This study suggests that the methylation degree of HOXC8 exon 1 in the hair follicle may influence cashmere fiber growth in Liaoning cashmere goats.

This case report describes a 7-year-old female from the Middle East with monilethrix, highlighting the disease's rarity in this population, characterized by brittle, sparse hair and keratosis pilaris.

This study found that maternal hephaestin knockout in mice leads to neonatal hair loss, likely due to low iron levels in the mother's milk.

This study found that the desmosomal protein desmoplakin is crucial for proper epidermal morphogenesis and radial intercalation in developing Xenopus embryos, affecting keratin organization and ectodermal structures.

This study found that overexpression of antizyme in mice with activated MEK reduced skin tumor growth by inhibiting putrescine accumulation, slowing cell growth, and increasing G2/M transit time.

The authors reviewed cases of six children with both hair-shaft abnormalities and neurological disorders, noting that such hair defects may indicate neurological conditions, including potentially treatable metabolic errors.

This study developed an improved reference genome for the African spiny mouse using long Nanopore sequencing reads, potentially aiding future research into the species' remarkable tissue regeneration capabilities.

This study suggests that mNotch expression plays a significant role in hair follicle differentiation and cell fate selection within the follicle during development.

This study reports a novel LSS gene mutation in an Egyptian family with alopecia intellectual disability syndrome 4, expanding the known clinical and genetic features of the condition.

This study found that examining the microscopic and ultramicroscopic structures of donkey and horse hair can help differentiate between the species based on distinct differences in hair cuticle and brain substance patterns.

This article reviews the case of a 2-year-old boy with rhombencephalosynapsis and considers its potential links to Gomez–López-Hernández syndrome, suggesting further research into its genetic causes; no new clinical results are reported.

This study shows that differences in Hoxc gene expression in hair follicle mesenchyme along the body axis contribute to regional variations in mammalian hair growth.

This dissertation reveals that FERONIA, a cell wall-binding receptor kinase, plays a crucial role in regulating plant functions such as sugar signaling, pollen tube reception, and RAC/ROP-mediated auxin signaling.

This study found that in spiny mice, the proximal side of ear wounds is crucial for regeneration, a process possibly linked to unique injury-induced immune responses compared to nonregenerative rodents.

This study identified a 14,883 bp genomic deletion affecting the Plcd1 and Vill genes as likely responsible for the abnormal phenotype observed in snthr-1Bao mice.

Mice with extra sheep genes had hair that fell out and regrew in cycles.

This study identified the TALE homeodomain transcription factor Meis2 as a crucial regulator for the maturation and end-organ innervation of certain mechanoreceptors in mice, with its absence leading to altered sensory neuron structure and impaired touch sensitivity.

This study discovered a novel mechanism by which germ stem cells exit their niche in C. elegans, involving thin membranous protrusions from adjacent somatic gonad cells.

This study identified a 195 bp duplication in crested chickens that causes large crest feathers and can be associated with cerebral hernia in some breeds, but not all.

New mutations in hair keratin genes can change hair structure and cause monilethrix, with nail issues more common in certain gene mutations.

This article presents five family cases of monilethrix and reports that neither vitamins nor desquamative ointments are effective treatments, although symptoms may spontaneously regress over time.

This study reports that the asebia-2J mutation in mice affects sebaceous gland function and leads to hair follicle destruction, offering a model for human scarring alopecias.

This review discusses AMH and ovarian morphology as complementary markers in diagnosing PCOS/PMOS and reports no new clinical results, highlighting the need for a multidomain approach in diagnosis and treatment.

This review discusses the shared molecular and cellular processes in the early development stages of skin appendages like hair follicles, teeth, and mammary glands, reporting no new results.

This article discusses monilethrix in a 6-year-old girl, explores various aspects of the disease, and its treatment, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the role of LMNA gene mutations, particularly in Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome, but does not report new experimental findings.

This study used developing mouse hair follicles to explore early epithelial bud formation, finding that the Rho GTPase regulator ARHGEF3 plays a crucial role in regulating cell fate and cadherin patterning, with knockouts showing disrupted morphology and increased straight hair follicle growth.

This case report describes the diagnosis of monilethrix in a 2-year-old boy using trichoscopy, highlighting its rarity and the challenge of diagnosing it without a family history.

This study reports that dynamic interactions between stem cells and their niche, influenced by macro-environmental factors, regulate regenerative behavior in integument pattern formation.
