research Regulation of somatic cell reprogramming through inducible mir-302 expression
Increasing mir-302 turns human hair cells into stem cells by changing gene regulation and demethylation.
research Cryptic Patterning of Avian Skin Confers a Developmental Facility for Loss of Neck Feathering
Birds can lose neck feathers due to a genetic change that increases a gene's activity, helping them adapt to heat.
research The pioneer factor SOX9 competes for epigenetic factors to switch stem cell fates
SOX9 helps determine stem cell roles by interacting with DNA and proteins that control gene activity.
research Recently Identified Forms of Epidermolysis Bullosa
Three new types of a skin blistering disease were found, caused by specific gene mutations.
research Effects of mycorrhizal fungi on plant growth, nutrient absorption and phytohormones levels in tea under shading condition
Mycorrhizal fungi and shading improve tea plant growth and nutrient uptake by changing hormone levels and gene expression.
research Hair Growth Activity of Three Plants of the Polynesian Cosmetopoeia and Their Regulatory Effect on Dermal Papilla Cells
Extracts from three Polynesian plants were found to promote hair growth by affecting cell growth and gene expression related to hair.
research Region-specific reversal of epidermal planar polarity in the rosette fancy mouse
Hair follicles in the back of the rosette fancy mouse have reversed orientations due to a gene mutation.
research Abstracts
The document reports findings on genetic research, including ethical concerns about genome editing, improved diagnosis of mitochondrial mutations, solving inherited eye diseases, confirming gene roles in epilepsy, linking a gene to aneurysms, and identifying genes associated with age-related macular degeneration.
research Uncombable hair syndrome and beyond
Uncombable hair syndrome causes frizzy hair and can affect the nervous system, eyes, and ears, often co-occurring with other hair, skin, nail, and teeth conditions, and is linked to three specific gene mutations.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Hair Loss Caused by Gain-of-Function Mutant TRPV3 Is Associated with Premature Differentiation of Follicular Keratinocytes
A gene mutation causes early keratinocyte maturation leading to hair loss in Olmsted syndrome.
research Characterisation of Ovine KRTAP19-3 and Its Impact on Wool Traits in Chinese Tan Sheep
Specific gene variants affect wool traits in Chinese Tan sheep.
research Mutations in γ-secretase subunit–encoding PSENEN underlie Dowling-Degos disease associated with acne inversa
PSENEN gene mutations can cause both Dowling-Degos disease and acne inversa.
research Functional characterization of soybean strigolactone biosynthesis and signaling genes in Arabidopsis MAX mutants and GmMAX3 in soybean nodulation
GmMAX3b gene in soybeans boosts nodulation and affects hormone levels.
research Alopecia areata susceptibility variant in MHC region impacts expressions of genes contributing to hair keratinization and is involved in hair loss
A gene variant increases the risk of a type of hair loss by affecting hair protein production.
research Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Both gene and non-gene areas of DNA evolved to make some mammals hairless.
research Clinical and genetic investigation of ichthyosis in familial and sporadic cases in south of Tunisia: genotype–phenotype correlation
Different gene mutations cause different types of ichthyosis, with some new mutations found.
research Structural and epistatic regulatory variants cause hallmark white spotting in cattle
Two gene variants cause white spots in cattle.
research The Roles of EDA2R in Ageing and Disease
EDA2R is a key gene linked to ageing and diseases, and targeting it may help treat conditions like hair loss and chronic diseases.
research The Role of BMP7 in the Proliferation of Hu Sheep Dermal Papilla Cells Is Influenced by DNA Methylation
DNA methylation affects BMP7 gene expression, influencing cell growth in Hu sheep.
research Liposome-Based Carriers for CRISPR Genome Editing
Liposomes show promise for delivering CRISPR for gene editing but face challenges like delivery efficiency and safety concerns.
