This study investigated the identity of Victor Vinnetou as Mbuyisa Makhubu using forensic facial comparison and DNA testing, but the findings were inconclusive, requiring further investigation.

This study demonstrated that genetic markers can predict human ear morphology with moderate to good accuracy, potentially aiding forensic identification in crime scene investigations where traditional DNA matches are unavailable.

This study found that gene-regulatory interactions among parental alleles contribute significantly to heterosis in early stages of maize development, with many differentially expressed genes showing non-additive expression in hybrids.

This study found that a novel missense mutation in the vitamin D receptor caused hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets with alopecia by disrupting protein function, highlighting the importance of DNA binding in hair development.

In this study, researchers found that two dominant haplotypes in the EDA2R/AR intergenic region have likely been shaped by demographic changes and selection during human evolution, particularly notable in African and non-African populations.

This study constructed a comprehensive atlas of prenatal human skin, revealing that innate immune cells, such as macrophages, play a crucial role in skin morphogenesis by interacting with non-immune cells, influencing hair follicle formation and angiogenesis beyond their traditional immune functions.

This article discusses a proposed "Darwinian" model of carcinogenesis and emphasizes that cancer prevention involves more than avoiding mutagens, as gene-environment interactions are complex and non-linear.

In this study, researchers found that caffeine can counteract stress-induced damage in ex vivo human androgenetic alopecia hair follicles, suggesting it may help prevent stress-related hair loss.

In this study, researchers examined chronic hepatitis B patients and found that those undergoing interferon therapy reported higher quality of life than those on non-antiviral or nucleoside/nucleotide analogue treatments, despite potential side effects.

This chapter discusses genetic polymorphisms related to phenotypes that differentiate between populations and reports no new results; it highlights the role of DNA technology in understanding human adaptation history.

This paper describes a case of epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy associated with a novel PLEC mutation and diffuse alopecia, highlighting a potential genetic link that remains uncertain.

This study found that genetic variants in the goat KRTAP22-2 gene are associated with the mean fiber diameter of cashmere in Longdong Cashmere goats, suggesting these variants could serve as molecular markers for improving cashmere traits.

This review examines lesser-known factors contributing to polycystic ovarian syndrome and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for further research into individualized treatment and prevention strategies.

This review discusses the dual role of the TMPRSS2 gene in coronaviral lung infection and prostate cancer, cautioning against TMPRSS2 inhibitors for early prostate cancer due to potential pro-inflammatory effects.

This study reports that newly diagnosed patients with Bachmann-Bupp syndrome exhibit a broader phenotype than previously documented, including late-onset seizures, and suggests a possible universal biochemical mechanism involving elevated ODC activity.

In this study, researchers identified six unique genetic variants of a sheep gene, KRTAP19-3, with specific variants linked to changes in wool fibre traits, such as increased fibre diameter variability, suggesting these genetic differences affect wool characteristics in Chinese Tan sheep.

This review discusses the complex effects of testosterone on the brain, emphasizing sex differences, and reports no clinical results; the authors highlight the inconsistencies in current study findings.

This study reviewed existing literature to demonstrate that thyroid disorders have a significant and underestimated impact on hair loss, highlighting gaps in current knowledge and the need for further research to better diagnose and manage hair disorders linked to thyroid dysfunction.

This case report describes a 21-year-old man diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting the condition's potential to mimic hematological malignancy and the effectiveness of prednisolone in rapid symptom improvement.

This study identified a novel human type I hair keratin, hHa3-II, as an isoform of a previously described hHa3 keratin, with distinct sequence differences indicating separate gene encoding.

This review highlights new perspectives in genomics and epigenomics for skin rejuvenation, comparing innovative strategies like senolytics and DNA repair modulators with classical treatments, and emphasizing the importance of tailoring therapies using individual genomic profiles for personalized anti-ageing approaches.

This study suggests that myotonic dystrophies may qualify as segmental progeroid disorders due to molecular and clinical similarities with typical progeroid syndromes.

This study found no evidence that HDGF expression transforms melanocytes into tumors in a mouse model, although it may play a role in cell differentiation and tumor progression.

This review discusses various topics from the 62nd Annual Montagna Symposium on the Biology of Skin, focusing on the diverse effects of light on skin biology, and reports no new clinical results.

This review summarizes recent findings on the role of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomal microRNAs in skin regeneration and rejuvenation, discussing their potential for treating skin damage and aging, and exploring bioengineering methods to enhance therapeutic effects.

A specific gene mutation causes woolly hair and hair loss.

This review discusses the role of YAP/TAZ proteins in skin cancer physiology and tumorigenesis, and the potential of targeting these proteins in skin cancer treatments, but presents no new experimental findings.

This study identified hsa_circ_0001079 as a potential diagnostic marker for androgenetic alopecia, suggesting it may play a role in the condition by interacting with specific microRNAs.

This study describes a family where a TP63 mutation was linked with prominent alopecia and mild ectodermal dysplasia features.

CaBP1 and CaBP2 are necessary for proper hearing and neurotransmission in the ear's inner hair cells.
