This study identified a genetic locus associated with coat type in domestic dogs, showing certain variants linked to single-coated breeds and suggesting potential regulatory roles.

This study offers evidence suggesting a probable causal role of certain gut microbiota in the development of alopecia areata.

This study found no significant genetic correlations between male pattern baldness and COVID-19 outcomes, suggesting that shared genetic factors may not explain the reported association.

DNA can predict physical traits like eye and hair color accurately, especially in Europeans, but predicting other traits and in diverse populations needs more research.

In this study, researchers identified 19 genetic risk loci and highlighted 16 candidate causal genes, including immune-related ones, associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, emphasizing the role of specific immune cells like T cells and NK cells in its pathogenesis.

This study identified a genetic locus associated with idiopathic scoliosis in females, which might influence spinal gene expression and was previously linked to protection from early-onset alopecia.

This study identified 63 genetic loci associated with male-pattern baldness, uncovering genes and pathways that may help develop treatments and suggesting its connection to other human conditions.

This review discusses the genetic research developments in androgenetic alopecia, reporting no new clinical results, and highlights the potential for discovering novel therapeutic targets.

This review summarizes the genetic studies on female pattern hair loss, highlighting the lack of clearly identified susceptibility loci and suggesting distinct aetiological differences from male pattern hair loss.

This review synthesizes recent research to propose a precision framework for treating androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata based on genetic insights and pathway biology, highlighting the roles of androgen-receptor signaling, immune dysregulation, and emerging therapies like regenerative medicine and AI-assisted diagnostics.

In this study, researchers described protocols using C3H/HeJ mice to reliably induce alopecia areata through full-thickness skin grafts or adoptive transfer of cultured lymphoid cells, offering valuable models for studying the disease and testing new drug therapies.

This review summarizes recent genetic findings in alopecia areata research and their implications for developing new treatments, without reporting new clinical results.

This study identified two significant genomic regions potentially involved in hair development and growth in Casertana pigs, highlighting FOXN3 and ARHGEF10 as candidate genes associated with a hairless phenotype.

This genome-wide association study identified several genetic markers, including specific SNPs and HLA genotypes, associated with alopecia areata susceptibility in the Taiwanese population, highlighting key pathways involved in immune response and offering insights into the genetic origins of this autoimmune condition.

This paper discusses prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment controversies and advocates for individualized approaches, reporting no new findings.

This study assessed breeding value estimation methods for Korean Sapsaree dogs, finding varied accuracy across BLUP approaches and identifying significant genomic regions affecting traits like body height and hair length. The researchers suggest these findings can enhance breeding strategies for this culturally significant breed.

This study examined noninvasive tissue samples, including buccal swabs, hair follicles, saliva, and urine cell pellets, and found hair follicles and urine cell pellets promising for transcriptomic and clinical analyses due to their sample quality and performance in disease-relevant applications.

This study applied a machine learning-based genomic analysis to identify genetic markers associated with wool traits in Central Anatolian Merino sheep, successfully highlighting loci relevant to fiber diameter, staple length, and greasy fleece yield, which could inform breeding programs to enhance wool quality and yield.

This review discusses the evolution of alopecia areata treatments towards more targeted therapies and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing cooperation between clinicians and scientists in understanding the disease's pathophysiology.

In this study by Sawada et al., the researchers developed a human striatal model using stem cells and postmortem samples, revealing accelerated neuronal maturation and specific gene expression changes linked to schizophrenia risk, which may inform future research on the disorder's developmental roots.
