This research identified that the constitutive and inducible expression of the Keratin 6 gene in transgenic mice skin is controlled by multiple regulatory elements spread throughout its 5' flanking region.

This research observed that sheep and rabbit KAP6 genes, expressed in hair follicle cells, have high sequence similarity and indicate conservation due to evolutionary selection pressures.

This study found that a mutation in the seventh exon of the KRT86 gene plays a major role in the pathogenesis of monilethrix in a Chinese family.

This study found that in mouse pancreatic β-cells, the disruption of keratin filaments due to a specific mutation in keratin 18 resulted in altered GLUT2 localization, with less GLUT2 present on the plasma membrane compared to cells with normal keratin.

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.

This study found that the newly developed hair product K-30 increased both protein content and weight in chemically damaged hair to levels similar to healthy hair, unlike traditional products that only temporarily improve texture.

In this study, the KPAI and KP-IGA scoring systems for assessing keratosis pilaris showed excellent interrater and intrarater reliability, offering standardized measures for clinical and research use.

This study found that keratin 17 and TNFα play interdependent roles in regulating hair follicle cycling, with TNFα required for the anagen–catagen transition and its ablation partially rescuing hair cycling defects in K17-null mice.

This study identified and characterized a gene called 4C32, which is expressed in the periderm of embryonic mouse skin and has a structure similar to keratin-associated proteins.

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 identified a novel MTS24-positive murine keratinocyte population with increased colony-forming ability, suggesting these cells may serve as a new reservoir of proliferative progenitor or stem cells in hair follicles.

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 identified a new mutation in SELH/Bc mice causing distinctive whisker and body hair abnormalities, mapped near the type I keratin cluster on chromosome 11.

This study found that the expressions of CDK inhibitors p21waf1/cip1 and p27kip1 were higher during the anagen phase compared to telogen, suggesting a role in follicular epithelial cell differentiation.

This study found that polymorphisms in the KAP8.2 gene in Chinese Inner Mongolia cashmere goats are associated with variations in cashmere fibre diameter, suggesting its potential as a molecular marker for this trait.

This study identified novel genetic variations in the KRTAP22-2 gene among eight sheep breeds but found no association between these genotypes and wool fibre traits, indicating possible species-specific differences compared to goats.

This study found that KAP and KRTAP genes positively correlate with the cashmere growth cycle, and their regulation aligns with the growth phases of cashmere in secondary hair follicles.

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.

In this study, genetic variants in the KRT25 and SP6 genes were found to be responsible for curly hair in horses, with the KRT25 variant also causing hypotrichosis due to an epistatic effect.

This meta-analysis suggests that combining Kang-ai injection with platinum-based chemotherapy may improve tumor response, performance status, immune functions, and reduce adverse reactions in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

This study identified the expression sites of five KAP5 genes on human chromosome 11q13.5 in scalp skin sections but did not explore their detailed distribution within hair follicles.

This study characterized a new human keratin, hK6irs1, specifically found in the inner root sheath of hair follicles, which suggests its role in the structural integrity and guidance of growing hair shafts.

Keratin-associated proteins are crucial for hair strength and structure.

This study found that genetic variants in the goat KRTAP22-2 gene are associated with the mean fiber diameter of cashmere in Longdong Cashmere goats, suggesting these variants could serve as molecular markers for improving cashmere traits.

A mutation in the KRT74 gene causes tightly curled hair.

This study identified a monoclonal antibody, HKN-2, that recognizes specific cells in human skin and may indicate a common antigenic determinant between hair and other skin epithelial tissues.

This study found that KLF4 expression in mouse hair follicle stem cells is important for effective cutaneous wound healing, with its knockdown leading to reduced stem cell populations and delayed healing.

This study found that systemic treatment with DS77754007, a KLK5 inhibitor, improved skin symptoms in a mouse model of Netherton Syndrome more effectively than certain antibody treatments, suggesting KLK5 inhibition as a promising therapeutic approach for this condition.
