A specific gene variant is linked to heart disease, increased heart muscle, curly hair, and thick skin on palms and soles.
research A Mosaic Hotspot PLCD1 Variant, Detectable in Blood‐Derived DNA , Associated With Nevus Trichilemmocysticus
A rare genetic variant linked to skin cysts was found in blood DNA, suggesting its role in cyst formation.
research Compound Heterozygous Mutations in Forkhead Box N1 (FOXN1) Lead to a Severe Immunodeficiency but Normal Hair and Nail Development in Patients
Mutations in the FOXN1 gene cause severe immune issues but don't affect hair and nails.
research 478 Mutation-specific siRNA Knockdown of GJB2 − Potential gene therapy for Keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness Syndrome
Targeted siRNA therapy may be a promising treatment for KID syndrome by reducing mutant gene expression and improving cell communication.
research Decision letter: Loss of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b does not affect epidermal homeostasis but promotes squamous transformation through PPAR-γ
Loss of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b increases aggressive skin tumors by affecting PPAR-γ.
