research Genome-wide association study in frontal fibrosing alopecia identifies four susceptibility loci including HLA-B*07:02
Frontal fibrosing alopecia is linked to four genetic areas, especially the HLA-B*07:02 allele.
research 312 CRISPR/Cas9-based targeted genome editing for correction of recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa using iPS cells
The research showed that CRISPR/Cas9 can fix mutations causing a skin disease in stem cells, which then improved skin grafts in mice, but more work on safety and efficiency is needed.
research Cloning and Activity of Mouse Ultra-High Sulfur Keratin Gene Promoter
The UHS promoter is specific to mouse hair follicles.
research GLI2 Is Expressed in Normal Human Epidermis and BCC and Induces GLI1 Expression by Binding to its Promoter
GLI2 activates GLI1, promoting skin tumor growth and hair development.
research A novel point mutation of keratin 17 (KRT17) in a Japanese family with pachyonychia congenita type 2: an RNA-based genetic analysis using a single hair bulb
research Assembly of Hair Keratins in Transfected Epithelial Cells
Mouse hair keratins mHa1 and mHb4 can't form a strong network on their own in cells.
research Decision letter: Structural basis of malodour precursor transport in the human axilla
The study identified a key protein involved in producing underarm odor and found ways to inhibit it.
research Protein chains in hair and epidermal keratin IF: Structural features and spatial arrangements
research Letter from Brisbane [Letters to editor]
A Japanese patient with a rare genetic disorder had a less severe case than others, suggesting other factors may affect symptoms.
research 766 H3K9me3 methyltransferase SETDB1 controls retrotransposon silencing, DNA methylation, constitutive heterochromatin maintenance and 3D-chromatin structure in epidermal keratinocytes
SETDB1 is essential for controlling DNA methylation, silencing retrotransposons, and maintaining skin cell health, with its absence leading to skin inflammation and hair loss.
research Epigen Transgenic Mice Develop Enlarged Sebaceous Glands
Overexpressing the epigen gene in mice leads to enlarged sebaceous glands and greasy fur.
research Alopecia in Harlequin mutant mice is associated with reduced AIF protein levels and expression of retroviral elements
Harlequin mutant mice have hair loss due to low AIF protein levels and retroviral element activity.
research A mutation in the type II hair keratin KRT86 gene in a Han family with monilethrix
A new mutation in the KRT86 gene was found to cause the hair disorder monilethrix in a Han family.
research De novo filament formation by human hair keratins K85 and K35 follows a filament development pattern distinct from cytokeratin filament networks
Human hair keratins K85 and K35 create unique filament patterns important for early hair formation.
research Genetic Fate Mapping Using Site-Specific Recombinases
The document concludes that careful design of genetic fate mapping experiments is crucial for accurate cell lineage tracing in mice.
research Expression of ΔNLef1 in mouse epidermis results in differentiation of hair follicles into squamous epidermal cysts and formation of skin tumours
Overexpression of ΔNLef1 in mouse skin leads to hair loss, cysts, and skin tumors.
research Polymorphisms and association of FAT1 gene with wool quality traits in Chinese Merino sheep
The FAT1 gene and its variations can help improve wool quality in Chinese Merino sheep through selective breeding.
research SIRT 7 activates quiescent hair follicle stem cells to ensure hair growth in mice
SIRT7 protein is crucial for starting hair growth in mice.
research Delayed hair cycle in mnd2 mutant mice lacking HtrA2 serine protease activity
HtrA2 activity is crucial for normal hair growth by regulating fat cell development.
research Mutations in Homocysteine Metabolism Genes Increase Keratin N-Homocysteinylation and Damage in Mice
Genetic mutations that disrupt homocysteine breakdown lead to increased damage in mouse hair keratin.
research Human hair keratin-associated proteins: Sequence regularities and structural implications
Keratin-associated proteins help link filaments and affect keratin's strength.
research DNA Methylation Dynamics During Esophageal Epithelial Regeneration Following Repair with Acellular Silk Fibroin Grafts in Rat
DNA methylation changes affect gene expression during esophageal healing with silk grafts in rats.
research 321 Deletion of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl 4-hydroxylase 2 in FoxD1-lineage mesenchymal cells leads to congenital truncal alopecia
Removing HIF-P4H-2 from certain skin cells in mice causes hair loss on the body but not the head.
research Mutations in the Keratin 85 (KRT85/hHb5) Gene Underlie Pure Hair and Nail Ectodermal Dysplasia
Mutations in the KRT85 gene cause hair and nail problems.
research 157 Analysis of the hybrid schwannoma and neurofibroma including a case report of schwannomatosis caused by a mutation in the LZTR1 gene
Some people with schwannomatosis have a new type of mutation in the LZTR1 gene.
