research [Genetic dissection of retinoic acid function in epidermis physiology].
Retinoic acid affects skin and hair health by working with specific receptors, and its absence can lead to hair loss and skin changes.
research Short anagen hair syndrome is caused by mutations in the WNT10A gene and has a genetic overlap with male pattern hair loss
Mutations in the WNT10A gene cause Short Anagen Hair syndrome and increase the risk of male pattern hair loss.
research 412 DETECTION OF CIRCULATING PROSTATE CANCER CELLS BY MEANS OF AN ANTIBODY-CONJUGATED NANOPARTICULAR BIOSENSOR

research Molecular basis of androgen insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause androgen insensitivity, leading to female traits in genetically male individuals.
research CDK4/6 plus aromatase inhibitor-induced alopecia in breast cancer patients.
Some breast cancer treatments cause hair loss similar to male pattern baldness, which can be improved with minoxidil.
research The mouse frizzy (fr) and rat ‘hairless’ (frCR) mutations are natural variants of protease serine S1 family member 8 (Prss8)
The frizzy mouse and hairless rat mutations are due to changes in the Prss8 gene.
research Interleukin gene polymorphisms and alopecia areata: A systematic review and meta-analysis
A mutation in the IL2RA gene increases the risk of alopecia areata.
research Molecular Conversations and the Development of the Hair Follicle and Basal Cell Carcinoma
Overactive signaling in hair follicles can lead to skin cancer.
research Generalized atrophic benign epidermolysis bullosa.
GABEB is a less severe skin condition caused by a gene mutation affecting collagen, leading to blisters and other symptoms.
research Mutations in ABCB6 Cause Dyschromatosis Universalis Hereditaria
Mutations in the ABCB6 gene cause Dyschromatosis Universalis Hereditaria.
research Integrin α3β1 in hair bulge stem cells modulates CCN2 expression and promotes skin tumorigenesis
Removing integrin α3β1 from hair stem cells lowers skin tumor growth by affecting CCN2 protein levels.
research Targeted expression of activated erbB-2 to the epidermis of transgenic mice elicits striking developmental abnormalities in the epidermis and hair follicles.
Activated erbB-2 in mice skin causes severe skin and hair abnormalities.
research Vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms are not associated with alopecia areata
Vitamin D receptor gene variations are not linked to alopecia areata.
research Role of the Wnt signaling pathway in keratoacanthoma
The Wnt signaling pathway is not a major factor in the development of keratoacanthoma, a type of skin tumor.
