This study found that differences in skin transcriptomes between juvenile and adult mink, as well as between black and white mink, suggest genes regulating hair color are active during early development rather than adulthood.

This study concluded that while sex-related biological factors may influence COVID-19 outcomes, they do not fully explain the differences in mortality between women and men, underscoring the need for a gendered, intersectional approach to understanding health inequities and risk factors.

This review found that while forensic DNA phenotyping and health applications for pigmentation genetics show potential, factors like phenotype definition and population diversity present challenges to accurate genotype-to-appearance predictions.

In this study, a computational analysis of promoter regions in human fertility-related genes identified several new candidate regulatory motifs, but these require further experimental validation due to the limitations of being an in silico examination.

This review explored the causes of hair graying and evaluated how plant-derived extracts and phytochemicals might alleviate it, noting that certain compounds showed potential in enhancing melanocyte function, reducing oxidative stress, and influencing stress-related pathways based on experimental evidence.

In this study, researchers identified three pathogenic de novo genetic variants contributing to epidermolysis bullosa simplex in young children, highlighting the complexity of genetic influences and underscoring the need for early genetic screening for accurate diagnosis and effective management.

This review discusses the complexity of identifying hair follicle antigens involved in alopecia areata and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for further research on autoantigen identity.

This study examined dermal papilla cells from hair follicles, finding that gene expression changes linked to wound healing and stem cell activity align with hair follicle regression, which could inform strategies for hair growth and skin rejuvenation.

This study identified a missense variant in the EDA gene of a male cat, which likely caused hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, characterized by hair and teeth abnormalities; this represents the first report of such a genetic condition in cats.

This review discusses recurrent implantation failure (RIF) in IVF, noting the lack of standard definitions or treatment protocols, and emphasizes the need for individualized treatment and further research.

This review discusses androgen receptor targeting as a potential treatment strategy for triple-negative breast cancer and reports no new experimental outcomes.

This review summarizes recent findings on keratins 6, 16, and 17, highlighting their role in keratinocyte behavior and nuclear functions, and discusses their potential as biomarkers for various skin pathologies, including damage, inflammation, and cancer, rather than in healthy skin.

This review discusses stem cell therapy as a promising treatment for epidermolysis bullosa, highlighting preliminary successes in treating skin lesions but noting the need for further research on effectiveness and safety.

This study suggests that PRX01, PRX44, and PRX73 regulate extensin-mediated cell wall properties during root hair cell growth, influencing growth patterns, peroxidase activity, and cell wall thickness.

In this study, the misshaped and hairy ear phenotype in mutant mice was linked to mis-expression of certain Hoxc genes due to a chromosomal inversion.

This case study describes a patient with Turner syndrome who, despite lacking many classic features, presented with multiple autoimmune diseases, suggesting a link between complex X chromosome rearrangements and increased autoimmune risk.

In this study, researchers found that specific miRNAs may regulate cashmere fiber traits in goats by targeting genes related to hair follicle activities, with significant expression differences between breeds.

This review outlines the functional anatomy, pathology, and molecular mechanisms of androgenetic alopecia, emphasizing the need for multi-omics approaches to better understand this condition's biology.

This study suggests that post-finasteride syndrome and post-SSRI sexual dysfunction share potential etiopathogenetic mechanisms involving brain modulators, neurotransmitters, and gut microbiota, although more research is needed to understand these conditions fully.

Keratin-associated proteins are crucial for hair strength and structure.

This study found that mice with a mutation in the Zdhhc13 gene exhibited increased susceptibility to skin cancer, highlighting a potential protective role of palmitoyl acyltransferase in skin carcinogenesis.

In this study, researchers created a mutant mouse lacking the first cut repeat in the Cux/CDP protein, resulting in curly vibrissae and wavy hair, supporting the role of Cux/CDP's DNA binding domains in gene regulation during development.

This study found that stem cells derived from spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy patients exhibited reduced androgen receptor levels and HDAC6, providing potential insights into the disease mechanism for future therapies.

In this study, a novel mutation in the glucocorticoid receptor gene was identified in a young woman, impairing glucocorticoid signaling and leading to generalized glucocorticoid resistance.

This research reports that the polyG fragment within the Hoxc13 protein alters its gene regulatory functions, which could have influenced mammalian hair evolution by affecting pathways related to hair follicle development.

This study found that Ca²⁺ signaling and peptidylarginine deiminase enzymes play a crucial role in activating neural stem cells in response to injury in zebrafish, suggesting potential therapeutic targets for CNS injuries and cancer.

This study identified Lgr5 and Lgr6 as receptors expressed by small populations of stem cells in various adult organs, with Lgr5+ve cells forming long-lived organoids in certain mouse models.

In this study, Juvéderm repeat treatments maintained wrinkle correction in nasolabial folds for up to 21 months and required significantly less filler than the initial treatment, indicating potential benefits for patients.

This study reports the successful generation of inducible pluripotent stem cells from mesenchymal stem cells derived from human hair follicles, marking a novel method of reprogramming these cells.

This study found that early male hair loss treatment with Puregraft fat and low-dose adipose-derived regenerative cells increased terminal hair counts at 24 weeks compared to a saline control, indicating promise for androgenetic alopecia treatment.
