This study identified a 14,883 bp genomic deletion affecting the Plcd1 and Vill genes as likely responsible for the abnormal phenotype observed in snthr-1Bao mice.

In this study, forced expression of the transcription factor cDermo-1 in chicken dermis led to the formation of ectopic feather buds and enhanced feather growth, demonstrating its role in initiating skin appendage development.

This study identifies Armadillo Repeat Only proteins as crucial regulators of plant CNGC channels, influencing various plant functions and showcasing a unique plant-specific role in Ca2+ signaling.

This study in mutant mice found that Bmpr2 and Acvr2a are individually redundant, but together essential for normal hair follicle development, with their reduction causing rapid hair cycling and graying.

This case report identified a 6-month-old girl with congenital generalized hypertrichosis and gingival hyperplasia, where a de novo CNV on chromosome 17q24.2-24.3 was associated with reduced expression of ABCA5 and SOX9.

This study found that the mutant hairless rhino bald protein in mice interacts with the vitamin D receptor but cannot repress its transactivation and shows abnormal cellular localization.

This study found that the absence of Ctip2 in epidermal keratinocytes led to impaired wound healing in mice, affecting cell migration, proliferation, and hair follicle stem cell maintenance.

In this study, two unique mutations in the RBPJ gene were identified and linked to Adams-Oliver syndrome, confirming impaired DNA binding of mutated RBPJ as a factor in this rare genetic disorder.

This study identified specific germline and somatic mutations in the Phospholipase C Delta 1 gene as high-risk factors for developing hereditary trichilemmal cysts, involving a monoallelic two-hit mechanism.

This study found that the rs3185480 polymorphism in the APCDD1 gene was associated with an elevated risk of developing androgenic alopecia and reduced protein levels, potentially due to altered codon usage affecting translation efficiency.

This study found that overexpression of the CUX1 protein promotes proliferation of Hu sheep dermal papilla cells and affects key genes in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This study found that CD1d is strongly expressed in human scalp skin and hair follicles, particularly in the anagen phase, suggesting a role in scalp immunology and potential implications for hair disorder treatment.

This study found that in a transgenic mouse model, a modified form of β-catenin inhibited normal hair follicle development and promoted epidermal cyst formation, revealing distinct effects on Wnt signaling.

This study used Cisd2 knockout mice models and found that these mice display premature aging characteristics and an increase in dysfunctional neutrophils, suggesting Cisd2's role in calcium homeostasis and neutrophil function via interactions with Calnexin and SERCA.

In a neonatal rat model, this study found that topical CDK2 inhibitors reduced chemotherapy-induced hair loss in 33 to 50% of the animals, suggesting a potential strategy for preventing alopecia in cancer patients.

This study constructed a hair follicle-specific expression vector for IGFBP-5 in Inner Mongolia Cashmere goat cells, allowing for future functional genetic analyses and potential use in nuclear transfer.

This study concluded that allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR) is more reliable than tetra-primer ARMS-PCR for genotyping the SNP rs1998076 due to better stability and interpretability.

This study identified a high-risk allele in the PLCD1 gene associated with hereditary trichilemmal cyst formation, proposing a monoallelic two-hit mechanism as the underlying genetic pathogenesis.

This case report describes a novel mutation in the CDH3 gene in an 11-year-old Iranian boy with sparse scalp hair and macular dystrophy, leading to altered P-cadherin synthesis.

This study identified a 582-bp deletion upstream of LHX2 in cashmere goats, likely linked to hair follicle development and cashmere production, providing insights into genetic factors in cashmere trait selection.

This study found that RSPO1, a Wnt/β-catenin pathway agonist, significantly induces insulin-producing β cell replication and neogenesis in various settings, offering a promising potential therapy for diabetes.

This study suggests that alkaline phosphatase-regulated expression of CCL5 contributes to the trichogenicity of human dermal papilla spheres.

This study found that forming inclusion complexes of DPCP with HPβCD using the 3D ground mixture method enhances its anti-inflammatory activity at lower doses compared to complexes with β-CD.

Complex basal cell carcinomas need personalized treatment due to unique genetic mutations.

This phase I study reported that ETC-159, targeting Wnt signalling, showed tolerable safety profiles at doses that inhibit its pathway, though bone turnover markers increased, warranting early and regular monitoring. No tumor responses were observed, but two patients achieved stable disease for several cycles.

This study reports that the DMI3 gene, essential for nodule formation in legume-rhizobial symbiosis, encodes a calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, highlighting its role in multiple plant symbioses.

This study found that the protein Formin 2 helps regulate cell-to-cell transport in thale cress by stabilizing actin filaments at plasmodesmata, with its absence leading to increased permeability and vulnerability to viral infections.

This study suggests that folliculin, mutated in Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome, and its partner FNIP1 may play a role in energy and nutrient sensing through the AMPK and mTOR pathways.

This study suggests that inactivation of β-catenin is necessary for chick retina regeneration, as it allows cells to enter the cell cycle during injury and promotes regeneration without needing FGF2.
