This study found that the Siberian sunshine tabby coat modification is associated with a specific CORIN gene variant, suggesting a genetic basis for this golden phenotype in cats.

This study found that the AR-E211 A allele is associated with a lower risk of both metastatic prostate cancer and androgenetic alopecia in an Australian population.

This study found that Han Chinese women carrying the rs6152A allele had a significantly higher risk of developing polycystic ovary syndrome compared to those with the rs6152GG genotype.

In this study, researchers identified four novel variants in the FGF5 gene associated with the long-haired phenotype in dogs, suggesting additional unexplored genetic factors contribute to this trait beyond the known Lh1-Lh5 alleles.

This study found that girls with polycystic ovary syndrome and longer SHBG and AR gene repeats experienced greater improvements in lipid and androgen levels after one year of metformin treatment.

In this study, researchers identified a temperature-sensitive mutation in the FERONIA gene of plants that prevents root hair formation at elevated temperatures, highlighting its role in maintaining root hair growth and response to plant hormones.

Some people have a genetic variation that makes them less effective at breaking down drugs.

This study found that the GGC repeat length significantly influenced testosterone levels in oral contraceptive users from high-risk breast cancer families, and homozygosity for short alleles may be linked to increased breast cancer risk.

In this study, researchers found that interaction between transcription factor EBF1 and gene WNT10A, influenced by a genetic variant, may play a role in hair shaft formation and anagen shortening in male pattern baldness.

This study identified 47 genetic variants with a higher frequency in centenarians compared to young controls in the Bulgarian population, suggesting potential associations with longevity.

In this study, researchers found that specific IL18 genetic variants may be linked to increased susceptibility to alopecia areata in a Korean population.

In this study, researchers observed that overweight Taiwanese women with PCOS who carry the HSD3B1 1245C allele have a significantly higher risk of developing androgenic alopecia compared to those with the wild-type allele.

In this study, researchers found that cytokine dysregulation linked to genetic background is present in both patients and healthy but genetically related individuals in two autoimmune skin diseases, Pemphigus vulgaris and Alopecia areata, suggesting that protective immune mechanisms may prevent disease manifestation in predisposed individuals.

This study reports the first identification of the deleterious NIPAL 4 variant, associated with autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis, in an American Bully and describes its clinical management and follow-up.

This study identified new genetic variants on chromosome 20p11 associated with male pattern baldness.

This study found that integrating breed-specific BOA and SNP-based models helps reveal the genetic factors involved in thermotolerance traits in beef cattle, enhancing insights into thermoregulation and potentially improving cattle's heat resilience.

This study found that desmocollin 1 is crucial for strong adhesion and barrier maintenance in the mouse epidermis, with its absence leading to skin and hair issues resembling chronic dermatitis.

This study determined that nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia has a 2.2% prevalence among hyperandrogenic women in Spain, with basal serum 17-hydroxyprogesterone showing excellent diagnostic performance.

This study developed a new STR typing strategy for forensic casework, enabling the simultaneous analysis of 11 polymorphic systems, particularly useful for limited or degraded DNA samples such as telogen hair roots.

This study identified a compound heterozygous mutation in the 3 beta-HSD gene that confirmed inherited 3 beta-HSD deficiency in a Pakistani child with salt-wasting congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This study found that specific SHBG gene variants and haplotypes are associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting that SHBG may be a candidate gene for the condition.

In this study, researchers identified genetic factors associated with frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting a protective effect of a specific CYP1B1 gene variant, which may offer insights into the disease's pathogenesis and future risk mitigation strategies.

This study identified an association between alopecia areata and the MICA*009 and HLA-B14 genetic markers, highlighting the importance of studying them together to better understand their role in this condition.

This synopsis reviews key dermatological advancements discussed at the British Association of Dermatologists meeting in 2011 and reports no new clinical results.

This study found no predictive link between mothers’ PCOS symptoms and the adolescent phenotype, but identified certain gene alleles associated with higher testosterone levels in affected adolescents.

This study found no significant genetic association between the 5α-reductase enzyme genes and male pattern baldness, suggesting a polygenic etiology rather than simple inheritance.

This case report identifies a novel maternally inherited MBTPS2 variant associated with an expanded phenotypic spectrum of BRESHECK syndrome, including cytopenias, bone marrow fibrosis, and chronic diarrhea.

This study identified a 195 bp duplication in crested chickens that causes large crest feathers and can be associated with cerebral hernia in some breeds, but not all.

This study found that STRIP1 and the STRIPAK complex play a key role in regulating F-actin and cell-cell junctions, which are essential for maintaining the epidermal barrier in mouse skin.

This study found weak epidemiological associations between male pattern baldness and coronary heart disease, but no significant genetic link, though specific loci shared risks with other conditions.
