This study examined the role of long non-coding RNAs in wool fineness among Gansu alpine fine-wool sheep, identifying specific lncRNAs and target genes that may enhance wool quality.

In this study, researchers observed that mutant mice with a genetic hair loss condition exhibited significant differential expression of genes related to keratinization and hair follicle formation, providing insights into potential strategies for understanding and treating alopecia.

In this study, researchers observed that spontaneously mutated mice with a hair loss phenotype exhibited significant differential expression of genes related to keratinization and hair follicle formation, suggesting these mice could model human alopecia for future research and treatment development.

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.

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.

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 found differential expression of genes related to hair fiber production in Pashmina and Barbari goats, potentially enhancing pashmina fiber quality and informing future enrichment analyses.

This study discovered that key genes like KAP3-1 and KRTAPs are closely linked to the growth cycle of cashmere in Inner Mongolian goats, identifying March as the primary cycle's onset.

In this study, the researchers identified key genes, including KAP and KRTAP, that correlate with the secondary hair follicle growth cycle in Inner Mongolian cashmere goats, emphasizing March as the significant transition month.

In this study, the researchers found that KAP3.1, KRTAP 8-1, and KRTAP 24-1 genes positively correlated with the growth cycle of cashmere in Inner Mongolia goats, aligning with the observed hair cycle phases.

This study found that oral collagen peptides increased the expression of genes related to epidermal and hair cycle development in hairless mouse skin.

This study found that oral collagen peptides increased expression of genes associated with epidermis development and the hair cycle in hairless mice, providing insights into their potential skin benefits.

This study found that adult dermal papilla cells guided high-passage adult keratinocytes to produce new hair fibers, suggesting potential for large-scale hair follicle bioengineering.

This paper discusses the role of the KRTAP gene family in the evolution of mammalian hair and its potential link to hair-related disorders, but reports no new research findings.

The researchers reported that stress-induced keratins in human skin are expressed at lower levels than those in healthy skin and are co-regulated with genes involved in differentiation, inflammation, and immunity, rather than replacing keratins of normal differentiation or indicating cell proliferation.

This study found that KAP and KRTAP genes positively correlate with the cashmere growth cycle, and their regulation aligns with the growth phases of cashmere in secondary hair follicles.

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 novel genetic variations in the KRTAP22-2 gene among eight sheep breeds but found no association between these genotypes and wool fibre traits, indicating possible species-specific differences compared to goats.

In this study, researchers found that a high-fat diet in mice induced downregulation of certain Krtap genes in the tongue, which may be linked to structural issues or oral cancer risk, highlighting a potential connection between oral health and systemic diseases like metabolic syndrome.

In this study, researchers identified a putative ovine KAP24-1 gene in sheep, revealing four unique DNA sequences with some similarity to KRTAP24-1 sequences from other species.

This genetic study identified four new keratin-associated protein genes in sheep, revealing significant sequence variation and suggesting complex evolutionary dynamics, with unique variants in some sheep breeds linking them to Romanov sheep ancestry.

This study found that certain keratin gene mutations associated with pachyonychia congenita are linked to altered enamel structure and increased risk of dental caries.

In this study, researchers used patient-derived organoids to model metastasis in colorectal cancer and discovered that cancer cells temporarily switch to a wound-healing program, orchestrated by reduced EZH2 activity and YAP signaling, before spreading to new organs.

This study identified eight alleles of the caprine KAP13-3 gene in cashmere goats, which could influence gene expression and cashmere fiber characteristics.

Among Super Merino and Small-Tailed Han sheep, this study identified differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs and mRNAs linked to hair follicle growth and fiber traits, suggesting their potential roles in regulating these important wool characteristics through RNA sequencing and gene enrichment analyses.

This article proposes an updated naming system for keratin-associated proteins and genes, aiming to improve data storage and retrieval by including species information and genetic variation.

In this study, researchers identified five unique sequences of the ovine KAP13-3 gene, with potential implications for wool traits due to observed amino acid changes.

This abstract reviews the role of the human KRT 16 wild-type allele in skin and hair development and its association with certain genetic skin disorders, without presenting new findings.

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