research Rare and common genetic determinants of metabolic individuality and their effects on human health
Genetic variations greatly affect individual metabolism and can impact health and disease risk.
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 Resequencing and Signatures of Selective Scans Point to Candidate Genetic Variants for Hair Length Traits in Long-Haired and Normal-Haired Tianzhu White Yak
The research found specific genes that may cause longer hair in Tianzhu White Yak.
research Mutational spectrum associated with oculocutaneous albinism and Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome in nine Pakistani families
New genetic variants linked to albinism were found in Pakistani families.
research Cost-effectively dissecting the genetic architecture of complex wool traits in rabbits by low-coverage sequencing
Low-coverage sequencing is a cost-effective way to find genetic factors affecting rabbit wool traits.
research The genetic link between thyroid dysfunction and alopecia areata: a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization study
Thyroid issues can cause alopecia areata.
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 Whole-genome resequencing to investigate the genetic diversity and the molecular basis underlying key economic traits in indigenous sheep breeds adapted to hypoxic environments
Tibetan sheep have specific genes for high-altitude adaptation and wool traits, aiding breeding strategies.
research An autosomal recessive nonsense variant in the EGFR gene induces perinatal lethality in “Blonde d'Aquitaine” calves
A genetic variant in "Blonde d'Aquitaine" calves causes death at birth due to a missing protein.
research Technological Advances in Anti-hair Loss and Hair Regrowth Cosmeceuticals: Mechanistic Breakthroughs and Industrial Prospects Driven by Multidisciplinary Collaborative Innovation
Collaboration and innovation are key to developing effective, safe hair loss treatments.
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 New aspects of vitamin D metabolism and action — addressing the skin as source and target
research Chronic overlapping pain conditions and nociplastic pain
Nociplastic pain is a complex, heritable trait with genetic links to chronic and neuropathic pain.
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.
research Deciphering the molecular drivers for cashmere/pashmina fiber production in goats: a comprehensive review
research Polymorphisms of the genes ABCG2, SLC22A12 and XDH and their relation with hyperuricemia and hypercholesterolemia in Mexican young adults
A specific gene variation increases the risk of high uric acid and cholesterol in young Mexican males.
research Fetal alpha 5-reductase Val89Leu mutation is associated with late miscarriage
A certain mutation in the fetal alpha 5-reductase gene is linked to a higher risk of late miscarriage.
research Genetic Insights into Acne, Androgenetic Alopecia, and Alopecia Areata: Implications for Mechanisms and Precision Dermatology
Genetic insights can lead to personalized treatments for acne, androgenetic alopecia, and alopecia areata.
research Forensic DNA Phenotyping
Forensic DNA Phenotyping accurately predicts physical traits and is used in investigations, but needs more diverse population data for confirmation.
research Social selection favours offspring prone to the development of androgenetic alopecia.
Society's pressure to have children later in life favors genes that increase the risk of early baldness in male offspring.
research A genome-wide association study of chemotherapy-induced alopecia in breast cancer patients
A specific gene variant is linked to a higher risk of hair loss from chemotherapy in breast cancer patients.
