Researchers mapped and categorized specific keratin-associated protein genes on human chromosome 21q22.1.

Certain genes related to sulfur metabolism are more active during the growth phase of Cashmere goat wool, and melatonin might help this process.

Non-invasive methods can effectively diagnose and manage alopecia areata.

Hair and nail cells share similar proteins, indicating a common differentiation pathway.

The Polish Society of Dermatology recommends treatments for alopecia areata that vary by severity, including topical and systemic medications, with long-term maintenance important for management.

Finding functions for unknown GPCRs is hard but key for making new drugs.

Some hair protein genes evolved early and were adapted for use in hair follicles.

Sheep have a unique gene, KAP8-2, that humans don't have, which may affect wool properties.

Different hair types in mammals are linked to variations in specific protein genes, with changes influenced by their living environments.

IGF-1 increases whisker growth in transgenic mice.

The gene KAP22-1 affects wool yield and fiber shape in sheep.

New treatment combining PRP and SVF increases hair density in 6-12 weeks for androgenetic alopecia patients.

Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.

Researchers found a new gene, hacl-1, that is active in mouse hair follicles during hair growth and may be important for hair biology.

A boy with chromosome 13q deletion syndrome developed eye cancer, a woman with breast cancer lost vision due to a rare side-effect of her treatment, a man's vision worsened after using a hair loss drug, and two rare disorders were discussed. Optical Coherence Tomography is useful for diagnosing and monitoring these conditions.

Eye exams are crucial for kids with 13q deletion syndrome, tamoxifen can cause vision loss, Propecia may lead to cataracts, Lipoid Proteinosis causes skin bumps, and OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.

A baby boy with 13q deletion syndrome had eye cancer, a woman's vision improved after stopping a breast cancer drug, a man developed cataracts from using Propecia, and a rare skin disorder called Lipoid Proteinosis was discussed. Also, a tool called OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.

Taking Propecia might lead to the development of cataracts.

Korean and Caucasian men with male pattern baldness have different hair steroid levels.

The document discusses various eye conditions and their treatments, including a rare eye cancer in a baby, vision loss from a cancer drug, cataracts from a baldness treatment, a rare skin disorder, and a specific type of eye disease diagnosed with a special imaging technique.

Finasteride, often used for hair loss, can potentially cause cataracts.

The document concludes that careful diagnosis is crucial for chromosome 13q deletion syndrome, tamoxifen can cause reversible eye damage, finasteride may be linked to cataracts, and OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.

Multiple eye conditions were studied, highlighting the importance of various imaging methods for diagnosis, the vision side effects of drugs tamoxifen and Propecia, and the usefulness of optical coherence tomography for diagnosing and monitoring macular and retinal diseases.

Keratin-associated proteins have ancient origins and were used for different purposes before being adapted for hair in mammals.

Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.

Mice are useful for researching human hair loss and testing treatments, despite some differences between species.

Nd:YAG laser can reduce hair with multiple treatments, but permanent removal isn't guaranteed.

Radiofrequency and scalpel incisions have similar clinical outcomes for upper eyelid surgery.

Annurca apple extract promotes hair growth by changing hair follicle metabolism to boost keratin production.

The document concludes that the human keratin gene cluster is complex, with a need for updated naming to reflect over 50 functional genes important for hair and skin biology.
