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.

In this study, researchers developed de novo designed hetero-bifunctional proteins as an alternative approach for targeted protein degradation, successfully targeting BCL-xL for degradation in cells and inducing apoptosis, which may expand the range of addressable E3 ligases and disease targets.

This study identified Lgr5 and Lgr6 as receptors expressed by small populations of stem cells in various adult organs, with Lgr5+ve cells forming long-lived organoids in certain mouse models.

This study found that SARS-CoV-2 hijacks the host factor IGF2BP1 to stabilize its RNA and enhance translation, and identified Cepharanthine and Trifluoperazine as potential treatments against the virus.

This case report describes a 39-year-old woman whose dermatomyositis-systemic lupus erythematosus overlap syndrome symptoms resolved after switching to tofacitinib.

This study reports on the biochemical characteristics of S100A3 protein in human hair cuticle, notably finding its N-terminal methionine is acetylated and has a slightly lower isoelectric point compared to the recombinant version.

This study found that the protein OsUEV1B is essential for maintaining phosphate balance in rice, with Pi deficiency leading to its inhibition and causing overaccumulation of phosphate in mutants.

This review highlights LTBP1 as a critical integrator in disease processes, showing its dual role in cancer progression and suppression, its pathological influence in fibrosis, and its contribution to various disorders, suggesting its potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target.

This study found that the protein C4BPA may link insulin resistance and acne vulgaris by influencing lipid metabolism and inflammatory pathways, suggesting it as a potential mediator in the pathogenesis of both conditions.

This study found that using a Picosecond IR Laser (PIRL) on mouse skin led to less tissue damage and scarring compared to conventional surgical lasers and tools.

This study discovered that in *Drosophila*, knockdown of specific storage proteins in adipocytes decreased germline stem cell maintenance, implicating a role for these proteins in adult tissue regulation.

This study found that miRNA-24 downregulates the KLF6 gene, influencing coat color by affecting melanogenesis pathways in Cashmere goats, and that miRNA-24 inhibition increased melanin content in mice.

This study identifies two new proteins, CCDC22 and CCDC93, essential for root and root hair growth in Arabidopsis, and demonstrates their genetic link to a VTI13-dependent vacuolar trafficking pathway.

This study found that the ethyl acetate extract of Semecarpus anacardium leaves demonstrated cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cancer cells and induced apoptosis, suggesting potential as a cancer treatment with fewer side effects.

This study observed that different alkaline buffers had a significant impact on the volume of liquid consumed by fall armyworm larvae, emphasizing the importance of measuring imbibed volumes to reduce dose errors in bioassays.

This study found that the enzyme A20 helps regulate EDAR-induced NF-κB signaling in mice, preventing ectodermal abnormalities like disheveled hair and assuring proper skin and appendage development.

This study found that electrophoretic keratin typing of head hair can identify specific polypeptide patterns, suggesting potential applications in genetic and forensic investigations.

This study reports a unique case of common variable immunodeficiency with autoimmunity linked to a heterozygous S250C variant in the autoimmune regulator gene, suggesting a potential molecular basis for this combination.

This study found that transthyretin and megalin expression in human scalp hair follicles varies significantly with the hair growth cycle, peaking during anagen and diminishing in catagen and telogen phases.

This study found no association between the -866G/A polymorphism in the UCP2 gene and the development of polycystic ovary syndrome.

This study observed that patients with type 2 diabetes and sensorineural hearing loss exhibited significantly higher levels of peripheral myelin protein 22, particularly in those with microangiopathies, suggesting demyelinating processes in the auditory system.

This study found that dysregulation of the folliculin-p0071 interaction may lead to changes in cell adhesion and signaling, contributing to conditions like emphysema and renal cell carcinoma.

This study found that the Bradford assay is a sensitive and reproducible alternative to the Lowry test for quantifying hair protein loss during brushing, with bleached hair releasing more protein than virgin hair.

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 suggests that programmed cell death plays a crucial role in shaping the structure of the human epidermis and its appendages during development.

This study suggests that intermediate-size hyaluronate fragments may enhance keratinocyte proliferation and improve skin thickness in atrophic conditions through a CD44-dependent mechanism.

The document explains how hair is studied in forensics to identify its source and its role in criminal investigations.

This study developed a novel smart deoxyribozyme-based fluorescent sensor that efficiently detects androgen receptor mRNA with high selectivity and can be adapted to target various nucleic acid sequences.

In this study, researchers identified a collagen fragment, sample-1707, expressed in E. coli, which forms nanofibers and promotes blood clotting, osteoblast differentiation, and skin cell regeneration, making it a promising biomaterial for skin care, with a large-scale production yield of 600 mg/L.

This study found that excessive heat caused the most significant structural changes in hair from Caucasian and Afro samples, especially when combined with other treatments like bleaching and straightening.
