research Identification of Novel Mutations in Basic Hair Keratins hHb1 and hHb6 in Monilethrix: Implications for Protein Structure and Clinical Phenotype
New mutations in hair keratin genes can change hair structure and cause monilethrix, with nail issues more common in certain gene mutations.
research Monilethrix
A 12-year-old girl was diagnosed with monilethrix, a genetic condition causing fragile, beaded hair that breaks easily, with no effective treatment available.
research Alopecia areata incognita in Cronkhite-Canada syndrome
The report suggests that hair loss in Cronkhite-Canada syndrome may be caused by alopecia areata incognita, as shown by a patient's improvement with treatment.
research Update on detection, morphology and fragility in pili annulati in three kindreds
Careful light microscopy is crucial for detecting mild cases of pili annulati, which weakens hair and varies widely in expression.
research Clinical and Molecular Diagnostic Criteria of Congenital Atrichia with Papular Lesions11This paper originally appeared in issue 117:1662–1665, 2001.
