This study found that KAP7.1 and KAP8.2 genes were significantly more expressed in secondary hair follicles than primary follicles, suggesting their role in regulating cashmere fiber diameter.

The LTF gene may help predict and manage nonspecific orbital inflammation.

This study identified the expression sites of five KAP5 genes on human chromosome 11q13.5 in scalp skin sections but did not explore their detailed distribution within hair follicles.

This study identified a novel recessive mutation in mice causing lethal congenital lamellar ichthyosis, with skin and hair follicle alterations similar to human congenital ichthyoses, linked to a specific genetic defect affecting Fatp4.

This study reports the cloning and expression details of two new human type II keratins, K6irs3 and K6irs4, in the hair follicle's inner root sheath, suggesting a distinct functional role related to hair structure.

This case report documents a 10-year-old girl with keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans, highlighting its rarity, particularly in females, and noting limited treatment success.

This article introduces the Follicular Unit Excision-Linear Ellipse (FUE-LE) technique, which integrates both FUE and the linear ellipse method for optimal hair restoration, but presents no new clinical results.

This study found that while most mice lacking MK6a and MK6b genes died from tongue epithelium disintegration, about 25% survived and showed no hair or nail defects due to a newly discovered MK6hf gene.

This study found that the LEF-1 binding site acts as an enhancer element for the wool keratin intermediate filament gene promoter in hair follicle cortex, with specificity regulated by additional factors.

This review discusses cornea-specific keratin expression patterns in human and mouse development and reports no new experimental results; it highlights the need for investigating keratin mutations' role in pathology.

This study suggests that linalool, a common allergen in personal care products, may contribute to frontal fibrosing alopecia pathogenesis by triggering immune responses and depleting hair follicle stem cells, especially in sensitized individuals.

In this case report, a 12-year-old girl was diagnosed with alopecia as part of the rare ALX4-related frontonasal dysplasia sequence, highlighting the condition's uniqueness in pediatric dermatology.

This study found that conditional deletion of Mof in mice resulted in severe defects in skin development, including compromised epidermal differentiation and hair growth, leading to perinatal lethality.

Keratin 79 cells help form and regenerate hair canals.

This report describes the first known case of Kaposi's varicelliform eruption occurring after a follicular unit extraction procedure, possibly linked to surgical trauma and post-surgical steroid use.

This study identified 16 novel high sulfur KAP genes and two KAP pseudogenes on chromosome 21q23, showing expression in a specific region of the hair fiber cuticle.

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.

This study identified a new transcriptional repressor, Zfp157, as a target of Stat6 in the mammary gland, expressing in various tissues during mouse embryogenesis and adulthood.

This study found that a specific T-cell receptor motif associated with lipid-antigen stimulation may play a role in the pathogenesis of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides.

This study suggests that the KAP 7 gene may serve as a potential molecular marker for genetic selection to improve staple length and greasy fleece weight in Rambouillet sheep.

This study found that canine hair follicle stem cells in vitro expressed markers associated with multipotency, suggesting their potential role in the hair cycle.

This case report highlights the diagnostic challenge of inverted follicular keratosis, emphasizing the importance of histopathology for accurate differentiation from malignancies.

In this study, the authors emphasize that IFK, though rare in young patients, should be considered when diagnosing scalp lesions in all age groups, highlighting the importance of recognizing its dermoscopic and histopathologic features to avoid misdiagnosis and ensure proper management.

In this study, the CYP 21A2 gene p.V281L mutation was associated with an increased susceptibility to familial frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting an antigen-driven mechanism linked to certain human leukocyte antigen haplotypes.

This study reported the creation of isogenic immortalized COL7A1-deficient keratinocyte lines, providing a model for researching Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa biology and potential therapies.

This study reports that flaky skin mice exhibit skin and nail features that closely resemble human psoriasis vulgaris, suggesting they may serve as a natural model for this condition.

In this study, researchers reported that a keratinocyte growth factor-Ig fusion protein could specifically detect and localize KGFRs in epithelial tissues, suggesting a method for histochemical detection of growth factor receptors.

This article discusses the human KRT72 wild-type allele's role in hair formation and reports no new research findings.
