New genetic mutations linked to rare skin disorders were found in three newborns.
research Author response: Loss of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b does not affect epidermal homeostasis but promotes squamous transformation through PPAR-γ
Loss of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b leads to more aggressive skin tumors, but blocking PPAR-γ can reduce this effect.
research 42761 The elusive BAP1 mutation in pediatric melanocytic tumors
BAP1 mutations are rare in pediatric melanocytic tumors and may develop later in life.
research Genetic Variants at 20p11 Confer Risk to Androgenetic Alopecia in the Chinese Han Population
Genetic variants at 20p11 increase baldness risk in Chinese Han people.

The Shaven mutation in mice affects hair growth and causes a greasy coat due to abnormal lipid content.
research Abstract 1835: Development of mammary hyperplasia, dysplasia, and invasive ductal carcinoma in transgenic mice expressing the 8p11 amplicon oncogene NSD3 (WHSC1L1)
Overexpressing NSD3 in mice causes breast cancer-like tumors and gland abnormalities.
research 414 A new form of ectodermal dysplasia caused by mutations in TSPEAR
Mutations in the TSPEAR gene cause a new form of ectodermal dysplasia affecting hair and tooth development.
research A genetic electrophoretic variant of high-sulfur hair proteins for forensic hair comparisons. I. Characterization of variant high-sulfur proteins of human hair.
A genetic hair protein variant is more common in Japanese people and is inherited.
research Manipulation of outer root sheath cell survival perturbs the hair-growth cycle
Overexpression of certain genes can shorten hair by disrupting the hair-growth cycle.
research Coactivator MED1 Ablation in Keratinocytes Results in Hair-Cycling Defects and Epidermal Alterations
Deleting MED1 in skin cells causes hair loss and skin changes.
research Forkhead/winged-helix transcription factor whn regulates hair keratin gene expression: Molecular analysis of theNude skin phenotype
Whn is essential for hair growth, and its malfunction causes hair loss.
research The human type I keratin gene family: Characterization of new hair follicle specific members and evaluation of the chromosome 17q21.2 gene domain
The study identified and characterized new keratin genes linked to hair follicles and epithelial tissues.
research A function for Rac1 in the terminal differentiation and pigmentation of hair
Rac1 is essential for proper hair structure and color.
research Sequence Analysis of mtDNA NADH-Ubiquinone Oxidoreductase Chain 1 Gene (ND1) of the Asian Black Bear Sichuan Subspecies (Ursus thibetanus mupinensis)
The ND1 gene of the Asian black bear Sichuan subspecies is similar to other bear species.
research A temperature-sensitive FERONIA mutant allele that alters root hair growth
A mutant FERONIA gene affects root hair growth at high temperatures.
research 879 IL-9 mediated human primary keratinocytes invasion is dependent on MLC controlled contractility and independent of MMP activity
IL-9 increases skin cell movement but decreases their ability to invade, and this effect is controlled by cell contractility, not by MMPs.
research Highly Conserved Keratin-Associated Protein 7-1 Gene in Yak, Taurine and Zebu Cattle
The KRTAP7-1 gene is very similar across different cattle and yak breeds and likely plays a role in hair strength and shape.
