research 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 3 deficiency in the Mediterranean population.
A genetic defect causes males in some Mediterranean populations to be born with ambiguous genitalia and develop male traits at puberty.
research Novel compound heterozygous mutations in thedesmoplakingene cause hair shaft abnormalities and culminate in lethal cardiomyopathy
Mutations in the desmoplakin gene can cause hair problems and deadly heart disease.
research 1381 Molecular mechanisms of donor dominance in androgenetic alopecia
Hair pattern in androgenetic alopecia overlaps with scalp and bone demarcations, with distinct gene profiles affecting susceptibility.
research Pseudo Pemphigus Phenotypes in Mice with Inactivated Desmoglein 3
Mice with a mutated Dsg3 gene showed severe symptoms but not the typical blistering of pemphigus vulgaris.
research The Near-Naked Hairless (Hr) Mutation Disrupts Hair Formation but Is Not Due to a Mutation in the Hairless Coding Region
The near-naked hairless mutation causes hair loss but is not due to a mutation in the hairless gene itself.
research cDermo-1 misexpression induces dense dermis, feathers, and scales
cDermo-1 causes dense skin, feathers, and scales in chickens.
research FOXN1 Italian founder mutation in Indian family: Implications in prenatal diagnosis
A rare genetic mutation found in an Indian family can be detected through prenatal screening.
research Defolliculated (Dfl): A Dominant Mouse Mutation Leading to Poor Sebaceous Gland Differentiation and Total Elimination of Pelage Follicles
The Dfl mutation in mice causes poor sebaceous gland function and complete hair loss.
research Biochemical features of primary cells from a pediatric patient with a gain-of-function ODC1 genetic mutation
A new genetic disorder caused by an ODC1 mutation can be treated with DFMO.
