research Mammalian keratin associated proteins (KRTAPs) subgenomes: disentangling hair diversity and adaptation to terrestrial and aquatic environments
Different hair types in mammals are linked to variations in specific protein genes, with changes influenced by their living environments.
research An unexpected role for keratin 10 end domains in susceptibility to skin cancer
Keratin 10 end domains may increase skin cancer risk by reducing cell death.
research Comparative genomics analyses of alpha-keratins reveal insights into evolutionary adaptation of marine mammals
Marine mammals lost many α-keratin genes, aiding their adaptation to aquatic life by becoming hairless.
research A novel mutation in Hr causes abnormal hair follicle morphogenesis in hairpoor mouse, an animal model for Marie Unna Hereditary Hypotrichosis
A new mutation in the Hr gene causes hair loss in mice, similar to a human hair disorder.
research The β9 Loop Domain of PA-PLA1α Has a Crucial Role in Autosomal Recessive Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis
A specific mutation in PA-PLA1α causes abnormal hair growth.
research Pitfalls of mapping a large Turkish consanguineous family with vertical monilethrix inheritance.
A mutation in the KRT86 gene causes hair fragility in a Turkish family.
research Identification of lncRNAs involved in the hair follicle cycle transition of cashmere goats in response to photoperiod change
lncRNAs may help control cashmere goat hair growth by responding to light changes.
research Analysis of R199H Polymorphism of Canine Melanophilin Gene (MLPH) in Population of Czech Pointer in Slovakia
The study found genetic diversity in coat color dilution among Czech pointers in Slovakia.
research FGF5 is a crucial regulator of hair length in humans
FGF5 gene mutations cause unusually long eyelashes by affecting hair growth regulation.
research Alopecia Universalis Associated with a Mutation in the Human hairless Gene
A mutation in the human hairless gene causes alopecia universalis.
research Is the Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome a Keratin Disorder?
Loose anagen hair syndrome may be caused by keratin gene mutations.
research CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated loss of FGF5 function increases wool staple length in sheep
Disabling the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to longer wool.
research The systemic wrinkled skin phenotype involves aberrant expression and variation of genes related to the oxidative stress and extracellular matrix in Xiang pigs
Wrinkled skin in Xiang pigs is linked to gene changes related to oxidative stress and the extracellular matrix.
research Case Report: A Deletion Variant in the DCAF17 Gene Underlying Woodhouse-Sakati Syndrome in a Chinese Consanguineous Family
A genetic mutation in the DCAF17 gene caused Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome in a Chinese patient from a related family.
research Case report: Novel p.Val306Met missense mutation in TRPV3 in a case of Olmsted syndrome accompanied by squamous cell carcinoma
A new gene mutation linked to Olmsted syndrome may increase cancer risk, suggesting the need for ongoing patient monitoring.
research Clinical, biochemical and mutational findings in biotinidase deficiency among Malaysian population
Some children in Malaysia with symptoms have either profound or partial biotinidase deficiency, and early testing and treatment are important.
research Analysis of Genome DNA Methylation at Inherited Coat Color Dilutions of Rex Rabbits
Inherited color dilution in rabbits is linked to DNA methylation changes.
research Sox13 is a novel early marker for hair follicle development
Sox13 is a useful marker for early hair follicle development but not essential for hair growth.
research Keratin 79 is a PPARA target that is highly expressed by liver damage
Keratin 79 is linked to liver damage and may help diagnose liver diseases.
research Identification of two additional novel mutations in the AR gene associated with severe forms of androgen insensitivity syndrome

research Biochemical and Structural Characteristics, Gene Regulation, Physiological, Pathological and Clinical Features of Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase as a Multifunctional Lipocalin
Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L-PGDS) is a protein that plays many roles in the body, including sleep regulation, pain management, food intake, and protection against harmful substances. It also affects fat metabolism, glucose intolerance, cell maturation, and is involved in various diseases like diabetes, cancer, and arthritis. It can influence sex organ development and embryonic cell differentiation, and its levels can be used as a diagnostic marker for certain conditions.
