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 Bsk phenotype in mice did not result from a recombination event between specific keratin genes, leaving the gene linked to this mutation unidentified.

This study found that certain genes were significantly associated with hair length in Inner Mongolia cashmere goats, potentially serving as molecular markers for different hair types.

This study found that as few as 90 base pairs of the K5 promoter directed keratinocyte-preferred expression in stratified epithelia, especially in epidermis, hair follicles, and tongue, showing cell type specificity.

This publication presents a library of geometric medicines designed to selectively target pathogenic bacteria and fungi with high precision while minimizing ecological harm, available for free on a non-commercial basis.

This study identified genetic variations that could serve as candidate markers for improving body conformation traits in Kazakh fat-tailed coarse-wool sheep through marker-assisted selection.

A new test helps find drugs to treat head and neck cancer by targeting c-Rel.

This study found that the methylation level at CpG III site 4 of the KRT17 gene promoter significantly influences wool production in Angora rabbits, suggesting its potential as an epigenetic marker for breeding high wool yield.

This study introduces Kalya Research, an AI-driven tool designed to identify and categorize literature on complementary and alternative medicines, showing its effectiveness compared to Medline in finding relevant alopecia research within the context of breast cancer patients.

This study found that mutations in the K17 gene underlie both pachyonychia congenita type 2 and steatocystoma multiplex phenotypes, regardless of the specific mutation involved.

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

This study identified 295 genes with differential expression in Yangtze River Delta White Goats that produce high-quality brush hair, suggesting these genes and the MAPK signaling pathway may influence hair quality traits.

This letter to the editor describes a case of acquired progressive kinking of the hair in a Korean female adolescent, but no new research findings are reported.

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.

In this study, researchers identified a novel homozygous variant in the FAM83G gene responsible for autosomal recessively inherited palmoplantar keratoderma with curly hair in a consanguineous Pakistani family, suggesting FAM83G plays a crucial role in skin and hair homeostasis.

This study observed that genetic variation in the ovine KRTAP22-1 gene is linked to increased wool yield and decreased fiber curvature in sheep, indicating its potential use in breeding programs.

In this study, water-soluble recombinant keratins, specifically RK81, were developed and used in microneedles to investigate their effect on hair growth, discovering that more than 40% of the hair follicles responded, demonstrating the potential for hair growth promotion.

A mutation in the KRT74 gene causes tightly curled hair.

In this study, the lack of cathepsin expression in Kaposi's sarcoma lesions suggests a benign hyperplastic origin for these lesions.

In this study, researchers reported that the application of refolded human K31 keratin protein significantly improved diameter, mechanical strength, and smoothness of chemically damaged hair after a single treatment.

This study found that Prss53-mutated rabbits exhibited curved hair and skeletal dyskinesia, suggesting a link between Prss53 loss and these traits, potentially involving disrupted calcium metabolism.

This study found that men with Kennedy disease have a significantly lower risk of androgenetic alopecia, likely due to androgen receptor gene alterations from the disease's polyglutamine expansion.

This study found that low-coverage whole-genome sequencing followed by imputation effectively identifies genetic variants associated with wool traits in Angora rabbits, offering a cost-efficient method for genetic research and breeding.

Keratin patterns in hair follicles help understand hair growth and potential hair and nail disorders.

This letter reports acquired progressive kinking of hair as a condition observed following COVID-19, but it presents no new scientific findings.

This study reported that an HS-associated NCSTN mutation in iPSC-derived skin organoids led to altered hair follicle stem cell differentiation and increased expression of proteins linked to HS inflammation.

This study found that a specific genetic mutation in the Fgf5 gene may contribute to the long-hair trait in Angora rabbits by reducing the binding capacity of the FGF5 protein.
