research 312 CRISPR/Cas9-based targeted genome editing for correction of recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa using iPS cells
The research showed that CRISPR/Cas9 can fix mutations causing a skin disease in stem cells, which then improved skin grafts in mice, but more work on safety and efficiency is needed.
research Gain‐of‐function variants in the ODC1 gene cause a syndromic neurodevelopmental disorder associated with macrocephaly, alopecia, dysmorphic features, and neuroimaging abnormalities
ODC1 gene mutations cause a neurodevelopmental disorder with large head size, hair loss, and facial abnormalities.
research S3507 GI Bleed Leading to Discovery of Hereditary Hemochromatosis
Early diagnosis and treatment of hereditary hemochromatosis can prevent serious complications.
research Mutations in the Desmoglein 4 Gene Are Associated with Monilethrix-like Congenital Hypotrichosis
Mutations in the DSG4 gene can cause a rare hair disorder similar to monilethrix.
research Early onset and novel features in a spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy patient with a 68 CAG repeat
A patient with a larger than usual genetic mutation had a broader range of symptoms for a muscle disease.
research 924 Efficient genome editing using CRISPR/Cas9 ribonucleoprotein approach in iPS cells for recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa
Researchers fixed gene mutations causing a skin disease in stem cells, which then improved skin grafts in mice.
research Author response: Loss of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b does not affect epidermal homeostasis but promotes squamous transformation through PPAR-γ
Loss of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b leads to more aggressive skin tumors, but blocking PPAR-γ can reduce this effect.
research Intermolecular NH2-/Carboxyl-terminal Interactions in Androgen Receptor Dimerization Revealed by Mutations That Cause Androgen Insensitivity
Mutations at Val-889 and Arg-752 disrupt key interactions in the androgen receptor, affecting its function.
research 8507 Misdiagnosis of Graves’ and RAI Treatment in Patient with THRB Gene Mutation
Misdiagnosis led to unnecessary treatment due to a genetic mutation affecting thyroid hormone resistance.
research Keratins 6, 16, and 17 in Health and Disease: A Summary of Recent Findings
Keratins 6, 16, and 17 increase in damaged or diseased skin and may help diagnose skin issues.
research Histopathological and Ultrastructural Study of Ectodermal Dysplasia/Skin Fragility Syndrome
The study concluded that PKP1 is essential for skin integrity and hair growth, and its dysfunction causes the symptoms of ectodermal dysplasia/skin fragility syndrome.
research High-confidence cancer patient stratification through multiomics investigation of DNA repair disorders
CEP135 may predict cancer outcomes, and targeting PLK1 could help treat certain sarcomas.
research Molecular Genetics of Keratinization Disorders – What’s New About Ichthyosis
Over 67 genes linked to ichthyosis help improve diagnosis and treatment.
research SUN-332 A Rare Case Of Hereditary 1,25 (OH)2D Resistant Rickets
A rare genetic mutation causes resistance to vitamin D, leading to severe rickets and requires high doses of calcium and vitamin D for management.
research Human ClinicalPhenotype Associated with FOXN1 Mutations
FOXN1 mutations cause severe immunodeficiency, hair loss, nail issues, and thymus defects.
research A case of primary cutaneous natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type, with indolent clinical course: monoclonal expansion of Epstein-Barr virus genome correlating with the terminal aggressive behaviour
The growth of the Epstein-Barr virus in the patient's cells was linked to the worsening of her lymphoma.
research Characterisation, genomic organisation, expression and function of the mEphA1 receptor Tyrosine Kinase
mEphA1 receptor tyrosine kinase is important for skin and hair development and may play a role in certain diseases.
research Hypotrichosis congenita (KRT71 mutation) in Hereford cattle in Uruguay
A KRT71 mutation in Hereford cattle in Uruguay causes thin, curly hair and scaly skin.
research Decision letter: ETS family transcriptional regulators drive chromatin dynamics and malignancy in squamous cell carcinomas
ETS2 drives cancer progression in squamous cell carcinoma and is linked to poor patient outcomes.
research Association of estrogen receptor gene variants (ESR1 and ESR2) with polycystic ovary syndrome in Tunisia
Certain gene variants in estrogen receptors are linked to polycystic ovary syndrome, mainly affecting metabolism, in Tunisian women.
research Netherton Syndrome
Netherton syndrome is a genetic skin disorder causing severe skin issues and requires careful treatment to protect the skin barrier.
research Congenital cataract and slowly progressing facial skin lesions in a 5‐year‐old boy
A 5-year-old boy has Nevus Comedonicus Syndrome, causing skin lesions and a cataract.
research The sheep KAP8-2 gene, a new KAP8 family member that is absent in humans
Sheep have a unique gene, KAP8-2, that humans don't have, which may affect wool properties.
