In this study, researchers used mRNA sequencing to identify and categorize over 49,000 contigs in goat skin, revealing significant gene activity related to metabolism, cell cycle, and cell division during hair growth.

In this study, researchers performed a genome-wide characterization of the Wnt gene family in domestic donkeys, identifying 19 genes and highlighting their evolutionary conservation among mammals, along with tissue-specific expression patterns potentially linked to reproductive regulation and tissue homeostasis.

In this study, specific genetic polymorphisms in the KRT71 gene were associated with hairless and curly phenotypes in Sphynx and Devon Rex cats.

This study concluded that specific SNPs in the TRPS1 gene significantly alter its protein structure, affecting interactions and contributing to the development of congenital hypertrichosis.

Humans lost body hair relatively recently in evolution.

This study found that normal ALT levels in women of reproductive age are linked with metabolic and androgenic abnormalities, suggesting ALT could be used beyond liver disease diagnoses.

This study found that specific genetic variants of the KAP22-1 gene in Egyptian sheep breeds were significantly associated with wool traits like crimp, staple length, kemp score, and greasy color grade, suggesting their potential use in breeding programs.

In this study, the authors identified the DHRS9 SNP rs72623193 as most significantly associated with response to dutasteride in treating male pattern hair loss, with additional variants potentially contributing.

This study explored the spatial variation of THFD in cashmere goats and identified four genes associated with it, offering insights that could aid in the development of THFD genes for these animals.

This study reported the expression patterns and potential functions of long non-coding RNAs in the hair follicle cycle of yak, with insights into their sequence conservation between yak and cashmere goat.

In this study, variation in the KRTAP15-1 gene in goats was linked to changes in cashmere fibre diameter, with specific variants showing dominant or recessive effects.

This study found no evidence that androgen receptor copy number variation is associated with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting it is unlikely to be a contributing factor.

Genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene mainly causes early-onset hair loss, with maternal inheritance playing a key role.

This study reports that X chromosomes often show greater differentiation between human populations than autosomes, likely due to a mix of demography and selection pressures.

This study suggests that genetic variants in the androgen receptor gene may predict which postmenopausal women with hair loss respond to finasteride therapy.

This study found genetic variations, including de novo variants and copy number variations, that may be associated with phenotypic discordance in monozygotic twins with various clinical conditions.

This study confirms the presence of large structural variations in the genome of Nellore cattle, which may contribute to their environmental adaptation to tropical regions.

In this study, the researchers observed that the evolution of Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens pv. flaccumfaciens, which causes tan spot in Australian mungbeans, is driven by clonal expansion from existing genetic variations, emphasizing the need for informed breeding strategies to manage resistance against this pathogen.

This study found that men without prostate cancer carrying the A-allele of SNP rs1204038 had a 65% higher risk of PSA levels above 3 ng/mL compared to those with the G-allele, increasing referrals for further examination.

This study found that hair dyes significantly affect DNA sequence analysis, with the organic extraction method performing better on hair shafts and the prepFiler kit yielding higher success for follicle-included samples.

This study reports that the completeness of DNA degradation in hair during cornification varies among individuals and affects the success rates of forensic hair DNA analysis.

In this study, researchers used an evolutionary-rate-based method to identify genetic elements associated with reduced hair in mammals, finding a dichotomy between accelerated coding sequences and noncoding regulatory elements influencing hair growth.

This review outlines the biological effects of various placental extracts, noting their reported antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory activities, but highlights that the relationship between these effects and the extracts' specific contents remains unclear.

This study found that ZP4 expression was highest among PCOS patients with regular menstrual cycles, which may be linked to mature follicle presence, but no correlation with clinical indices was observed.

Ducks can get the Rous sarcoma virus if infected shortly after birth, leading to tumors and disease spread.

This analysis of England's National End of Life Care Intelligence Network reports that the initiative improved palliative care using national data, addressing disparities in care especially among the poorest patients and those from non-white ethnicities over 14 years.

This article reviews common hair growth abnormalities in children, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing normal development from potential signs of metabolic disorders and indicates no new clinical results.

Type I and Type II keratin chains can form heterodimers despite sequence differences.

This study highlighted the significance of integrating single-cell RNA sequencing with spatial transcriptomics for improving cell-type identification in human skin, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive cell atlas.

This study found that shorter CAG-repeat lengths in the androgen receptor may be associated with the development of androgen-mediated skin disorders like androgenetic alopecia, acne, and hirsutism in both men and women.
