionizing radiation, with K17's absence leading to aberrant cell cycle progression due to altered p53 genome binding and reduced B-Myb degradation.

This study identified a new type II cytokeratin, named K6hf, exclusively expressed in the companion layer of the human hair follicle, distinguishing it from other keratins and suggesting a unique biochemical role.

This study suggests that FGF18 may enhance radioresistance in telogen hair follicles by inducing cell cycle arrest, potentially serving as a radioprotector against radiation-induced hair follicle damage.

This research identified K31 as a new marker for distinguishing clear secretory cells in human eccrine sweat glands, aiding in differentiating between distinct cell types within these glands.

This study found that keratin K80, structurally similar to hair keratins, is broadly expressed in various epithelial tissues and is involved in intermediate filament formation with multiple type I partners.

This study found that among the two highly homologous K16 genes on chromosome 17, only one produced a functional protein due to stronger promoter activity.

In this study, K19-lacZ transgenic mice exhibited epithelial-specific reporter gene expression in tissues such as the pancreas and stomach, suggesting the K19 promoter is a valuable tool for studying epithelial cell biology.

This study observed that SOX18 promotes the proliferation of dermal papilla cells in Hu sheep by activating the Wnt/β-Catenin signaling pathway, suggesting its key role in wool growth.

This study found that a newly identified gene, mK17n, may explain the lack of nail issues in mK17 null mice by compensating for mK17's function in the nail bed.

This study found that homozygous mutant mice with a hypomorphic CD18 mutation developed a chronic inflammatory skin disease resembling human psoriasis, potentially implicating additional genetic factors in disease susceptibility.

This abstract reviews the role of the human KRT 16 wild-type allele in skin and hair development and its association with certain genetic skin disorders, without presenting new findings.

This study demonstrates that overexpression of K16 in transgenic mice disrupts normal keratinization, leading to hyperkeratosis, acanthosis, and alterations in the skin's epithelial cells.
