This study found that lncRNA2919 negatively impacts hair follicle regeneration by decreasing follicle depth and density in a rabbit model, suggesting a regulatory role in the hair follicle cycle through DNA methylation.

ATP-sensitive potassium channels are important for hair growth.

This report describes a case of epidermolytic hyperkeratosis in a newborn and her mother, both possessing a specific KRT1 gene mutation known to cause this skin disorder.

This study found that KROX20 is crucial for hair follicle development and epidermal homeostasis, as its deletion in skin epithelial cells led to hair loss and increased epidermal thickness.

This report describes two cases of tinea capitis in young siblings, with cultures showing M. canis and Rhodotorulla, and notes improvement after treatment with ketoconazole lotion and shampoo for two months.

This case study suggests that early or significant alopecia in young adults may warrant investigation for underlying congenital conditions like trichorhinophalangeal syndrome.

This research observed that sheep and rabbit KAP6 genes, expressed in hair follicle cells, have high sequence similarity and indicate conservation due to evolutionary selection pressures.

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 reports improvement in tinea capitis symptoms in two siblings after two months of treatment with ketoconazole lotion and shampoo, following initial findings of M. canis and Rhodotorulla infections.

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 found that human hair keratin genes contain a few simple sequence repeats, with one repeat in the exon of KRT31 and additional repeats in introns, varying in length compared to their orthologues.

This study presents computational modeling and experimental analysis of the HGT protein KAP8.1, identifying key structural features that may influence hair's response to environmental conditions.

A specific hair protein variant increases the spread of breast cancer and is linked to worse survival rates.

This article reviews the genetic foundations of keratins in maintaining epithelial tissue integrity and links specific keratin variants to diverse ichthyosis forms, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study found that KrasG12D mutant cells are typically cleared from adult pancreas tissues through mechanisms involving the EphA2 receptor, suggesting its role as a tumor suppressor in pancreatic cancer.

This review discusses the role of keratins in providing mechanical resilience to epithelial tissues and highlights recent therapeutic approaches for keratin diseases, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study reports the first cases of recessive KRT17-related pachyonychia congenita involving all ectodermal derivatives in seven members of two consanguineous Pakistani families.

This study found that activating KATP channels with pinacidil may reduce antioxidant levels and mortality in honey bees, suggesting a role in regulating antiviral immunity through reactive oxygen species.

This study found that TPA induces apoptosis in pig renal epithelial cells by affecting cell cycle proteins, and activated ras can prevent this process.

In this study, researchers found that the cornification process in the nuptial pads of Xenopus frogs involves the expression of the type II hair keratin homolog, krt59, and is regulated by the transcription factor hoxc13, showing similarities to mammalian hair evolution.

This study identified two novel genes, pmg-1 and pmg-2, expressed in various skin and gland tissues and potentially involved in the differentiation of epithelial cells in epidermal appendages.

In this study, targeting the expression of a keratin KRT5/KRT8 chimeric cDNA in keratin-deficient mice partially restored structural defects in epidermal cells, but did not fully normalize skin health.

This article presents a case of Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome with limb hypertrophy, port-wine stains, angiokeratoma, and venous varicosities, but reports no new findings beyond this case description.

This abstract describes the intended benefits of Kerablak Calcium Pantothenate Tablet for hair health but reports no new clinical study findings.

ATR12-351 ointment safely delivers LEKTI protein to the skin, reducing enzyme activity in Netherton syndrome.

This review discusses the use of dermal regeneration templates for treating burn injuries and other wounds, highlighting their effectiveness in reducing scars and aiding in regenerative processes, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that keratin-associated proteins form part of the developing exocuticle and a-layer in hair fiber cuticle cells, while cornified envelope proteins were absent.

In this study of mouse hair follicles, Raptor was specifically expressed in hair follicle stem cells, while Rictor was mainly found in inner root sheath cells, indicating distinct roles in hair growth stages.

This case report highlights the discovery of a novel TRPS1 gene mutation in a 17-year-old with TRPS type I, underscoring the diagnostic importance of hair symptoms in congenital hair diseases.

This study found that the transcription factor CAP1 negatively regulates KRT83 expression in Tan sheep, possibly influencing their curly hair phenotype.
