This study proposed a model that accurately predicts skin condition using genotype information and machine learning, suggesting potential for creating customized cosmetics.

This study identified a novel homozygous mutation in the 5'-UTR of the POMC gene, suggesting a new molecular mechanism for the syndrome of adrenal insufficiency, obesity, and red hair.

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 study suggests that melatonin may enhance wool growth in cashmere goats by activating sulfur metabolism genes and high-sulfur protein genes, which are crucial for providing sulfur-containing amino acids needed for wool quality.

This study identified four genetic loci on chromosomes 6, 10, 16, and 18 that may contribute to susceptibility for alopecia areata and suggested shared genetic factors with psoriasis.

This review discusses the autoimmune nature of alopecia areata, potential therapeutic targets, and highlights the need for further studies on immunomodulatory treatments and genetic factors, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses genomic and postgenomic alterations in chronic degenerative diseases and potential modulation by dietary and pharmacological agents, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, two unrelated Honduran patients with Sjögren-Larsson syndrome had the same genetic mutation but displayed different disease severities, suggesting that factors beyond the ALDH3A2 mutation influence clinical outcome.

This study identified genetic mutations linked to congenital ichthyosis in families from the UAE and Turkey, revealing a connection between keratinization disorders and impaired filaggrin processing.

This systematic review and meta-analysis reported potential risk variants for acne in genes related to inflammation and sebaceous gland function, including TNF, CYP17A1, and FST, across diverse populations.

In this study, specific SNPs in the FST gene were significantly associated with various wool quality traits in Chinese Merino sheep, suggesting potential markers for breeding programs.

This study identified several significant genetic variants associated with alopecia universalis, including a novel association with HLA-DRB5, which may play a hidden role in the disease.

This study discovered that a specific G to C mutation in the ornithine aminotransferase gene is linked to the retarded hair growth phenotype in mice and may serve as a model for human gyrate atrophy.

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.

This case report describes frontal fibrosing alopecia in a woman with primary biliary cirrhosis and polymyalgia rheumatica, suggesting a possible autoimmune link to this form of hair loss.

This study analyzed the genetics of the patchiness phenotype in New Zealand rabbits and found that the gene KRT82, with identified SNPs in its promoter, may serve as a potential biomarker for breeding these rabbits.

This study identifies a polygenic basis for atypical recurrent flank alopecia in Cesky Fousek dogs through genome-wide association analysis and gene expression profiling, highlighting several metabolic pathways involved in the condition.

This study examined genetic risk factors for alopecia areata in the Jordanian population but found no significant association between the 21 targeted risk loci and the condition, emphasizing variability in genetic predisposition across ethnic groups and potential non-genetic triggers.

In this genetic study, the researchers found that variants in the CLEC4D gene are significantly associated with the development of alopecia areata among individuals in the Jordanian population, pointing to a potential genetic influence on the disease's pathogenesis.

This study found that genetic predictions of male pattern baldness from European populations do not generalize well to African populations, highlighting significant differences in genetic architecture between them.

This review discusses the integration of omics analyses in androgenetic alopecia research, reporting no new clinical results but suggesting that collaborative multi-omics studies may enhance understanding of AGA's pathomechanisms.

The authors concluded that antibodies against tyrosinase and gp100 may be effective in diagnosing melanoma, including challenging variants like amelanotic and desmoplastic types, when appropriate antigen retrieval techniques are used.

This study produced a high-coverage genome of the Tyrolean Iceman, revealing no Steppe-related ancestry but significant Anatolian-farmer-related ancestry, and found genetic markers associated with darker skin, male-pattern baldness, type 2 diabetes, and obesity, aligning with observations of his mummified body.

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.

This study reported that heat treatment significantly increased the incidence of alopecia areata in C3H/HeJ mice, suggesting a role for induced HSPA1A/B expression in disease development.

Among Merino × Southdown cross sheep, this study found that certain variants of the KRT81 gene were associated with differences in fleece weight, but not with staple length or fibre diameter traits.

This study found that Aire‒/‒ mice spontaneously developed persistent AA-like lesions, highlighting a potential role for AIRE in hair follicle biology and pathogenesis of alopecia areata.

In this study, researchers found two non-synonymous SNPs in the TERT gene associated with mean wool staple strength in sheep, suggesting TERT as a potential candidate gene for improving wool traits.
