research Insights learned from L457(3.43)R, an activating mutant of the human lutropin receptor
This study found that the L457(3.43)R mutation in the human luteinizing hormone receptor increases phosphodiesterase activity, reducing hormonal response despite elevated basal cAMP levels.
research A kindred with mutant IKAROS and autoimmunity
This study found that a novel IKZF1 mutation, p.L188V, is linked to juvenile-onset systemic lupus erythematosus and alters B-cell activation by disrupting normal DNA binding.
research A second KRT71 allele in curly coated dogs
This study suggests that a newly identified KRT 71 gene variant may be responsible for curly hair in Curly Coated Retrievers and potentially contributes to follicular dysplasia.
research Mitogen‐regulated protein/proliferin mRNA induction following single applications of tumor promoters to murine skin
This study found that mrp/plf-mRNA expression in murine skin increases in response to different tumor promoters, suggesting its potential as a short-term biomarker for chemical carcinogenesis.
research Tumor suppressor identity can contribute to heterogeneity of phenotype in hair follicle stem cell‐induced squamous cell carcinoma
The researchers reported that in mice, the type of tumor suppressor deleted along with oncogenic Kras activation in HFSCs influenced the specific squamous cell carcinoma phenotype that developed.
research KRT16 wt Allele
This abstract reviews the role of the human KRT 16 wild-type allele in skin and hair development and its association with certain genetic skin disorders, without presenting new findings.
research Poly(rC) binding protein 2 acts as a negative regulator of IRES-mediated translation of Hr mRNA
This study suggests that hair loss disorders like Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis may result from mutations that disrupt post-transcriptional regulation of HR protein expression by PCPB2 interacting with Hr mRNA.
research A new way to restore tumour suppressor function
New treatments may restore cancer-blocking proteins, slow prostate cancer, identify drug targets, and potentially regrow hair.
research Ductal breast cancer in a male patient
An 86-year-old man with prostate cancer was diagnosed with a rare, low-grade breast cancer and underwent surgery but declined additional hormone therapy.
research Expanding the Clinical and Mutational Spectrum of Recessive AEBP1-Related Classical-Like Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome
This study identifies a likely pathogenic homozygous missense variant in the AEBP1 gene in a patient with symptoms of classical Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, suggesting new perspectives for EDS classification and research.
research KRT72 wt Allele
This article discusses the human KRT72 wild-type allele's role in hair formation and reports no new research findings.
research Decision letter: Deletion of the MAD2L1 spindle assembly checkpoint gene is tolerated in mouse models of acute T-cell lymphoma and hepatocellular carcinoma
In this study, conditional inactivation of the Mad2l1 SAC gene in mice led to aggressive and lethal acute lymphoblastic leukemia and hepatocellular carcinoma, demonstrating a link between chromosomal instability and cancer development.
research PA15 Becker naevus syndrome associated with a mosaic pathogenic variant in ACTB
This case report describes a 15-year-old girl with features of Becker naevus syndrome, highlighting the importance of DNA analysis from skin to confirm the diagnosis after 9 years of symptoms.
research Abstract 5022: Keratin15 (Krt15) + are radio resistant and tumor-initiating cells in the mouse small intestine
This study identified a radio-resistant population of Krt15+ stem cells in the mouse small intestine that can initiate tumors, suggesting potential targets for colon cancer therapy.
research 1322 A non-cell autonomous dermal hedgehog signaling mechanism for follicular neoplasia and induction
This study found that in a mouse model of Gorlin syndrome, constitutive activation of signaling in dermal cells led to abnormal follicular growth, indicating non-epidermal factors may contribute to the disease.
research Mutation analysis of type II hair keratin gene in a pedigree with monilethrix
This study found a novel R430Q gene mutation in hHb6, which may be linked to the hereditary hair disorder monilethrix in the examined family.
research High-confidence cancer patient stratification through multiomics investigation of DNA repair disorders
In this study, the researchers identified CEP135 as a biomarker linked to poor sarcoma survival and suggested PLK1 as a potential therapeutic target for sarcoma patients with high CEP135 expression.
research Newly Developed Targeted Therapies Against the Androgen Receptor in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer: A Review
This review discusses androgen receptor targeting as a potential treatment strategy for triple-negative breast cancer and reports no new experimental outcomes.
research A novel PLEC nonsense homozygous mutation (c.7159G > T; p.Glu2387*) causes epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy and diffuse alopecia: a case report
This paper describes a case of epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy associated with a novel PLEC mutation and diffuse alopecia, highlighting a potential genetic link that remains uncertain.
research Deregulated expression of c-Myc depletes epidermal stem cells
research Direct cellular reprogramming enables development of viral T antigen–driven Merkel cell carcinoma in mice
This study found that the development of Merkel cell carcinoma from hair follicles in mice can be driven by in vivo reprogramming with ATOH1 and relies on p53 loss for progression.
research Targeting the Warburg Effect in Anaplastic Thyroid Carcinoma: Metabolic Vulnerabilities and Therapeutic Opportunities
This review synthesizes current evidence on the Warburg effect in anaplastic thyroid carcinoma and discusses potential therapeutic targets, but reports no new clinical results.
research A newly identified missense mutation of the HR gene is associated with a novel, unusual phenotype of Marie Unna Hereditary Hypotrichosis 1 including limb deformities
This study reports a novel missense mutation in the HR gene in a 68-year-old Hungarian woman with alopecia universalis and limb deformities, suggesting a need for further research on its role in these conditions.
