This study identified novel mutations in the DSG4 gene in a Japanese patient with monilethrix, affecting protein interactions that may disrupt hair shaft structure.

This study identified four novel DSG4 mutations associated with monilethrix in 12 Jewish families, suggesting a recessive inheritance pattern and broader prevalence of DSG4-related hair disorders than previously recognized.

A gene deletion in DSG4 causes sparse hair in some Pakistani families.

This study reports that a homozygous A1103G mutation in DSG 4 is responsible for localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis in a 2-year-old Chinese girl, resulting in reduced DSG 4 expression and hair defects.

This study identified genetic variants in the DSG4 gene associated with the autosomal recessive form of monilethrix in Chinese patients, expanding the understanding of its phenotypic spectrum and clinical features.
