research 494 Congenital generalized hypertrichosis with a copy number variation on chromosome 17q24
A girl with excessive hair growth had a genetic change on chromosome 17 that reduced the activity of two genes linked to hair growth.
research Abstracts Presented at the 12th Joint Meeting of the International Society of Dermatopathology, March 4-5, 2009, Marines Memorial Club & Hotel, San Francisco, CA, USA
Mast cells play a significant role in hair loss conditions like male pattern hair loss and alopecia areata.
research SRD5A3 Is Required for Converting Polyprenol to Dolichol and Is Mutated in a Congenital Glycosylation Disorder
Mutations in the SRD5A3 gene cause a new type of glycosylation disorder by blocking the production of a molecule necessary for protein glycosylation.
research Male-pattern baldness susceptibility locus at 20p11
Researchers found a new gene area linked to male-pattern baldness, which, along with another gene, significantly increases the risk of hair loss in men.
research THE PATHOGENESIS OF ALOPECIA AREATA
Alopecia areata is likely caused by a combination of genetic factors and immune system dysfunction, and may represent different diseases with various causes.
research Trans‐species hair growth induction by human hair follicle dermal papillae
Human hair follicle cells can grow hair when put into mouse skin if they stay in contact with mouse cells.
