This study found that human hair keratin genes contain a few simple sequence repeats, with one repeat in the exon of KRT31 and additional repeats in introns, varying in length compared to their orthologues.

In this study, researchers identified an autosomal dominant mutation (E402K) in exon 7 of the KRT86 gene as a cause of Monilethrix in a large family from Turkey.

This study identified Armillaria gallica and Armillaria cepistipes as the most common symbiotic species with Polyporus umbellatus in China, and reported genetic diversity among their genotypes.

This study provides the first draft of the male Asiatic lion's whole genome, revealing low genomic diversity and highlighting conservation concerns.

In this study, researchers found that while the SNP rs6152 is strongly associated with androgenetic alopecia, the GGN triplet repeat is not, suggesting the causative variant is likely a non-coding one.

This study identified trichohyalin as an early differentiation marker in hair follicles, with potential structural roles related to alpha-helical formations, based on the partial characterization of its cDNA in sheep.

This study identified numerous size polymorphisms in the human ultrahigh sulfur KAP4 genes due to intragenic sequence variations, suggesting these polymorphisms may have arisen through deletions and duplications during evolution.

This study identified two key pentapeptide quasi-repeats in human keratin-associated proteins, which are similar to motifs found in sheep wool.

This study found that a lower number of GGC sequences in the androgen receptor gene was associated with better clinical response to finasteride in male androgenetic alopecia patients.

This study suggests that SRD5A2 polymorphisms may increase the risk of acne in individuals with normal serum testosterone levels, particularly in the Chinese population.

This article reviews genetic and phenotypic aspects of androgen insensitivity syndromes, emphasizing the diversity of mutations that complicates molecular screening and the importance of genotype-phenotype correlations.

This paper discusses forensic DNA phenotyping, emphasizing its ability to infer visible traits from biological samples without reference samples, but notes ethical and legal concerns related to its use.

In this study, researchers developed a non-invasive method to distinguish exogen hair from telogen hair on the human scalp, finding that normal exogen hair levels are generally less than seven hairs per cm².

Malassezia species may contribute to hair loss in AGA patients.

This study found that the AR-E211 A allele is associated with a lower risk of both metastatic prostate cancer and androgenetic alopecia in an Australian population.

This study found that the protein OsUEV1B is essential for maintaining phosphate balance in rice, with Pi deficiency leading to its inhibition and causing overaccumulation of phosphate in mutants.

In this study, KRTAP28-1 variants were associated with wool fibre diameter in sheep, suggesting potential as a gene marker for reducing fibre diameter.

The researchers reviewed the status, challenges, and future prospects of CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene-editing technology in livestock breeding, noting its benefits and highlighting concerns about low efficiency in inserting foreign genes and off-target effects.

This study suggests that testosterone therapy in AFAB individuals may modify the methylation of the ESR2 promoter, with changes influenced by factors like total testosterone levels and age.

This review discusses the integration of omics analyses in androgenetic alopecia research, reporting no new clinical results but suggesting that collaborative multi-omics studies may enhance understanding of AGA's pathomechanisms.

This research reports that the polyG fragment within the Hoxc13 protein alters its gene regulatory functions, which could have influenced mammalian hair evolution by affecting pathways related to hair follicle development.

This study sequenced and analyzed the goat skin transcriptome, revealing genes involved in signal transduction and cell communication that are differentially expressed during hair growth phases, providing insights for Cashmere goat breeding.

This study found that, among fertile egg donors, the AR gene CAG polymorphism was associated with differences in antral follicle count but did not impact ovarian response to gonadotrophins.

This review discusses the potential role of androgen receptor CAG repeat polymorphism testing in hypogonadism management for both sexes, but its clinical utility remains unclear and requires further investigation.

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.

This study suggests that longer GGN repeat polymorphisms in the androgen receptor gene are associated with polycystic ovary syndrome in women.

This study reported that CCT oligodeoxynucleotide induced patchy hair loss in male mice with specific genetic traits, suggesting gender and genetic preferences in immune response.

The new chemotherapy combination for advanced lung cancer showed a 35.7% response rate but caused significant side effects.

This study found that certain tandem repeats predict darker hair color across diverse ancestry groups and can contribute to a polygenic score for hair color, independent of SNP variation.

This study utilized a sequence-structure alignment approach to improve the characterization of Class A Rhodopsin GPCR superfamily, including orphan and unclassified receptors, through evolutionary analysis.
