990-1000 / 1000+ resultsresearch The T-cell antigen receptor: paradigm recalled
research A Homozygous Frameshift Mutation in theHOXC13Gene Underlies Pure Hair and Nail Ectodermal Dysplasia in a Syrian Family
A mutation in the HOXC13 gene causes hair and nail problems in a Syrian family.
research Formation of regulator/target gene relationships during evolution
Gene regulatory regions evolve faster than protein coding regions, allowing new gene relationships without changing transcription factors.
research Mutations in Three Genes Encoding Proteins Involved in Hair Shaft Formation Cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome
Mutations in three genes cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome, leading to frizzy hair that can't be combed flat.
research Cloning, computational analysis and expression profiling of steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 (SRD5A1) gene during reproductive phases and ovatide stimulation in endangered catfish, Clarias magur
The research identified and described a gene important for hormone conversion in endangered catfish, which varies in activity during different reproductive stages and after hormone treatment.
research Protease-Activated Receptor-1 (Thrombin Receptor) Is Expressed in Mesenchymal Portions of Human Hair Follicle
PAR-1 may play a role in hair growth regulation in human hair follicles.
research Construction and Verification of Recombinant Follicle-specific Expression Vector
The vector successfully directed specific gene expression in hair follicles.
research Mutations in Homocysteine Metabolism Genes Increase Keratin N-Homocysteinylation and Damage in Mice
Genetic mutations that disrupt homocysteine breakdown lead to increased damage in mouse hair keratin.
research Degradation of human hair keratin scaffold material used to repair injured skeletal muscles of rabbits
Human hair keratin scaffold material degrades in muscles mainly through the ubiquitin system with lysosome help.
