This study found that Cutl1 mutant mice experienced retarded lung differentiation and abnormal hair follicle morphogenesis, indicating the vital role of CDP in lung development and hair follicle cell-lineage specification.

This study concluded that the frizzy mutation in mice is linked to a T to A transversion in Prss8 and is orthologous to the 'hairless' mutation in rats.

This study found that the PP2A-B55α regulatory subunit is crucial for ectodermal development in mice, with knockout embryos displaying severe neural and epidermal defects and failing to survive to birth.

This case report presents a rare subtype of hypomyelinating leukodystrophy linked to a PYCR2 gene mutation, emphasizing exome sequencing's value in diagnosing undiagnosed childhood HLDs with atypical symptoms.

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 found that the HoxC gene cluster is crucial for the development of hair and nails in mice, with key regulation by two mammalian-specific enhancers.

This study found that Sox2 within dermal papilla cells in the hair follicle regulates hair pigmentation, influencing the type and production of melanin.

This study identified histologic lesions and a defect in adhesion molecules causing hair loss in mice with the bal mutation, linked to a mutation in the desmoglein 3 gene.

This study developed a novel method to analyze the effects of COL7A1 mutations using mRNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells, aiding genetic diagnosis and potential therapies for dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.

The ZIP13 variant is linked to abnormal hair quality.

This study found that specific Y-chromosome alleles may influence susceptibility to prostate cancer in Iraqi males, suggesting their potential use in screening for the disease.

The study found that dermal EZH2 plays a crucial role in coordinating dermal fibroblast differentiation and epidermal development by modulating Wnt/β-catenin and retinoic acid signaling.

This case report identifies a novel LIPH gene mutation linked to autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis in a Japanese boy, expanding the spectrum of known mutations associated with this condition.

This study developed molecular signatures for dermal papilla cells and their niche, uncovering novel signaling regulators and genes linked to hair disorders, which may inform future hair development research.

This review provides an overview of the hairless gene in mice and humans, discussing its structure, expression, and implications for understanding skin physiology and human disorders related to gene disruption, but it reports no new empirical findings.

This study found that overexpression and knockdown of DKK4 influence genes involved in hair follicle growth and development in Angora rabbits and identified specific SNPs in DKK4 associated with wool quality, notably showing that the TT/GG haplotype combination relates to higher fibre diameters.

This study identified heterozygous mutations in the ABCC9 gene as the genetic basis of Cantú syndrome, suggesting the syndrome as a new member of potassium channelopathies.

This study reported that genetic testing is crucial for accurately diagnosing hypotrichosis, especially in cases with subtle symptoms or coexisting severe atopic dermatitis, as demonstrated in a young girl with a DSG4 gene mutation.

This study found that the transcription factor Trps1 acts as a novel regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway and early hair follicle progenitors in developing vibrissa follicles in mice.

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

This study found that the distribution of desmogleins is associated with specific types of keratinization and hair anchorage, as well as hypotrichosis.

CRISPR/Cas9 and prime editing can potentially fix skin disorder genes safely and effectively.

This study found that autophagy is impaired in Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome-associated renal tumors and identified that the FLCN protein interacts with key autophagy components regulated by ULK1.

This study found that Hex gene expression patterns in chick embryo dorsal skin during feather bud development suggest a significant role in initiating feather morphogenesis.

This study found that disrupting the inturned gene in developing mouse epidermis halted hair follicle formation due to impaired keratinocyte differentiation, highlighting primary cilia's role in tissue-specific planar cell polarity signaling.
