750-780 / 1000+ results research Association between TLR1 polymorphisms and alopecia areata
A specific gene variant (rs4833095) is linked to a higher risk of alopecia areata in Koreans.
research Integrated multiple machine learning and Mendelian randomization reveal LTF gene as a prognostic biomarker for nonspecific orbital inflammation
The LTF gene may help predict and manage nonspecific orbital inflammation.
research Gene Variant in Amish a Clue to Better Aging
A genetic mutation linked to longer life and less disease was found in the Amish, and a drug is being developed to replicate these benefits.
research Overexpression of spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase under the control of mouse metallothionein I promoter in transgenic mice: evidence for a striking post-transcriptional regulation of transgene expression by a polyamine analogue
Overexpressing SSAT in mice makes them highly sensitive to polyamine analogues, causing liver damage and high mortality.
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 An mTurq2-Col4a1 mouse model allows for live visualization of mammalian basement membrane development
The mTurq2-Col4a1 mouse model shows how the basement membrane develops in live mammals.
research Pseudo Pemphigus Phenotypes in Mice with Inactivated Desmoglein 3
Mice with a mutated Dsg3 gene showed severe symptoms but not the typical blistering of pemphigus vulgaris.
research 875 A novel animal model of Desmoglein 1 (Dsg1) deficiency reveals an essential role for Dsg1 in epidermal barrier formation
Dsg1 is essential for maintaining a healthy skin barrier in mice.
research Dormant tumor cells in ret transgenic mouse melanoma model and their interaction with memory T cells
Dormant melanoma cells in mice interact minimally with memory T cells due to a suppressive tumor environment.
research Expression of a dominant negative mutant of epidermal growth factor receptor in the epidermis of transgenic mice elicits striking alterations in hair follicle development and skin structure.
Blocking EGFR in mice causes hair loss and skin changes.
research MCMV Infection Lowers the Threshold for the Development of Clinical GvHD after Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplantation.
CMV infection increases the risk of GvHD after bone marrow transplants.
research 1393 Human TMEM2 is not a hyaluronidase but a regulator of hyaluronan metabolism
Human TMEM2 does not break down hyaluronan but helps control its metabolism.
research The human promyelocytic leukemia protein is a tumor suppressor for murine skin carcinogenesis
The PML protein helps prevent skin cancer in mice.
research HMGB1 promotes hair growth via the modulation of prostaglandin metabolism
A protein called HMGB1 helps hair grow by affecting prostaglandin metabolism.
research Keratin 17 modulates hair follicle cycling in a TNFα-dependent fashion
Keratin 17 is crucial for normal hair growth by regulating hair cycle transitions with TNFα.
research Novel skin phenotypes revealed by a genome-wide mouse reverse genetic screen
The research identified new skin traits in mice, some linked to human skin conditions.
research Atrichia with papular lesions in a Taiwanese patient without hairless (HR) gene mutation
A Taiwanese patient had hair loss and skin bumps without the usual gene mutation, suggesting other genetic factors might be involved.
research Skin-specific regulation of SREBP processing and lipid biosynthesis by glycerol kinase 5
A gene called Gk5 controls lipid production in the skin and affects hair growth.
research Genetic Defects in Human Pericentrin Are Associated With Severe Insulin Resistance and Diabetes
People with PCNT mutations often develop severe insulin resistance and early-onset diabetes during childhood or adolescence.
research Cancer vaccine strategies and studies of human thioredoxin reductase splice variants
Vaccines and targeting TrxR variants can help prevent cancer and reduce metastasis.

The muscle damage was caused by T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia, not dermatomyositis.
research Increased copy number of the TERT and TERC telomerase subunit genes in cancer cells
Cancer cells often have more copies of TERT and TERC genes, which helps them grow and could affect patient outcomes.
research Polygenic control of the wavy coat of the NCT mouse: involvement of an intracisternal A particle insertional mutation of the protease, serine 53 (Prss53) gene, and a modifier gene
The wavy coat in NCT mice is caused by multiple genes, including a mutation in the Prss53 gene.
