Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.

Genetic variations in hair keratin proteins exist but don't significantly affect hair structure.

Keratin genes change gradually during skin cell development and should be used carefully as biomarkers.

High glycine–tyrosine keratin-associated proteins help make hair strong and maintain its shape.

Hair proteins have weak spots in their α-helical segments.

The protein p53 directly reduces the production of Keratin 17, a skin and hair protein, in rats with radiation dermatitis.

Researchers found four genes that could help diagnose severe alopecia areata early.

Keratin gene expression helps understand different types of skin cells and their development, and should be used carefully as biological markers.

Keratin 18 helps diagnose and predict cancer progression and affects cancer growth and spread.

Found 32 genes linked to male baldness, affecting hair growth and stress-related pathways.

The document concludes that over 500 genes are linked to hair disorders and this knowledge is important for creating new treatments.

Researchers identified genes and proteins that may influence wool thickness in sheep.

Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.

Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds is caused by structural defects in hair shafts due to downregulated genes and proteins.

Keratin-associated proteins are part of the developing hair fiber cuticle.

Alopecia areata involves immune activation in the scalp, suggesting treatments targeting TH1, TH2, and IL-23 pathways.

New gene identification techniques have improved the understanding and classification of inherited hair disorders.

Hair in mammals likely evolved from glandular structures, not scales.

Melatonin treatment increases a specific RNA in goat cells that boosts cashmere growth.

Bleaching damages hair by reducing the quality of keratin and keratin-associated proteins.

Minoxidil foam 5% effectively treats hair loss in both frontal and vertex scalp regions.

The genes KRT25 and SP6 affect curly hair in horses, with KRT25 also causing hair loss. If both genes are mutated, the horse gets curly hair and hair loss. KRT25 can hide the effect of SP6.

The research found that people's hair proteins vary, especially by ethnicity and body part, which could help identify individuals in forensic science.

The research found that people's hair proteins vary by individual and body part, with some differences between ethnic groups, which could help in forensics.

A gene variant causes patched hair loss in mice, similar to alopecia areata in humans.

Chicken feather growth involves specific genes and shares similarities with hair development.

Human hair proteins vary by individual, body site, and ethnicity, useful for forensics.

Plucked hairs can be used instead of skin biopsies to study hair traits because they contain specific cells related to hair.

KRTAP2-3 could help predict cancer recurrence by identifying specific cancer cells.

Hairlessness in mammals is due to complex genetic changes in both genes and regulatory regions.
