In this study, deleting the gene Mettl3 in mouse epidermal progenitors resulted in impaired epithelial development and self-renewal, highlighting m⁶A's crucial role in regulating chromatin modifiers and maintaining normal epithelial tissue function.

This study found that ablation of Tet2/Tet3 genes in skin epithelial cells altered hair shape and length, leading to hair loss, by affecting chromatin accessibility and gene expression related to hair follicle regulation.

This review discusses recent molecular biology advances in the human phenol sulfotransferase gene family and reports no new results; the authors highlight its relevance for studies of endogenous and xenobiotic metabolism.

This paper offers detailed tables of genotypic and phenotypic data on horses, including markers, variants, and haplotypes, but reports no new research results.

This case report presents the first Russian patient with Meier-Gorlin syndrome 5, expanding clinical understanding through the identification of two novel CDC6 gene variants.

This review highlights the potential for using the Y chromosome in epigenetic analyses to better understand male-specific aging and disease mechanisms.

This study reports a novel TRbeta gene mutation associated with resistance to thyroid hormone syndrome, which may contribute to various forms of alopecia in the affected family members.

This study identified key genes and pathways related to wool follicle development in coarse wool lambs, suggesting epigenetic factors may influence wool sheep domestication and breeding.

In this study, researchers found that the prevalent Glu 410 Lys mutation in hHb6 and a new Glu 403 Lys mutation in hHb1 are linked to monilethrix, suggesting a mutational hotspot in type II hair keratins.

This report describes a boy with ectodermal dysplasias who was genetically diagnosed due to newly discovered TSPEAR gene variants, which have now been associated with this condition.
