In this study, gene expression changes in rat whisker follicles after methamphetamine administration may serve as indicators of the drug's rewarding effects and potential addiction pathways.

In this study, researchers found that heterozygous carriers of a mutation in the hairless gene showed no difference in the pattern of androgenetic alopecia compared to unaffected individuals.

This case report describes a 33-year-old Kashmiri woman with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome who has a rare DCAF17 gene mutation, c.321+1G>A, providing further evidence for its role in the genetic basis of this neuroendocrine disorder.

In this study, researchers identified a recurrent MBTPS2 splice-site variant as a mutational hotspot in IFAP syndrome across diverse families, with phenotype severity suggesting the influence of additional modifiers.

In a case report, this study identified a new genetic variant in a six-year-old girl from Saudi Arabia with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy, expanding the understanding of the genetic spectrum of this rare condition in the region.

This study identified pathogenic or likely pathogenic gene variants in 70.1% of Russian families affected by hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, expanding knowledge of causative mutations.

In this study, prenatal ultrasonography was found to be a valuable tool for screening ectodermal dysplasia during pregnancy, and a new EDA gene variant associated with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia was identified, aiding in more accurate diagnoses and reproductive decision-making.

In this study, researchers identified six novel prognostic biomarkers for bladder cancer and developed a predictive model that effectively stratifies patients into high-risk and low-risk groups based on immune cell infiltration differences and gene expression.

This review identifies and discusses various endocrine-related causes of hypertension in children and adolescents, emphasizing the role of genetic predispositions and highlighting the need for systematic diagnostic guidelines and genetic sequencing referrals to improve diagnosis and treatment strategies.

This review describes the genetic and phenotypic diversity of Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, highlighting new DCAF17 gene variants and their varying clinical implications.

This study presents a rare instance of Netherton syndrome diagnosed incidentally in siblings of consanguineous parents, initially misdiagnosed as other skin conditions, emphasizing the need for careful evaluation in chronic skin cases to prevent misdiagnosis.

In this case report, a novel heterozygous mutation in the insulin receptor gene was identified in an adolescent girl with type A insulin resistance syndrome, characterized by excessive hair growth and skin changes, and her mother.

This case study reported a neonate of Indian descent with localized hypotrichosis type 1 due to a likely pathogenic deletion in the DSG4 gene, marking the first such case from India.

This research found that the microtubule catastrophe factor KIF18B plays a crucial role in promoting spindle orientation in keratinocytes, linking this process to cell fate decisions during hair follicle morphogenesis.

This review investigates the relationship between certain gene polymorphisms associated with obesity (FTO and MC4R) and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, reporting no new results but suggesting a potential genetic link.
