This article reviews the design and objectives of the Rotterdam Study, as well as summarizes major findings, without reporting new results.

Haplogroup X found in Altaian population supports Amerindian origin.

This study identified a nonsense mutation in the Sgkl gene as the cause of defective hair growth in a mutant mouse strain, implicating the SGKL signaling pathway in hair development.

This study identified hsa_circ_0001079 as a potential diagnostic marker for androgenetic alopecia, suggesting it may play a role in the condition by interacting with specific microRNAs.

This study found that polyamines enhance genome integrity by facilitating homologous recombination-mediated DNA repair, suggesting a novel role for polyamines beyond promoting cell growth and proliferation.

DNA can predict physical traits like eye and hair color accurately, especially in Europeans, but predicting other traits and in diverse populations needs more research.

This study found that individuals in this Egyptian cohort carrying the leucine (L) allele of the 5-α reductase type II enzyme had a higher risk of developing androgenetic alopecia, which may be associated with oxidative stress.

This study highlights the potential of ZDHHC17 methylation as a biomarker or therapeutic target in addressing skin aging, offering new insights into its molecular mechanisms.

In this study, the authors identified a role for hair follicles in regulating the formation and sympathetic innervation of arrector pili muscles, influencing hair follicle stem cell activity and potentially explaining hair loss associated with beta-blockers and androgenic alopecia.

This study found that mice with a specific loss of DNA methyltransferase 1 showed uneven epidermal thickness, reduced hair regeneration, and progressive alopecia, emphasizing DNA methylation's role in stem cell homeostasis.

This study found that androgen/androgen receptor signaling accelerates premature senescence in dermal papilla cells, highlighting a potential target for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that mutations in certain keratin genes significantly affect wool traits in Chinese Merino sheep, suggesting these genes could be important for sheep breeding to improve wool quality.

This study found that a novel R343H mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene impairs its transcription activity, contributing to hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets and alopecia in the affected family.

This study identified 71 SNPs linked to black wool traits in Qira sheep and found that specific mutations in the TYRP1 gene significantly correlate with coat color variations, providing insights for their genetic selection and conservation.

This study developed a quantitative method using SDS-PAGE and MALDI-TOF mass spectroscopy to accurately determine animal species from hair fibers, validated against standard samples and optical microscopy.

This study reported that, in a laboratory setting, araliadiol derived from Centella asiatica activated antioxidant pathways, mitigating urban particulate matter-induced oxidative stress and skin damage.

This study identified m6A-related genes, particularly IGF2BP3, as significantly up-regulated in keloid patients, potentially implicating them in the condition's molecular mechanisms and suggesting targets for therapy.

This review critically examines Forensic DNA Phenotyping, highlighting high accuracy in predicting certain traits but also legal and ethical challenges, particularly around regulatory fragmentation and issues of genetic privacy.
