Different STUB1 gene mutations cause varied symptoms in autosomal recessive ataxias.
research Multiple cyclic nucleotide‐gated channels coordinate calcium oscillations and polar growth of root hairs
Cyclic nucleotide-gated channels are crucial for proper root hair growth and calcium balance in plants.
research Sostdc1 defines the size and number of skin appendage placodes
Sostdc1 controls the size and number of hair and mammary gland structures.
research Overexpression of mIGF-1 in Keratinocytes Improves Wound Healing and Accelerates Hair Follicle Formation and Cycling in Mice
mIGF-1 in skin cells speeds up wound healing and hair growth in mice without harmful effects.
research Cutaneous Retinoic Acid Levels Determine Hair Follicle Development and Downgrowth
The right amount of retinoic acid is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research Effects of lifelong testosterone exposure on health and disease using Mendelian randomization
Higher testosterone levels can increase the risk of certain diseases like type 2 diabetes in women and prostate cancer in men, but can also protect against autoimmune diseases and hair loss. It also affects body fat and bone density.
research Disruption of tubular Flcn expression as a mouse model for renal tumor induction
Disrupting the Flcn gene in mice causes early kidney cysts and tumors, which can be treated with rapamycin.
research Unraveling the complex role of MAPT-containing H1 and H2 haplotypes in neurodegenerative diseases
H1 increases risk for neurodegenerative diseases, while H2 offers protection but is linked to other disorders.
research Genomic Regions Associated with Wool, Growth and Reproduction Traits in Uruguayan Merino Sheep
Certain genes influence wool, growth, and reproduction traits in Uruguayan Merino sheep.
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 Exomic Sequencing of Immune-Related Genes Reveals Novel Candidate Variants Associated with Alopecia Universalis
HLA-DRB5 and other genes may be linked to alopecia universalis.
research Fibrotic enzymes modulate wound‐induced skin tumorigenesis
PRSS35 enzyme may help start skin tumors and could be a target for cancer treatment.
research Directed Expression of a Chimeric Type II Keratin Partially Rescues Keratin 5-null Mice
A chimeric keratin partially improved skin structure in mice lacking keratin 5, but didn't fully restore normal skin.
research Selection signatures for fiber production in commercial species: A review
Genomic research can help improve the quality and production of natural fibers in animals.
research Molecular Regulatory Mechanisms in Chicken Feather Follicle Morphogenesis
The document concludes that various signaling pathways and genetic factors are crucial for chicken feather development, affecting poultry quality.
research Phenotyping mice with skin, hair, or nail abnormalities: A systematic approach and methodologies from simple to complex
Understanding genetic variations in mice is crucial for studying skin, hair, or nail abnormalities.
research Author response: Effects of lifelong testosterone exposure on health and disease using Mendelian randomization
Long-term high testosterone levels can improve bone density and reduce body fat but may increase the risk of prostate cancer and high blood pressure.
research A comprehensive genome-wide analysis for signatures of selection in goat (genus Capra) revealed new candidate genes for environmental adaptation and productive traits
Goat genes show adaptation to environments and traits like body development, with differences among cashmere, feral, and milk-producing goats.
research Abstracts from the 55th European Society of Human Genetics (ESHG) Conference: e-Posters
Rare ULBP3 gene changes may raise the risk of Alopecia areata, a certain FAS gene deletion could cause a dysfunctional protein in an immune disorder, and having one copy of a specific genetic deletion is okay, but two copies cause sickle cell disease.
research Stem Cell Use to Treat Dermatological Disorders
Stem cell therapy shows promise for treating skin disorders.
research Decision letter: Effects of lifelong testosterone exposure on health and disease using Mendelian randomization
Increased free testosterone can lead to stronger bones and less body fat but also higher risks of prostate cancer, hair loss, spine issues, and high blood pressure.
research Meeting Report: 68th Montagna Symposium on the Biology of Skin “Decoding Complex Skin Diseases: Integrating Genetics, Genomics, and Disease Biology”
The symposium highlighted the importance of genetics in understanding and treating complex skin diseases.
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.
