This study identified a missense mutation in the rat Desmoglein 4 gene, causing abnormal hair shaft development in lanceolate hair mutant rats by disrupting a critical calcium binding site.

This study shows that ZIP7 is a functional zinc transporter in mammalian cells, facilitating the movement of zinc from the Golgi apparatus to the cytoplasm.

This study found that miR-432 inhibits KRT83 expression, revealing potential molecular mechanisms for the formation of curly fleece in Tan sheep and suggesting implications for understanding curly hair formation in humans.

In this study, researchers found multiple somatic mutations and copy number variations in a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, providing novel insights into its potential genetic mechanisms.

In this study, researchers found that syntaxin 9, a novel syntaxin family member, interacts specifically with the epidermal growth factor receptor and may influence its transport and signaling in some epithelial cells.

This study developed a new method to analyze Cantú syndrome mutations in KATP channels, finding that while Kir6.1 mutations increase sensitivity to potassium channel openers, SUR2B mutations show reduced sensitivity, but both result in marked hyperpolarization compared to wild-type channels under basal conditions.

This study found that reduced cytokinin levels allow plants to adapt to low potassium conditions by enhancing root hair growth, reactive oxygen species accumulation, and expression of a key potassium transporter gene.

This study found that the novel bacteriophage Halo KS-7 shows strong antibacterial activity against carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and significantly promotes wound healing in mice, making it a promising biocontrol agent for managing multidrug-resistant infections.

Specific cross-linkages help make hair proteins stable and strong.

This study identified a 582-bp deletion upstream of LHX2 in cashmere goats, likely linked to hair follicle development and cashmere production, providing insights into genetic factors in cashmere trait selection.

This study describes a novel hairless mutant rat strain, F344-Hr(krh), developed via ENU mutagenesis, which provides a model for skin disease and potentially focal glomerulosclerosis due to specific genetic mutations.

This proof-of-concept study reported that a new, ultra-fast, one-step immunohistochemistry method improved the interpretation of Mohs surgery slides, particularly for poorly differentiated tumors.

In this study, injecting chimeric RNA–DNA oligonucleotides into mice skin caused a temporary mutation in keratin 17, altering hair morphology, but the mutation was transient due to genetic compensation or cell replacement.

In human hair follicle keratinocytes, this study found that treatment with the pharmacological inhibitor QLT0267 led to a strong inhibition of proliferation and migration and induced nearly 100% apoptosis.

This study found that a newly produced version of KGF-1 with 135 residues maintained biological activity and could serve as an alternative to the standard 140-residue KGF-1.

In this study, PEG and keratin scaffolds selectively influenced protein release rates based on charge and size, suggesting their potential for targeted delivery of protein therapeutics.

This study identified differentially expressed proteins and pathways potentially involved in wool bending in Zhongwei goats, with specific genes like COL6A1 and CRNN emerging as important candidates in this process.

This study found that at pH 9.0, CYS penetrated less and caused less damage to virgin human hair than TG because it barely reached the cortex region.

This study found that intradermal injection of specific oligonucleotides altered hair growth and morphology in mice by inducing a dominant mutation in the K17 gene.

This study discovered nine human type I hair keratin genes, including a transcribed pseudogene, in a 190 kbp genomic region, revealing three gene subclusters based on sequence homologies.

This study provides evidence supporting a regulatory relationship between the transcriptional regulator Hoxc13 and Krtap16 genes, which are crucial for proper hair growth in mice.

This publication presents a library of precision geometric medicines that reportedly kill harmful bacteria and fungi while sparing beneficial organisms, using a delivery system that targets pathogens specifically and avoids ecological harm.

This study found that a higher relative expression of the keratin associated protein 8.1 gene in Liaoning cashmere goats' skin and hair follicles was associated with thinner cashmere fiber.

This study found that the wavy coat trait in Nakano cataract mice is polygenic, involving major and minor genes, and resembles human curly scalp hair associated with the PRSS53 gene alteration.

This study analyzed inner root sheath-specific genes in Tan sheep during various growth stages, finding peak expression at birth. The pattern of genes KRT71, KRT72, and TCHH is consistent with wool crimp, potentially influencing wool morphology.

In this study, kamishoyosangoshimotsuto extract improved skin moisture, texture, and brightness, as well as hair thickness and strength in women with skin and scalp hair problems over 24 weeks.

In this study, the researchers identified a third keratin 6 gene in mice and developed a double knockout model that could aid in hair growth research.

This study observed that human hair keratin showed distinct morphological features depending on the dissolution speed, which could have potential applications in clinical settings for developing self-tendons.

This study describes a Japanese family with monilethrix and found no clear genotype/phenotype correlation in cases with the E413K mutation in hHb6.
