This study found that among young women in West Bengal, India, co-occurring PCOS and related conditions like estrogen resistance and leptin receptor insufficiency are common, with notable genetic variations identified, including impairments in leptin signaling and insulin resistance.

Lower adrenal hormone levels may cause hair loss in postmenopausal women, certain patterns help diagnose nail cancer, and a gene variant linked to higher skin cancer risk in kidney transplant patients suggests monitoring folate levels.

This study found that rare damaging variants in the KRT82 gene, which affect hair shaft integrity, may contribute to the risk of alopecia areata.

This study identified multiple genetic variants in Pakistani families with oculocutaneous albinism, including two novel variants, enhancing understanding of its genetic basis and aiding better management and counseling.

This study identified a gene variant in the TRPV3 gene that may explain the suri alpaca phenotype, characterized by longer and less crimped fleece, suggesting this variant's involvement in the development of these hair characteristics compared to the huacaya phenotype.

A specific gene variant is linked to heart disease, increased heart muscle, curly hair, and thick skin on palms and soles.

This research found that variations in the KRTAP gene family are likely responsible for the diverse hair phenotypes seen among mammals, influenced by gene repertoire differences, expression, and evolutionary factors.

This study found significant associations between certain MICA variants and haplotypes with alopecia areata, suggesting MICA as a potential candidate gene linked to the disease's susceptibility and severity.
