This study reports on eight previously unpublished cases of Bohring-Opitz syndrome with ASXL1 mutations, suggesting the importance of screening for Wilms tumors in these patients.

This study found that despite strong homology between two K16 genes, only one encoded a functional protein that assembled into keratin filaments in epithelial cells, possibly due to promoter strength differences.

This study found that FOXN1 haploinsufficiency is a significant genetic factor causing T cell lymphopenia at birth, linked to reduced thymic function in both humans and mice.

A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.

This study provides genomic and epigenomic insights into the white wax scale insect, highlighting high methylation levels and differential hormone profiles linked to its sexual dimorphism and developmental differences.

This study found that PBX1 overexpression reduces hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cell senescence and apoptosis by alleviating ROS-mediated DNA damage, rather than enhancing DNA repair.

This study observed that in chicken skin, large-scale differences in gene expression between feathered and scaly skin are controlled by enhancer-driven uniform expression, while small-scale differences within individual feathers are associated with chromatin looping.

This study identified the rough coat mutation in mice, but found that LOXL is not the causal gene, although its downregulation might contribute to related phenotypic changes.

This study reports that a new nude allele, nu(StL), encodes a truncated Whn transcription factor affecting T-cell development and keratin gene expression, with notable differences from the original Whn(nu) mutation.

This study found that mutant cells in hair follicles can be tolerated or eliminated by surrounding normal tissue, suggesting the potential for wild-type cells to counteract oncogenic mutations.

This study found that the transcription factor p63 is crucial for horizontal basal cell differentiation in the olfactory epithelium, suggesting a p63-dependent mechanism activates reserve stem cells after injury.

In this study, researchers identified the CBL1-CIPK26 Ca 2+ sensor-kinase complexes as key modulators of the NADPH oxidase RBOHC crucial for root hair differentiation in plants.

This report identifies a novel splice-site variant in the LAMB3 gene linked to junctional epidermolysis bullosa, emphasizing the need for gene sequencing in diagnosing the disease.

This study indicates that the Sp6 gene is crucial for the development of skin, teeth, limbs, and lungs in mice, possibly through regulating apoptosis.

In this study, researchers found that a PER3 gene SNP may be pathogenic for a new subtype of dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria, especially when combined with a SASH1 mutation.

This study observed that mice lacking epidermal HSD11b1 had increased non-histaminergic itch and changes in skin nerve fibers, potentially linked to higher TSLP expression.

In this study, researchers found that Dlx3 plays a crucial role in regulating chromatin accessibility and gene transcription during keratinocyte differentiation in the epidermis, highlighting its potential impact on epidermal barrier formation and differentiation.

This study found that overexpressing the BMP inhibitor Noggin in transgenic mice led to a significant loss of nontylotrich hair follicles, suggesting a critical role for BMP signaling in hair follicle morphogenesis and cycling.

This study found that activating β-catenin signaling in embryonic epidermis promoted hair follicle characteristics at the expense of normal epidermal differentiation, leading to early pigmentation and innervation.

This report describes a novel mutation in the CDH3 gene in an 11-year-old Iranian boy with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy, indicating a new genetic variant associated with the disorder.

In this study, the researchers observed that higher expression of the Sonic hedgehog gene in cashmere goats' hair follicle cycles is associated with increased cell proliferation and reduced apoptosis, suggesting its role in enhancing cashmere quality.

In this study, beta-catenin expression was found to be significant in embryonic goose skin during early feather bud development, with patterns similar to Shh expression, suggesting its importance in normal development.

This study observed that COX-2 overexpression in transgenic mice led to a significant reduction in skin tumor development compared to controls, challenging the expected role of COX-2 in promoting tumors.

The mutation causes hairless mice due to mislocalized and dysfunctional HR protein.

This study found pathogenic mutations in genes EDA, EDA1R, and EDARADD in 101 out of 124 hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia patients, revealing 23 novel mutations and indicating genetic variability.

β-catenin affects hair growth and can lead to tumors, needing more research for better understanding.

This review covers the molecular basis of Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome and its implications for potential therapeutic targets, but it does not report new experimental results.

This study suggests that hereditary hyperplastic gingivitis in silver foxes may involve the MAPK signaling pathway, with potential androgen effects influencing disease severity.
