research Androgen Regulation of the Human Hair Follicle: The Type I Hair Keratin hHa7 Is a Direct Target Gene in Trichocytes
The hHa7 gene is regulated by androgens in certain body hair, not scalp hair.
research A Variable Monilethrix Phenotype Associated With a Novel Mutation, Glu402Lys, in the Helix Termination Motif of the Type II Hair Keratin hHb1
A new mutation, Glu402Lys, in hair keratin is linked to variable symptoms of monilethrix.
