Finasteride side effects in young men may be linked to specific gene variations.
research 8242 A Case of Ayme Gripp Syndrome
Ayme-Gripp Syndrome was confirmed in a woman through genetic testing, highlighting the need to consider rare genetic conditions in diagnoses.
research Exploring the possibility of predicting human head hair greying from DNA using whole-exome and targeted NGS data
Hair greying is mainly influenced by age, with genetics playing a smaller role.
research Developmental origin of polycystic ovary syndrome - a hypothesis
The hypothesis suggests that PCOS may start early in life due to genetic and environmental factors, influencing future reproductive and metabolic problems.
research CYP21A2 Genotypes do not Predict the Severity of Hyperandrogenic Manifestations in the Nonclassical Form of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
The severity of symptoms in nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia is not determined by CYP21A2 gene variations.
research Characterisation of Four New Genes in the Ovine KAP19 Family
Four new genes related to sheep wool were discovered, showing genetic diversity.
research Hepatitis C virus: host, environmental and viral factors promoting spontaneous clearance
Hepatitis C can clear naturally in some people due to strong immune response, genetics, and limited exposure.
research The Case | Bilateral kidney tumors and lung cysts
A man with kidney tumors and lung cysts was diagnosed with Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome and treated successfully, with genetic testing confirming the diagnosis.
research Circulating testosterone and feather-gene expression of receptors and metabolic enzymes in relation to melanin-based colouration in the barn owl
Barn owls with smaller black spots have higher testosterone levels, which might be due to genetic effects on hormone regulation rather than hormone effects on coloration.
research Identification of factors contributing to phenotypic divergence via quantitative image analyses of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with homozygous c.736T>ALIPHmutation
Different hair fiber development might explain why hair loss severity varies in patients with a specific genetic mutation, and treatments that thicken hair could help.
research COVID-19: Understanding Inter-Individual Variability and Implications for Precision Medicine
The conclusion is that individual differences in COVID-19 severity are influenced by factors like age, sex, race, and genetics, which are important for personalized medicine.
research Compilation of a comprehensive gene panel for systematic assessment of genes that govern an individual’s drug responses
Researchers found that most genes affecting drug responses are not fully covered by commercial SNP chips, suggesting the need for more comprehensive tools to optimize drug selection based on genetics.
research The efficacy and safety of valproic acid medications with controlled active ingredient release in adults in real clinical practice from the position of pharmacokinetic and pharmacogenetic approaches
Sustained-release sodium valproate is effective in treating epilepsy, with some side effects influenced by genetics.
research Clinical Snippets
Melanoma risk tools need improvement, certain gene mutations cause skin diseases and could be treated by targeting those mutations, skin wrinkling may relate to lung aging due to genetic factors, and oxidative stress affects hair loss but can be reduced in low oxygen.
research Ectodysplasin research—Where to next?
Future research on ectodysplasin should explore its role in diseases, stem cells, and evolution, and continue developing treatments for genetic disorders like hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.
research Characterization of transport systems for cysteine, lysine, alanine, and leucine in wool follicles of sheep
Sheep wool follicles absorb different amino acids at various rates and locations, which could affect wool growth based on diet and genetics.
research Transcriptomic regulation of seasonal coat color change in hares
Genes related to pigmentation, body rhythms, and behavior change during hares' seasonal coat color transition, with a common genetic mechanism in two hare species.
research A replication study confirmed the EDAR gene to be a major contributor to population differentiation regarding head hair thickness in Asia
The EDAR gene greatly affects hair thickness in Asian populations.
research Loss‐of‐function of Endothelin receptor type A results in Oro‐Oto‐Cardiac syndrome
A mutation in the EDNRA gene causes Oro-Oto-Cardiac syndrome, affecting face and heart development.
research Highlights of Gene and Cell Therapy for Epidermolysis Bullosa and Ichthyosis
Gene and cell therapies are being developed to treat rare skin conditions like epidermolysis bullosa and ichthyosis.
research Deficiency of the human cysteine protease inhibitor cystatin M/E causes hypotrichosis and dry skin
Lack of cystatin M/E causes thin hair and dry skin.
research Admixture in Latin America: Geographic Structure, Phenotypic Diversity and Self-Perception of Ancestry Based on 7,342 Individuals
The study found that in Latin America, ancestry varies by location, influences physical traits, and affects how people perceive their own heritage.
research An epistatic effect of KRT25 on SP6 is involved in curly coat in horses
The genes KRT25 and SP6 affect curly hair in horses, with KRT25 also causing hair loss. If both genes are mutated, the horse gets curly hair and hair loss. KRT25 can hide the effect of SP6.
