Functional roles of Keratin 6A in disease pathogenesis across cancer and skin disorders. (PubMed, Exp Biol Med (Maywood))
Beyond oncology, mutations in KRT6A underlie pachyonychia congenita, and its dysregulation contributes to epidermal hyperproliferative disorders such as psoriasis. Overall, systematic elucidation of the structure-function-pathway-clinical axis of KRT6A offers new opportunities for precision medicine and supports its potential as a therapeutic target in cancer management.

Single-cell transcriptomic landscape of keratinocyte transformation from actinic keratosis to skin carcinoma. (PubMed, iScience)
Functional assays using IL13RA1 and IL4R knockdown confirmed that IL-13 signaling promotes keratinocyte proliferation and migration. These findings define a key immunoregulatory pathway linking epithelial transformation and immune interaction, providing a cellular framework for understanding early cSCC development and identifying potential targets for intervention.

Mitogen-activated protein kinase 10 suppresses non-small cell lung cancer metastasis through phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination of keratin 16. (PubMed, Int J Biol Macromol)
Furthermore, high MAPK10 expression was associated with a favorable prognosis in NSCLC patients, as evidenced by a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.42 (95 % confidence interval: 0.28-0.63). Collectively, these findings establish the MAPK10/KRT16/RNF213 axis as a promising therapeutic target and prognostic biomarker for NSCLC metastasis, providing new directions for the development of personalized treatment strategies.

Identification of keratinocyte-associated genes for immune characterization and drug response prediction in oral squamous cell carcinoma. (PubMed, PeerJ)
Finally, in vitro experiments showed that the viability, migration, and invasion of OSCC cells were markedly suppressed after knockdown of KRT16. Our study provided novel biomarkers targeting keratinocytes for the treatment of OSCC.

Keratin-Acetate Dressing Accelerates Diabetic Wound Healing, Promotes M2 Macrophage Polarization and Increases Cytokeratins 16 and 17 Expression-In Vitro and In Vivo Studies. (PubMed, Macromol Biosci)
The dressing preserved structural integrity, demonstrated favorable cytocompatibility, and modulated key inflammatory and regenerative pathways. These findings underscore the translational potential of FKDP+0.1%Act as a dual-functional biomaterial capable of enhancing epithelial regeneration and reprogramming inflammatory responses in impaired diabetic wound environments.

Transcriptomic Profiling of Gastric Cancer Reveals Key Biomarkers and Pathways via Bioinformatic Analysis. (PubMed, Genes (Basel))
This integrative transcriptomic and machine learning framework effectively identified high-confidence biomarkers for GC. Notably, CST1, TIMP1, KRT16, and ATP4A emerged as consistent, biologically relevant candidates with strong diagnostic performance and potential clinical utility. These findings may aid early detection strategies and guide future therapeutic developments in gastric cancer.
