research Homozygous Nonsense Mutation in DSC3 Resulting in Skin Fragility and Hypotrichosis
This study provides definitive evidence that a homozygous mutation in the DSC3 gene causes skin fragility and hypotrichosis in humans.
research Polymorphism of Exon V of prolactin gene and its association with Cashmere traits in Changthangi Pashmina goats
This study found that prolactin gene polymorphism in Changthangi goats showed no significant association with Cashmere quality traits, indicating the need for further research with larger sample sizes.
research A polymorphism in the matrix metalloproteinase-1 gene promoter is associated with the presence of polycystic ovary syndrome in Caucasian women
In this study, women with the GG polymorphism of the MMP1 gene promoter were found to have a higher likelihood of being diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Loss of PIKFyve Kinase Function Driven by Platelet Factor 4 Promoter Results in Platelet Lysosomal Storage Defects and Infiltration of Multiple Organs with Vacuolated Macrophages
This study found that selective deletion of PIKFyve kinase using a PF4 promoter in mice led to defective platelet lysosome biogenesis and a prothrombotic effect, with unexpected macrophage infiltration in multiple organs.
research Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
In this study, researchers used an evolutionary-rate-based method to identify genetic elements associated with reduced hair in mammals, finding a dichotomy between accelerated coding sequences and noncoding regulatory elements influencing hair growth.
research SRD5A3 Is Required for Converting Polyprenol to Dolichol and Is Mutated in a Congenital Glycosylation Disorder
This study identifies mutations in the SRD5A3 gene as a cause of a new type of congenital disorder of glycosylation, impacting mental, ophthalmologic, and cerebellar functions.
research Generating mouse models of degenerative diseases using Cre/lox-mediated in vivo mosaic cell ablation
In this study, a transgenic mouse model was used to demonstrate that targeted cell loss in different tissues led to varying degrees of regenerative outcomes, including reversible impaired glucose tolerance, irreversible hair loss, and permanent moderate deafness.
research Transgenic mice display hair loss and regrowth overexpressing mutant Hr gene
This study found that in transgenic mice overexpressing a mutant hairless gene, changes in its expression affected hair loss and regrowth, implicating the gene's role in hair follicle biology.
research Defective trophoblast function in mice with a targeted mutation of Ets2
Ets2 gene is crucial for placental development in mice.
research Novel Systematics of Nomenclature and Classification of Female Functional Androgenization (Including Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Non-Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia)
This study developed a detailed classification system for functional androgenization in females that may enhance diagnosis and personalized treatment by identifying individual dysfunctions.
research Fine Mapping and Identifying the Mutation Gene of snthr -1Bao ScantHair Mouse
This study identified a 14,883 bp genomic deletion affecting the Plcd1 and Vill genes as likely responsible for the abnormal phenotype observed in snthr-1Bao mice.
research ESGCT and FSGT Collaborative Congress Helsinki, Finland September 17–20, 2015 Abstracts
The congress highlighted new gene therapy techniques and cell transplantation methods for treating diseases.
research Correction of Hair Shaft Defects through Allele-Specific Silencing of Mutant Krt75
This study demonstrated that RNA interference targeting mutant keratin genes can effectively correct hair shaft structural defects in a mouse model by reducing mutant gene expression.
research Forensic DNA Phenotyping
This paper discusses forensic DNA phenotyping, emphasizing its ability to infer visible traits from biological samples without reference samples, but notes ethical and legal concerns related to its use.
research The Near-Naked Hairless (Hr) Mutation Disrupts Hair Formation but Is Not Due to a Mutation in the Hairless Coding Region
This study reports that the near-naked hairless mutation in mice is not an allele of the Hairless gene but may involve a mutation in a linked gene or a regulatory mutation.
research A Splice Site Mutation in the Gene of the Human Type I Hair Keratin hHa1 Results in the Expression of a Tailless Keratin Isoform
This study found that the hHa1-t protein variant, caused by a genetic polymorphism in the hHa1 gene, forms functional keratin filaments despite lacking a complete nonhelical tail domain, explaining the absence of a pathological hair phenotype.
research Development of Heritable Melanoma in Transgenic Mice
This study reports that transgenic mice carrying Clone B DNA developed spontaneous melanomas likely due to an interruption in genes regulating cell growth in melanin-producing cells, offering a model for melanoma research.
research A Missense Mutation within the Helix Initiation Motif of the Keratin K71 Gene Underlies Autosomal Dominant Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis
