This study identified a compound heterozygous mutation in a hairless rhesus macaque, which was associated with skin abnormalities similar to those in hairless mice and humans with APL.

This case report describes a novel mutation in the CDH3 gene in an 11-year-old Iranian boy with sparse scalp hair and macular dystrophy, leading to altered P-cadherin synthesis.

This study discovered a conserved "fiber-like-motif" of melanosomes aligned in hair across various mammalian species, shedding light on the internal structure that influences hair's thermal and mechanical properties.

This study identified differentially expressed microRNAs between back and belly skin in Rex rabbits, highlighting their potential roles in skin development processes.

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.

This study found that, in mice, different precursor populations give rise to Merkel cells in hairy versus glabrous skin, but their formation is controlled by a common genetic program involving FGFR2 signaling.

This study suggests that a position effect disrupting TRPS1 expression may be linked to hypertrichosis in both Ambras syndrome in humans and a similar phenotype in Koa mice.

In this study, the expression of certain hair follicle-related genes differed between growth phases in Angora goats, with HOXC13 showing overexpression during the anagen phase, potentially influencing the mohair's shine and texture.

This study suggests that mouse keratin 6 isoforms, K6a and K6b, have overlapping but distinct expression profiles, differing notably in their expression in suprabasal cells and response to phorbol esters.

This study identified histologic lesions and a defect in adhesion molecules causing hair loss in mice with the bal mutation, linked to a mutation in the desmoglein 3 gene.

This study reported that a Megsin-Cre transgene enables genetic manipulation primarily in skin, forestomach, and esophagus tissues, offering a new tool for studying development and diseases in these areas.

This study in Kitui County, Kenya, identified histopathological lesions due to Cordylobia anthropophaga infestations in dogs, including parasitic granulomas and eosinophilic lymphadenitis, leading to severe health effects such as emaciation and potential death.

This study found that miRNA biogenesis, facilitated by Dicer and Drosha, is crucial for adult hair follicles' growth and regeneration, highlighting their multiple roles during the hair follicle growth cycle.

This study identified a novel KRT86 mutation associated with autosomal dominant monilethrix, expanding understanding of its genetic basis beyond known motifs.

This article provides a protocol for live imaging of C. elegans germline stem cells, highlighting their potential for studying mitosis and other cell processes, but does not report new experimental findings.

This study revealed that during avian skin development, complex tissue architecture results from specific cellular flows and mechanical processes that guide feather bud protrusion and elongation, with distinct differences noted in scale development, where rigidity restricts such transformations.

This case study describes a young woman with a unique syndrome combining lamellar ichthyosis, neuroectodermal and mesodermal defects, and hair with trichoschisis and low sulfur content.

Researchers created a new mouse model for studying scleroderma.

This study generated a Dct-H2BGFP mouse model that allows for effective identification and isolation of melanocytic cells in vivo, facilitating research into their molecular and biological properties.

In this study, Meis1 was found to regulate epidermal homeostasis and act as a proto-oncogenic factor in skin tissues, with differences in expression patterns between normal and tumor cells.

In this study, researchers observed that after mesenchymal cell division in mouse and chicken embryonic skin, elevated migration speed and persistence for 180 minutes contribute to mesenchymal dispersal and preferential recruitment to dermal condensates.

This study found that HOXC13 gene expression was significantly higher during the anagen phase in Angora goats, potentially contributing to the mohair's shiny and silky nature.

This report describes a rare case of scalp kerion due to microsporosis in a Portuguese child, noting the unusual combination with other microsporid features and treatment details.

This case report described a 39-year-old male with 47XXY/46XX mosaic Klinefelter syndrome who presented with common features of the condition and male pattern baldness seen in his family.

This study observed that the hair loss in homozygous rhino mice is associated with widening of the hair canal due to hyperkeratosis, leading to insufficient support for hair anchoring.

This study suggests that seasonal rhythm genes in cashmere goat skin are differentially expressed with changing daylight, potentially affecting hormone transformation and light sensitivity.

This study found that bioelectric and biochemical signaling mechanisms coordinate collective cell movement during chicken feather bud morphogenesis, suggesting a potential new angle for research in skin development and wound healing.
