The research identified key proteins and genes that may influence wool bending in goats.
research Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds—Revisiting the cause of a well-known disease
Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds is caused by structural defects in hair shafts due to downregulated genes and proteins.
research Transcriptome Analysis of Improved Wool Production in Skin-Specific Transgenic Sheep Overexpressing Ovine β-Catenin
Genetically modified sheep with more β-catenin grew more wool without changing the wool's length or thickness.
research A Kaleidoscope of Keratin Gene Expression and the Mosaic of Its Regulatory Mechanisms
Keratin protein production in cells is controlled by a complex system that changes with cell type, health, and conditions like injury or cancer.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
Genes related to keratin, skin cell differentiation, and immune functions are key in hedgehog skin and spine development.
research Loose anagen hair syndrome in two patients with epidermolysis bullosa simplex, Dowling-Meara type
Two patients with the same genetic mutation had both blistering skin and easily pulled out hair.
research Keratin biomaterials for wound healing and tissue regeneration: A promising approach in biomedical applications
Keratin biomaterials could help heal wounds and regenerate tissue, but more testing is needed.
research Activation of the integrated stress response in human hair follicles
Blocking the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier causes stress in hair follicles, which can be reduced by an ISR inhibitor.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
The study found that certain genes are important for hedgehog skin appendage development and immunity, with spines possibly evolving for protection and infection resistance.
research Alopecia areata susceptibility variant identified by MHC risk haplotype sequencing reproduces symptomatic patched hair loss in mice
A gene variant causes patched hair loss in mice, similar to alopecia areata in humans.
research Cosmeceuticals for Hair Loss and Hair Care
Some plant-based ingredients may help with hair growth and care, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness.
research Interventional and Intrinsic Airway Homeostasis and Repair
The document concludes that more research is needed to understand airway repair and to improve tissue engineering for lung treatments.
research Monilethrix: Beaded hair and hypotrichosis in a child
A 9-year-old girl has a rare hair disorder causing beaded, sparse hair.
research Defining the Localization and Molecular Characteristic of Minor Salivary Gland Label-Retaining Cells
The study found stem cells in minor salivary glands that can differentiate and are involved in tumor formation when exposed to tobacco.
research Preparing the hair follicle canal for hair shaft emergence
A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.
research Alopecia areata profiling shows TH1, TH2, and IL-23 cytokine activation without parallel TH17/TH22 skewing
Alopecia areata involves immune activation in the scalp, suggesting treatments targeting TH1, TH2, and IL-23 pathways.
research Biology and Genetics of Hair
The document concludes that understanding the genes and pathways involved in hair growth is crucial for developing treatments for hair diseases.
research An Integrated Analysis of Cashmere Fineness lncRNAs in Cashmere Goats
lncRNA XLOC_008679 and gene KRT35 affect cashmere fineness in goats.
research Essential Role of STAT3 Signaling in Hair Follicle Homeostasis
STAT3 signaling is important for healthy skin and hair follicles, and its disruption can lead to skin conditions like atopic dermatitis.
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 Epithelial stem cells and implications for wound repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
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 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 Secretory phospholipase A2-IIA overexpressing mice exhibit cyclic alopecia mediated through aberrant hair shaft differentiation and impaired wound healing response
Mice with too much sPLA₂-IIA have hair loss and poor wound healing due to abnormal hair growth and stem cell depletion.
research Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the KRT82 promoter region modulate irregular thickening and patchiness in the dorsal skin of New Zealand rabbits
Certain genetic changes in the KRT82 gene may cause patchy skin in New Zealand rabbits.
research Clinical Snippets
Some cells may slow melanoma growth, a protein could affect skin pigmentation, a gene-silencing method might treat hair defects, skin bacteria changes likely result from eczema, and a defensin protein could help treat multiple sclerosis.
