Mice with the 'lanceolate hair' mutation have abnormal hair and skin similar to human Netherton's syndrome.
research Dissecting hair breakage in alopecia areata: the central role of dysregulated cysteine homeostasis
Disrupted cysteine metabolism may cause hair breakage in Alopecia Areata, suggesting potential treatments like N-acetylcysteine.
research Monilethrix: Beaded hair and hypotrichosis in a child
A 9-year-old girl has a rare hair disorder causing beaded, sparse hair.
research The hair shaft: normality, abnormality, and genetics
Hair microscopy is useful for diagnosing hair disorders, but clear definitions are needed for accurate genetic analysis.
research Hypotrichosis and Hair Loss on the Occipital Scalp
A baby girl has a hair disorder called monilethrix, causing fragile hair that may improve over time.
research Clinical relevance of hair microscopy in alopecia
Hair microscopy is useful for diagnosing certain hair loss conditions but has limitations and must be interpreted carefully.
research Complex X chromosome rearrangement associated with multiorgan autoimmunity
A complex X chromosome rearrangement can increase the risk of multiple autoimmune diseases.
research Secondary Cicatricial and other Permanent Alopecias
The document concludes that permanent hair loss conditions are complex, require early specific treatments, and "secondary permanent alopecias" might be a more accurate term than "secondary cicatricial alopecia."
research Common genetic hair shaft abnormalities may be visualized by light and electron microscope
Genetic hair shaft abnormalities can be seen with microscopes and often affect scalp hair.
research Cutaneous signals of immune system disease
Skin issues can indicate immune system problems.
research Organization and Expression of Hair Follicle Genes.
Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.
research New familial association between ocular coloboma and loose anagen syndrome
Two siblings were the first reported cases of inheriting both eye coloboma and loose anagen syndrome together.
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.
research Hidradenitis Suppurativa/Acne Inversa/Dissecting Terminal Hair Folliculitis
Hidradenitis Suppurativa is a chronic skin condition best treated early with surgery for better outcomes and less recurrence.
research Hair and nail disorders of childhood
The document concludes that various childhood hair and nail disorders exist, some may improve on their own, and advances in genetics and immunology could enhance treatment and counseling.
research Hair Disorders
Understanding normal hair growth and loss in children is key to diagnosing and treating hair disorders.
research Deletion of the Developmentally Essential Gene ATR in Adult Mice Leads to Age-Related Phenotypes and Stem Cell Loss
Removing the ATR gene in adult mice causes rapid aging and stem cell loss.

Hoxc13 gene is essential for hair, nail, and papilla development.
research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases
The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.
research Promotion of homology-directed DNA repair by polyamines
Polyamines help fix DNA damage accurately in cells.
research The proteomic profile of hair damage
Bleaching hair damages protein structure, especially keratin, leading to weakened hair.
research A Systematic Approach to Afro-Textured Hair Disorders
Dermatoscopy helps diagnose hair and scalp disorders in people with Afro-textured hair, but more research is needed for better understanding and treatment.
research High-confidence cancer patient stratification through multiomics investigation of DNA repair disorders
CEP135 may predict cancer outcomes, and targeting PLK1 could help treat certain sarcomas.
research Cross-linked features of mouse pelage hair resistant to detergent extraction
Some mutant mice have hair with abnormal cross-linking, mainly in the cuticle, not affecting other hair parts.
research Hair shaft disorders: a rare case series
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and treatment of hair shaft disorders require understanding their unique causes and avoiding hair-damaging practices.
research Inherited Epidermolysis Bullosa: A Clinical Case
A 37-year-old male with severe skin and internal issues has a rare inherited skin condition called dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.
research Nonscarring Alopecias
