January 2018 in “Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis” This study found that IL-18 rs187238 and rs1946518 single nucleotide polymorphisms were associated with increased susceptibility to alopecia areata in a Turkish population.
November 2022 in “Van Sağlık Bilimleri Dergisi” This study found no association between W locus allele variations and phenotypic traits like eye color, head spotting, and fur length in Turkish Van cats, suggesting other genetic factors should be explored.
This study reported the genotypic and allelic frequencies of seven SNPs associated with androgenetic alopecia in Mexican individuals, highlighting significant differences in one SNP between cases and controls in Western Mexico.
