This study suggests that in gp91phox-knockout mice, tranexamic acid administration led to brown hair by increasing MGRN1 and collagen XVII levels, while the retention of black hair appears to rely on the gp91phox/ROS/IL-1β/TGF-β pathway.

This study by Pérez-Oliva et al. explored how Mahogunin Ring Finger-1 (MGRN1) affects melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) signaling, suggesting that MGRN1 competitively inhibits Gαs binding to MC1R, influencing pigment production.

In this study, the expression of Gnαs was significantly higher in black mice compared to white mice, suggesting its potential involvement in coat color formation in mice.

This review highlights the possibility of safely altering hair color through innovative cosmetics by targeting key biological processes in hair follicles, using insights from mammalian pigmentation studies and drug-induced hair color changes as potential pathways.

This article reviews follicular melanogenesis, detailing how melanin synthesis and its regulation in hair follicles depend on a complex interplay of cellular and molecular mechanisms, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study identified FP-1 as a highly specific extracellular matrix protein in follicular papilla cells, which may play a role in hair growth regulation during specific hair cycle phases.

This study identified molecular elements controlling the expression and stabilization of THH protein in hair follicle cells, revealing key mechanisms that support hair shaft development in mice.

This study found that mutations in the Foxn1 gene in nude mice affect not only hair but also nail structure and differentiation, offering insights into nail hypergranulosis pathogenesis relevant to human nail diseases.

In this case report, a 20-year-old male with tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome was found to have a de novo frameshift mutation in the TRPS1 gene, highlighting the challenges in diagnosing this rare disorder.

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 found a significant association between reduced FGF13 levels and X-linked congenital generalized hypertrichosis, suggesting FGF13's potential role in hair follicle growth and the hair cycle.

This study found that NDRG1 expression increases during the proliferation of infantile hemangioma and may positively regulate its growth, while FOXO1 downregulation plays a role in its pathogenesis.

In this study, researchers found that IGFBP‐rP1 levels were lower in individuals with androgenic alopecia compared to healthy controls, and subcutaneous injection of IGFBP‐rP1 showed potential in slowing hair loss progression in a mouse model by affecting the hair cycle transition.

This research observed that the skeletal abnormalities in Noggin null mice varied based on genetic background, and identified haploinsufficiency leading to joint fusions, similar to human conditions associated with NOGGIN deficiency.

This study reports a novel missense mutation in the HR gene in a 68-year-old Hungarian woman with alopecia universalis and limb deformities, suggesting a need for further research on its role in these conditions.

This research reports that the polyG fragment within the Hoxc13 protein alters its gene regulatory functions, which could have influenced mammalian hair evolution by affecting pathways related to hair follicle development.

This review discusses the diverse roles of the TRPS1 gene in regulating cartilage, kidney, and hair follicle development, highlighting its functions and interactions, but provides no new experimental results.

This case study reports that a heterozygous missense GJA1 mutation, p.Gly138Ser, in a 2-year-old boy with oculodentodigital syndrome primarily resulted in syndactyly, fifth finger hypoplasia, and hypotrichosis, without neurological or craniofacial abnormalities.

This study found that HMGB1 enhanced hair growth by stimulating PGE2 production in human dermal papilla cells, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for alopecia treatment.

This study found that nexin 1 mRNA, a potent protease inhibitor, is prevalent in rat follicular papilla cells and may play a role in regulating hair follicular growth.

This study suggests that abnormal hair cycles in Hr mutant mice may be caused by HR protein overexpression, which down-regulates miR-31 and increases Tgf-β2 expression.

This study found that loss-of-function mutations in the HOXC13 gene cause autosomal-recessive pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia, emphasizing its role in hair and nail development.

This study suggests a regulatory model where HOXC13 activates Foxn1, affecting hair and nail differentiation, supported by similarities in Hoxc13(tm1Mrc) and Foxn1(nu) mice phenotypes and gene expression patterns.

This study found that an SNP in the FGFR2 gene, rs4752566, was significantly associated with hair thickness in Asian populations, suggesting an effect on hair morphology through altered FGFR2 expression levels.

Multiple mouse desmoglein 1 isoforms have distinct roles in skin and hair development.

In this study, AgK114 was found to be transiently induced in hamster epidermal keratinocytes following skin damage, suggesting its role in the recovery process after injury.

This study identified a novel missense MAFB variant in a family with some unaffected members, suggesting incomplete penetrance and the potential influence of modifier genes, epigenetic mechanisms, or environmental factors on MCTO phenotype.

This study found that the NHD domain, but not the PHD domain, of hPygo2 is crucial for Wnt-independent growth of ovarian cancer cells, and identified a key interaction with Treacle protein involved in ribosomal biogenesis.

In this study, SFRP1 expression was found to be upregulated in hair follicles from men with androgenetic alopecia, with the transcription factor FOXC1 playing a significant role in its regulation.
