870-900 / 1000+ resultsresearch A Variable Monilethrix Phenotype Associated With a Novel Mutation, Glu402Lys, in the Helix Termination Motif of the Type II Hair Keratin hHb1
A new mutation, Glu402Lys, in hair keratin is linked to variable symptoms of monilethrix.
research 1381 Molecular mechanisms of donor dominance in androgenetic alopecia
Hair pattern in androgenetic alopecia overlaps with scalp and bone demarcations, with distinct gene profiles affecting susceptibility.
research 1430 Autophagy controls the protein composition of hair shafts
Autophagy is important for determining the protein makeup of hair.
research Connubial Androgenetic Alopecia
Hamilton scale imprecise, hair shaft diameter decreases, stem cell transplant regrows hair, ECP ineffective for alopecia areata universalis.
research Athena: Specialty Certificate Examination case for general dermatology and dermatology in primary healthcare
Alopecia areata has a high chance of persisting and relapsing, with a significant risk of total hair loss, especially if it starts in childhood.
research The Ratio of Typical Clubbing in Pulled-Out Hairs as a Useful Marker in Predicting the Course of Alopecia Areata
Examining hair shape can help predict Alopecia Areata's progression.
research Targeted two-photon chemical apoptotic ablation of defined cell types in vivo
A new laser technique can precisely remove specific cell types in living animals without harming nearby cells.
research Late‐onset alopecia areata: A retrospective study of 73 patients from Taiwan
Late-onset alopecia areata in Taiwanese patients is more common in women, usually starts at age 57, often involves less than 10% hair loss, and may have a minimal link to thyroid issues.
research An investigation of crosstalk between Wnt/β-catenin and transforming growth factor-β signaling in androgenetic alopecia
Wnt/β-catenin and TGF-β pathways affect hair loss, and activating Wnt/β-catenin could be a potential treatment.
research Loss of Stem Cells Correlates with Premature Aging in Animal Study, Penn Researchers Find
Removing a key gene in mice leads to premature aging and loss of stem cells.
research Aging of hair follicle stem cells and their niches
Aging changes hair stem cells and their environment, leading to gray hair and hair thinning, but understanding these changes could help develop treatments for hair regeneration.
research Central nervous system involvement in autoimmune polyglandular syndrome
Autoimmune polyglandular syndrome can cause temporary brain issues that may improve on their own.
research Cleave but not leave: Astrotactin proteins in development and disease
Astrotactin proteins are important for brain and skin development and are linked to several neurodevelopmental disorders.
research C2orf37 mutational spectrum in Woodhouse–Sakati syndrome patients
Truncating mutations in the C2orf37 gene cause Woodhouse–Sakati syndrome.
research Suprabulbar Thinning of Hair in Telogen Effluvium
Hair is thinner near the scalp in acute hair shedding conditions.
research Is androgenetic alopecia a risk for atherosclerosis?
Severe vertex pattern hair loss may indicate a higher risk for artery plaque buildup.
research Clinical and demographic characteristics associated with nail involvement in alopecia areata: A cross‐sectional study of 197 patients
Younger patients with severe alopecia areata often have nail problems.
research Assessment of Vascular Circulation in Alopecia Areata Using the FMSF Technique
Women with alopecia areata have poor blood flow, possibly due to nerve inflammation.
research Asebia-2J (Scd1ab2J): A New Allele and a Model for Scarring Alopecia
The absence of functional sebaceous glands causes hair follicle destruction and scarring alopecia.
research Acute Diffuse and Total Alopecia of the Female Scalp
A new type of sudden, complete female hair loss was found, with most patients fully recovering within 6 months without needing steroid treatment.
research Skin fragility, diffuse ecchymosis and blisters on a yellowish waxy base
A woman's skin symptoms led to a diagnosis of systemic AL amyloidosis, but she died from sepsis shortly after.
research Mitochondrial DNA 10158T>C mutation in a patient with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes syndrome
A patient with a rare disease had a unique genetic mutation linked to their symptoms.
research Towards Defining the Pathogenesis of the Hairless Phenotype
The hairless gene mutation causes baldness by disrupting hair follicle structure.

A rare genetic disease caused severe, worsening hair loss from early childhood with poor treatment results.
research Alopecia areata in a patient with WNT10A heterozygous ectodermal dysplasia
A girl with a rare genetic condition affecting hair and nails also developed a common type of hair loss, suggesting a possible genetic link.
research Androgen Receptor–Mediated Paracrine Signaling Induces Regression of Blood Vessels in the Dermal Papilla in Androgenetic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness is linked to higher levels of a certain receptor in the scalp, which leads to the shrinking of blood vessels and hair loss. Early treatment targeting this receptor could be more effective.
research Histologic Study of the Regeneration Process of Human Hair Follicles Grafted onto SCID Mice after Bulb Amputation
Human hair follicles can regenerate and recover after severe injury by going through a brief abnormal resting phase before growing again.
research Ischemic onycholysis of the hands
A woman's nail separation was likely caused by poor blood flow, and a treatment for similar conditions might help.
