Mutant keratins cause inflammation in Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex, suggesting targeting them could help treat the disorder.
research Characterisation of an Ovine Keratin Associated Protein (KAP) Gene, Which Would Produce a Protein Rich in Glycine and Tyrosine, but Lacking in Cysteine
A new sheep gene, KRTAP36-1, may help breed sheep with better wool by reducing prickle factor.
research Outer root sheath keratinization in anagen and catagen of the mammalian hair follicle. A seventh distinct type of keratinization in the hair follicle: trichilemmal keratinization.
Trichilemmal keratinization is a unique process in hair follicles where the outer root sheath turns into keratin without a specific layer.
research Expression of novel keratin associated protein 5 genes in the cuticle layer of human hair follicles
The study found nine new hair protein genes in human hair follicles.
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 AP collagen peptides improve hair growth and quality by promoting human hair cell proliferation and keratin synthesis
AP collagen peptides may help hair grow better and become stronger.
research Sebocytes are the Key Regulators of Androgen Homeostasis in Human Skin
Sebocytes play a key role in controlling androgen levels in human skin.
research Evidence for Novel Functions of the Keratin Tail Emerging from a Mutation Causing Ichthyosis Hystrix
The keratin tail is crucial for skin structure and function.
research Expression of the Orphan Protein Plet-1 during Trichilemmal Differentiation of Anagen Hair Follicles
Plet-1 protein helps hair follicle cells move and stick to tissues.
research Morphogenesis and maintenance of the 3D thymic medulla and prevention of nude skin phenotype require FoxN1 in pre- and post-natal K14 epithelium
FoxN1 gene is essential for proper thymus structure and preventing hair loss.
research Adverse cutaneous reactions to chemotherapeutic agents and cytokine therapy
Chemotherapy and cytokine therapy can cause various skin reactions, including hair loss and hypersensitivity.
research Solitary pedunculated multicystic viral plaque associated with canine papillomavirus 18 in a British Bulldog
A British Bulldog had a unique viral plaque caused by Canine papillomavirus 18, different from typical tumors.
research 703 Anti-aging potential of gypenosides fraction obtained from naturally grown Gynostemma pentaphyllum in Ulleungdo Island and its 7 new gypenosides
Gypenosides from Gynostemma pentaphyllum were found to have anti-aging effects, increasing skin collagen and reducing wrinkles.
research Human KAP Genes, Only the Half of it? Extensive Size Polymorphisms in Hair Keratin-Associated Protein Genes
KAP genes show significant genetic variability, but its impact on hair traits is unclear.
research Pitx2, a β-catenin-regulated transcription factor, regulates the differentiation of outer root sheath cells cultured in vitro
Pitx2 helps outer root sheath cells differentiate but can't start hair growth on its own.
research Disruption of Smad4 in Mouse Epidermis Leads to Depletion of Follicle Stem Cells
Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.
research Label Retaining Cells (LRCs) with Myoepithelial Characteristic from the Proximal Acinar Region Define Stem Cells in the Sweat Gland
Sweat gland stem cells help maintain glands, aid wound healing, and can regenerate skin structures.
research Characterization of the Promoter Regions of Two Sheep Keratin-Associated Protein Genes for Hair Cortex-Specific Expression
The KRTAP11-1 gene promoter is crucial for specific expression in sheep wool cortex.
research Ectopic Expression of a Truncated Isoform of Hair Keratin 81 in Breast Cancer Alters Biophysical Characteristics to Promote Metastatic Propensity
A specific hair protein variant increases the spread of breast cancer and is linked to worse survival rates.
research Heparan Sulfate Regulates Hair Follicle and Sebaceous Gland Morphogenesis and Homeostasis
Heparan sulfate is important for hair growth, preventing new hair formation in mature skin, and controlling oil gland development.
research Conversion of the Nipple to Hair-Bearing Epithelia by Lowering Bone Morphogenetic Protein Pathway Activity at the Dermal-Epidermal Interface
Blocking a specific protein signal can make hair grow on mouse nipples.
research Mutations in SREBF1, Encoding Sterol Regulatory Element Binding Transcription Factor 1, Cause Autosomal-Dominant IFAP Syndrome
Changes in the SREBF1 gene cause a rare genetic skin and hair disorder.
research Multi-potentiality of a new immortalized epithelial stem cell line derived from human hair follicles
Scientists created a long-lasting stem cell line from human hair that can turn into different skin and hair cell types.
research Transforming Growth Factor-??, Smad, and Collagen Expression Patterns in Fetal and Adult Keratinocytes
Keratinocytes show more TGF-β system activity and collagen production as they age, which might affect wound scarring.
research Increased Rate of Hair Regrowth in Mice with Constitutive Overexpression of Del1
Mice genetically modified to produce more Del1 protein had faster hair regrowth.
research 312 CRISPR/Cas9-based targeted genome editing for correction of recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa using iPS cells
