New genes and markers can help breed better cashmere goats.
research Identification of differentially expressed Gnαs and Gnα11 in sheep ( Ovis aries ) skins associated with white and black coat colors
Black sheep have higher levels of Gnαs and Gnα11 proteins, which may affect their coat color.
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 novel PLEC nonsense homozygous mutation (c.7159G > T; p.Glu2387*) causes epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy and diffuse alopecia: a case report
A new mutation in the PLEC gene causes a rare condition with skin blistering, muscle weakness, and hair loss.
research Genotyping of the rs1800440 Polymorphism in CYP1B1 Gene and the rs9258883 Polymorphism in HLA-B Gene in a Spanish Cohort of 223 Patients with Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia
Certain genetic variants are linked to frontal fibrosing alopecia in Spanish patients.
research 821 Pigmentation and autophagy in alopecia areata pathogenesis
Reduced Stx17 expression may contribute to Alopecia Areata.
research Identification of somatic and germline mosaicism for a keratin 5 mutation in epidermolysis bullosa simplex in a family of which the proband was previously regarded as a sporadic case
The keratin 5 mutation in a family with epidermolysis bullosa simplex was due to mosaicism, not a new mutation.
research DSG4 Gene Variants as a Cause of Hypotrichosis in the Child with Severe Atopic Dermatitis: Clinical Case
Genetic testing can diagnose hair loss linked to DSG4 gene variants.
research The Hairless Phenotype of the Hirosaki Hairless Rat Is Due to the Deletion of an 80-kb Genomic DNA Containing Five Basic Keratin Genes
Hirosaki hairless rats lack hair due to missing DNA with key keratin genes.
research Steroidogenesis of the testis – new genes and pathways
New genes and pathways are important for testosterone production and male sexual development.
research SHISA6 Confers Resistance to Differentiation-Promoting Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling in Mouse Spermatogenic Stem Cells
SHISA6 helps maintain certain stem cells in mouse testes by blocking signals that would otherwise cause them to differentiate.
research Divergent roles of HDAC1 and HDAC2 in the regulation of epidermal development and tumorigenesis
HDAC1 is crucial for skin development and preventing tumors.
research Supplementary Material for: Polymorphic CAG Repeat Numbers in the Androgen Receptor Gene of Female Pattern Hair Loss in a Han Chinese Population
