This study found that neurotrophin-4 regulates Cav3.2 T-current expression in D-hair neurons via TrkB receptor activation, highlighting its role in mechanosensitive function.

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 study found that the TLR3 L412F genetic variant is associated with severe viral infections, especially CMV, and immune dysfunction in a subgroup of chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis patients.

This study identified a recurrent mutation in the endothelin receptor type A associated with mandibulofacial dysostosis with alopecia, and proposed a mechanism involving increased ligand affinity due to structural changes.

This study found that a mutation in the Tmprss6 gene disrupts hepcidin regulation, leading to iron deficiency and alopecia in mice, highlighting TMPRSS6's vital role in iron absorption.

This study found a novel R430Q gene mutation in hHb6, which may be linked to the hereditary hair disorder monilethrix in the examined family.

This study found that a heterozygous missense mutation in ATR is associated with a hereditary cancer syndrome, manifested by oropharyngeal cancer and other anomalies, in an autosomal-dominant inheritance pattern across a five-generation family.

This study identified a novel V26M mutation in the vitamin D receptor as the cause of hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets in a patient, characterized by severe rickets and an unusual pattern of alopecia.

This study suggests that activating AMPK to phosphorylate ZDHHC13 may enhance MC1R function and reduce melanoma risk in individuals with red hair.

A specific gene mutation is linked to a hereditary form of dystonia that responds well to certain medications.

This study identified intramembrane proteolysis as a key feature of Astrotactin2 maturation, providing insights into its role in planar cell polarity hair patterning.

This study identified a new clinical variant of adult adrenomyeloneuropathy characterized by hypoplasia and agenesis of the corpus callosum, associated with a novel ABCD1 gene mutation.

This study identified a genetic locus associated with rhabdomyosarcoma susceptibility in mice and found that specific differentiation markers are linked to the regression of basal cell carcinoma.

This article presents a family case study of dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis linked to a specific KRT14 gene variant, detailing symptoms and stressing the importance of molecular diagnosis for management.

In this study, the authors identified a role for hair follicles in regulating the formation and sympathetic innervation of arrector pili muscles, influencing hair follicle stem cell activity and potentially explaining hair loss associated with beta-blockers and androgenic alopecia.

In this study, Trf1 genetic deletion in mice, including those with cancer-prone mutations, was shown to not affect overall viability and cause only mild effects, while being necessary for tumor formation, suggesting a potential therapeutic window for Trf1 as an anti-cancer target.

This study reported that NRP2 expression in melanocytes and melanocyte stem cells is linked to migration inhibition and potentially melanoma progression, suggesting its role as a target for understanding melanoma and hair follicle biology.

This study found that mimicking the XPD point mutation in mice resulted in trichothiodystrophy-like symptoms, supporting the role of basal transcription and DNA repair defects in the disease.

This study found that Musashi-2 regulates mRNA targets to restrict epithelial cell migration, revealing a key function of Msi2 beyond its known role in promoting cell growth.

The study found that severe insulin resistance and premature diabetes are common in patients with PCNT genetic defects, primarily affecting those over four years old, while not impacting early insulin signaling in adipocytes.

This study reported the first case of a NIPAL4 c.527C>A mutation in Romanian patients with autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis, finding that NIPAL4 mutations are more common than TGM1 mutations in this population.

Alpha-MSH affects mitochondrial function, and MC1R mutations may increase skin aging.

This study identified a novel heterozygous missense mutation in the hHb3 gene associated with monilethrix, highlighting its role in this hair disorder.

This study reported that the NUDT15 R139C genetic variant was significantly associated with thiopurine-induced leukocytopenia in Japanese inflammatory bowel disease patients, independent of 6-thioguanine nucleotide levels.

This study found that Malt1, particularly its protease activity, plays a crucial role in maintaining Treg cell function and homeostasis, with its inactivation leading to autoimmune diseases and altered immune responses in mice.

The AR gene is linked to male-pattern baldness, TNFSF4 to heart disease, SLC19A3 to BBGD, MCT8 to a syndrome, and segmental duplications to genetic variation.

This case report identifies a novel maternally inherited MBTPS2 variant associated with an expanded phenotypic spectrum of BRESHECK syndrome, including cytopenias, bone marrow fibrosis, and chronic diarrhea.

This review compiles current research on the role of long non-coding RNAs in regulating muscle growth and regeneration processes, particularly their influence on Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers found that mitochondrial complex I plays a crucial role in regulating innate immunity and bone remodeling, with Ndufs4 deletion causing systemic inflammation and osteopetrosis through various metabolic shifts and cellular mechanisms.
