5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Long-read RNA sequencing reveals extensive transcript isoform changes in a patient with IFAP syndrome with a recurrent intronic MBTPS2 variant
A study on a patient with IFAP syndrome, characterized by ichthyosis, alopecia, and photophobia, identified a hemizygous intronic variant in the MBTPS2 gene. This variant, previously known to cause a 20-base skipping in exon 7, was further investigated using long-read RNA sequencing. The analysis revealed additional skipping of exons 6 and 7 and a significant reduction in normal transcript expression compared to healthy skin. This highlights the utility of long-read RNA sequencing in identifying diverse transcript isoforms and understanding the impact of splice-altering variants.

A user with diffuse thinning shares a tip for improving hair appearance by using a shea butter and coconut oil serum from Trader Joe's at night. They are on finasteride and considering adding minoxidil for better results.
community Is it possible to transplant mice skin into human body?
Transplanting mice skin to humans is not feasible due to immune rejection, but some suggest genetic modification or immune suppression could make it possible. Xenograft hair transplants are discouraged.
