Different types of skin cells have unique genetic markers that affect how likely they are to spread cancer.
research Etiology and diagnosis of androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss is caused by genetics and hormones, diagnosed through examination and biopsy, and treated with medications or surgery.
research From bedside to bench: regulation of host factors in SARS-CoV-2 infection
The conclusion is that certain genetic factors and blood types may affect COVID-19 severity, but changes in ACE2 and TMPRSS2 genes are not clearly linked to it.

A mother's diet at conception can cause lasting genetic changes in her child.
research Adult polycystic ovary syndrome begins in childhood
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome likely starts in childhood and may be genetic and influenced by early hormone exposure.
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 Sexually dimorphic sail feathers in the Mandarin duck as a model for lifelong developmental modulation
Mandarin duck sail feathers change with seasons due to hormones and genetic regulation.
research Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia: a subtype of lichen planopilaris in African descent?
CCCA and LPP may be related hair loss conditions influenced by genetics and environment, needing early treatment.
research Index
The document is a detailed medical reference on skin and genetic disorders.
research Skin diseases associated with atopic dermatitis
People with atopic dermatitis are more likely to develop other skin conditions due to shared genetics and immune pathways.
research Skin diseases in consequence of endocrine alterations
Hormone imbalances can cause skin diseases, and understanding these links is important for diagnosis and treatment.
research Computational derivation of a molecular framework for hair follicle biology from disease genes
The research provides a gene-based framework for hair biology, highlighting the Hippo pathway's importance and suggesting links between hair disorders, cancer pathways, and the immune system.
research Formation of the cornified envelope
The cornified envelope is crucial for skin's barrier function and involves key proteins and genetic factors.
research Oral Presentations
The document concludes that an experimental drug may help wound healing in Epidermolysis Bullosa, links Hydroa vacciniforme to EBV, discusses diagnosing hair loss disorders, finds many children with eczema have allergies, reviews the safety of a skin medication in children, notes side effects of a Duchenne's treatment, and identifies a marker for pediatric mastocytosis.
research Ichthyosis

research Clinical features, with video documentation, of the original familial lewy body parkinsonism caused by α‐synuclein triplication (Iowa kindred)
The document describes a woman with familial Parkinson's disease due to a genetic mutation, showing severe symptoms and poor response to treatment, and suggests finasteride may help reduce symptoms in Tourette syndrome.
research Ulcerative colitis and total alopecia in a mother and her son
A mother and son both had ulcerative colitis and alopecia, suggesting a genetic link in autoimmune disorders and successful treatment with cyclosporine.
research Structural Abnormalities in the Hair of a Patient with a Novel Ribosomopathy
The patient's hair was thinner and had fewer lipids due to a genetic mutation.
research Frontotemporal dementia with parkinsonism presenting as posterior cortical atrophy
A woman's unique dementia was misdiagnosed, a genetic mutation increases Parkinson's risk with age, and finasteride may help with Tourette syndrome.
research The pathophysiology of polycystic ovary syndrome
Insulin resistance is a key factor in polycystic ovary syndrome, but genetics may also contribute.
research PCOS in adolescents
PCOS in teens is hard to diagnose, linked to genetics and lifestyle, and managed with weight loss and medication.
research Epigenetic control of skin and hair regeneration after wounding
Skin and hair can regenerate after injury due to changes in gene activity, with potential links to how cancer spreads. Future research should focus on how new hair follicles form and the processes that trigger their creation.
