research Complex genetic dependencies among growth and neurological phenotypes in healthy children: Towards deciphering developmental mechanisms
Genetic factors influence growth and brain development in children.
research Immunological aspects and gender bias during respiratory viral infections including novel Coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19): A scoping review
Men are more likely to have severe respiratory viral infections like COVID-19 due to hormonal and genetic differences, while women generally have stronger immune responses.
research Analyzing the role of ACE2, AR, MX1 and TMPRSS2 genetic markers for COVID-19 severity
MX1 and AR genes are linked to milder COVID-19, while TMPRSS2 increases severe risk, especially in women.
research Genetic correlation analysis does not associate male pattern baldness with COVID-19
There's no significant genetic link between male pattern baldness and COVID-19.

Coinheritance of BRCA2 and CYLD genes may lead to new treatment options for certain cancers.
research Large-scale genome-wide meta-analysis of polycystic ovary syndrome suggests shared genetic architecture for different diagnosis criteria
The research found that PCOS has common genetic factors regardless of how it is diagnosed and is linked to metabolic and reproductive issues.
research Clinical-exome sequencing unveils the genetic landscape of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) focusing on lean and obese phenotypes: implications for cost-effective diagnosis and personalized treatment
Early diagnosis and personalized treatment for PCOS are crucial, especially for young women in West Bengal, India.
research Genetic variations associated with response to dutasteride in the treatment of male subjects with androgenetic alopecia
Genetic variations affect dutasteride treatment response for male pattern hair loss.
research Genetics of Vitiligo: A Review
Vitiligo is influenced by genetics and environment, and combining these factors can improve early detection and prevention.
research Clinical-Exome Sequencing Unveils the Genetic Landscape of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) Focusing on Lean and Obese Phenotypes: Implications for Cost-Effective Diagnosis and Personalized Treatment
Young women in West Bengal, India, with PCOS often have estrogen resistance, leptin receptor issues, folate deficiency, T2DM, and acanthosis, commonly linked to obesity.
research What does acne genetics teach us about disease pathogenesis?
Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.
research Genetic basis of polycystic ovary syndrome
The document concludes that PCOS has a strong genetic component, but more research is needed to fully understand the specific genes involved.
research The possible implication of the S250C variant of the autoimmune regulator protein in a patient with autoimmunity and immunodeficiency: in silico analysis suggests a molecular pathogenic mechanism for the variant
The S250C variant in a gene may cause autoimmunity and immunodeficiency by impairing protein function.
