This study identified a new FAK isoform, FAKΔe4, which is regulated by ECM stiffness and affects cell migration, invasion, and mechanosensing in human-derived data and engineered models.

This study reports that a 190,000 molecular weight protein, identified as trichohyalin, may play a matrix role in the development of inner root sheaths in hair follicles.

This study identified a population of GFP-expressing nestin-positive cells in transgenic mice hair follicles that varied in location during different hair cycle phases, suggesting a shared relationship with neural stem cells.

This study demonstrated that a novel synthetic amyloid template accelerates the deposition of insulin monomers into amyloid fibrils without a lag time, potentially aiding in vitro screening of amyloid deposition inhibitors.

This study suggests that a newly discovered protein, AMY117, found in Alzheimer's disease brain lesions may be crucial in the disease's development and progression.

This review discusses the regulation of the MiT-TFE family transcription factors, particularly TFEB, through phosphorylation-mediated subcellular localization and reports no new clinical results.

This study demonstrated immunological cross-reactivity between mycobacterial heat-shock protein 65 and human epidermal cytokeratin 1/2, suggesting that this cross-reactive epitope might play a role in skin diseases.

TCHHL1 is a protein important for hair growth, found in hair follicles.

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

Skin and hair cells release serotonin and histamine naturally, which could help improve skin health.

This study found that nestin-expressing unipotent progenitor cells capable of differentiating into outer root sheath keratinocytes are present during hair follicle development and in adult hair follicles.

This study found that the NHD domain, but not the PHD domain, of hPygo2 is crucial for Wnt-independent growth of ovarian cancer cells, and identified a key interaction with Treacle protein involved in ribosomal biogenesis.

In this study, the authors identified and characterized the Get3d protein, conserved across plants and photosynthetic bacteria, which localizes to the chloroplast in Arabidopsis thaliana and potentially plays a role in tail-anchored protein targeting, linked to photosynthesis homeostasis.

In this study, nestin-expressing cells in the hair follicle bulge, marked by GFP in transgenic mice, were identified as progenitors of the hair follicle outer-root sheath.

This study found that nestin-expressing hair follicle-derived cells express higher levels of certain neurotrophic factors and neural markers, indicating potential for neuroregenerative therapy applications.

Hair proteins change location and structure as hair cells mature.

This study observed that cathepsin L and transglutaminase 3 colocalize in the human hair bulb and nail matrix, suggesting their involvement in terminal differentiation within these epidermal appendages.

This study investigated peptidergic nerve fibers in sinus hair follicles of various mammals and found that CGRP fibers were more densely distributed than SP fibers across different regions of the follicles.

This study suggests that the mechanical robustness of hair may be enhanced by the binding interactions of keratin-associated proteins, particularly KAP8.1, with intermediate filament proteins.

This study identified FP-1 as a highly specific extracellular matrix protein in follicular papilla cells, which may play a role in hair growth regulation during specific hair cycle phases.

This study found that the transcription factor Meis2 is crucial for the maturation and innervation of sensory neurons responsible for light touch in mice, with its absence leading to reduced touch sensitivity.

This study found that Hirosaki hairless rats experience transient activation of STAT5A in the mammary glands during early lactation, involving O-GlcNAc modification rather than Tyr-phosphorylation.

In this study, autophagy was commonly observed during keratinization in neonate rat hair follicles, suggesting lysosomal proteases and cytoplasmic enzymes may coordinate in hair follicle cell differentiation.

This study found that mu-crystallin gene expression in mouse skin is highest during the anagen phase of hair development, suggesting its possible role in hair follicle growth.

CaBP1 and CaBP2 are necessary for proper hearing and neurotransmission in the ear's inner hair cells.
