In this study, researchers using a UVB-induced mouse model identified the gene COL7A1 as a novel marker for hair luster, finding that minoxidil, caffeine, and biotin effectively restored its expression, indicating potential therapeutic strategies.

This study identified a novel keratin-associated protein, KAP24.1, which is specifically expressed in the human scalp and located in the hair cuticle.

This study found that disrupting the Sox21 gene in mice led to progressive hair loss and regrowth, identifying Sox21 as a key regulator of hair shaft cuticle differentiation.

This study found that patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia showed significant alterations in protein expression in forehead corneocytes, suggesting the condition may have systemic implications beyond the scalp.

This review discusses selection signatures and selective sweeps in fiber-producing animals and recommends further genomic investigations to identify genes related to important fiber traits, without providing new results.

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

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 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.

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 study sequenced a related gene to KRT2.9 called KRT2.13, which encodes a type II keratin protein not expressed in the hair follicle, and found significant sequence homology suggesting possible gene conversion or conservation of functional sequences.

This study identified nine novel KRTAP5 family genes associated with human hair formation, demonstrating preferential expression in hair roots and suggesting their role in hair development.

This study highlighted Keratin 17's critical role in cancer therapy resistance across several malignancies, involving various signaling pathways, and identified it as a significant biomarker and potential therapeutic target, particularly in reversing resistance.

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 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.

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 isolated and sequenced the complete gene rKAP4L1, which encodes a cysteine-rich hair keratin-associated protein in rabbit hair follicles.

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, two novel clusters of keratin-associated protein genes on human chromosome 11 were analyzed, suggesting their products are crucial for hair formation due to preferential expression in hair roots.

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 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.

This study evaluated krokot extract as a hair tonic and found it to be microbiologically safe, effective at extending and increasing hair weight, non-irritating, and generally well-received in terms of aroma and color when tested on rabbits.

This study found that genes in the human keratin-associated protein 1 family may have evolved mainly through gene duplication of cysteine-repeat motifs.

This study found that inhibiting the ATR kinase with VE-822 impairs DNA repair capability in quiescent human keratinocytes exposed to solar-simulated UV radiation, suggesting ATR's critical role in facilitating effective DNA damage repair and cellular recovery under UV stress conditions.

This review reports that KRT80 is overexpressed in various cancers, enhancing cancer cell proliferation, invasiveness, and migration, suggesting it as a potential therapeutic target, though more clinical studies are needed to fully understand its role in cancer prognosis.

In this study, researchers identified two new keratin-associated proteins, hKAP1.6 and hKAP1.7, in human hair follicles, contributing to understanding hair fiber differentiation.

This study found that the promoter region of the sheep KRTAP11-1 gene drives specific transcriptional activity in wool follicles, suggesting it may regulate hair keratinocyte specificity.
