In this case-control study, researchers did not find genome-wide significant genetic variants for trichotillomania, but cases had higher polygenic risk for psychiatric disorders and certain neuropsychiatric-associated copy number variants.

This study found that Dermal Fibroblast Progenitors have repressed chromatin profiles which hinder their ability to reform skin in allograft assays despite their differentiation potential.

This study examined wool traits in Angora rabbits using low-coverage whole genome sequencing, identifying six QTLs and a gene, FGF10, linked to fiber growth and diameter, suggesting a cost-effective approach for complex trait analysis in genomic breeding.

In this study, researchers found significant links between specific metabolic reprogramming-related genes and alopecia areata risk, highlighting increased SQSTM1 expression in affected hair follicles compared to healthy ones.

In this study, TENS of the T6 dermatome over a longer term was explored for its effects on weight, blood pressure, heart rate, and appetite-regulating hormones in obese subjects with moderate obstructive sleep apnea; however, results are not reported in the abstract.

This study reported that Sintilimab combined with chemotherapy may improve outcomes in advanced NSCLC patients but carries a higher risk of certain side effects, including hypothyroidism.

In this study, the researchers found that deleting ceramide synthase 4 in the skin's epidermis alters stem cell differentiation, disrupting hair follicle structure and barrier function, potentially leading to immune responses similar to atopic dermatitis.

This study identified 21 candidate genes linked to immunoglobulin levels in colostrum and serum of dairy cattle, suggesting potential for genetic selection to enhance immunity.
