research Metabolic syndrome and metabolic risk profile according to polycystic ovary syndrome phenotype
Women with severe types of PCOS are more likely to have metabolic syndrome, and belly fat is a key predictor of this risk.
research The complex relationship between TFEB transcription factor phosphorylation and subcellular localization
Phosphorylation controls TFEB's location in the cell, affecting cell metabolism and stress response.
research Trias of keratosis pilaris, ulerythema ophryogenes and 18p monosomy: Zouboulis syndrome
Zouboulis syndrome is a rare condition that helps diagnose monosomy 18p early.
research Telogen elongation in the hair cycle of ob/ob mice
Obese mice with a leptin gene mutation have a longer resting phase in their hair cycle, which may help understand certain hair loss conditions.
research Trichothiodystrophy with Dysmyelination and Central Osteosclerosis
Specific brain and bone imaging findings can help diagnose Trichothiodystrophy.
research Masquerading of trichotillomania in a family with monilethrix
It's important to consider genetic hair disorders when diagnosing hair loss.
research In utero Diagnosis of Trichothiodystrophy by Endoscopically-Guided Fetal Eyebrow Biopsy
Prenatal diagnosis of trichothiodystrophy is possible in the second trimester using fetal eyebrow biopsy, with sulfur content analysis being more reliable.
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 Successful plasmapheresis and immunoglobulin treatment for severe lipid storage myopathy: Doing the right thing for the wrong reason
Correct diagnosis and treatment are crucial for effective management of lipid storage myopathies.
research Sic Transit Gloria: Farewell to the Epidermal Transit Amplifying Cell?
New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.
research Alopecia: Association with Resistance to Thyroid Hormones
A specific thyroid hormone resistance mutation may be linked to different types of hair loss.
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 1329 Transglutaminase 2 deficiency leads to lipid accumulation and reduced autophagy in SZ95 sebocytes
Lack of TG2 increases fat storage and lowers cell cleanup in skin oil cells.
research Regulatory mutations in TBX3 disrupt asymmetric hair pigmentation that underlies Dun camouflage color in horses
Mutations in TBX3 cause horses to have more even hair color instead of Dun camouflage.
research The transcriptional repressor CDP (Cutl1) is essential for epithelial cell differentiation of the lung and the hair follicle
CDP is crucial for lung and hair follicle cell development.
research Homozygous whole body Cbs knockout in adult mice features minimal pathology during ageing despite severe homocysteinemia
Adult mice with CBS deficiency show minimal health issues and normal lifespan despite high homocysteine levels.
research Normalization of hair growth in sparse fur-abnormal skin and hair (SPF-ASH) mice by introduction of the rat ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) gene
Introducing the rat OTC gene normalized hair growth in SPF-ASH mice.
research Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the KRT82 promoter region modulate irregular thickening and patchiness in the dorsal skin of New Zealand rabbits
Certain genetic changes in the KRT82 gene may cause patchy skin in New Zealand rabbits.
research Female pattern hair loss: Clinico-laboratory findings and trichoscopy depending on disease severity
Genetics affect early female hair loss, severity depends on duration, and low ferritin levels not significant.
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 Cutaneous consequences of inhibiting EGF receptor signaling in vivo: Normal hair follicle development, but retarded hair cycle induction and inhibition of adipocyte growth in EgfrWa5 mice
Reduced EGFR signaling delays hair cycle and reduces fat growth, but hair development remains normal.
research Transcriptomic regulation of seasonal coat color change in hares
Genes related to pigmentation, body rhythms, and behavior change during hares' seasonal coat color transition, with a common genetic mechanism in two hare species.
research Trichothiodystrophy in a child with occult learning disorder
Early diagnosis and a multidisciplinary approach are crucial for children with Trichothiodystrophy and hidden learning disorders.
research Finasteride Reduces Total Cholesterol in LDLR-Deficient Mice
High doses of finasteride lower cholesterol and body weight in certain mice.
research A distinct gene close to the hairless locus on chromosome 8p underlies hereditary Marie Unna type hypotrichosis in a German family
A different gene near the hairless gene on chromosome 8p21 causes a rare hair loss condition in a German family.
research The compatibility of Bacillus thuringiensis Cry protein-solubilizing buffers with the droplet feeding method in fall armyworm larvae
Thymosin beta 4 protects cells from damage by blocking a harmful microRNA and boosting a protective gene.
research Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome: from gene discovery to molecularly targeted therapies
New therapies for Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome are being developed based on understanding the FLCN gene's role.
research The genetic evolution of skin squamous cell carcinoma: tumor suppressor identity matters
The type of tumor suppressor gene lost affects the behavior of skin cancer.
research Clinical Snippets
Melanoma risk tools need improvement, a gene mutation causes a hair disorder that might be treated by managing cell stress, a potential therapy for a skin-ear disorder involves blocking cell channels, skin wrinkling may indicate lung aging regardless of smoking, and oxidative stress might contribute to common baldness.
