This study reports that a widespread founder SERPINB7 mutation underlies Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis, which is a common form of palmoplantar keratosis in Asian populations.

This study revealed that human keratin-associated protein genes are expressed in specific patterns in hair fiber regions and vary in size, with some variations distinct across different populations.

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.

ZPK helps skin cells mature and may affect skin health.

This study identified goat hair keratin gHaⅠ with strong expression in the cortex of hair follicles, showing high sequence homology to sheep keratin.

KAP genes are crucial for hair development and show both shared and unique traits in humans, chimpanzees, and baboons.

In this study, Nε-(carboxymethyl) lysine was found to weaken hair follicle morphogenesis and inhibit essential cell activities in a model simulating accumulated glycation.

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 reports the first cases of recessive KRT17-related pachyonychia congenita involving all ectodermal derivatives in seven members of two consanguineous Pakistani families.

TRIV-509 quickly improves skin barrier and cell health in atopic dermatitis.

This study used whole-genome resequencing to analyze genetic diversity and selection in 17 rabbit breeds, identifying genes linked to traits like coat color and body size, which could inform breeding and conservation efforts.

This study found that FGF5-/- rabbits exhibited a significant long hair phenotype by prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting FGF5 acts as a negative regulator of hair growth.

This study identified that dominant mutations in the KLHL24 gene cause epidermolysis bullosa through dysregulated autoubiquitination, leading to excessive degradation of keratin 14.

This study evaluated krokot extract as a hair tonic and found it to be microbiologically safe, effective at extending and increasing hair weight, non-irritating, and generally well-received in terms of aroma and color when tested on rabbits.

This study reported that a Megsin-Cre transgene enables genetic manipulation primarily in skin, forestomach, and esophagus tissues, offering a new tool for studying development and diseases in these areas.

In this study, finasteride was found to significantly reduce DHT levels and affect spermatogenic markers in rats, while DA-9401 co-treatment indicated potential ameliorative effects.

This abstract provides a graphic illustrating that mice lacking the Sgk3 gene exhibit thin coats and abnormal hair, suggesting a role for Sgk3 kinase in hair follicle growth, but reports no new experimental findings.

In this study, KRTAP28-1 variants were associated with wool fibre diameter in sheep, suggesting potential as a gene marker for reducing fibre diameter.

This study found that using the "Khalgai" hair care products enriched with copper and zinc for 28 days led to increased hair density, diameter, and follicular unit count in women, indicating improved hair morphology.

This study highlighted Keratin 17's critical role in cancer therapy resistance across several malignancies, involving various signaling pathways, and identified it as a significant biomarker and potential therapeutic target, particularly in reversing resistance.

This study found that the stability of the coiled-coil structure in human hair keratin is maintained by ion-pairing and hydrophobic interactions, which are disrupted as pH approaches 7.0.

Krt6a-Cre transgenic mice help study gene effects on hair follicle development and tumor suppression.

This abstract reviews the role of the human KRT 16 wild-type allele in skin and hair development and its association with certain genetic skin disorders, without presenting new findings.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.

This study found that the sebum partition coefficient (K(sebum)) for some drugs differs from the stratum corneum partition coefficient (K(sc)), indicating its importance for targeted drug delivery into hair and sebaceous follicles.

This study found that KY19382, a small molecule activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, significantly improved wound healing by enhancing cell migration, increasing collagen and stem cell markers, and accelerating re-epithelialization and neo-epidermis formation in a murine model without causing significant cytotoxicity.

Focus on general hair care and lifestyle changes.

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.
