research Computational derivation of a molecular framework for hair follicle biology from disease genes
The research provides a gene-based framework for hair biology, highlighting the Hippo pathway's importance and suggesting links between hair disorders, cancer pathways, and the immune system.
research Oral cyclosporin does not arrest progression of androgenetic alopecia
Cyclosporin doesn't stop hair loss.
research Alopecia Areata: A tissue specific autoimmune disease of the hair follicle
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss due to the immune system attacking hair follicles, often influenced by genetics and stress.
