This study used whole-genome resequencing to analyze genetic diversity and selection in 17 rabbit breeds, identifying genes linked to traits like coat color and body size, which could inform breeding and conservation efforts.

This review discusses recent genome-wide association studies identifying novel candidate genes for various forms of alopecia, providing insights into their pathogenesis and molecular mechanisms, but reports no new clinical results.

This study identified several genetic mutations linked to hereditary skin and hair disorders in consanguineous families from remote areas of Pakistan, enhancing understanding of the molecular basis of these conditions.

This review details the global mutation patterns of genes associated with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis and highlights potential, yet unproven, treatments like minoxidil and regenerative therapies, reporting no new clinical results.

In this case study from King Fahad University Hospital, an 11-month-old Saudi boy with a history of short, non-growing hair was diagnosed with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, attributed to a homozygous mutation in the LIPH gene.

In this study, a 3-year-old Japanese child with autosomal recessive woolly hair was found to have a distinctive irregular and rough cuticle on the hair shaft, along with a homozygous pathogenic LIPH variant, suggesting a critical role for genetic analysis in understanding rare hair conditions.

In this review, researchers highlighted the prevalence of hereditary hair diseases in the Japanese population, emphasizing the significant impact of LIPH gene variants on autosomal recessive woolly hair and the importance of continued research to better diagnose and manage these disorders.

This letter reports the first known Japanese case of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with compound heterozygous mutations in the LIPH gene.

This case report describes a 14-year-old girl with congenital hypotrichosis who experienced improved hair density and thickness after 3 months of treatment with oral minoxidil.

This study found that combining microneedling with 5% minoxidil improved hair growth in Chinese men with androgenetic alopecia, possibly through activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This study reported that squarticles, nanoparticle carriers made from sebum-derived lipids, significantly enhanced minoxidil delivery to hair follicles in vitro, increasing follicular uptake sevenfold and minimizing systemic absorption compared to a free control solution, while showing good skin tolerability.

This study reports the first familial case of alopecia linked to a novel homozygous variant in the DSP gene, which did not coincide with heart abnormalities despite prior associations.

This study found that extracellular factors from a specific developmental stage can promote hair follicle neogenesis in adult skin by facilitating interactions between fibroblasts and keratinocytes.

This study identified five mutations in the gene LSS in individuals with unexplained hypotrichosis simplex, highlighting a potential role of mislocalized LSS proteins in disrupting hair follicle biology.
