This review examines the genetics of acne vulgaris, concluding that stem/progenitor cell maintenance and cellular migration are key processes in its pathogenesis, potentially shifting future treatment strategies beyond traditional antibiotics and retinoids, which have notable side effects.

This chapter reviews recent findings on androgen receptor function, structure, and interactions, highlighting post-translational modifications and mutations related to prostate cancer, but reports no new experimental results.

This article discusses the composition and function of the dermal papilla in hair follicles, focusing on its role in hair shaft generation and suggesting that cell loss in this area may contribute to hair loss.

This review summarizes recent genetic research on hidradenitis suppurativa, highlighting potential therapeutic targets and genetic mutations, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this review, researchers discussed the development, challenges, and future prospects of using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology in livestock breeding, highlighting its current limitations in precise gene insertion and off-target effects, particularly in large livestock like cashmere goats.

This study found that CRISPR/Cas9-mediated disruption of the FGF5 gene in goats increased hair follicle numbers and fiber length, suggesting more cashmere production could be achieved.

This review discusses the importance of omega-3 fatty acids for human health and explores recent advancements in genetically modifying plants to produce these essential nutrients, but reports no new results.

This study developed a deep learning-based tool to quantify individual hair fibers in mice, revealing distinct hair phenotypes linked to hormonal, genetic, and age-related factors, and suggesting its potential for new diagnostic methods through hair analysis.

This review discusses the mechanisms and potential therapeutic benefits of mesenchymal stromal cell-derived extracellular vesicles delivered via biomaterials, but reports no new clinical results.

Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.

This chapter reviews keratins in skin epithelia, including their roles in cellular function and disease, and reports no new experimental results.

This study suggests that the methylation degree of HOXC8 exon 1 in the hair follicle may influence cashmere fiber growth in Liaoning cashmere goats.

This study mapped the genome-wide epigenetic landscape in secondary hair follicle stem cells of goats, revealing distinct histone modification signatures associated with cashmere fiber cycling during different stages of hair growth.

This review discusses the dermatologic manifestations and management of polycystic ovary syndrome, underscoring the need for mechanism-based, personalized treatments and integrated mental health support, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the limitations of animal models, particularly mice, in accurately predicting human skin wound healing outcomes and emphasizes understanding species-specific differences in skin characteristics for better translation to clinical settings.

This review classifies mutant mice with hair abnormalities into six categories, providing an annotated table that serves as a reference for understanding the molecular controls of hair growth.

This study suggests that 3D spheroid cultivation of dermal papilla cells can restore their hair-inductive capabilities, which are lost in 2D-cultured cells.

The book provides a clear overview of PCOD and is recommended for medical trainees and clinicians, but may lack depth for advanced researchers.

This study found that RSL4 in Arabidopsis thaliana regulates genes necessary for root hair elongation by controlling proteins involved in cell signaling, cell wall modification, and secretion.

In this study, researchers used the Displacement Framework to explore how hair, especially in Black communities, serves as both a biological archive and a site of social pressure, with natural hair return symbolizing a move back to genetic origins.

This study conducted a meta-analysis and found that men with both frontal and vertex male pattern baldness have a slightly increased risk of developing prostate cancer, though most data was from Caucasian populations and effect modification by genetic variations was not assessed.

This paper reviews the evolution of skin appendages and keratin-associated proteins among amniotes, proposing a model for their genetic divergence without new experimental results.

The researchers reviewed the status, challenges, and future prospects of CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene-editing technology in livestock breeding, noting its benefits and highlighting concerns about low efficiency in inserting foreign genes and off-target effects.

This research observed that, in domestic cats like Maine Coon and Rex breeds, a "piebald" coat color pattern is likely influenced by the Silver locus, although the specific mutations involved are yet to be published.

This study applies the Displacement Framework to explore how hair serves as both a biological and social signal, highlighting the costs of institutional demands for hair straightening in Black communities, which the natural hair movement counters by returning to natural hair.

The authors reviewed the mechanisms behind Kennedy's disease, noting advances in therapeutic strategies such as androgen deprivation and gene silencing that may soon expand treatment options for this incurable neuromuscular condition.

This study found that the Siberian sunshine tabby coat modification is associated with a specific CORIN gene variant, suggesting a genetic basis for this golden phenotype in cats.

This review discusses the physiopathology of androgenetic alopecia and evaluates various traditional and emerging treatments, reporting no new clinical results but highlighting the need for enhanced treatment strategies.

Certain proteins involved in DNA modification may affect the genetic changes in systemic lupus erythematosus and could indicate the disease's activity.
