This study suggests that a newly identified KRT 71 gene variant may be responsible for curly hair in Curly Coated Retrievers and potentially contributes to follicular dysplasia.

This study demonstrates that Krt15 marks long-lived, multipotent, and injury-resistant crypt cells in the small intestine, which may serve as the cell of origin in intestinal cancer.

This study identified a radio-resistant population of Krt15+ stem cells in the mouse small intestine that can initiate tumors, suggesting potential targets for colon cancer therapy.

This review examines genetic variation in the ovine KRTAP1.1 gene and its potential impact on wool quality, reporting no new findings but suggesting opportunities for developing gene markers for wool and pelt traits.

This article presents a family case study of dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis linked to a specific KRT14 gene variant, detailing symptoms and stressing the importance of molecular diagnosis for management.

This study identified a new pathogenic variant, c.1081G>T; p.(Glu361*), in the KRT31 gene as a cause of autosomal-dominant monilethrix, highlighting the role of hair keratin proteins in hair and nail tissue disorders.

This study describes the expression patterns of type I inner root sheath keratin proteins K25–K28 in human hair follicles, highlighting their distinct distribution within different layers.

This study reports that K7 expression patterns observed in mice are similar to those in humans, revealing previously unreported expression in the gastrointestinal tract, tongue, and various "hard" epithelial tissues.

Krt6a-Cre transgenic mice help study gene effects on hair follicle development and tumor suppression.

This study found that polymorphisms in KRTAP13.1, KRTAP27-1, and KRTAP24-1 were significantly associated with fiber diameter in Jiangnan cashmere goats, which may aid future breeding and conservation efforts.

This study identified polymorphisms in HGT-KRTAP7-1 and KRTAP8-1 genes in Argentine llamas that may impact fiber characteristics by altering amino acid residues critical for keratin-associated protein properties.

In this study, KRTAP28-1 variants were associated with wool fibre diameter in sheep, suggesting potential as a gene marker for reducing fibre diameter.

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 study found that variation in the ovine KRTAP27-1 gene may influence wool growth, with certain genotypes associated with higher mean staple length and greasy fleece weight in sheep.

This study identified two single-nucleotide polymorphisms and three haplotypes in the KRTAP7-1 gene across yak, taurine, and zebu cattle, with the BOVIN-KRTAP7-1*A haplotype most prevalent.

In this study, researchers identified the c.296C>T (p.T99I) variant in the KRT32 gene, which co-segregates with loose anagen hair syndrome, and found it decreases binding affinity to KRT82, potentially weakening hair anchorage.

This study found that in Merino-Southdown cross sheep, the presence of the C variant of the KRTAP26-1 gene was associated with higher wool quality, including increased wool yield and staple length.

This study identified a novel mutation, R430Q in the KRT86 gene, in a Han family with monilethrix, which may contribute to the disease's pathogenic mechanism.

This study found that Krtap11-1 may play an important role in keratin-bundle assembly in the hair cortex, influencing the physical properties of hair.

This study analyzed the genetics of the patchiness phenotype in New Zealand rabbits and found that the gene KRT82, with identified SNPs in its promoter, may serve as a potential biomarker for breeding these rabbits.

This research identified K31 as a new marker for distinguishing clear secretory cells in human eccrine sweat glands, aiding in differentiating between distinct cell types within these glands.

TRIV-509 quickly improves skin barrier and cell health in atopic dermatitis.

This study reports new monilethrix cases in Venezuela, the Netherlands, Belgium, and France, expanding the known mutational spectrum of the disorder with novel mutations in KRT81, KRT83, and KRT86 genes.

This study suggests that KRTAP2-3 may serve as a novel biomarker to identify cells in the polyaneuploid cancer cell state, which is linked to therapy resistance and poor prognosis in prostate cancer.

Among Merino × Southdown cross sheep, this study found that certain variants of the KRT81 gene were associated with differences in fleece weight, but not with staple length or fibre diameter traits.

A rare genetic deletion in the KRT1 gene causes unique skin symptoms in a family.

This study found that conditional deletion of CD271 in mouse epidermis led to significant disorganization and increased thickness, suggesting CD271's crucial role in regulating skin differentiation and structure.

In this study, researchers identified a cluster of hair-specific keratin-associated protein genes within the 21q22.3 region, revealing a novel transcription mechanism involving TSPEAR/C21orf29 that may bypass typical transcriptional termination sites.
