This study suggests that male sex and androgenic steroid use increase the risk of atrial arrhythmias in individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, especially those with desmosomal gene mutations.

This study found that anabolic steroid use combined with plakoglobin deficiency caused pathological atrial electrical remodeling in young male mice, suggesting a higher risk of atrial myopathy for males with desmosomal gene variants.

This study identified novel mutations in the DSG4 gene in a Japanese patient with monilethrix, affecting protein interactions that may disrupt hair shaft structure.

This review discusses how dysfunction in keratinocyte adhesion affects skin integrity and conditions like alopecia and keratoderma, highlighting the roles of intercellular junctions, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that desmosomal adhesion plays a crucial role in epithelial morphogenesis and cell positioning, equivalent in importance to that of adherens junctions.

This index of Harper's Textbook of Pediatric Dermatology, Fourth Edition, provides no clinical results or new findings.

This study found that loss of Apc due to K14-cre-mediated gene recombination in mice led to aberrant growth in ectodermally derived squamous epithelia, implicating its critical role in specifying epithelial cell fates during embryonic development.
