Matriptase is crucial for skin barrier, hair growth, and may contribute to skin cancer.

Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.

Matriptase-2 helps control iron levels by suppressing hepcidin, and its deficiency can cause iron-deficiency anemia.

Matriptase is crucial for keeping epithelial tissues healthy and functioning properly.

A new mutation in the ST14 gene causes a rare skin and hair disorder in a specific family.

A new mutation in the ST14 gene broadens the understanding of ichthyosis-hypotrichosis syndrome.

Mutations in the ST14 gene cause skin and hair issues by disrupting important protein processing.

Matriptase is crucial for skin, hair, and immune cell health, and its imbalance can lead to cancer.

Matriptase is highly active in hair follicles and sebaceous glands, especially during hair growth phases.

Skin lesions in Carney complex are likely caused by a specific group of skin cells that promote pigment production due to a genetic mutation.

New gene identification techniques have improved the understanding and classification of inherited hair disorders.

The cornified envelope is crucial for skin's barrier function and involves key proteins and genetic factors.

Prostasin has two roles in skin: one for normal skin development without needing activation, and another for proper hair growth that requires activation.
