Journal ArticleDOI
Model-based prediction of human hair color using DNA variants
Wojciech Branicki,Fan Liu,Kate van Duijn,Jolanta Draus-Barini,Ewelina Pośpiech,Susan Walsh,Tomasz Kupiec,Anna Wojas-Pelc,Manfred Kayser +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that human hair color is predictable from DNA variants with similarly high accuracies to that of human eye color, for which it has been recently demonstrated that highly accurate prediction is feasible from a small number of DNA variants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interactions between HERC2, OCA2 and MC1R may influence human pigmentation phenotype.
TL;DR: There is an interaction between MC1R and HERC2 in determination of skin and hair colour in the studied population sample and it is concluded that OCA2 rs1800407 is independently associated with eye colour.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acne Treatment Based on Selective Photothermolysis of Sebaceous Follicles with Topically Delivered Light-Absorbing Gold Microparticles

Kauvar,Jenifer Lloyd,Wang L Cheung,Witold Owczarek,Anna M Suwalska,Katarzyna B Kochanska,Agnieszka K Nawrocka,Elwira Paluchowska,Katarzyna M Podolec,Magdalena Maria Pirowska,Anna Wojas-Pelc,R. Rox Anderson +18 more
TL;DR: Optical microparticles enable selective photothermolysis of sebaceous glands and appears to be a well-tolerated, effective treatment for acne vulgaris.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of phenotype associated SNPs in the MC1R gene
TL;DR: Determination of a homozygous or heterozygous combination can be a good predictor of both red hair color and fair skin of a subject and the potential forensic applicability of variation within this pigment‐related gene is focused on.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gene-gene interactions contribute to eye colour variation in humans.
TL;DR: This research indicates interactive effects of a synergistic character between HERC2 and OCA2, and provides evidence for a novel strong synergistic interaction between Herc2 and TYRP1, both affecting determination of green eye colour.
