research Identification of Candidate Genes for Min Pig Villi Hair Traits by Genome-Wide Association of Copy Number Variation
Researchers found genes that may explain why some pigs grow winter hair, which could help breed cold-resistant pigs.
research Ichthyosis, Follicular Atrophoderma, and Hypotrichosis Caused by Mutations in ST14 Is Associated with Impaired Profilaggrin Processing
Mutations in the ST14 gene cause skin and hair issues by disrupting important protein processing.
research Isolation and Characterization of Human Repetin, a Member of the Fused Gene Family of the Epidermal Differentiation Complex
Repetin is a protein involved in skin and hair development, binding calcium and compensating for other proteins when needed.
research Propecia-induced spermatogenic failure: a report of two cases
Stopping finasteride improved sperm counts in two men, reducing the need for fertility treatments.
research Exploring the possibility of predicting human head hair greying from DNA using whole-exome and targeted NGS data
Hair greying is mainly influenced by age, with genetics playing a smaller role.
research Lithium alters mitotic progression in stamen hair cells of Tradescantia in a time-dependent and reversible fashion.
Lithium temporarily stops cell division in plant cells, but this can be reversed with certain chemicals.
research Male infertility and genitourinary birth defects: there is more than meets the eye
Male infertility and genitourinary birth defects are often linked to genetic issues.
research Characterization of the Human Hair Shaft Cuticle–Specific Keratin-Associated Protein 10 Family
KRTAP10 proteins help form the hair shaft's tough outer layer by interacting with specific hair keratins.
research Characterization of Bsk mice: I. The Bsk mutation does not involve a recombination of cornea-specific keratin 12 and skin-specific hair keratin genes.
The Bsk mutation doesn't involve keratin gene recombination and its cause is unknown.
research Isochromosome Mosaic Turner Syndrome: A Case Report
A 20-year-old woman with a rare form of Turner syndrome showed improvement with hormonal therapy and needs comprehensive care.
research Evolution and genetic architecture of sex-limited polymorphism in cuckoos
Female cuckoo color differences are linked to their unique genes and help avoid male harassment.
research Direct cellular reprogramming enables development of viral T antigen–driven Merkel cell carcinoma in mice
Scientists made a mouse model of a serious skin cancer by changing skin cells with a virus and a specific gene, which is similar to the disease in humans.
research Two parietal cephaloceles in a female neonate
A baby girl had two brain-related growths removed and is developing normally.
