research The Two Functional Keratin 6 Genes of Mouse Are Differentially Regulated and Evolved Independently from Their Human Orthologs
Mouse keratin 6 genes evolved independently from human ones and are regulated differently.
research Human type 3 5α-reductase is expressed in peripheral tissues at higher levels than types 1 and 2 and its activity is potently inhibited by finasteride and dutasteride
Type 3 5α-reductase is more common and finasteride and dutasteride strongly inhibit it.
research Whole-genome SNP genotyping mapped a novel locus for hereditary hypotrichosis on chromosome 2q31.1–q32.2
Researchers found a new area on chromosome 2 linked to a genetic hair loss condition.
research Fadrozole and finasteride exposures modulate sex steroid- and thyroid hormone-related gene expression in Silurana (Xenopus) tropicalis early larval development
Fadrozole and finasteride change gene expression related to sex hormones and thyroid hormones in frog larvae development.
research O04 HPV8 E6 leads to Lrig1+ keratinocyte stem cell expansion
HPV8 E6 gene causes growth of certain skin stem cells.
research 1410 Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals POUF51 and HES3 as regulators of the stem cell population in psoriasis
POUF51 and HES3 are key in controlling stem cell numbers in psoriasis.
research 461 Identification of a Novel Pathogenic XPC:c.2420+1G>C Variant in a Patient with Xeroderma Pigmentosum
A new genetic mutation causing Xeroderma Pigmentosum was found in an 8-year-old girl, affecting her DNA repair.
research Molecular Aspects of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome in Female Population in Karnataka at the Southwestern Region of India
PCOS in women from Karnataka is influenced by genetics, family history, and insulin resistance, requiring better diagnosis and treatment.
research Expression of the human Cathepsin L inhibitor hurpin in mice: skin alterations and increased carcinogenesis
Overexpression of hurpin in mice leads to abnormal skin and higher skin cancer risk.
research Unexpectedly high carrier rates and genotype/phenotype correlation; LIPH mutations in Japanese autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis
Certain gene mutations in Japanese people are linked to different types of hair loss, with some causing mild hair thinning and others leading to complete baldness.
research The association between Interleukin (IL)-4 gene intron 3 VNTR polymorphism and alopecia areata (AA) in Turkish population
IL-4 gene variation may increase the risk of alopecia areata in Turkish people.
research Disturbed Keratinocyte Differentiation in Transgenic Mice and Organotypic Keratinocyte Cultures as a Result of Spermidine/Spermine N1-Acetyltransferase Overexpression
Overexpression of SSAT causes hair loss and skin issues, but reducing putrescine can help.
research Two mouse mutations mapped to chromosome 11 with differing morphologies but similar progressive inflammatory alopecia
Two mouse mutations cause similar hair loss despite different skin changes.
research Genetic correlation by pedigree analysis in patients diagnosed with PCOS as per Rotterdam’s criteria
PCOS is likely inherited in families, increasing risk for first-degree relatives.
research Author response: The molecular basis for ANE syndrome revealed by the large ribosomal subunit processome interactome
Defective protein folding due to a mutation is key in ANE syndrome.
research Isolation and characterization of a sheep cysteine-rich cuticle keratin pseudogene
Researchers found a non-functional sheep keratin gene due to mutations.
research Atrichia with Papular Lesions in a Chinese Family Caused by Novel Compound Heterozygous Mutations and Literature Review
New genetic mutations causing hair loss were found in a Chinese family.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
