This study found that an SNP in the FGFR2 gene, rs4752566, was significantly associated with hair thickness in Asian populations, suggesting an effect on hair morphology through altered FGFR2 expression levels.

This study suggests that the DORN1 receptor may play a role in eATP-induced changes in stomatal aperture in Arabidopsis thaliana, but not in the eADP signaling pathway.

In this study, researchers found that AGD1 is crucial for membrane recruitment during root hair development in Arabidopsis thaliana, with its pleckstrin homology domain essential for targeting specific plasma membrane regions.

This study identified key genes involved in feather follicle development in Wannan chickens, finding that genes such as LAMC2, COL6A3, and WNT7A are crucial in the regulation processes, potentially aiding molecular breeding programs for improved carcass appearance traits.

This study identifies two previously unreported pathogenic RIPK4 gene variants, suggesting a functional link with cell adhesion molecules in ectodermal dysplasias.

Zeb2 is crucial for nerve repair by controlling Schwann cell function.

In this mouse model study, researchers found that deleting the ASH2L gene in epidermal progenitor cells led to thinner epidermal layers, delayed hair follicle development, and reduced epidermal stem cell pools, with alterations in genes related to hair follicle development and the Notch signaling pathway.

This study found that, in mice, different precursor populations give rise to Merkel cells in hairy versus glabrous skin, but their formation is controlled by a common genetic program involving FGFR2 signaling.

This study identified a new heterozygous mutation in the connexin 26 gene (c.263C>T; p.Ala88Val) in a premature neonate with KID syndrome, who later died from complications.

This study reports that structural and biochemical analysis of steroid 5α-reductases clarifies how they mediate steroid reduction with NADPH, potentially aiding in designing targeted therapies.
