This study found that Staphylococcus aureus delays wound healing by utilizing quorum sensing to impair lipid metabolism in keratinocytes, an effect not observed with commensal Staphylococcus, highlighting the impact of agr-dependent virulence factors in this process.

This study found that zebrafish with a mutation in the GDP-fucose biosynthesis gene exhibited enhanced and faster regeneration of mechanosensory hair cells, implicating the importance of this gene and Notch signalling regulation in hair cell regeneration mechanisms.

In this study, researchers found that a specific genetic variant in the INSR gene is linked to severe insulin resistance and hyperandrogenemia in type A insulin resistance syndrome, suggesting the benefit of exon sequencing for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

This study suggests a potential genetic component in CFA among Ridgeback dogs, but MLPH genotyping did not identify the MLPH gene as a contributing factor.

This study described an Appenzeller Mountain Dog with clinical signs of an NSDHL defect, discovering a large heterozygous de novo deletion spanning the entire NSDHL gene through whole genome sequencing.

This study found no significant difference in CUX1 core promoter methylation levels between different lambskin patterns in Hu sheep, suggesting other mechanisms influence CUX1 expression related to hair follicle development.

In this study, researchers found that most patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia lacked the protective rs1800440 polymorphism in the CYP1B1 gene, suggesting its potential role in the development of this condition, while a significant number carried the rs9258883 polymorphism in HLA-B*07:02.

This study discovered that lambs with coarse, ancestral-like wool in a population of modern fine wool sheep exhibited overexpression of the SOSTDC1 gene, linked to epigenetic changes, which helps understand the development and diversification of wool types in sheep breeding.

This study found that the Msx2 gene may regulate goose feather follicle development by influencing cell viability and gene expression, with potential implications for improving down production.

This study identified a novel mutation and confirmed a previous mutation in the LIPH gene in a woman with autosomal recessive woolly hair, expanding the mutation spectrum for this condition.

This study found that DEFB1 polymorphisms, specifically the rs1800972 CG and GG genotypes, may predict susceptibility to and severity of alopecia areata.

In this study, researchers detected all three genotypes associated with the MLPH gene's R199H polymorphism in a population of Czech pointer dogs, which is linked to coat color dilution.

In this study, researchers performed a genome-wide characterization of the Wnt gene family in domestic donkeys, identifying 19 genes and highlighting their evolutionary conservation among mammals, along with tissue-specific expression patterns potentially linked to reproductive regulation and tissue homeostasis.

This study found that nestin-expressing hair follicle-derived cells express higher levels of certain neurotrophic factors and neural markers, indicating potential for neuroregenerative therapy applications.

In this study, genetic factors associated with hirsutism were identified, suggesting that both androgen-dependent and independent mechanisms may contribute to excessive hair growth in women.

This study found that mice exposed to low humidity showed altered epidermal gene expression, which was modulated by topical emollient application; this suggests emollients may help manage dry skin in low-humidity environments by affecting specific gene pathways.

This study revealed that heterozygous mice with the hairy ear mutation exhibited significant gene expression changes related to hair growth, such as upregulation of hair keratin and keratin-associated proteins, shedding light on the Hoxc gene cluster's role in this phenotype.

This study found that a chemically modified small-interfering RNA candidate, AR-27 E-Chol, effectively stimulated hair regrowth and reduced androgen receptor gene expression in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia, indicating its potential as a novel therapeutic approach.

This study identified the FGF5:c.578C>T variant as linked to long hair in Akitas in Japan and suggests that genetic testing could help improve their breeding practices and welfare.

This study details a case of a 20-year-old woman with APECED syndrome and alopecia areata who experienced complete scalp hair regrowth and improved quality of life after nine months of ruxolitinib treatment, highlighting the drug's effectiveness for severe AA linked to AIRE gene mutation.

This study found that in male patients with androgenic alopecia, individuals with certain glutathione S-transferase gene polymorphisms exhibited higher oxidative stress and lower antioxidant capacity, although differences were not statistically significant, and oxidative stress appeared to increase with the progression of alopecia stages.

This study found that genetic predictions of male pattern baldness from European populations do not generalize well to African populations, highlighting significant differences in genetic architecture between them.

This study found that activation of RORA significantly promotes the level of autophagy in rat hair follicle stem cells, suggesting a potential target for research on hair follicle development and treatments for conditions like alopecia.

This study found a weak association between Cyp11a1 gene variation and polycystic ovary syndrome, with higher di-hydro-testosterone levels observed in individuals with the syndrome and anovulatory PCOS compared to controls.

In this study, PDO, PLLA, and PCL thread implants in ageing rat skin did not alter MMP1 gene expression but maintained collagen levels similar to young skin without UV-B exposure, suggesting possible benefits for skin collagen but not gene expression modification.

This study observed that TBX3 mRNA expression levels were region-specific and correlated with pigmentation patterns in dun Mongolian horses, providing insights into the genetic mechanisms behind their distinctive Bider markings.

This study found that the Geh gene responsible for lipase enzyme production was highly expressed in Staphylococcus aureus isolates from acne patients, implicating this enzyme in the infection's pathogenesis.

This study found that among women with PCOS, the FokI CC genotype of the VDR gene may offer protection against acne and seborrhea, while the VDR-TaqI dominant genotype is associated with reduced oxidative stress.

This study reports the first case of mandibuloacral dysplasia syndrome associated with MTX2 gene mutation in the Chinese population, expanding the known spectrum of MTX2 mutations.

In this study, researchers discovered that the MafB gene, which is important for macrophage differentiation, shows high expression in the pancreas and is influenced by sex steroids, with varied expression patterns in hamster tissues and during reproductive phases.
