This review discusses Robertsonian chromosomal translocations and their prevalence in the population, highlighting their association with infertility, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that extracts from the rice variety Bue Bang 3 CMU, particularly the husk and bran, demonstrated antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-androgenic properties, suggesting potential use in treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that deleting all three Tet genes in mice led to shorter hair shafts and altered hair types, with associated changes in gene expression and DNA hydroxymethylation.

This study found that mutations in exon 3 of the hr gene are strongly associated with congenital hypotrichosis in Valle del Belice sheep, suggesting a potential genetic link to the disorder.

This study observed specific expression patterns of three zebrafish estrogen receptor genes during development, highlighting robust co-expression of esr2a and esr2b in primary neuromasts, branchial arches, and other tissues.

This study found that dysregulation of the folliculin-p0071 interaction may lead to changes in cell adhesion and signaling, contributing to conditions like emphysema and renal cell carcinoma.

This study found that the transcription factor Trps1 acts as a novel regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway and early hair follicle progenitors in developing vibrissa follicles in mice.

In this study, miR-218-5p was found to enhance hair shaft growth and positively regulate the Wnt signaling pathway by targeting SFRP2 during skin and hair follicle development.

A new mouse mutation causes skin and hair issues, influenced by another gene.

This study developed a novel method to analyze the effects of COL7A1 mutations using mRNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells, aiding genetic diagnosis and potential therapies for dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.

This study demonstrates that PAD1 and PAD3 are involved in hair follicle differentiation, while PAD1 and PAD2 may play a role in the physiology of sweat glands and arrector pili muscles.

This study found that SFRP2 enhances Wnt3a-mediated β-catenin signaling in human dermal papilla cells, with higher SFRP2 expression in beard cells correlating with increased trichogenicity.

This study found that the p63 transcription factor plays a role in epidermal morphogenesis by regulating Satb1 expression, impacting chromatin architecture and gene expression in epidermal progenitor cells.

This study found that BBS7 is important for Sonic hedgehog signaling activity, which may be crucial for maintaining periodontal ligament homeostasis in occlusal hypofunction.

Lack of TrkC receptor delays hair follicle development.

In this study, researchers identified a novel genetic variant in the NR3C1 gene in a mother and her son that predicts a truncated protein, leading to glucocorticoid resistance syndrome with mild hyperandrogenic features, although no clear genotype-phenotype correlation has been established.

This study found that human trichohyalin has a unique protein sequence potentially contributing to at least three important functions in hair follicle and epidermal cells.

This study created a Wnt3a protein gradient using Multiphoton Microfabrication technology, which improved hair-inductive properties in mouse and human hair dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential applications in hair regeneration research and drug screening.

This study identified seven gene sequences related to Type III Brush Hair formation in Yangtze River Delta white goats, contributing to our understanding of hair growth and follicle cycles.

This study investigated the mechanism responsible for pili torti formation in Björnstad syndrome using a transmission electron microscope, but did not establish a definitive explanation.

This study documents dominant transmission and complete penetrance of uncombable hair syndrome in a family, despite the father lacking visible abnormalities.

This study suggests that keratin 15 and Id3 proteins play distinct roles in epithelial and dermal cell activities during the regeneration stages of rat vibrissae hair follicles.

This study found that mutations in type I IRS keratin genes disrupt keratin protein complexes in mice, suggesting crucial roles for these genes in proper hair coat formation.

This study identified novel mutations in the DSG4 gene in a Japanese patient with monilethrix, affecting protein interactions that may disrupt hair shaft structure.

This study describes a family where a TP63 mutation was linked with prominent alopecia and mild ectodermal dysplasia features.

This study found that trichothiodystrophy can be diagnosed prenatally in the second trimester using an endoscopically-guided fetal eyebrow biopsy, with sulfur content analysis being the most reliable test.

This study identifies two new proteins, CCDC22 and CCDC93, essential for root and root hair growth in Arabidopsis, and demonstrates their genetic link to a VTI13-dependent vacuolar trafficking pathway.

Human hair keratin has a 40% α-helix structure that changes to a random coil in 8 M urea.

In this study, researchers developed a photocurable polyurethane resin for 3D printing, creating high-resolution elastomeric microwell arrays that effectively promote uniform spheroid formation and growth of A549 cells, which could aid in disease modeling and organoid research.
