The study found that certain genes are important for hedgehog skin appendage development and immunity, with spines possibly evolving for protection and infection resistance.
research Compound Heterozygous Mutations in Forkhead Box N1 (FOXN1) Lead to a Severe Immunodeficiency but Normal Hair and Nail Development in Patients
Mutations in the FOXN1 gene cause severe immune issues but don't affect hair and nails.
research MOF-mediated histone H4 Lysine 16 acetylation governs mitochondrial and ciliary functions by controlling gene promoters
MOF controls key genes for skin development by regulating mitochondrial and ciliary functions.

A mutation in the HOXC13 gene causes hair and nail problems in a Syrian family.
research 477 Dietary fat- and obesity-sensitive dermal adipocyte PKCβ induction and inflammation cross-talk
Eating a lot of fat increases PKCβ and inflammation in skin fat cells, which affects skin and hair health.
research Sequencing KRT71 as a candidate gene for hair shape variation in dromedary camels
KRT71 gene variants may influence camel hair shape but don't fully explain it.
research A new START
PDF2 senses specific lipids and regulates root growth and gene expression in Arabidopsis.
research A new type of pachyonychia congenita.
