research Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, leading to their unique scales and skin features.
research Convergent Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, showing complex skin evolution.
research Whole Exome Sequencing in Alopecia Areata Patients Identifies a Hotspot Mutation in the Type II Hair Keratin Gene, KRT82
A mutation in the KRT82 gene is significantly associated with Alopecia Areata.
research Endocrine Disorders in Woodhouse-Sakati Syndrome: A Systematic Review of the Literature
Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome often causes sexual development issues, hair loss, learning disabilities, deafness, muscle contractions, limb pain, and diabetes.
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 Genetics of Diabetes in Childhood
Certain genes are linked to type 1 and type 2 diabetes in kids, and changes in these genes can also cause other diabetes-related conditions.
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.
research Olmsted Syndrome Caused by a Heterozygous p.Gly568Val Missense Mutation in TRPV3 Gene
A specific gene mutation causes Olmsted syndrome.
research A Combination of Low-Dose Systemic Etretinate and Topical Calcipotriol/Betamethasone Dipropionate Treatment for Hyperkeratosis and Itching in Olmsted Syndrome Associated with a TRPV3 Mutation
The combined treatment effectively managed severe skin issues in Olmsted syndrome.
research Finding Bald Spots on Chromosome 20p11
New genes linked to male pattern baldness were found on chromosome 20p11.
research Genetics of Progeria and Aging
Progeria, a disease that causes early aging, is linked to a gene mutation and helps us understand normal aging.
research When Whorls Collide: The Development of Hair Patterns in Frizzled 6 Mutant Mice

research A Case to Tear One's Hair Out: Trichotillomania in Wilson's Disease
A patient with Wilson's disease showed hair-pulling behavior as an initial symptom.
research APCDD1 Is a Novel Wnt Inhibitor Mutated in Hereditary Hypotrichosis Simplex
A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.
research Hedgehog signalling in skin development and cancer
The document reviewed the role of the hedgehog (Hh) signalling pathway in skin development and cancer, particularly basal cell carcinoma (BCC), which affected 750,000 Americans annually. It highlighted how mutations in genes like PATCHED (PTCH), sonic hedgehog (Shh), and smoothened (Smo) expanded the understanding of BCC's genetic basis. The Shh pathway was crucial for stem cell maintenance and hair follicle and sebaceous gland development in the skin, though it played a minimal role in adult tissues. The review summarized studies on the Shh pathway's involvement in skin development and cancer, described animal models based on this pathway, and discussed chemoprevention strategies for BCCs, providing insights into molecular target-based prevention and treatment of skin cancer.
research Asebia-2J (Scd1ab2J): A New Allele and a Model for Scarring Alopecia
The absence of functional sebaceous glands causes hair follicle destruction and scarring alopecia.
research Impaired Notch-MKP-1 Signalling in Hidradenitis Suppurativa: An Approach to Pathogenesis by Evidence from Translational Biology
