There is no significant link between alopecia areata and the PON1 enzyme polymorphisms studied.
research Expanding phenotype of hereditary fibrosing poikiloderma with tendon contractures, myopathy, and pulmonary fibrosis caused by FAM111B mutations: Report of an additional family raising the question of cancer predisposition and a short review of early-onset poikiloderma
The document suggests a possible link between FAM111B gene mutations and increased cancer risk, particularly pancreatic cancer.
research A Novel Point Mutation in the Ligand-Binding Domain (LBD) of the Human Glucocorticoid Receptor (hGR) Causing Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance: The Importance of the C Terminus of hGR LBD in Conferring Transactivational Activity
A new mutation in the human glucocorticoid receptor reduces its function and causes resistance to glucocorticoids.
research Disruption of P2RY5, an orphan G protein–coupled receptor, underlies autosomal recessive woolly hair
Mutations in the P2RY5 gene cause autosomal recessive woolly hair.
research Data from Spontaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma Induced by the Somatic Inactivation of Retinoblastoma and Trp53 Tumor Suppressors
Loss of the p53 gene alone causes tumors, and losing both p53 and Rb genes speeds up aggressive skin cancer.
research Molecular basis of androgen insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause androgen insensitivity, leading to female traits in genetically male individuals.
research Type II Keratins Are Phosphorylated on a Unique Motif during Stress and Mitosis in Tissues and Cultured Cells
Type II keratins are uniquely phosphorylated during stress and mitosis, affecting their structure and function.
research Clinical and Laboratory Characteristics of Individuals Aged ≤17 Years With Homeostatic Iron Regulator (HFE) p.C282Y Homozygosity, a Common Hemochromatosis Genotype
Most children with a common hemochromatosis genotype had elevated iron levels but no severe symptoms.
research Nevus Sebaceus With Novel HRAS Sequence Variant Mutation Misdiagnosed as Alopecia Areata
A 12-year-old girl was misdiagnosed with alopecia areata but actually had a nevus sebaceus with a genetic mutation.
research Alopecia areata - probing the deforestation
The document concludes that doctors should recognize congenital triangular alopecia to avoid unnecessary treatments, as it does not respond to steroids like alopecia areata does.
research The possible implication of the S250C variant of the autoimmune regulator protein in a patient with autoimmunity and immunodeficiency: in silico analysis suggests a molecular pathogenic mechanism for the variant
The S250C variant in a gene may cause autoimmunity and immunodeficiency by impairing protein function.
research Decision letter: Deletion of the MAD2L1 spindle assembly checkpoint gene is tolerated in mouse models of acute T-cell lymphoma and hepatocellular carcinoma
Deleting the MAD2L1 gene in mice led to rapid tumor growth despite chromosomal instability.
research Association of HSPA1B SNP rs6457452 with Alopecia Areata in the Korean Population
