research Interactions between epidermal growth factor and the Tabby mutation in skin

6 citations , October 1998 in “Experimental Dermatology”

This study found that exogenous EGF inhibited hair follicle development and decreased follicle density in both Tabby and normal mice, suggesting interactions between EGF and the Ta peptide influence normal skin phenotype.

research Tabby pattern genetics – a whole new breed of cat

11 citations , May 2010 in “Pigment Cell & Melanoma Research”

This study reviews the genetic mechanisms behind cat coat patterns, revealing that specific loci determine tabby variations and suggesting these patterns could unravel broader developmental and evolutionary biology insights.

research EDA Missense Variant in a Cat with X-Linked Hypohidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia

June 2024 in “Genes”

This study identified a missense variant in the EDA gene of a male cat, which likely caused hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, characterized by hair and teeth abnormalities; this represents the first report of such a genetic condition in cats.
