In this study, researchers found no significant association between VDR gene polymorphisms and the susceptibility to alopecia areata, suggesting that these genetic variations may not play a role in the disease's development.

This genome-wide association study identified 20 genetic signals at 15 risk loci related to severe acne, revealing new insights into its genetic predisposition, particularly affecting skin structure and maintenance.

This study found that both genetic and epigenetic factors significantly influence age-related facial skin aging, with lifestyle and environmental factors also playing a substantial role.

This study identified two novel genetic variants associated with Alzheimer's disease in APOE ε4 non-carriers, revealing insights into the disease's underlying regulatory mechanisms.

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 study found an association between atopic dermatitis and autoimmune diseases in both adults and children, with women more likely to experience these complications, but further research is needed due to limited participant numbers.

This review examines the long-standing use of "Dictamnus" in traditional medicine, highlighting the promising potential of D. albus and D. hispanicus as herbal drug candidates, but presents no new experimental findings.

This study suggests that the AGA risk haplotype in Europeans was driven to high frequency by positive selection, likely associated with a variant in the EDA2R gene.

This study identified a novel locus for hereditary hypotrichosis simplex on chromosome 13q12.12~12.3 in a four-generation Chinese family.

This study found that specific SHBG gene variants and haplotypes are associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting that SHBG may be a candidate gene for the condition.

This study reported the discovery of large-scale haplotypes (cenhaps) in human centromere regions, revealing deep genetic diversity, including introgressed Neanderthal and ancient African lineages.

This study found an association between a splice site variant in the KRT71 gene and curly hair in Selkirk Rex cats, identifying a significant locus on chromosome B4.

This study found that in Chinese goat breeds, specific genetic variations, particularly in Tibetan Cashmere goats, are associated with traits like hair growth and adaptation to high-altitude environments.

A new genetic mutation in mice causes permanent hair loss and skin wrinkling.

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 review summarizes current genetic knowledge of alopecia areata and provides a theoretical framework for future genetic mapping studies, but reports no new results.

This study identified genetic variations in the DSG4 gene among sheep, revealing valuable markers for assessing their impact on wool traits.

This study found that both natural and environmental selection have significantly influenced the goat genome, revealing genetic loci tied to adaptation, fitness, and productive traits, more so than artificial selection, across various goat populations.

This review highlights the potential for using the Y chromosome in epigenetic analyses to better understand male-specific aging and disease mechanisms.

This study found that polymorphisms in KRTAP13.1, KRTAP27-1, and KRTAP24-1 were significantly associated with fiber diameter in Jiangnan cashmere goats, which may aid future breeding and conservation efforts.

In this study, a clear pattern of selective sweep was observed for the SLC24A5 gene, with high linkage disequilibrium and low haplotype diversity, but no clear correlation with UV radiation intensity was found.

This article reviews insights into the pathogenesis of primary cicatricial alopecias, such as lichen planopilaris, provided by emerging technologies, but it does not report new clinical results.

In this study, researchers identified a novel KRT74 gene mutation associated with autosomal recessive pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia in a Pakistani family, expanding the known genetic causes of the disorder.

This study identified two single-nucleotide polymorphisms and three haplotypes in the KRTAP7-1 gene across yak, taurine, and zebu cattle, with the BOVIN-KRTAP7-1*A haplotype most prevalent.

This study found that certain proteins linked to immune suppression and melanogenesis are associated with repigmentation in vitiligo patients undergoing standard treatment, suggesting these proteins and their pathways play roles distinct from merely reversing skin lesions.

In this proteomic analysis, the researchers found that transitioning from crimped to straight wool in Tan sheep is linked to significant changes in wool protein expression, revealing distinct patterns of keratins and keratin-associated proteins that could influence wool quality and economic value.

This study found that Swiss cattle exhibiting rat-tail syndrome are heterozygous for genetic variants linked to pigmentation and color dilution, likely due to Holstein introgression in the Simmental breed.

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.
