Scientists now better understand the genetics of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, leading to more accurate diagnoses and potential new treatments.
research Sparse Hair on the Scalp
A 5-year-old girl has sparse, dry, and brittle hair but is otherwise healthy.
research Localisation and regulation of cholesterol transporters in the human hair follicle: mapping changes across the hair cycle
Cholesterol transport in hair follicles decreases from growth to regression phase.

Adjusting the medication tacrolimus resolved a boy's red nail beds after a stem cell transplant.
research Oral Manifestations of Hematologic and Nutritional Diseases
Recognizing oral symptoms can help diagnose and treat blood and nutritional diseases early.
research Skin features in myotonic dystrophy type 1: An observational study
People with Myotonic Dystrophy type 1 are more likely to have certain skin conditions, but not more likely to get skin cancer.

The document reports unique growth lines in a child after Stevens-Johnson syndrome, skin reaction from parsnips and sun in a girl, and itchy skin with xanthomas in a boy with Alagille syndrome.
research Possible mechanisms of miniaturization during androgenetic alopecia or pattern hair loss
Hair loss occurs due to fewer papillary cells, smaller follicles, and shorter growth phases.
research Role of Trichoscopy in Children's Scalp and Hair Disorders
Trichoscopy is good for diagnosing and monitoring hair and scalp problems in children but needs more research for certain conditions.
research A case of pili torti in a young adult domestic short-haired cat
A young cat had a rare hair condition with twisted hair shafts but stayed healthy.
research The cat with alopecia
Cats lose fur due to various reasons, including allergies, infections, genetics, hormones, diet, cancer, stress, and some conditions are treatable while others are not.
research Hair Restoration
The document concludes that there are various causes and treatments for hair loss, with hair transplantation being a notable option.
research The proteomic profile of hair damage
Bleaching hair damages protein structure, especially keratin, leading to weakened hair.
research Variant PADI3 in Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia
Mutations in the PADI3 gene are linked to a higher risk of scarring hair loss in women of African descent.
research Molecular basis of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia: an update
Mutations in specific genes disrupt development of sweat glands, teeth, hair, skin, and nails in HED.
research Mutational spectrum in 101 patients with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and breakpoint mapping in independent cases of rare genomic rearrangements
Researchers found genetic mutations causing hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in 88% of studied patients and identified new mutations and genetic variations affecting the disease.
research Male fertility and skin diseases
Some skin diseases and their treatments can negatively affect male fertility.
research Identification of a recurrent nonsense mutation in HR gene responsible for atrichia with papular lesions in two Kashmiri families
A mutation in the HR gene causes a rare form of irreversible hair loss in two Kashmiri families. Whole exome sequencing is effective for finding such mutations.
research Mutational spectrum of EDA, EDAR, EDARADD, and WNT10A genes in the largest cohort of Russian patients with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia
Most genetic mutations causing hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in Russian patients are found in the EDA gene.
research Two Incidental Sibling Diagnoses of Netherton Syndrome in Separate Visits: A Case Report
Doctors should consider Netherton syndrome in patients with chronic skin and hair issues to avoid misdiagnosis.
research Oral Presentations
The document concludes that an experimental drug may help wound healing in Epidermolysis Bullosa, links Hydroa vacciniforme to EBV, discusses diagnosing hair loss disorders, finds many children with eczema have allergies, reviews the safety of a skin medication in children, notes side effects of a Duchenne's treatment, and identifies a marker for pediatric mastocytosis.
research Novel agents for the treatment of alopecia
New treatments for hair loss show promise, especially finasteride for men and a stronger minoxidil formula.
