This study identified a 290 Kb microduplication in chromosome 1q22 in a family with members exhibiting neurodevelopmental disorders, suggesting a link between this genetic alteration and the observed neurological symptoms.

Buschke-Ollendorff syndrome is a rare genetic disorder causing skin and bone changes, with some cases also showing ADHD or developmental delays.

This study found that the wavy coat trait in Nakano cataract mice is polygenic, involving major and minor genes, and resembles human curly scalp hair associated with the PRSS53 gene alteration.

A rare genetic deletion in the KRT1 gene causes unique skin symptoms in a family.

In this study, specific genetic polymorphisms in the KRT71 gene were associated with hairless and curly phenotypes in Sphynx and Devon Rex cats.

This study reported that genetic changes in trichilemmal carcinoma resemble those in other skin cancers, with TP53 mutations associated with aggressive clinical outcomes.

This study found that trichilemmal carcinoma shares genetic changes with other skin cancers, suggesting a similar pathogenesis, particularly in those with aggressive clinical courses linked to TP53 mutations.

This study reported genetic mutations in trichilemmal carcinoma similar to those found in other skin cancers, including TP53 mutations associated with aggressive disease.

This study found that a genetic variant in the EDAR gene leads to typical East Asian hair characteristics by increasing signaling output, as shown in transgenic mice experiments.

This study found that a genetic deletion causing truncated desmoglein 3 protein in mice led to severe pathologies, including cyclic hair loss and immunodeficiency, suggesting possible implications for human desmosome-related diseases.

This review discusses the relationship between ectodermal alterations and immunodeficiencies, particularly the roles of hyper-IgE syndrome, ectodermal dysplasia, and FOXN1 gene mutations, but it presents no new research findings.

In this study, researchers found that skin pigmentation alterations in a mouse model of Carney complex may be caused by specific dermal fibroblasts promoting melanogenic signaling.

This study found that sebaceous gland-derived cutaneous adnexal carcinomas exhibited the highest frequency of genomic alterations compared to other tumor types.

This report on identical female twins with folliculitis decalvans suggests a possible genetic component to the disease, marking the first such case in twins.

This review discusses the pathogenesis of melasma, including genetic, environmental, and hormonal factors, and highlights potential avenues for new treatments and preventive strategies, but reports no new experimental findings.

This article reviews monilethrix, a rare genetic hair disorder causing brittle hair and alopecia, and emphasizes the need for clinical diagnosis and characteristic tricoscopic findings.

This article reviews potential factors influencing Behçet's disease, like increased neutrophil functions, immunological changes, stress, and hormonal alterations, but it presents no new clinical results.

This review evaluates methods to study stem cell division patterns, particularly in the mammary gland, and discusses genetic factors affecting division modalities and their implications for breast cancer, but reports no new results.

This study found that K17 is crucial for the structural integrity and survival of hair-producing cells, with K17 null mice developing alopecia due to hair fragility and follicular alterations.

This research observed that mutations in the PTCH gene are common in both sporadic and hereditary basal cell cancers, suggesting a critical role of the PTCH signaling pathway in skin tumor development.

This review discusses the molecular basis and clinical implications of primary generalized glucocorticoid resistance and hypersensitivity, attributing them to mutations in the human glucocorticoid receptor gene, and reports no new clinical findings.

This review summarizes proposed pathophysiological mechanisms of postpartum depression, highlighting neuroendocrine and neurobiological changes, but reports no new findings and calls for integrated understanding of the disorder.

This review discusses the role of the skin microbiome in the pathogenesis of various skin disorders, such as atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, and reports no new clinical findings; it emphasizes potential therapeutic implications.

This study suggests that typical skin lesions in Carney complex may originate from the pro-melanogenic activity of a specific dermal fibroblast population influenced by PKA signaling.

This study observed that FOXA1 and CCL2 gene expression levels were significantly elevated in women with different PCOS phenotypes compared to healthy controls, indicating phenotype-specific molecular variations which could inform personalized treatment strategies for infertility in PCOS.

Keratin 17 is important for hair and nail structure and affects pachyonychia congenita symptoms.

This article discusses the aging-related changes in hair structure and function, and examines various treatments like light therapy, minoxidil, and finasteride aimed at mitigating hair thinning and loss, but reports no new clinical results.

The researchers reported that among Mediterranean Sicilian women with PCOS, Phenotype B exhibited the most severe metabolic abnormalities, notably obesity and altered glucose metabolism, whereas Phenotype D showed no such issues.

This paper reviews the complexities of diagnosing and managing polycystic ovary syndrome, emphasizing the importance of individualized treatment to address symptoms due to hyperandrogenism, ovarian dysfunction, and metabolic issues, but reports no new results.
