This study describes a family with loose anagen hair syndrome associated with macular dystrophy, suggesting this combination may represent a new disease entity among ectodermal dysplasias.

This study found that circ 0020938 suppresses hair follicle stem cell proliferation by interacting with the miR-142-5p/DSG4 axis, which aids in the hair follicle cycle's proper progression.

In this study, researchers analyzed the skin proteome of Alpine Merino sheep to identify proteins and pathways related to wool fiber diameter, finding that cyclic adenosine monophosphate and certain signaling pathways may play a role in this trait.

This study identified a novel KRT86 mutation associated with autosomal dominant monilethrix, expanding understanding of its genetic basis beyond known motifs.

This study found that specific SNPs in the CXCL1 and CXCL2 genes may be associated with increased susceptibility to alopecia areata in the Korean population.

In this study, the rs4541843 G > A variant was found to be significantly associated with increased risk and severity of alopecia areata, as well as elevated expression of hsa-miR-182-5p, suggesting their potential as molecular markers for diagnosis and severity assessment.

This study found that acellular dermal matrix scaffolds may facilitate full-thickness skin wound healing by promoting a pro-regenerative immune response through M2 macrophage polarization via the Lamtor1 pathway.

This study found that m6A-circHECA enhances the differentiation of stem cells into hair follicle lineages in cashmere goats by sequestering miR-449a-5p, boosting LEF1 gene expression, and activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

This study discovered that lambs with coarse, ancestral-like wool in a population of modern fine wool sheep exhibited overexpression of the SOSTDC1 gene, linked to epigenetic changes, which helps understand the development and diversification of wool types in sheep breeding.

This study demonstrates that Sox11 and Sox4 are crucial for activating embryonic-like programs during wound healing, with Sox11 overexpression impairing skin differentiation and promoting genes linked to embryonic epidermis.

In their study, Tim Spector and colleagues identified a new genetic association at chromosome 20p11.22 with male-pattern baldness, confirmed by the increased risk when combined with a known androgen receptor gene variant.

This study analyzed the genetics of the patchiness phenotype in New Zealand rabbits and found that the gene KRT82, with identified SNPs in its promoter, may serve as a potential biomarker for breeding these rabbits.

This study identified novel genetic associations with skin phenotypes such as age-spots, freckles, and hair characteristics in Japanese women, providing insights into the genetic basis of these traits.

This study reviews the role of the zinc finger protein CXXC5 in cellular signaling and its implications for cancer, discussing how its dysregulation is linked to various physiological and pathological processes, as well as potential therapies targeting CXXC5.

This study found that the Gsdma3 gene is necessary for normal hair follicle differentiation in mice, with its mutation leading to progressive hair loss and defects in hair structure.

This study found that polymorphisms in the KAP8.2 gene in Chinese Inner Mongolia cashmere goats are associated with variations in cashmere fibre diameter, suggesting its potential as a molecular marker for this trait.

The Celsr1 gene is crucial for normal hair patterning in mice.

This case report describes a rare occurrence of ectodermal dysplasia features in a 14-year-old with MBTPS1 gene variants, expanding the known spectrum of related disorders.

This study found that PRC2 plays a non-instructive role in adult hair follicle stem cells, with its loss not affecting quiescence or cell identity, despite upregulation of genes linked to activation.

In this study, researchers identified a cluster of hair-specific keratin-associated protein genes within the 21q22.3 region, revealing a novel transcription mechanism involving TSPEAR/C21orf29 that may bypass typical transcriptional termination sites.
