Eye lens capsules are the best for growing human skin cells.

This case report describes a proliferating trichilemmal cyst that underwent malignant transformation, with specific keratins identified in the tumor but no epidermal keratin detected.

This letter reports acquired progressive kinking of hair as a condition observed following COVID-19, but it presents no new scientific findings.

This paper reviews keratoacanthoma as a tumor that resembles but rarely progresses to squamous cell carcinoma, detailing its stages, potential origins, and distinguishing features from other similar growths, without reporting new clinical results.

This study demonstrates that bulge KSCs from hair follicles can transdifferentiate into corneal epithelial-like cells under specific conditions, which could support bioengineered cornea development.

This study reports that the monoclonal antibody BKN-1 specifically stained basal cell epithelioma cells and certain normal skin structures, indicating a similarity in keratin expression between the tumor and follicular epithelium below the isthmus portion.

This study found that AIRE, a usually nuclear protein, is expressed in the cytoplasm of human epidermal and follicular keratinocytes and associates with the intermediate filament protein cytokeratin 17, potentially impacting ectodermal abnormalities in APECED syndrome.

In this case report, a 76-year-old male had an eyelid lesion that mimicked squamous cell carcinoma but was diagnosed as benign inverted follicular keratosis after surgical excision, underscoring the importance of distinguishing between the two for proper management.

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, patients with keratosis pilaris exhibited significant quality of life impairment, with histopathology and dermoscopy revealing consistent skin and hair changes.

In this case report, a 34-year-old woman with black dot tinea capitis did not respond to oral Itraconazole but was successfully treated with Terbinafine.

Junctional proteins stabilize the inner root sheath and connect the companion layer in human hair.

In this case study, a 55-year-old male farmer from Nepal with a kerion barbae in the beard region showed complete resolution after initiating oral itraconazole, highlighting the potential for misdiagnosis when bacterial superinfection complicates dermatophyte infections.

This research discusses Fahr syndrome, highlighting its association with abnormal brain calcifications and varied clinical symptoms in young to middle-aged adults. Diagnosis involves specific criteria and CT scans, but no specific treatment exists; therapy focuses on managing symptoms and underlying conditions.

This abstract provides contact information for François Kuonen at the Lausanne University Hospital Center and 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 found that recombinant human hair keratin proteins K31 and K81 show greater potential for inducing skin cell differentiation compared to natural keratin coatings.

This case report describes a 6-month-old girl in China who experienced complete remission of tinea capitis after 8 weeks of treatment with oral fluconazole and ketoconazole cream.

This study found that straight crimp mutant wool differs from crimpy wool in the layout of cortical cells and the relative proportions of keratin and keratin-associated proteins.

This study found that K79+ keratinocytes migrate outward to help form the hair follicle lumen both during development and adult regeneration, revealing a novel mechanism of hair follicle formation in mice.

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 study concluded that the inner root sheath inhibits the expression of certain differentiation markers in hair bulbs, with calcium-induced changes paralleling those seen in hair follicle mid-segments.

This review discusses identifying keratosis pilaris, its common mimics, and its associated skin diseases across different skin tones but reports no new results.

This study found that the keratin expression in basal cell carcinoma resembles that of the pilosebaceous apparatus, with uniform presence of certain keratins in all cases.

This study describes a method for serially cultivating adult human hair follicle keratinocytes using a specific growth substrate and cryogenic storage, enabling subculture and immunofluorescence studies.

This study of pilomatrixoma cases in children reveals that these benign tumors typically present as painless masses under the eyebrow and can be effectively treated with surgical excision, though rare rapid growth may occur.

In this case report, an 8-year-old boy's crusted scalp lesions and alopecia initially mimicking kerion were ultimately diagnosed as Pre-B acute lymphocytic leukemia after histopathological evaluation revealed leukemia cutis.

This study examined the expression patterns of various cytokeratins in the outer root sheath of human anagen hair follicles, noting distinct differentiation patterns and localization of keratin markers.

This article provides an overview of keratosis pilaris, discussing its different variants, possible pathogenesis, and treatment options, without reporting new clinical results.

This report describes a new case of syndromic ichthyosis caused by compound heterozygous mutations in AP1B1, detailing the associated clinical features and molecular consequences in the patient.
