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.

Keratin proteins are increasingly recognized as important for cell health and are linked to many diseases.
research Two Mutations at KRT74 and EDAR Synergistically Drive the Fine-Wool Production in Chinese Sheep
Two mutations in KRT74 and EDAR genes cause sheep to have finer wool.
research Screened of Long Non-Coding RNA Related to Wool Development and Fineness in Gansu Alpine Fine-Wool Sheep
Long non-coding RNAs help regulate wool fineness in Gansu alpine fine-wool sheep.
research The Endocannabinoid Tone Regulates Human Sebocyte Biology
The endocannabinoid system affects oil production and inflammation in skin cells.
research Improving Human Forensics Through Advances in Genetics, Genomics, and Molecular Biology
DNA profiling in forensics has improved, but predicting physical traits and ancestry from DNA has limitations and requires ethical consideration.
research A Comparison of Transcriptomic Patterns Measured in the Skin of Chinese Fine and Coarse Wool Sheep Breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research Prevalence of Scalp Disorders Among Outpatients Attending Dermatology Department in a Semi-Urban Setup: A Cross-Sectional Observational Study
Many patients at a dermatology clinic had scalp problems, often unrelated to why they visited, suggesting scalp checks should be regular.
