This study identified a mutation hotspot in the caracul (Ca) locus of mice, implicating the mK6irs1/Krt2-6g gene in hair formation and potentially human hair and skin diseases.

This study demonstrated that AtVLN4 plays a role in root hair growth by regulating actin organization in a calcium-dependent manner.

This study found that calcitonin‐gene‐related peptide immunoreactive sensory axons in rats are predominantly involved in tissue maintenance rather than nociceptive functions.

This study isolated and sequenced the complete gene rKAP4L1, which encodes a cysteine-rich hair keratin-associated protein in rabbit hair follicles.

This study found that KSR1 is essential for v-Ha-ras-mediated skin tumor formation in mice but not for MT-driven mammary tumor genesis, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target in Ras/MAPK signaling.

This study found that a highly resistant structure, located at the interface between the cuticle and cortex of human hair, acts as a penetration barrier, which the authors propose to name the "cuticle anchored resistant base" or CARB.

This case report highlights that CCCA can present with multifocal patchy hair loss in younger men of African descent, suggesting the need for careful evaluation when diagnosing atypical alopecia patterns.

This study used cryo-electron microscopy to reveal the structural mechanisms by which TRPV6 and TRPV3 ion channels open, close, and are regulated, providing insights for potential future research.

Hair shaft changes may be linked to CCCA, but their role is unclear.

This study found that RXRα plays a critical role in hair cycling and keratinocyte functions in mice, likely through its interaction with VDR in epidermal cells.

This review examines the patent literature on AKR1C3 inhibitors and suggests that although numerous potent inhibitors exist, further preclinical optimization is necessary before assessing their therapeutic potential in human diseases.

This study found that PRC1 plays crucial roles in skin epithelial stem cell regulation, with catalytic and non-catalytic functions impacting epidermal integrity, hair development, and Merkel cell dynamics in murine models.

This review highlights REV7's crucial roles in maintaining genome stability, its implication in several cancers, and its association with poor prognoses and treatment resistance, while also noting that REV7 suppression may improve chemotherapy sensitivity.

This study found that RAR-gamma 1 mRNA is present in multiple skin layers and structures, suggesting a role in maintaining and differentiating normal epidermis and skin appendages.

This study observed that in live rodents, actin filaments adjust their structure to facilitate membrane transfer between cellular compartments; linear filaments stabilize fused membranes, while branched filaments, connected by the protein Ezrin, drive integration, demonstrating actin's role in adapting to membrane biophysical changes.

This review provides an in-depth analysis of the structure and function of c-kit activation, and its role in both normal physiological and pathological conditions, with no new research findings reported.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, including its various forms and potential multifactorial causes, but provides no new clinical findings.

This study found that carbonic anhydrase II was significantly upregulated in human keratinocytes when treated with toll-like receptor 3 agonist and Th2 cytokines, suggesting its potential role in inflammatory skin conditions.

This study suggests that hair loss disorders like Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis may result from mutations that disrupt post-transcriptional regulation of HR protein expression by PCPB2 interacting with Hr mRNA.

TEDAR is crucial for skin cell differentiation and barrier formation.

This study found that digital droplet PCR (ddPCR) outperformed qPCR in detecting replication competent lentivirus in CAR-T products by offering better sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility, making it a reliable and rapid method for ensuring patient safety.

This study provides insight into AR-mediated gene activation and the molecular mechanisms of prostate cancer progression and drug resistance, identifying potential avenues for developing new therapies.

This study suggests that the ANE syndrome mutation in yeast Nop4, analogous to human RBM28, disrupts protein folding and protein-protein interactions, contributing to ribosomal dysfunction.

This review examines PAK4 signaling pathways in prostate cancer, Parkinson's disease, and melanogenesis, focusing on the potential role of the PAK4-CREB axis, without reporting new clinical results.

This study developed an improved reference genome for the African spiny mouse using long Nanopore sequencing reads, potentially aiding future research into the species' remarkable tissue regeneration capabilities.

This study presents the first report on cloning and characterizing the full-length cDNA of SRD5A1 in Indian catfish (Clarias magur), revealing expression differences across reproductive phases and increased expression post-Ovatide administration in ovaries and testis.

In this study, socially defeated mice showed increased alcohol consumption, and CRF-R1 antagonism selectively reduced drinking in these mice, suggesting a potential treatment target for stress-related alcohol use disorders.

This study showed that the stress hormone CRF inhibits hair growth and induces hair loss by affecting both the proliferation of human dermal papilla cells and hair follicle function.
