research Skin-specific regulation of SREBP processing and lipid biosynthesis by glycerol kinase 5
A gene called Gk5 controls lipid production in the skin and affects hair growth.
research A simple method using ex vivo culture of hair follicle tissue to investigate intrinsic circadian characteristics in humans
Researchers developed a way to study human body clocks using hair tissue, which works similarly in both healthy and dementia patients.
research Loss‐of‐function of Endothelin receptor type A results in Oro‐Oto‐Cardiac syndrome
A mutation in the EDNRA gene causes Oro-Oto-Cardiac syndrome, affecting face and heart development.
research Polymorphisms and association of FAT1 gene with wool quality traits in Chinese Merino sheep
The FAT1 gene and its variations can help improve wool quality in Chinese Merino sheep through selective breeding.
research Cardiac biopsy in myocarditis
Some people have a genetic variation that makes them less effective at breaking down drugs.
research ANALYSIS OF CTLA 4 GENE +49A/G AND CT60 A/G POLYMORPHISMS IN ALOPECIA AREATA PATIENTS
CT60 polymorphism might increase the risk of Alopecia Areata.
research Alopecia areata susceptibility variant identified by MHC risk haplotype sequencing reproduces symptomatic patched hair loss in mice
A gene variant causes patched hair loss in mice, similar to alopecia areata in humans.
research Association of insulin-like growth factor 2 Apa1 A820G gene (rs680) polymorphism with polycystic ovarian syndrome
A certain gene variation is linked to a higher risk of polycystic ovarian syndrome in South Indian women.
research 14. Wound Healing; Cutaneous Therapy; Hair
A device was made in 2008 to measure hair loss severity. Other findings include: frizzy mutation in mice isn't related to Fgfr2, C/EBPx marks preadipocytes, Cyclosporin A speeds up hair growth in mice, blocking plasmin and metalloproteinases hinders healing, hyperbaric oxygen helps ischemic wound healing, amniotic membranes heal wounds better than polyurethane foam, rhVEGF165 from a fibrin matrix improves tissue flap viability and induces VEGF-R2 expression, and bFGF enhances wound healing and reduces scarring in rabbits.
research Phenotypic Diversity and Mutation Spectrum in Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy
Different harmful mutations in the CDH3 gene cause HJMD, but symptoms vary among individuals.
research Hair Shaft Abnormalities – Clues to Diagnosis and Treatment
Hair problems can be caused by genetics or the environment, and treatment should focus on the cause and reducing hair damage.
research The Molecular Basis of Androgen Insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, affecting sexual development.
research Analysis of gene expression patterns and levels in maize hybrids and their parents
Maize hybrids show better early growth due to complex gene interactions from their parent strains.
research Novel Vitamin D Receptor Mutations in Hereditary Vitamin D Resistant Rickets in Chinese
New mutations in the VDR gene cause vitamin D-resistant rickets without hair loss.
research What may be the markers of the male equivalent of polycystic ovary syndrome?
Some men with early hair loss may have a condition similar to PCOS in women.
research Polymorphisms in androgen and estrogen receptor genes: effects on male aging
Changes in testosterone and estrogen receptor genes can affect how men age, influencing body fat, hair patterns, and possibly leading to skin disorders.
research β-catenin Activity in the Dermal Papilla Regulates Morphogenesis and Regeneration of Hair
β-catenin in the dermal papilla is crucial for normal hair growth and repair.
research ATP-competitive mTOR kinase inhibitors delay plant growth by triggering early differentiation of meristematic cells but no developmental patterning change
Certain inhibitors slow down plant growth by causing early cell specialization without changing the cell development pattern.
research Keratin disorders: from gene to therapy
New treatments targeting specific genes show promise for treating keratin disorders.
research Hunting the genes in male‐pattern alopecia: how important are they, how close are we and what will they tell us?
Genes play a significant role in male-pattern baldness, and understanding them could lead to new treatments and insights into related health issues.
research Prevalence of CYP21 mutations and IRS1 variant among women with polycystic ovary syndrome and adrenal androgen excess
Some women with PCOS have CYP21 mutations and IRS1 variants, but these genetic factors are not major contributors to PCOS.
research Copy number variation regions in Nellore cattle: Evidences of environment adaptation
Nellore cattle have genetic variations linked to their adaptation to tropical environments.
research A variant of the glucocorticoid receptor gene is not associated with adrenal androgen excess in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
The N363S gene variant does not cause higher adrenal androgen levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research THERAPEUTIC HOTLINE: Genetic variations in the androgen receptor gene and finasteride response in women with androgenetic alopecia mediated by epigenetics
Women with greater androgen sensitivity respond better to finasteride for hair loss.
research Variant 1859G→A (Arg620Gln) of the “Hairless” Gene: Absence of Association with Papular Atrichia or Androgenetic Alopecia
Haplogroup X found in Altaian population supports Amerindian origin.
