research Androgen Receptors And Their Biology
Androgen receptors are key for development and health, affecting conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness.
research An Epistatic Effect of KRT25 on SP6 Is Involved in Curly Coat in Horses
The genes KRT25 and SP6 affect curly hair in horses, with KRT25 also causing hair loss. If both genes are mutated, the horse gets curly hair and hair loss. KRT25 can hide the effect of SP6.
research Pulmonary Manifestations of Birt-Hogg-Dubé Syndrome
People with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome often have lung problems and delayed diagnosis, and better recognition of CT scan signs could improve diagnosis and management.
