This study explored the molecular communication between hair matrix cells and dermal papilla cells in cashmere goats, revealing key ligand-receptor pairs and signaling pathways that facilitate intercellular crosstalk and potentially influence hair growth mechanisms.

This study investigated genetic and phenotypic characteristics of androgen insensitivity syndrome in individuals with a 46,XY karyotype, documenting a range from complete to partial insensitivity.

This review examines the evolution of human skin pigmentation and its genetic basis, suggesting that variations might be due to a few interacting gene pairs, and reports no new research findings.

This study investigated the roles of long non-coding RNAs in mouse hair follicle stem cells, using sequencing to identify potential biomarkers and targets for treatments in both mice and humans.

This study reported that during wheat polyploidization, decreased DNA methylation and specific hypomethylated promoters were associated with altered gene transcription, contributing to root hair elongation and improved nitrate uptake, highlighting the role of epigenetic regulation in enhancing crop traits.

This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to map the cellular composition of sheep hair follicles, revealing differentiation pathways and potential molecular mechanisms for wool curvature, which may inform sheep breeding.

This article reviews genetic and phenotypic aspects of androgen insensitivity syndromes, emphasizing the diversity of mutations that complicates molecular screening and the importance of genotype-phenotype correlations.

This study discovered nine human type I hair keratin genes, including a transcribed pseudogene, in a 190 kbp genomic region, revealing three gene subclusters based on sequence homologies.

This study found that a 671-base pair promoter sequence from the ultra-high-sulfur keratin gene is sufficient to direct tissue-specific and development-specific expression of a reporter gene during hair growth in transgenic mice.

This study cataloged human type II hair keratins, detailing their expression and differentiation roles in hair follicles and comparing them with type I keratins to explore keratin-pairing principles.

In this study, sequences upstream of the TGM3 gene were found to regulate epithelial-specific gene expression in keratinocytes, suggesting potential applications in gene therapy.

This study found that regulatory sequences crucial for inducing K6a expression in response to epidermal injury are located in specific upstream regions of the K6a gene in transgenic mice.

This study identified a cluster of genes on chromosome 17 related to hair keratin-associated proteins, including 37 genes forming seven multigene families, localized in the hair shaft's upper cortex.

This case report identified two new SLC39A4 mutations in twin patients with acrodermatitis enteropathica, suggesting that different mutations in this gene may lead to varying clinical manifestations of the disorder.

This study identified that the ND1 gene sequence of the Asian black bear's Sichuan subspecies shares high similarity with those of other bear species, raccoons, and Ailurus fulgens.

This study reported that the PTGER2 gene is strongly expressed in cashmere goat skin and its expression tends to decrease from the anagen to telogen stages of the hair follicle cycle.

This review examines genetic variation in the ovine KRTAP1.1 gene and its potential impact on wool quality, reporting no new findings but suggesting opportunities for developing gene markers for wool and pelt traits.

Male pattern baldness is largely genetic, linked to the androgen receptor gene, and may relate to certain health issues.

In this study, researchers analyzed skin samples from Dorper sheep to identify 395 differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) linked to hair follicle growth phases, suggesting these lncRNAs may play a role in the regulation of hair shedding through pathways like estrogen and PI3K-Akt signaling.

In this study, researchers used high-throughput sequencing to explore lncRNA interactions in cashmere goat hair follicles during embryonic development, finding lncRNAs potentially regulate genes in the Wnt and PI3K-Akt pathways related to hair follicle growth.
