Cantú syndrome is caused by mutations in the ABCC9 gene.
research Tricorrexis nudosa localizada por aplicación compulsiva de minoxidil
Excessive minoxidil use can damage hair structure.
research Development of Woolly Hair and Hairlessness in a CRISPR−Engineered Mutant Mouse Model with KRT71 Mutations
Researchers made a mouse model with curly hair and hair loss by editing a gene.
research Updated strategies for the management, pathogenesis and molecular genetics of different forms of ichthyosis syndromes with prominent hair abnormalities
Early diagnosis and tailored treatments are crucial for managing ichthyosis syndromes with hair abnormalities.
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.
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 A Novel Connexin 26 Mutation in a Patient Diagnosed with Keratitis–Ichthyosis–Deafness Syndrome
A new mutation in the Connexin 26 gene was found in a patient with KID syndrome, expanding the known disorders linked to this gene.
research Genetic Hair Disorders: A Review
The conclusion is that genetic testing is important for diagnosing and treating various genetic hair disorders.
research The Hairless Phenotype of the Hirosaki Hairless Rat Is Due to the Deletion of an 80-kb Genomic DNA Containing Five Basic Keratin Genes
Hirosaki hairless rats lack hair due to missing DNA with key keratin genes.
