This study found that adding a 5 W CO2 laser to an Er:YAG laser improved hemostasis without significantly affecting mean hair counts or increasing lateral thermal damage in men with androgenetic alopecia.

This study suggests that Keratin 15 expression in stratified epithelia may be regulated by two distinct mechanisms involving PKC/AP-1 pathway for differentiation and FOXM1 for basal cells, challenging its reliability as a sole stem cell marker.

This study found that acanthosis nigricans in the knuckles correlates with higher insulin and HOMA-IR values, potentially serving as an early, accessible marker for insulin resistance even without excess weight.

In this study, hair composted with various organic materials, and inoculated with Bacillus subtilis, showed improved degradation and nutrient release, but temperatures below 33℃ limited composting efficiency, suggesting bacterial augmentation could aid sustainable management of keratin-rich waste.

In this study, monoclonal antibody B72.3 showed selective immunoreactivity to specific types of normal canine epithelial cells, primarily those involved in mucin production.

This review discusses the roles of human tissue kallikreins in skin physiology and pathology and reports no new findings, emphasizing their potential involvement in various skin functions and conditions.

This study found that specific human hair keratins are differentially expressed in the hair follicle, suggesting a shared pathway of epithelial differentiation between hair cortex and nail plate cells.

In this study, treatment with aqueous KCN selectively converted disulfide bonds to monosulfide crosslinks in hair, leading to changes in microstructural properties and rubberlike elasticity under specific laboratory conditions.

This study establishes a robust analytical method using mass spectrometry to comprehensively identify 170 chemical compounds in Xiaoban Kangfu capsules for enhanced quality control.

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.

This study found that down and guard hairs of Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats have distinct protein compositions and physical properties, with keratin-related proteins potentially influencing these differences.

The conclusion is that improved training and oversight for cosmetic procedures are recommended to better protect patients.

This study established a rapid and accurate ultra-performance liquid chromatographic method for chemical fingerprinting and analyzing Platycladi cacumen, effectively distinguishing batches based on geographical and climatic conditions.

This study investigated the TG5 gene polymorphism in Lithuanian beef cattle, finding that the CC genotype is associated with higher productivity traits, such as live weight and carcass weight, compared to other genotypes, and noted a statistically significant impact on these traits.

This meta-analysis suggests that combining Kang-ai injection with platinum-based chemotherapy may improve tumor response, performance status, immune functions, and reduce adverse reactions in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

This study found that 1064 nm QS Nd:YAG laser treatment effectively lightens hair and improves skin appearance in Indian subjects with minimal adverse effects, offering a safer alternative to chemical lightening products.

This study reported that anti-Ku-positive patients exhibited heterogeneous muscular features, primarily characterized by necrotizing fibers and vacuolar changes, and suggested that autophagy could be a significant mechanism involved in the pathogenesis.

This study used in vivo confocal microscopy and a ResNet34 deep learning model to classify meibomian gland images with an AUROC greater than 0.95, indicating its potential for automatic diagnosis and screening of meibomian gland dysfunction.

Hair differentiation starts earlier than thought, involving multiple type-II keratins.

This article reviews how environmental pollutants like glyphosate, fluoride, and electromagnetic fields may contribute to mitochondrial dysfunction and adverse health effects such as cancer and chronic diseases, but reports no new research findings.

This study developed a rapid and efficient in vitro method using high-performance liquid chromatography to screen for steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors, determining inhibition constants for Finasteride and Epristeride.

This study found that polymorphisms in the KAP8.1 gene were significantly associated with cashmere weight, length, and guard hair length in Chinese Inner Mongolian Cashmere goats, but not with fibre diameter.

This study found that modifying biphasic calcium phosphate/poly(methyl methacrylate) bone cement with human hair keratin improves its hydrophilicity, mechanical properties, and supports bone repair in rats, indicating potential for orthopedic applications.

This review discusses the evolution and revision of keratin protein nomenclature in light of genomic discoveries, reporting no new experimental results; the authors propose a new naming system for future keratin publications.

The study found that over-expressing ornithine decarboxylase in the outer root sheath of the hair follicle in mice increases UVB-induced tumor growth and invasive squamous cell carcinoma compared to inter-follicular epidermal keratinocytes.

This article highlights that early and high-dose corticosteroid therapy, along with immunosuppressive agents, is crucial for managing Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease, and emerging biological therapies may benefit refractory cases.

This study identified four keratin genes associated with hair follicle development that were expressed more highly in super fine wool Xinji sheep compared to fine wool sheep.
