Hair follicles can help diagnose traumatic brain injury quickly and non-invasively.
research Adverse event reporting of four anti-Calcitonin gene-related peptide monoclonal antibodies for migraine prevention: a real-world study based on the FDA adverse event reporting system
These migraine prevention drugs can cause side effects like constipation, hair loss, injection site reactions, fatigue, and sometimes unexpected issues like Raynaud's phenomenon and weight gain.
research RETRACTED: Serum lipids may causally affect the occurrence of alopecia areata: A Mendelian randomization study
Higher LDL lipids may increase alopecia areata risk, while higher triglycerides may decrease it.
research More than One Gene Involved in Monilethrix: Intracellular but also Extracellular Players
Monilethrix involves multiple genes affecting hair structure, including DSG4 mutations.
research Circulating testosterone and feather-gene expression of receptors and metabolic enzymes in relation to melanin-based colouration in the barn owl
Barn owls with smaller black spots have higher testosterone levels, which might be due to genetic effects on hormone regulation rather than hormone effects on coloration.
research Delineation of Matriptase Protein Expression by Enzymatic Gene Trapping Suggests Diverging Roles in Barrier Function, Hair Formation, and Squamous Cell Carcinogenesis
Matriptase is crucial for skin barrier, hair growth, and may contribute to skin cancer.
research A Splice Site Mutation in the Gene of the Human Type I Hair Keratin hHa1 Results in the Expression of a Tailless Keratin Isoform
A genetic mutation in the hHa1 gene creates a smaller, but still functional, hair protein without causing hair problems.
research Do Changes in Chromosomes Cause Aging?
Chromosomal changes, including those in the WRN gene and rDNA, may significantly contribute to aging.
research Rare and common genetic determinants of metabolic individuality and their effects on human health
Genetic variations greatly affect individual metabolism and can impact health and disease risk.
