This study examined genetic risk factors for alopecia areata in the Jordanian population but found no significant association between the 21 targeted risk loci and the condition, emphasizing variability in genetic predisposition across ethnic groups and potential non-genetic triggers.

This systematic review and meta-analysis found 30 genetic loci associated with skin ageing phenotypes, noting shared biological pathways in aspects like pigmentation and wrinkling; researchers suggest further studies targeting the same SNP across populations could clarify these associations.

This study suggests that down-regulation of vasculature-related genes in dermal papilla cells from balding scalps might contribute to the development of androgenetic alopecia.

This article discusses the MendelVar webserver, which integrates Mendelian disease data with GWAS findings to prioritize candidate genes for complex traits and reports no new experimental results.

This study used whole-genome sequence data to identify numerous putative causal variants and genes affecting key wool traits and skin wrinkle in Merino sheep, highlighting their polygenic and pleiotropic nature.

This study identified 19 genetic risk loci and 16 potential causal genes related to PCOS, highlighting the role of immune cell-specific mechanisms in its pathogenesis.

This review discusses genetic contributions to androgenetic alopecia and proposes focusing on candidate genes in genome-wide association studies, but it reports no new clinical results.
