The researchers reported two brothers with a new variant of X-linked trichothiodystrophy associated with an RNF113A gene mutation, highlighting features such as intellectual disability and growth failure, but without previously reported endocrinological or genital abnormalities, underlining the importance of genetic counseling for such variants.

This study investigated NNAT expression in embryonic and postnatal rat tissues, finding its localization in both undifferentiated and differentiated cells across tissues such as the pancreas, tongue, and testis.

This study found that dysregulation of the folliculin-p0071 interaction may lead to changes in cell adhesion and signaling, contributing to conditions like emphysema and renal cell carcinoma.

In this study, upper-bulge epidermal stem cells in mouse hair follicles were shown to play a role in forming tactile sensory units by creating an extracellular matrix that supports nerve interactions.

This study demonstrated that dermal papilla cells are molecularly distinct from fibroblasts and identified many novel molecules, including a new member of the CTGF protein family.

This study suggests that typical skin lesions in Carney complex may originate from the pro-melanogenic activity of a specific dermal fibroblast population influenced by PKA signaling.

This study suggests that the cell membrane complex in hair cuticles contains hydrophilic regions with disulfide bonds allowing polymer uptake and hydrophobic lamella-like lipid layers.

This study used fibre optic confocal imaging to visualize subsurface structures in live mouse skin, revealing cellular details and blood vessel networks that dynamic events could be studied in vivo.

This study demonstrated that mice lacking skin-specific RXRalpha expression developed hair follicle degeneration and alopecia, indicating the importance of RXRalpha/VDR heterodimers in maintaining hair follicle homeostasis.

In this study, researchers observed that inhibiting myosin light chain kinase in hair cells reduced stiffness and oscillation in bullfrog hair bundles and increased hearing thresholds in mice.

In this study, researchers found that human fingerprint ridges are formed through a modified hair follicle developmental process and spatial patterns influenced by specific signaling pathways.

This study suggests that structural changes in the TRPV3 channel are linked to severe skin conditions like Olmsted syndrome, with differences observed between heat-activated and resting states.

In this study, researchers identified two novel peptidylarginine deiminases from treated rat keratinocytes, both showing enzyme activity with PAD‐R11 reflecting a characteristic of epidermal enzymes.

A rare skin condition causes red and dark patches on the face and limbs.

In this study, researchers observed that spiral ganglion neurites created more branched networks near FGF-1-coupled beads compared to control beads, highlighting FGF-1's role in hair cell innervation development.

This study observed that retinoic acid biosynthesis and signaling in hair follicles have a spatial and temporal regulation linked to distinct stages of the hair cycle in mice.

This study suggests that hair loss disorders like Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis may result from mutations that disrupt post-transcriptional regulation of HR protein expression by PCPB2 interacting with Hr mRNA.

This study reports that in mice, CaR plays a critical role in sensing the epidermal Ca2+ gradient, influencing keratinocyte differentiation, and affecting epidermal development.

In this study, researchers localized arginine and citrulline in rat hair follicles and found that arginine is abundant in trichohyalin droplets, while citrulline predominantly accumulates in the hardened inner sheath and medulla.

In this study, researchers explored ubiquitination patterns in healthy human skin and CYLD cutaneous syndrome tumors, identifying extensive ubiquitin sites and differential protein ubiquitination linked to tumor pathology, highlighting the role of ubiquitination in tissue architecture and disease mechanisms.

This study found that mu-crystallin gene expression in mouse skin is highest during the anagen phase of hair development, suggesting its possible role in hair follicle growth.

This study shows that microdiffraction experiments reveal structural layers in keratinous tissues, each with different keratin types, potentially explaining their dual role as mechanical support and chemical barriers.

This study found that RALF peptides, through liquid-liquid phase separation, form condensates with pectin and other proteins, playing a pivotal role in plant development and stress response regulation.

This research found that a monoclonal antibody (MAb 17) specifically reacts with certain subunits of trichocyte keratin in rats, and discovered that trichocyte keratin expression in hair and whiskers begins at different embryonic stages.

This study observed that Nod factor stimulation in alfalfa roots leads to dynamic changes in the cytoskeleton and endoplasmic reticulum, suggesting a mechanism for root hair growth changes.

Retinoic acid causes gland formation instead of hair in mouse skin by altering epidermal and dermal interactions.

This article reviews the multifunctional roles of calreticulin outside the ER and highlights its impact on wound healing in animal models, but reports no new clinical results.

This study concluded that the frizzy mutation in mice is linked to a T to A transversion in Prss8 and is orthologous to the 'hairless' mutation in rats.

This study identified two evolutionarily conserved ultra-high-sulfur keratin proteins in human and sheep hair follicles, which are specifically expressed in the hair cuticle during the late stages of fiber development.
