This review discusses biotin and biotinidase deficiencies, their symptoms, and methods of medical management, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study identified heterozygous mutations in the ABCC9 gene as the genetic basis of Cantú syndrome, suggesting the syndrome as a new member of potassium channelopathies.

This study identified mutations in the FGF5 gene as a cause of extreme eyelash growth in Pakistani families, highlighting a potential target for regulating eyelash growth.

This study observed that the vitamin D receptor is crucial for hair follicle formation and altering tumor development in the Wnt signaling pathway, suggesting therapeutic potential for vitamin D analogues in related tumors.

This study identified that Eda-A1 unexpectedly induces placode inhibitors dkk4 and lrp4, indicating the importance of tightly regulated signaling for proper ectodermal organ development.

This review discusses the relationship between skin microbiome changes and conditions such as ageing and skin disease, emphasizing the need for further research, but reports no new findings.

This study found that the zinc finger protein AtZP1 inhibits root hair initiation and elongation in Arabidopsis by suppressing key transcription factors involved in root hair development.

This study reports that expressed mouse type Ia and type IIa trichocyte keratins were successfully assembled into intermediate filaments in vitro, while also suggesting that disulfide bond cross linking enhances their stability.

Mutations in the DSG4 gene cause specific hair and scalp issues.

This study found that type II keratins in proliferating epithelial tissues are phosphorylated at a conserved motif during mitosis and stress, impacting keratin solubilization and reorganization.

The research identified six functional hair keratin genes and four pseudogenes, providing insights into hair formation and gene organization.

This study suggests that congenital atrichia with papular lesions may be more common than previously thought and proposes diagnostic criteria including the observation of hypopigmented whitish streaks on the scalp.

This research found that variations in the KRTAP gene family are likely responsible for the diverse hair phenotypes seen among mammals, influenced by gene repertoire differences, expression, and evolutionary factors.

Olmsted syndrome can be inherited as an autosomal recessive trait due to a rare TRPV3 gene mutation.

This study identified several candidate genes related to wool production traits and adaptation to hot, arid environments in Iranian sheep, highlighting potential targets for future inbreeding programs.
