research Alopecia areata in a rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta)
The monkey's hair loss was due to an autoimmune disease, not genetics.
research Novel skin phenotypes revealed by a genome-wide mouse reverse genetic screen
The research identified new skin traits in mice, some linked to human skin conditions.
research A novel EDA variant that causes X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in a Chinese family
A new EDA gene variant causes X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in a Chinese family.
research The crosstalk between PTEN ‐induced kinase 1‐mediated mitophagy and the inflammasome in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata
Targeting mitophagy may help treat alopecia areata by reducing inflammasome activation.
research Observation of cultured amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles by atomic force microscopy
Amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles are immature and likely don't transfer melanosomes to keratinocytes.
research 46, XY 5-Alpha Reductase Deficiency in a 36-Year-Old Phenotypic Female Patient
A 36-year-old person with a female appearance but male chromosomes was diagnosed with a rare enzyme deficiency affecting sexual development.
research Mutations in γ-secretase subunit–encoding PSENEN underlie Dowling-Degos disease associated with acne inversa
PSENEN gene mutations can cause both Dowling-Degos disease and acne inversa.
research Characterization of Hair Follicles in Hirosaki Hairless Rats with Deletion of Basic Hair Keratin Genes. Enlarged Medulla, Loss of Cuticle and Long Catagen
Hirosaki hairless rats have sparse, twisted hair due to missing hair keratin genes.
research CYP21A2 Mutations in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
Mutations in the CYP21A2 gene are not a major factor in causing PCOS.
research Regulation of Mitochondrial Oxidative Metabolism by Tumor Suppressor FLCN
The tumor suppressor gene FLCN affects mitochondrial function and energy use in cells.
research CPC14 Blaschko-linear trichoepitheliomas: unveiling type 1 segmental mosaicism
A rare skin condition in a boy is likely due to a specific genetic mutation pattern.
research Formation of regulator/target gene relationships during evolution
Gene regulatory regions evolve faster than protein coding regions, allowing new gene relationships without changing transcription factors.
research 26 Characterization of a murine model of aa induced by adoptive transfer of cultured lymph node cells
The study developed a mouse model for Alopecia Areata that responds to treatment, useful for future research.
research Kartagener Syndrome With Ectodermal Anomalies in An Adolescent Female: A Case Report
A 17-year-old girl with Kartagener's syndrome also has unusual skin, hair, and nail issues.
research Homozygous K5Cre transgenic mice have wavy hair and accelerated malignant progression in a murine model of skin carcinogenesis
Homozygous K5Cre transgenic mice have wavy hair and faster cancer progression.
research Conversion of C57Bl/6 mice from a tumor promotion–resistant to a –sensitive phenotype by enhanced ornithine decarboxylase expression
Increased ODC expression makes normally tumor-resistant mice more prone to tumor development.
research APCDD1 is a novel Wnt inhibitor mutated in hereditary hypotrichosis simplex
A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.
research The Mask Mutation Identifies TMPRSS6 as an Essential Suppressor of Hepcidin Gene Expression, Required for Normal Uptake of Dietary Iron.
TMPRSS6 is crucial for controlling hepcidin and normal iron absorption.
research Genetic analysis of interleukin 18 gene polymorphisms in alopecia areata
Certain IL-18 gene variations may increase the risk of alopecia areata.
research Recent advances in the genetics of alopecia areata
New research has found 14 genes linked to the risk of developing alopecia areata, improving understanding and treatment options.
research Region-specific reversal of epidermal planar polarity in the rosette fancy mouse
Hair follicles in the back of the rosette fancy mouse have reversed orientations due to a gene mutation.
research FOXN1 deficient nude severe combined immunodeficiency
FOXN1 gene mutations cause a rare, severe immune disease treatable with cell or tissue transplants.
research Roles of jumonji and jumonji family genes in chromatin regulation and development
Jumonji genes are important for development and their mutations can cause abnormalities, especially in the heart and brain.
research Comparison of Alopecia areata in Human and Nonhuman Mammalian Species
The document concludes that certain rats and mice are useful for studying hair loss in humans and testing treatments.
research Inhibition of the development of metastatic squamous cell carcinoma in protein kinase C epsilon transgenic mice by alpha-difluoromethylornithine accompanied by marked hair follicle degeneration and hair loss.
Alpha-difluoromethylornithine prevents cancer in mice but causes hair loss.
research A new compound heterozygous frameshift mutation in the type II 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3 beta-HSD) gene causes salt-wasting 3 beta-HSD deficiency congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
A genetic mutation in a specific gene causes a salt-wasting condition in a Pakistani girl and her family.
research Marie Unna Hereditary Hypotrichosis Gene Maps to Human Chromosome 8p21 Near Hairless
The gene for Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis is located on chromosome 8p21, near the hairless gene.
research Steroidogenic Factor-1 Lineage Origin of Skin Lesions in Carney Complex Syndrome
Skin lesions in Carney Complex are caused by a gene change in some skin cells that leads to increased pigmentation and may lead to tumors.
research Pityriasis amiantacea following bone marrow transplant.
A woman developed a hair disorder after a bone marrow transplant, which improved with treatment.
