research An important role of podoplanin in hair follicle growth
Deleting podoplanin in mice promotes hair growth by enhancing cell migration.
research Subclinical speckled perifollicular melanosis of the scalp.
The scalp has a natural speckled pattern of increased pigment around hair follicles, possibly linked to local hormone production.
research Hair follicle aging is driven by transepidermal elimination of stem cells via COL17A1 proteolysis
Hair loss and aging are caused by the breakdown of a key protein in hair stem cells.
research The role of functional variants in the aetiology of polycystic ovary syndrome
A new genetic variant in the EEF2K gene may contribute to polycystic ovary syndrome.
research 414 A new form of ectodermal dysplasia caused by mutations in TSPEAR

research Frontal fibrosing alopecia in postmenopausal women
Some postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia stopped losing hair with finasteride treatment, hinting at a possible hormonal cause.
research Alopecia Universalis Associated with Cutaneous T Cell Lymphoma
Some patients with a type of skin lymphoma can experience a rare, non-scarring hair loss that looks like another hair loss condition but has distinct features.
research Decision letter: Loss of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b does not affect epidermal homeostasis but promotes squamous transformation through PPAR-γ
Loss of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b increases aggressive skin tumors by affecting PPAR-γ.
research Influence of TRPV3 mutation on hair growth cycle in mice
The TRPV3 gene mutation affects hair growth by keeping mice in the growth phase longer, which could help treat hair loss.
