This study identified Activin A and follistatin as key regulators of hair cell differentiation in the mammalian auditory sensory epithelium, with Activin A signaling influencing the timing and pattern of cell differentiation.

This study identified Activin A and its antagonist follistatin as crucial regulators of hair cell differentiation in mice, suggesting a local gradient of Activin A influences auditory sensory epithelium development.

This study identifies Activin A and follistatin as key regulators of hair cell differentiation in the mouse auditory sensory epithelium, influencing the timing and pattern of hair cell development.

In this case report, an 8-year-old Spitz dog with refractory dermatophytosis showed significant clinical improvement after switching to posaconazole, chosen based on antifungal susceptibility testing, offering a promising treatment option for dogs unresponsive to standard antifungal therapies.

This study used whole-genome resequencing to analyze genetic diversity and selection in 17 rabbit breeds, identifying genes linked to traits like coat color and body size, which could inform breeding and conservation efforts.

This study found that Mueller-Hinton Agar performed better than Dermasel Agar for antifungal susceptibility testing of feline dermatophytes, providing reliable susceptibility data for effective antifungal therapy.

This study found that ancient and modern Chinese goats share close genetic ties, originating from the Fertile Crescent, with genetic divergence influenced by China's climatic divisions.

This study found that GLI2 plays a key role in activating follistatin, an activin/BMP antagonist, in response to hedgehog signaling in human epidermal cells, with implications for hair follicle development and basal cell carcinoma.

This case series highlights that diagnosing ovarian Leydig cell tumors can be challenging, and expert sonography is crucial for accurate identification, as imaging modalities like CT, MRI, and PET-CT may fail to detect them.

This study observed that selectively activating activin in the epidermis of mice enhanced reepithelialization during wound healing without altering the quality of the healed wound.

This study investigated the genetic basis of coat color variation in cattle using skin transcriptome and whole-genome analyses, identifying the ASIP gene as a significant determinant that is differentially expressed and under strong positive selection in black and brown cattle breeds.

This study discovered nine human type I hair keratin genes, including a transcribed pseudogene, in a 190 kbp genomic region, revealing three gene subclusters based on sequence homologies.

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 article outlines the scope, publication standards, and authorship responsibilities of the International Journal of KIU, but reports no new research results.

This study concludes that anti-androgenic chemicals causing short anogenital distance in male fetuses also induce a feminized transcriptional profile in the perineum, implicating Wnt and estrogen signaling in the process.

The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.

This study found that telomere shortening disrupts BMP/pSmad/P63 signaling, leading to skin atrophy via Follistatin up-regulation, and suggests potential therapeutic targets.

In this study, whole-genome sequencing of Lanping black-boned sheep identified ERBB4 and ROR1 genes as potentially important in their distinctive hyperpigmentation, enhancing understanding of their genetic evolution from Lanping normal sheep.

This case report describes a 6-year-old boy with a scalp infection caused by Candida parapsilosis, which was successfully treated with 2% ketoconazole ointment after other treatments failed; antifungal susceptibility testing showed variable drug resistance.

In this study, a case of a Spitz dog with refractory dermatophytosis demonstrated marked clinical improvement and complete cure with Posaconazole, highlighting the potential of antifungal susceptibility testing to guide effective treatment in persistent infections unresponsive to standard therapies.
