This study found that increased metastatic ability in colorectal cancer in a rat model was linked to changes in expression of multiple genes, including TGF-beta, PDGFb, and Rho B.

This review highlights recent genetic research advancements in understanding hereditary hair diseases but reports no new study results, emphasizing the identification of genes related to both monogenic and polygenic hair disorders.

This study found that mutations in the Sgk3 gene cause defective hair follicle development and altered hair cycling in mice, with variable phenotypic outcomes depending on different dysfunction patterns of the SGK3 protein.

This review discusses advancements in understanding hair cycle and inflammatory alopecias, proposing a standard classification and tiered treatment recommendations, but reports no clinical results.

This study compiled an archive of 684 genes associated with monogenic hair disorders, identifying previously unrecognized components of Hippo signaling and proposing a new biologically-grounded disease taxonomy.

The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.

Using minoxidil and tretinoin on the skin, along with oral vitamin D, improved hair thickness and density in two girls with woolly hair.

This review discusses the formation and structure of the cornified cell envelope in the epidermis, highlighting biochemical pathways and genetic factors, but presents no new experimental results.

This study reports the first familial case of alopecia linked to a novel homozygous variant in the DSP gene, which did not coincide with heart abnormalities despite prior associations.

In this study, the researchers observed that inducing and then withdrawing β-catenin expression in a bigenic mouse model caused reversible changes in skin morphology, indicating dependence on β-catenin signaling.

This article provides a diagnostic guide for clinicians to differentiate between various hair shaft disorders by using a structured question-by-question approach but does not report new clinical findings.

This case report describes a 35-year-old woman with diffuse partial woolly hair occurring alongside epidermolysis bullosa with mottled pigmentation.

Genetic mutations cause various hair diseases, and whole genome sequencing may reveal more about these conditions.

The document concludes that the skin is a complex organ providing protection, sensation, and healing, with challenges in treating conditions like itchiness.

This study constructed a single-cell atlas of hair follicle cells from yaks and taurine cattle, revealing that differences in WNT signaling within dermal papilla cells may be key to the yak's adaptation to cold environments on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

This study found that keratin hydrolyzed, egg yolk lecithin, and fish collagen peptide promoted β-catenin nuclear translocation and increased gene expression related to hair regeneration in canine and cat skin cell lines, suggesting these nutrients may help improve hair regeneration in pets.

This study identified a novel bi-allelic missense variant in the DSC3 gene linked to severe Hypotrichosis with Recurrent Skin Vesicles in a Saudi child, supporting its role in the condition.

This thesis found that desmoplakin mutations in cardiocutaneous syndrome are linked to dose-dependent disease severity and identified mechanisms by which KLHL24 mutations cause cardiomyopathy, with rescue experiments successfully preventing this phenotype in patient-derived heart tissues.

This genetic study identified a potential interval for the Marie Unna hypotrichosis gene but found no mutations in the nearby hr gene, suggesting its involvement remains unconfirmed.

This study found that zebrafish and stickleback fish use similar genetic programs for tooth regeneration, despite differences in their dental structures.

This report details a case of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa in a 37-year-old male with a recessive mutation in the CLO7A1 gene, affecting type VII collagen.

This study found that knock-down of keratin 15 in various cell lines affected cell spreading, morphology, migration, differentiation, and proliferation, suggesting its role in maintaining the stem cell nature of keratinocytes.
