This study identified a novel missense mutation in the hairless gene in a Polish family, which may contribute to congenital atrichia with papular lesions by affecting the gene's function.

This study found that K15 is variably expressed in sheep and mouse hair follicles, with specific patterns suggesting a role in the early stages of keratinocyte differentiation.

This study identified a mutation in the keratin 71 gene that causes curly hair in certain rats, advancing our understanding of hair formation.

This review discusses the variety of skin disorders associated with atopic dermatitis, exploring their complex relationships and shared genetic and environmental factors, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that somatic mosaic mutations in the doublecortin gene may cause subcortical band heterotopia in male patients, and molecular analysis using hair roots is a useful detection method.

This study found an association between a splice site variant in the KRT71 gene and curly hair in Selkirk Rex cats, identifying a significant locus on chromosome B4.

This study confirmed linkage of Clouston syndrome in a large Indian family to the 13q11-12.1 region, suggesting it shares a genetic basis with French Canadian cases.

This study describes a patient with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets (HVDRR) who, despite having a truncated vitamin D receptor, did not exhibit typical hair or skin abnormalities, suggesting possible compensation via interactions with other proteins.

This study identified a nonsense mutation in the zinc-finger domain of the hairless gene associated with congenital atrichia in a Japanese family, indicating a potential genetic cause for this rare form of alopecia.

This study identified a novel nonsense mutation in the VDR gene in two patients with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets and alopecia, leading to resistance to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3.

This study identified a distinct gene near the hairless locus on chromosome 8p that is responsible for hereditary Marie Unna type hypotrichosis in a German family.

In this study, researchers identified a cluster of hair-specific keratin-associated protein genes within the 21q22.3 region, revealing a novel transcription mechanism involving TSPEAR/C21orf29 that may bypass typical transcriptional termination sites.

This study identified a mutation in the steroid-binding domain of the androgen receptor gene associated with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, impairing male sexual development due to altered androgen receptor protein function.

This study found that a newly identified gene, mK17n, may explain the lack of nail issues in mK17 null mice by compensating for mK17's function in the nail bed.

This study found that the HS III element in the K14 gene's regulatory sequence promotes gene expression in inner root sheath keratinocytes, highlighting cooperative interactions in keratinocyte-specific gene regulation.

This study identified novel mutations in the DSG4 gene in a Japanese patient with monilethrix, affecting protein interactions that may disrupt hair shaft structure.

This study identified four novel and one recurrent mutation in the AIRE gene among Arab families with APS1, suggesting these contribute to the disorder.

In this study, specific SNPs in the FST gene were significantly associated with various wool quality traits in Chinese Merino sheep, suggesting potential markers for breeding programs.

This study outlines the Human Gene Correlation Analysis tool, which classifies human genes by coexpression levels and identifies overrepresented annotation terms in correlated gene groups, with no new clinical results reported.

This study found evidence of increased DNA methylation of the androgen receptor gene in occipital hair follicles from men with androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, no association was found between the AR gene and type II androgenetic alopecia in Egyptian women, suggesting it is not a useful biomarker for predisposition.

This study found that mice with a mutation in the Zdhhc13 gene exhibited increased susceptibility to skin cancer, highlighting a potential protective role of palmitoyl acyltransferase in skin carcinogenesis.

In this study, heavy nighttime physical exercise delayed the circadian phase of clock gene expression by 2 to 4 hours in a professional fighter, suggesting potential implications for managing circadian disorders.

This study identified a novel human type I hair keratin, hHa3-II, as an isoform of a previously described hHa3 keratin, with distinct sequence differences indicating separate gene encoding.

In this study, researchers observed that mice with the naked gene showed frequent absence of hair cuticle and cortical cells during follicle growth, with abnormal keratin deposition also noted.

This study identified a compound heterozygous mutation in a hairless rhesus macaque, which was associated with skin abnormalities similar to those in hairless mice and humans with APL.

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.
