In this study, researchers observed distinct morphological differences in hair follicles of mutant mouse genotypes, influenced by the expression levels of keratin2-6g, which is essential for proper hair follicle development.

This study analyzed RNA-seq data from various animal breeds and suggested that similar molecular mechanisms may underlie wool fineness in different sheep breeds. Researchers identified 32 candidate genes related to hair follicle regulation, providing insights for molecular breeding and evolutionary studies.

This study examined how melatonin affects cashmere growth in goats, identifying potential molecular targets like ATP6V0A4, DLX3, and SMOC2 for enhancing cashmere yield and quality.

This case report presents a rare subtype of hypomyelinating leukodystrophy linked to a PYCR2 gene mutation, emphasizing exome sequencing's value in diagnosing undiagnosed childhood HLDs with atypical symptoms.

This study used transcriptome analysis to explore the genetic mechanisms behind the development and seasonal variation of nuptial pads in R. chensinensis, identifying key genes and processes that suggest the pads' development involves complex regulatory pathways, particularly those related to cell cycle and hormone synthesis.

This study reported species and demographic differences in alopecia rates among macaques, with the highest rates in pigtail macaques and noted age-related improvements in alopecia scores.

In this study, researchers explored ear pinna development in two rodent species and identified that BMP5 plays a crucial role in chondroblast proliferation but not in their initial specification, with implications for understanding tissue differentiation and potential impacts on reconstructive surgery.

Melatonin affects when and how certain genes work during the different stages of hair growth in goats.

This study developed molecular signatures for dermal papilla cells and their niche, uncovering novel signaling regulators and genes linked to hair disorders, which may inform future hair development research.

This study describes a rare form of congenital alopecia in domestic short hair cats, characterized by hair shaft defects and follicular dystrophy similar to those seen in certain mutant mouse strains.

Defective protein folding due to a mutation is key in ANE syndrome.

This study identified a novel mutation in the coproporphyrinogen oxidase gene, contributing to hereditary coproporphyria in a family, with decreased enzyme activity observed in the affected members.

Hairless mice lack fur due to a genetic mutation affecting skin response, not hormone issues.

This study found that the AMHR2-482A>G gene polymorphism is associated with an increased likelihood of polycystic ovary syndrome and altered hormone levels in affected women.

In this case study, a miniature donkey with multisystemic eosinophilic epitheliotropic disease was euthanized due to laminitis despite treatment for pruritus, inappetence, hypertriglyceridemia, and alopecia.

This study identifies iRhom2 as a crucial regulator of hair follicle differentiation, showing that the iRhom2Uncv mutation leads to dysplasia and reduced TACE maturation, resulting in a hairless phenotype in mice.

In studying wild meerkats, researchers observed that matriarchs with high androgen levels during late gestation exhibited increased dominance and aggression, affecting both their behavior and their offspring's aggression.

In this case report, a novel missense mutation c.1360G>C (p.Ala454Pro) in the MBTPS2 gene was identified in a boy with typical IFAP syndrome and severe atopic features, although no phenotype/genotype correlation was established.

This study reports that BMP2 expression in goat skin is higher during late telogen and early anagen phases, indicating a potential role in hair follicle regeneration.

This report documents a rare case of familial eyelash trichomegaly and synophrys in three siblings, with one sister also having loose anagen hair syndrome, an unreported association.

This study demonstrated how cellular flows and tissue mechanics guide the topological transformations in avian skin, essential for feather follicle development from scales.

This study showed that a 2-kilobase upstream region of the mouse keratin 17 gene enables targeted GFP expression in major epithelial appendages of transgenic mice, indicating sonic hedgehog's involvement in its regulation.

This study using an apertureless scanning near-field optical microscope found that dye restricted to hair's periphery remains mainly on the surface and in the endocuticle.

This study provides new insights into the identification and expression patterns of miRNAs in wool follicles, which could improve understanding of wool follicle development in sheep.

This study highlights the various bacterial, fungal, and viral threats to honeybee colonies, such as American Foulbrood and Deformed Wing Virus, and discusses management strategies like Integrated Pest Management and genetic resistance to preserve honeybee populations and their crucial pollination roles.

This study describes a case of cyclic thrombocytopenia where a novel MPL gene mutation may contribute to the disease, with gene expression changes in platelet and neutrophil genes preceding platelet count fluctuations.

This case report highlights a patient with Ayme-Gripp syndrome, revealing an association between the syndrome and hypothyroidism, and underscores the importance of considering rare genetic conditions in differential diagnoses of endocrinopathies.

This study found that mutations in phosphorylation sites on the PIN3 protein disrupt its phosphorylation and subcellular trafficking, affecting auxin transport and root growth in a cell-type-specific manner.

This report identified longitudinal grooves in the hair shafts of four children, diagnosing them with uncombable-hair syndrome.

This review discusses the expression patterns and biochemical roles of Msx and Dlx genes during development but does not present new research findings.
