research A Brazilian case of IFAP syndrome with severe congenital ichthyosis and limb malformations caused by a rare variant in MBTPS2
A Brazilian male with IFAP syndrome has a unique genetic variant causing his condition.
research Patched-assoziierte Tumoren: Modifikatorgene und Pathogenese
The document concludes that the development of certain tumors is influenced by genetic background and that a specific gene modification can lead to tumor regression and reduced growth.
research Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss with no cure and treatments that often don't work well.
research Identifying the Target Cells and Mechanisms of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection
Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.
research Androgens and hair loss
The document concludes that hair transplantation and gene therapy may be important for future hair loss treatment.
research Cutaneous drug reactions
Any drug can cause skin reactions, but antibiotics, NSAIDs, and psychotropic drugs are more common, with some reactions being life-threatening.
research Etiopathogenesis of Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss, influenced by genetics, environment, and possibly improved by anti-MIF therapy, with many patients experiencing regrowth within a year.
research Characterisation of Three Ovine KRTAP13 Family Genes and Their Association with Wool Traits in Chinese Tan Sheep
An allele of the KRTAP13-2 gene may improve wool quality in sheep.
research Promoter Methylation Changes in KRT17: A Novel Epigenetic Marker for Wool Production in Angora Rabbit
Changes in KRT17 gene activity linked to wool production in Angora rabbits.
research Characterization of sciellin, a precursor to the cornified envelope of human keratinocytes
Sciellin is a protein that helps form protective layers in skin, hair, and nails.
research Structure–property relationships of meta-kerateine biomaterials derived from human hair
Protein composition greatly affects the function of keratin biomaterials.
research Repairing the lungs one breath at a time: How dedicated or facultative are you?
Lung repair involves both dedicated and flexible stem cells, important for developing new treatments.
research Live imaging reveals chromatin compaction transitions and dynamic transcriptional bursting during stem cell differentiation in vivo
Stem cell differentiation involves gradual chromatin changes and dynamic gene activity.
research Neural Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein modulates Wnt signaling and is required for hair follicle cycling in mice
N-WASP is essential for normal hair growth in mice.
research Transcriptome Profile at Different Physiological Stages Reveals Potential Mode for Curly Fleece in Chinese Tan Sheep
Genetic differences between young and old Tan sheep explain why their fleece changes from curly to straight as they age.
research Directed Expression of a Chimeric Type II Keratin Partially Rescues Keratin 5-null Mice
A chimeric keratin partially improved skin structure in mice lacking keratin 5, but didn't fully restore normal skin.
research Pathogenesis of pili annulati
Pili annulati is caused by a protein metabolism disorder affecting hair structure.
research Immunostaining study of cytokeratins in human hair follicle development
The study found that specific proteins are markers of hair follicle development in human fetuses.
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.
research Structural changes in the trichocyte intermediate filaments accompanying the transition from the reduced to the oxidized form
Oxidation changes the structure of hair protein filaments, causing them to compact and rearrange.
research A Recurrent Intragenic Deletion in the Desmoglein 4 Gene Underlies Localized Autosomal Recessive Hypotrichosis
A gene deletion in DSG4 causes sparse hair in some Pakistani families.
research Isolation and Characterization of Mouse High-glycine/Tyrosine Proteins
Mouse high-glycine/tyrosine proteins have distinct patterns in hair follicles, peaking at specific hair cycle days.
research 475 Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) L55M and Q192R polymorphisms, lipid profiles and psoriasis
The PON1 192R gene variant is linked to a higher risk of psoriasis and heart disease in Western Mexico.
research The mouse keratin 6 isoforms are differentially expressed in the hair follicle, footpad, tongue and activated epidermis
Mouse keratin 6 isoforms have different expression patterns in various tissues.
research Keratins as an Inflammation Trigger Point in Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex
Mutant keratins cause inflammation in Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex, suggesting targeting them could help treat the disorder.
research Transcriptome Profiling and Differential Gene Expression in Canine Microdissected Anagen and Telogen Hair Follicles and Interfollicular Epidermis
Different genes are active in dogs' hair growth and skin, similar to humans, which helps understand dog skin and hair diseases and can relate to human conditions.
research Identification of llama KRTAP7-1 and KRTAP8-1 fiber genes and polymorphism screening
Mutations in specific llama genes may affect fiber quality for textiles.
research Building Models for Keratin Disorders
Krt16-deficient mice help understand skin disorders like PC and FNEPPK.
research Role of the bone morphogenetic protein signalling in skin carcinogenesis. Effect of transgenic overexpression of BMP antognist Noggin on skin tumour development; molecular mechanisms underlying tumour suppressive role of the BMP signalling in skin.
BMP signaling helps prevent skin tumors by blocking cancer-promoting pathways.
