This review summarizes advancements in forensic DNA phenotyping for appearance, ancestry, and age prediction from crime scene samples, reporting no new research findings but highlighting areas needing further research and validation.

This study found that type II keratins in proliferating epithelial tissues are phosphorylated at a conserved motif during mitosis and stress, impacting keratin solubilization and reorganization.

This review evaluates methods to study stem cell division patterns, particularly in the mammary gland, and discusses genetic factors affecting division modalities and their implications for breast cancer, but reports no new results.

The research identified six functional hair keratin genes and four pseudogenes, providing insights into hair formation and gene organization.

This study found that loss-of-function mutations in the HOXC13 gene cause autosomal-recessive pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia, emphasizing its role in hair and nail development.

This study found that trichoscopy can diagnose genetic hair shaft abnormalities without plucking or cutting hair, by visualizing characteristic features in a single session.

This study found that the Dun camouflage color in horses is due to TBX3 expression, which causes uneven pigment deposition, whereas non-dun coat colors result from regulatory mutations affecting TBX3 expression.

This review discusses the evolution of surgical robotics and examines the potential and current limitations of autonomous and intelligent systems in robotic-assisted surgeries.
