This study found that IL-18 rs187238 and rs1946518 single nucleotide polymorphisms were associated with increased susceptibility to alopecia areata in a Turkish population.

This genetic study identified four new keratin-associated protein genes in sheep, revealing significant sequence variation and suggesting complex evolutionary dynamics, with unique variants in some sheep breeds linking them to Romanov sheep ancestry.

This study shows that keratin 2e exhibits distinct temporal and regional expression patterns in fetal epidermis, suggesting different regulatory and functional roles from other epidermal keratins.

This study reported that K14 expression patterns and keratin filament organization in human skin's hair follicles differ from those in the epidermis, indicating distinct differentiation programs.

This study found that IL18 signaling plays a crucial role in the homing and retention of mature regulatory T cells in the mouse thymus, primarily by upregulating the chemokine receptor CCR6.

Collagen XVIII is crucial for maintaining tissue structure and function in the brain, kidneys, and hair.

Keratin filaments are crucial for cell structure and protection, with ongoing discoveries about their genes and functions.

This review discusses hair keratins and hair follicle-specific epithelial keratins and their association with inherited hair disorders, reporting no new clinical results.

This study found that the absence of Ctip2 in epidermal keratinocytes led to impaired wound healing in mice, affecting cell migration, proliferation, and hair follicle stem cell maintenance.

Terrestrial vertebrates have balanced keratin gene clusters, unlike teleost fish.

This study found that K15 is variably expressed in sheep and mouse hair follicles, with specific patterns suggesting a role in the early stages of keratinocyte differentiation.

This study presents the first detailed 3D models of the complete K1/K10 keratin dimer and identifies structural features and interactions that may inform understanding of keratin filament assembly.

Basal cell carcinoma shows keratin patterns similar to undifferentiated hair follicle cells.

This study suggests that pilomatricoma can differentiate towards various hair follicle structures, including hair matrix, hair cortex, follicular infundibulum, outer root sheath, and hair bulge.

Keratin gene clusters in humans and marsupials are similarly organized.

In this study, the researchers identified LHX2 as a specific marker for hair follicle placodes, differentiating them from eccrine sweat gland placodes through double immunofluorescence staining.

This study found that while 3D spheroid culture preserved sweat gland cell-specific markers better than 2D culture, their growth and structural organization were suboptimal, highlighting the need for improved culture systems.

This study found that keratin 19 and nuclear galectin-1 binding can transiently express in interfollicular epidermal cells after adhesion, suggesting keratin 19 should not be solely used as a stem cell activity marker.

In this study, a novel heterozygous transition mutation in the KRT86 gene was identified, which may be pathogenic for monilethrix in a Chinese family.

This study found that high levels of human cytokeratin 16 expression in transgenic mice lead to skin lesions and altered keratinocyte structure, suggesting potential implications for human skin disorders and wound healing.

This study found that KROX20 is crucial for hair follicle development and epidermal homeostasis, as its deletion in skin epithelial cells led to hair loss and increased epidermal thickness.

This article discusses the human KRT72 wild-type allele's role in hair formation and reports no new research findings.

FGF18 may influence hair loss in dogs.

This study explored the expression and potential functions of long non-coding RNAs in the skin pigmentation of Koi carp, revealing their involvement in pigmentation and differentiation mechanisms.

This study found that apocynin restored COL17A1 expression in human keratinocytes and reduced UVB-induced cellular senescence, DNA damage, and cell cycle arrest.

This study identified a novel KRT86 mutation associated with autosomal dominant monilethrix, expanding understanding of its genetic basis beyond known motifs.

This study observed that noncertified Kohl used in Iranian cities contained heavy metals within WHO suggested limits, but highlighted concerns due to high levels in some samples.
