research Pepsin Digestion for Proteomic Studies of the Human Hair Shaft
This study found that pepsin digestion was more effective than trypsin at identifying keratin-associated proteins in human hair shafts and confirmed that trypsin introduced a bias in the analysis of protein composition that pepsin can correct.

research A methodological exploration of distinguishing hair quality based on hair proteomics
This study found that the PLEE method increased hair protein extraction efficiency threefold and that bleaching hair reduced the coverage of keratin and associated proteins, leading to poorer hair quality, though it did not affect the overall protein identification.
research Defining and targeting differentiation of non-melanoma skin cancer
This study found that basal cell carcinoma exhibits patterns of hair follicle differentiation but is stuck in telogen arrest, which can be rescued by adding noggin and TGF-β2 in vitro.
research A Novel Epithelial Keratin, hK6irs1, is Expressed Differentially in All Layers of the Inner Root Sheath, Including Specialized Huxley Cells (Flügelzellen) of the Human Hair Follicle
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.
research Kinase Inhibition with BAY 43–9006 in Renal Cell Carcinoma
In this Phase II study, BAY 43–9006, taken orally for renal cell carcinoma, stabilized disease in 30% of patients, with 40% responding positively, although the targets remain unclear.
research Anti‐keratin Monoclonal Antibody against Basal Cell Epithelioma Keratin: BKN‐1
This study reports that the monoclonal antibody BKN-1 specifically stained basal cell epithelioma cells and certain normal skin structures, indicating a similarity in keratin expression between the tumor and follicular epithelium below the isthmus portion.
research hKAP1.6 and hKAP1.7, Two Novel Human High Sulfur Keratin-Associated Proteins are Expressed in the Hair Follicle Cortex
In this study, researchers identified two new keratin-associated proteins, hKAP1.6 and hKAP1.7, in human hair follicles, contributing to understanding hair fiber differentiation.
research lncRNAs UC.145 and PRKG1-AS1 Determine the Functional Output of DKK1 in Regulating the Wnt Signaling Pathway in Gastric Cancer
This study found that UC.145 influences DKK1 methylation and Wnt signaling in gastric cancer, with implications for patient survival and its potential as a predictive biomarker.
research Against the Rules: Human Keratin K80
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.
research KRT72 wt Allele
This article discusses the human KRT72 wild-type allele's role in hair formation and reports no new research findings.
research Cloning of human, murine, and marsupial keratin 7 and a survey of K7 expression in the mouse
This study reports that K7 expression patterns observed in mice are similar to those in humans, revealing previously unreported expression in the gastrointestinal tract, tongue, and various "hard" epithelial tissues.
research Heterozygous KRT32 variant is responsible for autosomal dominant loose anagen hair syndrome
In this study, researchers identified the c.296C>T (p.T99I) variant in the KRT32 gene, which co-segregates with loose anagen hair syndrome, and found it decreases binding affinity to KRT82, potentially weakening hair anchorage.
research Polymorphism of keratin-associated protein (KAP) 7 gene and its association with wool traits in Rambouillet sheep
This study suggests that the KAP 7 gene may serve as a potential molecular marker for genetic selection to improve staple length and greasy fleece weight in Rambouillet sheep.
research Micro‐RNA‐31 controls hair cycle‐associated changes in gene expression programs of the skin and hair follicle
In this study, miR-31 was found to play a significant role in hair cycle regulation in mice by controlling key gene expressions involved in hair growth and differentiation.
research Polymorphisms in the Human High Sulfur Hair Keratin-associated Protein 1, KAP1, Gene Family
In this study, researchers found that size polymorphisms in certain hKAP1 genes are linked to the hKAP1.1B and hKAP1.3 genes, arising from intragenic deletions and duplications in Japanese and Caucasian populations.
research America - A Diversity of Life Styles.
This Phase II study found that BAY 43-9006, given at 400 mg orally twice daily, led to stable disease in 30% and tumor reduction in 40% of renal cell carcinoma patients.
research Kevis P.F. – an adjunctive hair maintenance option

research A cluster of 21 keratin-associated protein genes within introns of another gene on human chromosome 21q22.3
In this study, researchers identified a cluster of hair-specific keratin-associated protein genes within the 21q22.3 region, revealing a novel transcription mechanism involving TSPEAR/C21orf29 that may bypass typical transcriptional termination sites.
