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.

This report describes a 9-year-old girl with a scalp kerion treated successfully with terbinafine and ketoconazole shampoo, leading to hair regrowth after two months.

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 case study reports a peculiar variant of an epidermal cyst in a patient, featuring unique characteristics like brownish, lumpy contents resembling bone marrow.

This case report describes a 5-year-old girl who developed kerion celsi from an untreated scalp infection, likely contracted from a guinea pig, leading to significant hair loss and the need for a wig.

In this study, researchers analyzed data from 132 hospitalized kerion patients over 11 years, mostly children under 11 from rural areas, and noted a significant male predominance and frequent animal contact as potential transmission factors.

This study demonstrates that keratin K2 is crucial for proper keratinocyte structure and function in specific mouse skin areas, and its deficiency leads to cellular aggregates and skin abnormalities.

In this study, the staining properties of two types of cysts, epidermal and pilar, were found to differ, supporting their origins from the epidermis and the trichilemmal hair follicle layer, respectively.

This study provides evidence for K1 and K10 derivatives' presence in the inner root sheath and hair cuticle, suggesting that these hair follicle parts may follow familiar keratinization principles.

This case report describes an 18-year-old male with kerion celsi from Trichophyton tonsurans infection whose condition improved with terbinafine treatment, and highlights that although IL-17A expression increased in skin lesions, it was associated with disrupted antimicrobial peptide expression and severe inflammation, causing tissue damage.

This case report described a misdiagnosed kerion in a 10-year-old child initially treated as a bacterial abscess, leading to unnecessary surgery and residual scarring alopecia.

This study observed that the keratinization pattern of trichilemmal cysts in two Japanese women may originate from the proliferation of the outer root sheath in the follicular isthmus of anagen hairs.

This study demonstrates a varied distribution of keratins in the epidermis of the Malayan pangolin, suggesting evolutionary adaptations related to their distinctive scales.

In this case report, researchers identified Arthroderma vanbreuseghemii as the cause of a familial fungal infection, which was successfully treated with itraconazole and topical terbinafine cream.

This case study reports that a 9-year-old Nepalese boy with tinea capitis successfully recovered with systemic antifungal therapy, though experienced focal alopecia without recurrence at a two-year follow-up.

Keratin patterns in hair follicles help understand hair growth and potential hair and nail disorders.

This case report describes a 19-year-old farmer who experienced difficulty breathing due to a fungal infection in the neck, successfully treated with antibiotics and antifungal medications.

This article describes a method using the CUBIC protocol to clarify and visualize molecular and cellular interactions in mouse skin biopsies at single cell resolution, but does not provide new biological findings.

This study demonstrated that keratin is widely present in various epithelial cells, providing structural strength and potential insights into the origin of cell lines.

This review summarizes the cell type distribution and functional significance of human keratins, emphasizing their roles in tumor diagnosis and potential clinical applications, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study identified the distribution of keratin-associated proteins during cornification in the epidermis of reptiles, revealing unique structural characteristics in sauropsid keratin proteins compared to other vertebrates.

Keratin proteins in epithelial cells are dynamic and crucial for cell processes and disease understanding.

This study observed unique ultrastructural changes in a 4-year-old girl with pili trianguli et canaliculi that may affect hair shaft surface characteristics due to inner root sheath alterations.

This study found that keratin filament networks in SG1 cells of mice undergo dynamic changes during cornification, impacting the barrier function of the stratum corneum.

This overview examines the biology, origin, structure, and function of various cells and structures, such as the blood-retinal barrier and Merkel cells, and discusses their roles in disease pathogenesis, along with recent findings related to the lymph nodes' paracortex.

This study demonstrated that hair follicle bulge stem cells can form epidermis in a tissue-engineered skin model, highlighting the significance of K5/K17 filaments in slow-cycling stem cell subsets.
