This article reviews keratosis follicularis squamosa, a keratinizing disorder predominantly found in the Japanese population, but reports no new clinical results.

The gene for Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis is located on chromosome 8p21, near the hairless gene.

This study identified new genetic variants on chromosome 20p11 associated with male pattern baldness.

This in vitro study found sex chromosome differences affect steroidogenic enzyme activity and androgen receptor expression in human skeletal muscle cells, showing varied responses to testosterone exposure between 46XY and 46XX cells.

This article reviews molecular and genetic mechanisms in the development of androgenic alopecia and examines the relationship between androgen receptor gene polymorphism and androgen-dependent diseases, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, the authors reported that certain SNPs on chromosome 20 were associated with androgenetic alopecia in the ethnic Han population of Yunnan, with specific alleles linked to higher likelihood of developing the condition.

This study found that among the two highly homologous K16 genes on chromosome 17, only one produced a functional protein due to stronger promoter activity.

In this study, researchers generated a mouse mutation called scraggly, related to hair and skin defects, and mapped it to a genetic location on mouse Chromosome 19 distinct from similar mutations.

This case study reports a rare instance of RC11 associated with precocious puberty, severe hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes, suggesting a possible link to 11q-syndrome.

This review highlights the potential for using the Y chromosome in epigenetic analyses to better understand male-specific aging and disease mechanisms.

This commentary highlights that the loss of the Y chromosome may disrupt UTY/TLE1-RUNX1 interactions, potentially impacting male hematopoietic cell development and leading to conditions like acute myeloid leukemia and T-cell acute lymphoblast leukemia.

This article discusses the impact of the tabby mutation on secondary vibrissae and hair follicle patterns in mice and reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that basonuclin may act as a tissue-specific transcription factor for ribosomal RNA genes by interacting with the promoter region necessary for high transcription levels in human keratinocytes.

This study identified a new genetic locus, ahl4, on distal Chromosome 10 that contributes to the early-onset, severe hearing loss in A/J mice compared to B6 mice.

This literature review highlights the importance of understanding the mechanisms behind the gradual mosaic loss of the Y chromosome (mLOY) in men, its association with various health conditions like cardiovascular diseases and cancer, and its potential as a marker for age inference.

This review discusses how sex-limited chromosomes can affect non-reproductive traits in various sex determination systems and reports no new empirical results.

This review discusses sex differences in immune responses and highlights mechanisms involving sex hormones, X-linked genes, and X-Chromosome Inactivation, but reports no new clinical findings.

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 an improved reference genome for the African spiny mouse, which may aid in understanding its tissue regeneration at the molecular level.

This study found an association between 'short' CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene and increased non-random X chromosome inactivation in women with androgenic alopecia.

This study reports that two mouse models of scarring alopecia exhibit similar patterns of hair loss progression despite histological differences in inflammatory cell localization and MHC class I expression.

Anticonvulsant drugs may cause temporary chromosomal abnormalities.

This study identifies six novel keratin genes from the chromosome 17q21.2 region, suggesting their association with hair follicles, while all 27 keratin genes in the domain have been characterized transcriptionally.

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 provides evidence supporting a regulatory relationship between the transcriptional regulator Hoxc13 and Krtap16 genes, which are crucial for proper hair growth in mice.

Type I keratin genes are closely linked to the rex locus on mouse chromosome 11, affecting hair development.

In this study, two novel clusters of keratin-associated protein genes on human chromosome 11 were analyzed, suggesting their products are crucial for hair formation due to preferential expression in hair roots.

This study identified nine novel KRTAP5 family genes associated with human hair formation, demonstrating preferential expression in hair roots and suggesting their role in hair development.
