This study found that in Merino-Southdown cross sheep, the presence of the C variant of the KRTAP26-1 gene was associated with higher wool quality, including increased wool yield and staple length.

This study generated a gene-edited cashmere goat with improved cashmere yield and fiber length by integrating VEGF at the FGF5 site, offering insights into hair growth mechanisms.

This study used single-cell techniques and lineage tracing to reveal that integrin α6 expression in neural crest cells can differentiate them into Schwann cells, melanocytes, and fibroblasts in skin, identifying integrin α6 as a potential marker for these derivatives.

In this study on Chinese Tan sheep, researchers discovered a variant of the KRTAP19-5 gene associated with decreased curvature of fine wool fibres, highlighting potential genetic markers for improving wool quality.

This study identified three genes in the ovine KAP13 family on chromosome 1 and found that a specific allele of KRTAP13-2 is associated with improved wool fibre diameter uniformity in Chinese Tan sheep, suggesting its potential use as a marker for enhancing wool traits.

This study identified a new genetic variant in the KRT71 gene responsible for a breed-specific form of hypotrichosis in Hereford cattle, potentially serving as a model for similar human conditions.

This study identified novel genetic variations in the KRTAP22-2 gene among eight sheep breeds but found no association between these genotypes and wool fibre traits, indicating possible species-specific differences compared to goats.

This study reported that a novel cationic liposome formulation for delivering encapsulated Cas9 protein and sgRNA successfully decreased SRD5α2 mRNA expression by 29.7% in vitro, suggesting a potential alternative treatment option for conditions like prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia without current drug side effects.

This study identified a new gene in sheep, KRTAP36-2, discovering variants associated with wool yield. Variations in this gene were linked to the efficiency of fleece conversion from greasy to clean, which may enhance wool production.

This review examines the interplay of genetics and neuroimmunology in alopecia areata, highlighting its potential to inform broader autoimmunity research, but reports no new findings.

In this study, dutasteride more effectively reduced prostate cancer cell viability than finasteride in vitro, but did not significantly alter the angiogenic response.

This study found thousands of differentially expressed genes and proteins that may be associated with wool growth, suggesting potential gene families involved in hair growth regulation.

This study found that higher levels of AR expression are linked to a decreased risk of severe COVID-19 in females, and identified ACE2, MX1, and TMPRSS2 as important molecular markers for COVID-19 management.

This study found that using trait prevalence-informed priors may improve the prediction accuracy of appearance traits in Bayesian models, but their application is limited by sparse knowledge on trait prevalence.

This case report describes a 10-month-old boy with VACTERL association and athymia who developed Omenn syndrome, highlighting the complex overlap of these conditions and the challenging clinical course due to profound T-cell immunodeficiency.

This study found that integrating machine learning enhances the predictive accuracy of forensic DNA phenotyping from low template DNA, achieving high accuracy for traits like eye color, although challenges remain for admixed populations and complex traits.

This review discusses forensic DNA phenotyping and its potential applications, particularly for human identification in Latin American populations, but notes challenges due to genetic diversity and reports no new results.

This review discusses advances in CRISPR/Cas9 variants and nanoformulations for cancer treatment, noting challenges and prospects for clinical application, but reports no new research results.

This article discusses the pulmonary manifestations of Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome, noting diagnostic challenges in differentiating it from other lung conditions, and underlines the need for further research on folliculin's role in cyst formation.

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.

This review details phenol's dermatological uses and underscores its potent skin rejuvenation effects but emphasizes the need for caution due to risks of serious complications, including cardiac arrhythmias and organ failure, particularly with improper use or large-area applications.

This systematic review and meta-analysis reported potential risk variants for acne in genes related to inflammation and sebaceous gland function, including TNF, CYP17A1, and FST, across diverse populations.

This study highlights the importance of understanding the roles of hyperandrogenemia and insulin resistance in the development and progression of PCOS, emphasizing further research to clarify their mutual influence.

This review discusses the dual role of testosterone in COVID-19 progression and suggests its importance in understanding the disease's mechanisms, highlighting the need for further targeted research.

The study observed that testosterone reduced knee range of motion in ovariectomized female rats, potentially by downregulating specific relaxin receptor isoforms, with its effects mediated via dihydro-testosterone.

This review discusses the benefits and cardiovascular risks of androgen deprivation therapy for prostate cancer patients, noting that optimizing cardiovascular risk factors is important when using ADT.

This review discusses the mechanisms of platinum-induced peripheral neuropathy related to reactive oxygen species and explores potential antioxidant therapies and nanotechnology approaches, but reports no new clinical results.

This meta-analysis suggests that individuals with vertex baldness may have a higher risk of prostate cancer, though overall baldness is not significantly associated with prostate cancer risk.

This study found that the gene SRD5A1, associated with methylation changes due to early-life environment, may play a role in altering reproductive phenotypes in women by delaying pubertal onset and decreasing ovarian reserve.
