This study found that in patients with genetic generalized epilepsies, certain gene variants were linked to differences in valproic acid treatment outcomes, including a higher likelihood of treatment failure, varying serum drug concentrations, and specific side effects like weight gain and hair loss.

This study investigates the potential causal relationship between hypothyroidism and hair loss conditions like alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia, noting that previous studies have reported inconsistent findings. Results are not yet detailed.

In this study, researchers identified three novel genetic loci associated with androgenetic alopecia, including one with significant association in females only, which may indicate a role for sex-specific genetic factors in patterned hair loss.

This study identified 21 candidate genes related to immunoglobulin concentrations in colostrum and serum of dairy cattle, which may aid in genetic improvement for disease resistance.

This thesis explores both environmental and genetic factors in prostate cancer, focusing on surrogate hormone markers, medical radiation, family history, and genetic polymorphisms related to DNA repair and hormone marker genes, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, the researchers successfully cloned and sequenced the hairless gene cDNA of Kunming mice, revealing high conservation and functional significance among various mammalian species.

This article discusses androgenetic alopecia as a potential early marker for benign prostatic hyperplasia but reports no new clinical findings.

Gene variant linked to prostate cancer, hormone levels, and hair loss.

This study concluded that allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR) is more reliable than tetra-primer ARMS-PCR for genotyping the SNP rs1998076 due to better stability and interpretability.

This study identified mutations in the SNRPE gene that may disrupt hair growth, linking a spliceosome component to hereditary hair loss disorders.

In this study, researchers identified a recurrent MBTPS2 splice-site variant as a mutational hotspot in IFAP syndrome across diverse families, with phenotype severity suggesting the influence of additional modifiers.

This study found that an SNP in the FGFR2 gene, rs4752566, was significantly associated with hair thickness in Asian populations, suggesting an effect on hair morphology through altered FGFR2 expression levels.

This study found that the VEGF +405G/C polymorphism may be an inheritable risk factor for polycystic ovary syndrome in south Indian women.

This study found that the rs2228570 polymorphism of the VDR gene was associated with an increased risk of melanoma, while the rs731236 polymorphism was linked to a protective effect against the disease in Colombian patients.

This study identified three novel genetic loci associated with PCOS and found similar genetic architecture across different diagnostic criteria, with evidence suggesting genetic links between PCOS and various metabolic and psychological traits.

GABRA2 gene variations impact alcohol response, and hair loss medication finasteride reduces some effects.

In their study, Tim Spector and colleagues identified a new genetic association at chromosome 20p11.22 with male-pattern baldness, confirmed by the increased risk when combined with a known androgen receptor gene variant.

This study found several microRNA-related genetic variants linked to epithelial ovarian cancer risk, with a notable association at the 17q21.31 region, suggesting potential new susceptibility genes.

This study identified a 69 bp deletion in the KRT75 gene as the cause of the frizzle feather trait in chickens, affecting feather curling.

In this study, genetic variation in the CYP19A1 gene, particularly the common rs4646 C allele, was associated with an increased risk of female pattern hair loss, especially in women under 40.

This study identified that a deficiency in the palmitoyl transferase enzyme, due to a mutation in the Zdhhc13 gene, led to severe physiological abnormalities in mice, including skin, bone, and systemic amyloid issues.

This study identified novel genetic associations with skin phenotypes such as age-spots, freckles, and hair characteristics in Japanese women, providing insights into the genetic basis of these traits.

This study suggests that the AR/EDA2R locus may contribute to early-onset female pattern hair loss, but no association was found with the 20p11 locus.

This study builds on previous findings by associating female pattern hair loss with gene polymorphisms related to oestrogen activity, suggesting oestrogen's role in the condition.

In this study, researchers identified two independent genetic variants near the androgen receptor gene strongly associated with androgenetic alopecia in men.

This study suggests that the androgen receptor locus on the X chromosome may play a role in the pathogenesis of early-onset female pattern hair loss.

This review discusses genome-wide association studies in dermatology, noting that variants linked to risk for 10 skin complex diseases have been identified, with potential implications for diagnostics and management; it reports no new clinical results.

Darker hair may lead to higher cortisol readings, suggesting a need to adjust for hair color in studies.

This study found that polymorphisms in the KAP8.2 gene in Chinese Inner Mongolia cashmere goats are associated with variations in cashmere fibre diameter, suggesting its potential as a molecular marker for this trait.

This study observed a potential association between the CC genotype of rs4646 and female pattern hair loss, but the authors advise caution due to lack of experiment-wide significance and recommend replication.
