This chapter discusses androgen receptors and protein synthesis in the prostate, reporting that DHT-dependent receptor protein translocation increases protein-synthesizing activity after androgen injection in rat models.

This study identified two types of calcium in human scalp hair shafts: easily removable calcium, likely as calcium soaps, and more stably bound calcium, possibly related to Ca-binding proteins.

This study described the clinical and genetic features of two Iranian siblings with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets, identifying a specific VDR gene mutation contributing to their symptoms.

This study reported that immunotherapy in cancer patients can lead to skin-related immune adverse events, such as rashes, pruritus, and vitiligo, affecting a substantial proportion of patients.

This study found that AR-007 degrades faster and has a stronger association with hsp70 than AR-014, suggesting it is less stable when bound to the androgen receptor.

This study found significant differences in cashmere fiber diameters between two groups of cashmere goats and identified 211 genes and 50 metabolites related to hair follicle growth and cellular functions, suggesting potential pathways to improve cashmere quality.

This study found that digital perm treatments using sodium thioglycolate lotion led to the most significant reduction in protein content and greater hair damage compared to other methods and lotions.

This study identified three SPINK5 mutations, including two novel ones, in Israeli patients with Comèl-Netherton syndrome, suggesting recurring mutations that should inform future diagnostic strategies in Israel.

This study identified 193 plasma proteins associated with prostate cancer risk, validating 20 high-risk proteins including KLK3, and pinpointed potential drug targets like HSPB1, RRM2B, and PSCA through genetic analysis, offering new insights for biomarkers and treatments.

In this study, researchers examined two new cases of trichothiodystrophy and observed that the condition is linked to decreased synthesis of high-sulfur matrix proteins in hair.

In this study, researchers identified a cluster of hair-specific keratin-associated protein genes within the 21q22.3 region, revealing a novel transcription mechanism involving TSPEAR/C21orf29 that may bypass typical transcriptional termination sites.

This article reviews the composition and structure of mammalian hard keratins, focusing on the filamentous and nonfilamentous protein content, and reports no new experimental results.

This study found that an oral marine protein supplement significantly increased hair growth and reduced hair shedding in women with temporary thinning hair over 90 days compared to a placebo.

This review discusses the diversity of keratins and keratin-associated proteins in wool and hair, noting significant variation in their families, with no new results reported; the authors detail known protein structures without experimental findings.

This study proposed a network model for the cross-linked structure of keratin-associated proteins in hair and wool fibers, suggesting notable differences between the two, potentially affecting hair fiber elasticity.

This study observed that among 120 patients recovering from COVID-19, severe diffuse hair loss typically began less than two months post-infection, with the majority of patients experiencing a severe degree of hair loss and positive hair pull tests, often alongside vitamin D deficiency.

This study found that the HoxC gene cluster is crucial for the development of hair and nails in mice, with key regulation by two mammalian-specific enhancers.

Men with early balding should be checked for metabolic syndrome, as there's a link between the two.

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.

This study identified a new gene, mrp4, in mice, which suggests it may have a unique role in the growth and development of hair follicles in the ears and tails.

This study investigated various proteins as eco-friendly hair perming agents for Asian hair and found that bovine serum albumin and keratin achieved perming results comparable to commercial products, while also increasing hair moisture, indicating a protective effect during heat styling.

This article reviews the identification and characterization of soluble proteins in horny tissues such as calluses and psoriatic scales, but reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a cluster of genes on chromosome 17 related to hair keratin-associated proteins, including 37 genes forming seven multigene families, localized in the hair shaft's upper cortex.

This study observed that genetic variation in the ovine KRTAP22-1 gene is linked to increased wool yield and decreased fiber curvature in sheep, indicating its potential use in breeding programs.

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.

This review discusses the role of Ysc84/SH3yl1 proteins in linking actin regulation to membrane morphology changes but reports no new experimental results.

This study identified the expression sites of five KAP5 genes on human chromosome 11q13.5 in scalp skin sections but did not explore their detailed distribution within hair follicles.

Hair glycation can indicate long-term blood sugar trends in diabetics.

This study suggests that keratin expression in keratoacanthomas resembles that in the upper part of hair follicles, implying a potential origin, but it is indistinguishable from squamous cell carcinomas in terms of keratin reactivity.

This study introduced a method to isolate and separate microfibrillar proteins from human hair, identifying previously undetected glycine- and tyrosine-rich proteins.
