In this study, the presence of the HPV11-E2 protein in transgenic mice was found to increase and vary the expression of a reporter gene in hair follicle bulge regions.

This article discusses the human KRT72 wild-type allele's role in hair formation and reports no new research findings.

A specific gene mutation causes woolly hair and hair loss.

This study found that laminin-511 is crucial for hair morphogenesis in mice, as it influences primary cilia formation and dermal papilla maintenance through noggin and sonic hedgehog signaling.

In this study, researchers found that RORA directly regulates the expression of the Bnip3 gene, which is crucial for hair follicle stem cell health, using rat HFSCs as a model. They propose that targeting RORA could modulate HFSC status.

This study identified complex regulatory elements and interactions involving the Hr gene and HR protein that are crucial for hair follicle formation and cycling in mammals.

This study found that mutations in type I IRS keratin genes disrupt keratin protein complexes in mice, suggesting crucial roles for these genes in proper hair coat formation.

In this study, two unique mutations in the RBPJ gene were identified and linked to Adams-Oliver syndrome, confirming impaired DNA binding of mutated RBPJ as a factor in this rare genetic disorder.

This study found that BMP receptor IA is crucial for hair progenitor cell differentiation in mice, and its sequential inhibition and activation are necessary to generate a functioning hair shaft.

This study identifies two new proteins, CCDC22 and CCDC93, essential for root and root hair growth in Arabidopsis, and demonstrates their genetic link to a VTI13-dependent vacuolar trafficking pathway.

In this study, researchers confirmed linkage of a form of hair-nail ectodermal dysplasia to chromosome 12 in a Pakistani family, suggesting a possible non-coding mutation in KRTHB5 or a mutation in an unknown gene.

This study found a rare germline mutation in the Birt–Hogg–Dubé gene in a Japanese patient with renal cell carcinoma, suggesting distinct biological features and challenging current renal tumor classifications.

This study identifies a mechanism where dsRNA activates TLR3 to induce RA production, promoting hair follicle regeneration in mice and suggesting a potential role in human tissue regeneration.

This study found that in Arabidopsis, root hair-specific proteins ADF8 and ADF11 are crucial for responding to hormonal signals like auxin and ethylene, which in turn modulate actin filament dynamics and are key for root hair growth under various environmental conditions.

This study suggests that the ANE syndrome mutation in yeast Nop4, analogous to human RBM28, disrupts protein folding and protein-protein interactions, contributing to ribosomal dysfunction.

In this study, researchers at Johns Hopkins University found that Keratin 17 plays a signaling role in cell growth during a wound response by aiding mTOR pathway activation, beyond its structural functions.

In this study, researchers discovered a dominant variant in the ADAM17 gene that causes hypotrichosis with woolly hair, where the mutation leads to hair follicle stem cell exhaustion and abnormal hair follicles, resulting in alopecia.

In this study, researchers identified a novel p.R50X mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene, linked to hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets in two siblings.

This review discusses the roles of the hairless (HR) protein as a corepressor, particularly its impact on RORα-mediated transcriptional repression, and reports no new experimental findings.

This abstract reviews the role of the human KRT 16 wild-type allele in skin and hair development and its association with certain genetic skin disorders, without presenting new findings.

This study observed that mice lacking epidermal HSD11b1 had increased non-histaminergic itch and changes in skin nerve fibers, potentially linked to higher TSLP expression.

This study describes a patient with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets (HVDRR) who, despite having a truncated vitamin D receptor, did not exhibit typical hair or skin abnormalities, suggesting possible compensation via interactions with other proteins.

This case study reports a rare instance of RC11 associated with precocious puberty, severe hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes, suggesting a possible link to 11q-syndrome.

In this study using Angora rabbits, researchers found that the FRZB gene inhibits hair follicle development by modulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, affecting the expression of various genes related to this pathway and altering cell proliferation and apoptosis.

This study found that the WIF1 gene may play a crucial role in hair follicle growth and development in Angora rabbits by regulating specific genes and proteins.

This study suggests that folliculin, mutated in Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome, and its partner FNIP1 may play a role in energy and nutrient sensing through the AMPK and mTOR pathways.

This study found that TRM21 acts as a positive regulator of flavonoid biosynthesis at the translational level in Arabidopsis, leading to changes in root hair growth and a decrease in flavonoid content when TRM21 is mutated.

This study reports that a novel frameshift mutation in the HTRA1 gene in a CARASIL pedigree led to reduced HTRA1 protein and increased TGF-β1 expression, potentially causing severe CARASIL and peripheral small arterial disease.
