This review discusses the genetic and biological factors influencing hair curliness, revealing strong links to specific protein variations, and reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the genetic mutations causing male pseudohermaphroditism from 17 beta-HSD-3 and 5 alpha-RD-2 deficiencies and reports no new clinical findings.

This publication is a letter discussing the association between an androgen receptor genetic variant and COVID-19 disease severity in hospitalized male patients, but it reports no new research results.

This study suggests that NFIB and STAT5 work together to control cell-specific genetic programs in mammalian tissues, particularly in mammary and hair follicle stem cells.

This review outlines best practices for providing culturally competent care to transgender patients and discusses considerations for assessing disease risk, but reports no new research findings.

This study suggests that genetic variants in the androgen receptor gene may predict which postmenopausal women with hair loss respond to finasteride therapy.

This review discusses recent genetic findings on hormonal signaling pathways in androgenetic alopecia, reporting no new study results but highlighting the need for further investigation.

This study found no significant associations between the polymorphisms of SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 genes and androgenetic alopecia, clinical types of baldness, or response to finasteride in Koreans.

In this study using data from young women in West Bengal, India, the researchers identified that leptin signaling impairment, insulin resistance, and specific gene mutations significantly contribute to PCOS, with obesity commonly manifesting in affected individuals.

This review examined genetic factors in 46, XY differences/disorders of sex development and found that whole-exome sequencing is more effective than panel sequencing for molecular diagnosis. It identified regional genetic variation and emphasized next-generation sequencing's role in detecting variants related to gonadal and androgen-related genes.

This review discusses recent advances in molecular genetics and their impact on the accuracy and understanding of diagnosing inherited skin diseases but reports no new results.

This report describes a patient with biotinidase deficiency presenting bilateral optic atrophy, and confirms autosomal recessive inheritance through enzyme dosage analysis in the patient and family members.

This study found that genetic risk factors for PCOS can lead to nonreproductive phenotypes in men, suggesting these effects are independent of ovarian function.

This study reviews the genetic mechanisms behind cat coat patterns, revealing that specific loci determine tabby variations and suggesting these patterns could unravel broader developmental and evolutionary biology insights.

This study analyzed RNA-seq data from various animal breeds and suggested that similar molecular mechanisms may underlie wool fineness in different sheep breeds. Researchers identified 32 candidate genes related to hair follicle regulation, providing insights for molecular breeding and evolutionary studies.

This study found that higher levels of AR expression are linked to a decreased risk of severe COVID-19 in females, and identified ACE2, MX1, and TMPRSS2 as important molecular markers for COVID-19 management.

This study found that C57BL/6 mice and Sprague–Dawley rats show distinct distributions of eccrine sweat glands and hair follicles in their volar skin, suggesting these models should be selected according to research focus on skin appendages.

This study reported a series of eight children with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets in Tunisia, identifying both common and novel mutations in the vitamin D receptor gene, and noting significant improvement with intravenous calcium treatment in most patients.

In this study, whole-genome sequencing of Lanping black-boned sheep identified ERBB4 and ROR1 genes as potentially important in their distinctive hyperpigmentation, enhancing understanding of their genetic evolution from Lanping normal sheep.

This study identified genetic loci and pathways associated with long hair growth in the Tianzhu white yak, providing new insights into the genetic mechanisms of this trait.

In this study, the CYP 21A2 gene p.V281L mutation was associated with an increased susceptibility to familial frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting an antigen-driven mechanism linked to certain human leukocyte antigen haplotypes.

This article reviews the genetic research on male androgenetic alopecia, highlighting that over 300 associated risk variants have been identified, with unclear mechanisms of action.

In this study, a Chinese Han family with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets was found to have a homozygous missense mutation in the VDR gene, and the affected individual uniquely responded well to treatment with oral calcium and low-dose calcitriol.

This study identified eight mutations in five genes associated with different aspects of ichthyosis among Tunisian patients, enhancing understanding of its genetic and clinical diversity.

In this study, researchers assessed the genetic diversity of 101 Ginkgo biloba individuals using EST-SSR markers and concluded that there is a high level of genetic diversity in Ginkgo populations, facilitating the construction of a core germplasm collection for breeding purposes.

This study found that mutations in the TULP3 gene are associated with progressive degeneration of the liver, kidney, and heart in adults, highlighting the importance of early detection and management.

This study found that knocking down P-cadherin expression in cultured human hair follicles recreates the hair abnormalities seen in patients with hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy.

This study identified 71 SNPs linked to black wool traits in Qira sheep and found that specific mutations in the TYRP1 gene significantly correlate with coat color variations, providing insights for their genetic selection and conservation.

In this Mendelian randomization study, shortened leukocyte telomere length was associated with an increased risk of androgenetic alopecia, but no causal relationship was found with alopecia areata.
