This study found that the Plcd3(mNab) mutation in mice worsens the alopecia caused by Plcd1 loss, suggesting synergistic effects between Plcd1 and Plcd3 on hair follicle health.

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

This study found a novel R430Q gene mutation in hHb6, which may be linked to the hereditary hair disorder monilethrix in the examined family.

This study found that desmosomal cadherin desmoglein 3 loses its rigidity upon Ca2+ removal, regardless of desmosome functional state, suggesting a central role for signaling in hyper-adhesion.

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 discovered that calcium dependent protein kinase 1 (CPK1) directly activates cyclic nucleotide-gated channels 5, 6, and 9, promoting root hair growth in Arabidopsis by regulating Ca²⁺ signaling.

This study identifies a new mutation in the Scd1 gene in a strain of Kunming mice, causing skin and hair defects with the mildest impact among similar mutations.

In this case report, a newborn with Conradi-Hünermann-Happle syndrome was diagnosed through early skin biopsy, which revealed unique histopathological features, including dystrophic calcifications, confirming a pathogenic variant in the EBP gene.

This study found that ZDHHC13 deficiency in mice is associated with abnormal liver function, lipid metabolism issues, and impaired mitochondrial function, highlighting ZDHHC13's regulatory role in liver metabolism.

This study reports that gastrointestinal problems, such as intractable diarrhea and enterocolitis, can dominate the clinical course of patients with Hoyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome and may occur before hematological and immunological symptoms.

hHb1, hHb3, and hHb6 mRNAs start expressing at the same time in hair follicles.

This study demonstrates that the trichohyalin gene is located at chromosomal region 1q21, where several other genes related to epidermal differentiation also map.

This study identified ABCB6 as the first gene linked to dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria (DUH) in a large Chinese family, suggesting it plays a role in skin pigmentation.

This study identified a 195 bp duplication in crested chickens that causes large crest feathers and can be associated with cerebral hernia in some breeds, but not all.

This study found that Rab5c is crucial for proper HSPC development in zebrafish embryos by regulating Notch and AKT signaling through endocytic trafficking, with both deficiency and overactivation leading to production defects.

This study reports the discovery of mutations in the PADI3, TGM3, and TCHH genes as molecular genetic causes of uncombable hair syndrome in children, indicating an autosomal-recessive inheritance pattern.

This study identifies two new proteins, CCDC22 and CCDC93, essential for root and root hair growth in Arabidopsis, and demonstrates their genetic link to a VTI13-dependent vacuolar trafficking pathway.

This study provides definitive evidence that a homozygous mutation in the DSC3 gene causes skin fragility and hypotrichosis in humans.

This study found that the HS III element in the K14 gene's regulatory sequence promotes gene expression in inner root sheath keratinocytes, highlighting cooperative interactions in keratinocyte-specific gene regulation.

This study found that CD133-positive dermal papilla cells significantly enhanced hair growth in mice compared to CD133-negative cells, suggesting their potential for improving human hair follicle engineering.

This study identified the Arabidopsis cation chloride cotransporter CCC1 as essential for regulating pH and function in the trans-Golgi network/early endosome, with its absence causing significant growth and stress response defects.

This study found that the Gsdma3 gene is necessary for normal hair follicle differentiation in mice, with its mutation leading to progressive hair loss and defects in hair structure.

This study found that certain CYP21A2 mutations significantly reduce enzyme activity, contributing to non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia phenotypes, which may aid in enhancing diagnosis and treatment strategies.

This study identifies mutations in the SRD5A3 gene as a cause of a new type of congenital disorder of glycosylation, impacting mental, ophthalmologic, and cerebellar functions.

This study found that the Arabidopsis cation chloride cotransporter CCC1 is critical for regulating pH in the trans-Golgi network/early endosome, impacting plant growth and stress response.

This study found that targeting CISD1 with the compound NL-1 reduced mitochondrial dysfunction and reactive oxygen species accumulation, protecting against cisplatin-induced hearing loss in cell models and mice, without affecting cisplatin's cancer-fighting effectiveness.

In liver cancer cells, this study found that upregulating hsa_circ_0002980 inhibits cell proliferation, metastasis, and EMT by modulating the miR-1303/CADM2 axis, suggesting it as a potential therapeutic target.

A specific gene mutation is linked to a hereditary form of dystonia that responds well to certain medications.

This article reviews the genetic mutations associated with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the roles of EDA gene isoforms and related receptors.
