This study found strong evidence linking a keratin gene anomaly to pachyonychia congenita, supporting its role in affecting skin, nails, hair, and mucosa.

In this study, rabbit esophageal epithelial cells were found to produce K4 and K13 keratins in suprabasal cells, forming disulfide-crosslinked dimers that may support the physical stability of the esophageal lining.

This study found that the AabHLH112 transcription factor positively regulates the biosynthesis of β-caryophyllene, epi-cedrol, and β-farnesene in Artemisia annua.

This study identified a novel genetic mutation, c.429delC in the hairless gene, associated with atrichia with papular lesions in two Pakistani families.

A specific RNA increases hair stem cell growth and skin healing by affecting a protein through interaction with a microRNA.

In this study involving children with alopecia areata, researchers found that adding narrowband UVB 311 nm therapy to standard treatment significantly improved hair regrowth in those with coexisting atopic dermatitis compared to those without the condition.

This study introduced a new laser-only method called EKA for acne treatment, which is reported to be safe, painless, and heat-free, showing promising results for both acne and scar repair in initial sessions without combining with LED light.

This study found that dimethylarsinic acid significantly accelerates skin tumor development in hair follicle-targeted K6/ODC transgenic mice.

This study found that specific genetic variants of the KAP22-1 gene in Egyptian sheep breeds were significantly associated with wool traits like crimp, staple length, kemp score, and greasy color grade, suggesting their potential use in breeding programs.

This study found that the survival and proliferation of mouse melanocytes expressing the GNAQQ209L oncogene were impaired by interactions with the epidermal microenvironment, suggesting a possible mechanism for the rarity of these mutations in epidermal melanomas.

This study found that the Arabidopsis thaliana protein Formin 2 localizes to plasmodesmata and is crucial for regulating their permeability by anchoring actin filaments, which affects virus susceptibility.

This study found that interleukin-12 signals play a role in hair follicle immune privilege collapse in ex vivo alopecia areata models, and a TYK2 inhibitor may help prevent or reverse this process.

This case report describes an inflammatory skin reaction linked to kava kava ingestion, with the patient's condition resolving after treatment with oral prednisone and topical hydrocortisone.

This study found that the AR-E211 A allele is associated with a lower risk of both metastatic prostate cancer and androgenetic alopecia in an Australian population.

In this study, researchers found that the histone demethylase UTX is crucial for regulating skin differentiation through retinoic acid signaling, mainly impacting females, as males compensate with a Y-linked paralog.

This study observed that a CARASIL mouse model demonstrated abnormal behavior, vascular and cellular changes, and upregulation of the TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway, indicating its potential involvement in CARASIL pathogenesis.

This study identified a new ovine KRTAP21-1 gene variant in sheep, with wool yield affected by the variant, suggesting its potential as a genetic marker for improving wool production.

This study suggests that activating retinoic acid signalling can inhibit Wnt signalling and induce regression in certain skin tumors, providing potential therapeutic strategies for tumor regression.

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 article reviews keratosis follicularis squamosa, a keratinizing disorder predominantly found in the Japanese population, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report presents the first successful treatment of acne keloidalis nuchae with a combination of halobetasol 0.01% and tazarotene 0.045% lotion.

This study suggests that inactivation of β-catenin is necessary for chick retina regeneration, as it allows cells to enter the cell cycle during injury and promotes regeneration without needing FGF2.

In this study, researchers identified two types of potassium channels, BK and Kv4.2, in rat Merkel cells and reported that these channels play important roles in repolarizing action potentials and maintaining resting membrane potentials, potentially influencing tactile encoding in these cells.

In this study, AgK114 was found to be transiently induced in hamster epidermal keratinocytes following skin damage, suggesting its role in the recovery process after injury.
