Male pattern hair loss is mainly caused by genetics and hormones, especially DHT.
research Social selection favours offspring prone to the development of androgenetic alopecia.
Society's pressure to have children later in life favors genes that increase the risk of early baldness in male offspring.
research Cosmeceutical Treatments for Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA is caused by genetics and androgens, treatable with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Discordant phenotype in monozygotic twins with mosaic trisomy 12p in lymphocytes
Identical twins had different symptoms because one had more cells with an extra chromosome fragment in different tissues.
research A new tool for conditional gene manipulation in a subset of keratin‐expressing epithelia
The Megsin-Cre transgene is a new tool for genetic manipulation in the skin and upper digestive tract.
research Clinical Case Notes. Tamoxifen optic neuropathy
A boy with chromosome 13q deletion syndrome developed eye cancer, a woman with breast cancer lost vision due to a rare side-effect of her treatment, a man's vision worsened after using a hair loss drug, and two rare disorders were discussed. Optical Coherence Tomography is useful for diagnosing and monitoring these conditions.

Rare seminoma found in a 33-year-old woman with atypical genitalia and no Y chromosome.
research Acromegaloidism with normal growth hormone secretion associated with X-Tetrasomy
A woman with acromegaloidism and normal growth hormone levels had a rare X-Tetrasomy, suggesting a need to study X-chromosome genes for their role in growth and facial development.
research Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans. What Syndrome Is This?
Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans is a rare genetic disorder causing skin and hair issues, often inherited through the X chromosome.
research Defolliculated (Dfl): A Dominant Mouse Mutation Leading to Poor Sebaceous Gland Differentiation and Total Elimination of Pelage Follicles
The Dfl mutation in mice causes poor sebaceous gland function and complete hair loss.
