Activating cannabinoid receptor 1 reduces certain keratin levels, potentially aiding psoriasis treatment.
research Identification of Novel Mutations in Basic Hair Keratins hHb1 and hHb6 in Monilethrix: Implications for Protein Structure and Clinical Phenotype
New mutations in hair keratin genes can change hair structure and cause monilethrix, with nail issues more common in certain gene mutations.
research Distinct mechanisms for sebaceous gland self-renewal and regeneration provide durability in response to injury
Sebaceous glands can regenerate after injury using stem cells from hair follicles.
research Expression of truncated latent TGF-β-binding protein modulates TGF-β signaling
Truncated LTBP-1 disrupts TGF-β signaling, affecting hair growth.
research Keratin intermediate filaments in the colon: guardians of epithelial homeostasis
Keratin proteins are essential for keeping the cells in the human colon healthy and stable.
research Mechanisms Involved in the Relationship between Vitamin D and Insulin Resistance: Impact on Clinical Practice
Vitamin D might help regulate insulin in the body, but taking Vitamin D supplements doesn't clearly prevent or improve type 2 diabetes. More research is needed.
research Betacellulin Regulates Hair Follicle Development and Hair Cycle Induction and Enhances Angiogenesis in Wounded Skin
Betacellulin helps blood vessel growth in wounds but delays hair growth.

Stem cells can help other stem cells by producing supportive factors.
research A Mutational Hotspot in the 2B Domain of Human Hair Basic Keratin 6 (hHb6) in Monilethrix Patients
A common mutation in the hHb6 gene is linked to monilethrix, but other factors may also play a role.
research Distinct transcriptomic landscapes of cutaneous basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas
Basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas have different gene activity patterns, suggesting unique treatment approaches.
research Pleiotropic Role of Notch Signaling in Human Skin Diseases
Notch signaling disruptions can cause various skin diseases.
research Sequence and expression of human hair keratin genes
Human hair keratin genes are similar to mouse genes and are specifically expressed in hair follicles.
research Novel insights into the pathways regulating the canine hair cycle and their deregulation in alopecia X
The study concluded that similar pathways regulate hair growth in dogs and mice, and these pathways are disrupted in dogs with Alopecia X, affecting stem cells and hormone metabolism.
research Emerging roles of Sox6 in the renal and cardiovascular system
Sox6 is important in heart and kidney health, affecting diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure.
research An epistatic effect of KRT25 on SP6 is involved in curly coat in horses
The genes KRT25 and SP6 affect curly hair in horses, with KRT25 also causing hair loss. If both genes are mutated, the horse gets curly hair and hair loss. KRT25 can hide the effect of SP6.
