This study revealed that heterozygous mice with the hairy ear mutation exhibited significant gene expression changes related to hair growth, such as upregulation of hair keratin and keratin-associated proteins, shedding light on the Hoxc gene cluster's role in this phenotype.

This study identified a new pathogenic variant, c.1081G>T; p.(Glu361*), in the KRT31 gene as a cause of autosomal-dominant monilethrix, highlighting the role of hair keratin proteins in hair and nail tissue disorders.

This study found that Msx2-deficient mice exhibit skull and bone formation defects similar to those seen in human MSX2-related conditions, highlighting the gene's importance in skeletal and organ development.

This study in cashmere goats found that DNA methylation levels were lower during hair follicle differentiation compared to induction, suggesting it plays a critical role in gene regulation for hair morphogenesis.

In this study, researchers found that microRNAs and specific target genes, such as MiR-195 and genes like CHP1, SMAD2, FZD6, and SIAH1, play significant roles in regulating hair follicle initiation in cashmere goats.

This study identified a new 65 kD and 48 kD keratin pair expressed in specific mouse epithelial sites, suggesting a unique evolutionary branch of hair-related keratins.

This study identified genetic variants in the DSG4 gene associated with the autosomal recessive form of monilethrix in Chinese patients, expanding the understanding of its phenotypic spectrum and clinical features.

This study suggests that subtle modifications in ribosomal RNA methylation may influence cellular physiology and contribute to ribosome specialization in senescent human dermal fibroblasts.

This study suggests that the KAP 7 gene may serve as a potential molecular marker for genetic selection to improve staple length and greasy fleece weight in Rambouillet sheep.

Mice hair follicles take in the amino acid cystine.

In this study, researchers successfully synthesized a rigid 3a-arylhexahydropentalene-1,6-dione from the easily accessible starting material cyclopent-2-en-1-one, highlighting a structural motif common in natural products and pharmaceuticals.

In this study, blocking autophagy with 3-methyladenine significantly improved the survival of inner ear hair cells in a gentamicin-induced ototoxic mouse model.

This study found that in Liaoning cashmere goats, overexpression of the PIP5K1A gene enhances skin fibroblast proliferation, while interference with this gene reverses melatonin-induced proliferation, and PIP5K1A regulates certain miRNA expressions, suggesting a role in improving cashmere yield and quality.

ACTH promotes hair growth in mink, but α-MSH does not.

This study found that mouse skin can produce and metabolize serotonin and N-acetylserotonin, with activity influenced by location, physiological skin status, cell type, and mouse strain.

This study found that during amelogenesis in Msx2 null mice, a dysfunctional enamel organ developed due to abnormal epithelial transformation and lacked proper enamel formation.

This study found that in a shaving animal model of mice, increased enzyme activities and gene expression correlated with enhanced hair growth, suggesting they are good biomarkers in the anagen phase.

This study found that megestrol acetate increases the proliferation, migration, and adipogenic differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells through glucocorticoid receptor phosphorylation.

This study observed that injecting mice with α-MSH resulted in black hair regrowth in shaved and plucked areas, suggesting a potential link to the agent darkening hair in animals with a specific pituitary tumor.

In this study, the researchers reported that NMMHC IIA dissociates from PAR1 and activates the CREB3/ARF4 pathway, worsening thrombin-induced blood-brain barrier damage, suggesting it as a potential therapeutic target for blood-brain barrier-related diseases.

This study found that MAP-2 is intensely expressed in the companion layer of the hair follicle, suggesting its potential importance to follicle integrity and possible involvement in some types of alopecia.

Using a multi-omics analysis, this study identified key regulators like PLA2G12A, KRT79, and prostaglandin B2 that influence cashmere fineness, providing crucial data for understanding the molecular mechanisms behind this trait in Liaoning cashmere goats.

This study identified NM_026333 as a potential anti-aging gene that, when induced, may alleviate proton-induced aging symptoms in CF6-overexpressing and high salt-fed mice.

This study found that the protein MIM is crucial for maintaining cilia and Sonic hedgehog signaling in mesenchymal cells by counteracting Src-mediated phosphorylation of Cortactin, impacting hair follicle formation.
