In this review, researchers examined the molecular diversity and expression patterns of major skin appendage proteins, like keratins and EDC proteins, in tetrapods, highlighting recent findings in reptiles and birds and identifying knowledge gaps for future research.

This study analyzed the genetic variations of the KAP20-1 gene in Chinese Tan sheep lambs and found that the G variant was linked to an increased mean fibre curvature in their fine wool fibres, potentially influencing breeding strategies for this wool trait.

This study observed that using an environmentally friendly bovine milk permeate effectively and cleanly removes wool from sheepskins without harming the skin, and results in smoother leather compared to traditional chemical methods.

In this study, researchers conducted whole-genome resequencing of eight sheep breeds to identify additional genes associated with wool fineness, revealing 269 genes in fine wool and 319 in coarse wool breeds that are linked to significant traits and pathways.

This review discusses the potential of metabolic engineering to enable sustainable industrial-scale production of L-aspartate and its derivatives, detailing current microbial production progress, limiting factors, and future prospects with emerging technologies in synthetic biology.

This study found that collagen peptides from Mozambique tilapia significantly promoted hair regrowth and increased the proliferation of hair growth factors in vitro and in vivo, suggesting potential as supplements for hair loss prevention.

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.

MultiKano accurately identifies cell types in complex data better than existing methods.

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.

Among men with androgenetic alopecia, this study found that taking 5 mg of KX-826 twice daily significantly increased hair count compared to a placebo, with the treatment being well-tolerated and no serious adverse effects reported.

This study identified a new heterozygous mutation in the connexin 26 gene (c.263C>T; p.Ala88Val) in a premature neonate with KID syndrome, who later died from complications.

This article describes a new instrument, the KD spreader, designed to help novice physicians perform follicular unit extraction hair transplantation with reduced trauma and operator fatigue, but it does not report new clinical results.

This study suggests that KRTAP2-3 may serve as a novel biomarker to identify cells in the polyaneuploid cancer cell state, which is linked to therapy resistance and poor prognosis in prostate cancer.

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 article proposes an updated naming system for keratin-associated proteins and genes, aiming to improve data storage and retrieval by including species information and genetic variation.

This study observed that K5Cre +/+ transgenic mice develop a distinct phenotype characterized by wavy hair, curly whiskers, and an increased rate of papilloma malignant transformation.

The K15 promoter effectively targets stem cells in the hair follicle bulge.

This study found that large excisional wounds in rats across seven strains do not regenerate new hair follicles, unlike in mice, possibly due to differences in epidermal competence and transcriptional profiles.

This study found that novel thiol-reactive cross-linking agents, particularly APA, significantly improved the tensile strength and elasticity of human hair fibers by effectively regenerating disulfide bridges, with potential applications for advanced hair repair treatments in the cosmetic industry.

This study concluded that transgenic somatic cell nuclear transfer technology can produce cashmere goat blastocysts carrying the K2.9 gene using specific fibroblast cells and activation methods.

In this study, researchers formulated a nanosuspension of kenikir leaf extract that meets physical criteria and exhibits cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 breast cancer cells.

This study found that TPA treatment induced expression of keratins K6 and K16 in mouse epidermis, with K6 expressed across all cell layers and K16 only in post-mitotic cells.

This study concluded that adding Kanglaite injection to gemcitabine and cisplatin chemotherapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer improved response rates and reduced adverse side effects.

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 provides evidence for K1 and K10 derivatives' presence in the inner root sheath and hair cuticle, suggesting that these hair follicle parts may follow familiar keratinization principles.

In this study, researchers found that the keratin-associated protein 36-1 gene (KRTAP36-1) allele C is linked to variations in mean fibre curvature of fine wool in Chinese Tan lambs, suggesting its role in their distinctive curly coat.

This study identified a mutation hotspot in the caracul (Ca) locus of mice, implicating the mK6irs1/Krt2-6g gene in hair formation and potentially human hair and skin diseases.
