In this study, the researchers used the dual-flow-RootChip to show that Arabidopsis roots can locally adapt their hair development in response to asymmetric phosphate conditions.

This study found that transcription factors HOXC13, LEF1, and FOXN1 repress DSG4 transcription, with the Notch pathway possibly involved in maintaining DSG4 expression in hair follicles.

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 review discusses the structure, expression, regulation, and potential functions of the nuclear receptor coactivator NcoA4 in cancerous and non-cancerous pathologies, but reports no new results.

This study used cryoelectron microscopy to unveil the structure of LPA-bound human LPAR6, revealing unique ligand binding and recognition modes distinct from LPAR1, which may aid in designing targeted compounds for hair loss and cancer.

This study found that rapamycin effectively inhibits TPA-induced keratinocyte proliferation and skin tumor promotion by targeting mTORC1 signaling in both wild-type and transgenic mice.

This study demonstrated that keratin K124 is specific to equine hoof lamellar tissue and established monoclonal antibodies that can specifically recognize K124 without cross-reacting with other tissues.

Runx1 helps control the KAP5 gene in human hair follicles.

This study describes a method to extract and characterize keratin particles from human hair, finding they can encapsulate the anticancer drug Paclitaxel with significant efficiency, releasing it in a pH-dependent manner potentially beneficial for targeted cancer treatment.

This study found that phenyl-imidazole sulfonamide derivatives, particularly ISCK03, inhibited c-kit signaling and promoted depigmentation in various experimental settings, suggesting potential use as skin-whitening agents.

This study found that the peptide derivative beta-Ala-Pro-Dab-NHbenzyl may reduce wrinkles and sebum production in human skin by inhibiting dipeptidyl peptidase 4, suggesting potential for acne and skin inflammation treatment.

This study reports that in ovarian cell development, FSH-induced OCT4 expression is regulated through the GSK3β/β-catenin pathway mediated by the PI3K/Akt pathway.

This study investigated autophagy activator ICP5249 and found it promotes hair growth by enhancing cell proliferation and autophagy-related markers in human dermal papilla cells and hair follicles, with AMPKα playing a regulatory role, suggesting its potential as a hair growth ingredient.

This study found that hair with lower levels of keratin associated proteins reduced the foreign body response in mouse subcutaneous implant tests compared to hair with higher keratin levels.

P-3074 effectively blocks scalp DHT better than oral finasteride.

RAPK is a rare skin disorder with pigmented spots, mainly on hands and feet, starting in youth.

This study found that increased intracellular expression of thymosin β4 is necessary and sufficient to induce PAI-1 gene expression in endothelial cells, potentially mediated through Ku80 as a novel receptor.

This chapter discusses the synthesis and analysis of near-infrared fluorescent activity-based probes for imaging cysteine protease activity, reporting potential benefits for disease diagnosis but noting challenges in imaging specific locations with high cathepsin activity.

This study found that mitochondrial fusion regulator Opa1 is crucial for maintaining melanocyte stem cells during the hair follicle cycle in mice, with Opa1 deficiency leading to impaired SCF-KIT signaling, reduced melanocyte populations, and early hair graying.

This study explored the potential of human hair keratin as a filtration material, finding that it may effectively absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutanesulfonate. The researchers reported significant binding affinities through molecular simulations, supporting further investigation into keratin's use for water purification.

This study found that the catalytically inactive serine protease CAP1/Prss8 can still induce skin disorders in mice and is subject to inhibition by nexin-1, independent of its catalytic activity.

In this study, AgK114 was found to be transiently induced in hamster epidermal keratinocytes following skin damage, suggesting its role in the recovery process after injury.

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

This study found that Ber-EP4 immunoreactivity is present in specific areas of hair follicles across different stages of the hair cycle, particularly in the secondary hair germ, but not in mature anagen follicles.

This study found that deleting the Mof gene in mouse skin leads to severe defects in skin cell self-renewal, differentiation, and hair follicle growth, indicating that MOF is crucial for mitochondrial and ciliary gene expression and essential for skin development.

p14ARF and p16Ink4a cause hair follicle stem cell aging and dysfunction.

This study identified two key pentapeptide quasi-repeats in human keratin-associated proteins, which are similar to motifs found in sheep wool.
