This study found that the systemic wrinkled skin phenotype in Xiang pigs involves gene expression changes and genetic variations associated with oxidative stress and extracellular matrix components, resembling features seen in Shar-Pei dogs.

This study suggests that targeting the increased expression of SIX1 in systemic sclerosis may be a viable strategy for addressing dermal fibrosis.

This study found a significant association between the IRS-2 gene variant and an increased risk of PCOS, especially in non-obese women in the Chinese population from Taiwan.

ASLAN004 was safe and well-tolerated, supporting further development for treating certain diseases.

This study found that Gnαs and Gnα11 proteins were significantly more expressed in the skin of black sheep compared to white sheep, suggesting their role in coat color regulation.

This study in a Pakistani family identified a novel ST14 gene variant as the likely genetic cause of autosomal recessive ichthyosis with hypotrichosis syndrome.

In this study, women with PCOS who took 12 mg of Astaxanthin daily for 8 weeks showed a reduction in certain inflammatory markers and apoptosis-related genes, suggesting potential benefits for managing PCOS, though effects on symptoms like BMI and hirsutism were not significant.

This source reports that a comprehensive review of LSS gene variant phenotypes enhances understanding of congenital hypotrichosis 14 and could guide more precise genetic counseling and future research into disease mechanisms and potential therapies.

This study suggests that the CXCL8 gene may regulate cashmere fineness in Liaoning cashmere goats, providing new insights into the cellular mechanisms of cashmere growth and quality.

In this study, the researchers identified a PBX1-SIRT1-PARP1 axis that plays a crucial role in reducing senescence and apoptosis in hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells.

This study found that lower expression of Septin4 is significantly associated with worse outcomes in colon cancer, and its interaction with BAX in DOX treatment suggests its potential in targeted therapy.

This study found that overexpressing the 14-3-3σ protein in transgenic mice reduced keratinocyte proliferation and migration, leading to thinner epidermis and fewer hair follicles due to IGF-1 pathway inhibition.

In this study, researchers using Astral—DIA proteomics technology identified 67 differentially expressed proteins in Gansu alpine fine-wool sheep, linking proteins like keratin and MGST3 in pathways to wool fineness regulation, particularly highlighting their association with hair follicle development.

This review examined genetic factors in 46, XY differences/disorders of sex development and found that whole-exome sequencing is more effective than panel sequencing for molecular diagnosis. It identified regional genetic variation and emphasized next-generation sequencing's role in detecting variants related to gonadal and androgen-related genes.

This study found no significant difference in SARS-CoV2 IgG seroconversion rates between patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases treated with targeted immune-modulating therapies and those on conventional systemic treatments.

This study mapped genomic copy number variation in Chinese fine-wool sheep, identifying genes involved in sensory perception, nutrient metabolism, growth, and development, and highlighting significant selection on the RXFP2 gene.

This study found that mutant Cx43 impairs fibroblast function during wound healing and reduces hair follicle cell proliferation, likely contributing to hair growth defects in ODDD patients.

This study analyzed RNA-seq data from various animal breeds and suggested that similar molecular mechanisms may underlie wool fineness in different sheep breeds. Researchers identified 32 candidate genes related to hair follicle regulation, providing insights for molecular breeding and evolutionary studies.

This review summarizes recent research and patents on 17β-HSD3, 17β-HSD5, and 3α-HSD3 inhibitors, suggesting their potential in treating androgen-dependent diseases, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers conducted whole-genome resequencing of eight sheep breeds to identify additional genes associated with wool fineness, revealing 269 genes in fine wool and 319 in coarse wool breeds that are linked to significant traits and pathways.

This study found that Pannexin 3 plays a crucial role in skin development by regulating the transcription factor Epiprofin, affecting keratinocyte differentiation and hair follicle regeneration in mice.

This study reports that high expression of proteins ST14 and TMEFF1 in ovarian cancer correlates with higher tumor malignancy and worse prognosis, and reveals an interaction where ST14 regulates TMEFF1 to promote cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion.

This review focuses on S100A6, a Ca²⁺-binding protein, detailing its role in cell functions, the regulation of its expression, and its potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target in various diseases.

Women's hair has more sulfur, and black hair has more calcium than white hair.

This study found that STAT3 directly inhibited the activity of the sheep FST gene promoter, consequently reducing cell proliferation and promoting a better understanding of hair follicle development mechanisms.

This study observed that mice with a Cx43 mutation exhibited slower and asynchronous hair regrowth with severe cuticle weathering, mimicking aspects of hair phenotype in some ODDD patients.

This study developed an ultrahigh-power sonicator to improve protein extraction from hair shafts, followed by advanced proteomic analysis, identifying 239 differentially expressed proteins in fetal growth restriction cases compared to healthy controls, which were validated as potential biomarkers for perinatal diagnostics.

In this study, elevated mRNA levels for serine-rich ultra high sulfur proteins were observed during active hair growth phases in mice, particularly in the forming hair structures and upper skin layers.

This study reveals that the microRNA-200 family, highly enriched in hair matrix progenitors, restricts sebaceous gland development by inhibiting the SOX9-dependent lipogenic program, highlighting its specific role in epithelial plasticity within hair follicles.

This study found that Eda and activin A regulate Foxi3 expression, which may contribute to the development of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia by affecting Foxi3 activity in ectodermal appendages like hair and teeth.
