In this study, transgenic mice expressing Msx-2 developed flaky skin with hyperproliferation and misalignment in epidermal cells, suggesting Msx-2 plays a role in skin and appendage growth control.

Ets2 gene is crucial for placental development in mice.

This case report documents the second known instance of a salivary gland choristoma on the chest wall of a newborn, highlighting its benign nature and the importance of accurate diagnosis.

This report describes a rare case of a three-day-old male with ichthyosis hystrix type of epidermal nevus, featuring specific skin and hair symptoms but no nail or skeletal abnormalities.

This study suggests that exogenous retinoic acid can alter the morphogenesis pathway of developing skin appendages when applied during the placodal stage, leading to changes like feather formation in atypical regions of chick embryos.

This case report details the first pediatric occurrence of naevus trichilemmocysticus, a newly defined type of organoid naevus.

This case study presents a 9-month-old male infant with symptoms suggesting a likely diagnosis of Hay–Wells syndrome, including severe scalp crusting, nail abnormalities, and partial syndactyly.

In this report, a 1-year-old boy with congenital atrichia with papular lesions was found to have a complete absence of scalp and body hair and keratin-filled cysts due to a mutation in the hairless gene.

This manuscript describes two case reports of preterm newborns with a rare homozygous mutation in the epidermal growth factor receptor, leading to severe health issues and early mortality despite supportive care.

An infant with complete hair loss was diagnosed with a genetic disorder affecting hair growth.

This case report describes a five-year-old boy diagnosed with nevus comedonicus syndrome, a rare skin condition, characterized by asymptomatic skin lesions and a congenital cataract of the right eye, without inflammation or typical signs of related conditions.

In this study, forced expression of the transcription factor cDermo-1 in chicken dermis led to the formation of ectopic feather buds and enhanced feather growth, demonstrating its role in initiating skin appendage development.

This report describes a case of isolated congenital atrichia combined with nevus flammeus.

This study evaluated 386 patients with inborn errors of immunity and found that over half exhibited cutaneous, ocular, or hair manifestations, with bacterial skin infections and eczema being particularly prevalent. These findings may aid early diagnosis, especially in pediatric cases.

This study found that activating the erbB-2 oncogene in transgenic mice led to severe skin abnormalities and fatal defects, indicating erbB-2's significant role in skin and hair follicle development.

This study found a novel PAX9 gene mutation that may cause tooth agenesis and trichodysplasia in a studied family.

In this study, researchers engineered ventral skin organoids (vSkOs) with specific cellular compositions and signaling environments to generate human amnion-like tissues called Amnioids, offering new tools for studying human development and potential regenerative therapies.

This case report describes a unique lesion in a 10-month-old girl, characterized by increased eccrine glands and hair follicles, leading to the proposed term "hybrid eccrine gland and hair follicle hamartoma".

This case report describes a patient with trichothiodystrophy presenting with autism, mental retardation, and seizures, characterized by distinct hair abnormalities under microscopy.

This article discusses various types of epidermal nevi and associated syndromes but presents no new research findings.

This case report highlights a 21-year-old man with severe nodulocystic acne resistant to conventional treatments, who showed moderate improvement with isotretinoin, and discusses its potential link to congenital digital abnormalities and Apert syndrome.

This study describes five patients with porokeratotic adnexal ostial nevus, a rare skin disorder, highlighting its clinical features and proposing a new encompassing term for related conditions.

This study demonstrated that hiPSC-derived hair-bearing skin organoids lacked sufficient type VII collagen at the epidermal-dermal junction, indicating a need for further maturation to model certain forms of epidermolysis bullosa effectively.

This review outlines a diagnostic framework for clinicians to distinguish different types of inherited ichthyoses and suggests further testing and treatment strategies, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that activation of a mother's immune system during early pregnancy in mice led to transient alopecia in their offspring, highlighting a link between epidermal and dermal histogenesis disorders and alopecia.

This article presents a case of an 8-year-old boy with Recklinghausen's disease showing features such as café-au-lait spots, alopecia, and developmental anomalies, but reports no new findings beyond observation.

This review discusses the skin and systemic conditions associated with Down syndrome and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for awareness of these manifestations in diagnosis.

In this study, the misshaped and hairy ear phenotype in mutant mice was linked to mis-expression of certain Hoxc genes due to a chromosomal inversion.

This case report describes a unique instance of an otherwise healthy infant with phylloid terminal hair nevus, a form of hypomelanosis without extracutaneous abnormalities.
