Coats' Plus is a genetic disorder with eye abnormalities, brain calcification, poor growth, bone and skin issues, and movement disorders.
research Identifying novel strategies for treating human hair loss disorders: Cyclosporine A suppresses the Wnt inhibitor, SFRP1, in the dermal papilla of human scalp hair follicles
Cyclosporine A may help treat hair loss by blocking a protein that inhibits hair growth.
research Targeted Skin Overexpression of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor in Mice Causes Epidermal Atrophy, Premature Skin Barrier Formation, Eye Abnormalities, and Alopecia
Overexpressing the mineralocorticoid receptor in mouse skin causes skin thinning, early skin barrier development, eye issues, and hair loss.
research Mechanical forces in skin disorders
Skin problems can be caused or worsened by physical forces and pressure on the skin.
research External light activates hair follicle stem cells through eyes via an ipRGC–SCN–sympathetic neural pathway
Light can turn on hair growth cells through a nerve path starting in the eyes.
research Anagen effluvium
Hair usually grows back 1-3 months after treatment for anagen effluvium, and children with Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome often improve by adolescence.
research Genome-wide association study in Japanese females identifies fifteen novel skin-related trait associations
Researchers found 15 new genetic links to skin traits in Japanese women.
research Optimal Management of Hair Loss (Alopecia) in Children
Effective management of children's hair loss involves accurate diagnosis, various treatments, and supportive care.
research Practical Guidelines for Evaluation of Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome
Loose anagen hair syndrome, often affecting young girls, can be diagnosed with a hair-pull test and usually gets better on its own, but severe cases may need treatment.
research SCALP HAIR CHARACTERISTICS IN THE NEWBORN INFANT
Assessing newborn scalp hair can reveal important health information.
research Hair Growth Induction: Roles of Growth Factors
EGF and FGF help hair growth by affecting cell differentiation and fiber growth.
research Genome-wide meta-analysis implicates mediators of hair follicle development and morphogenesis in risk for severe acne
Genetic variations affecting skin structure play a key role in severe acne.
research Congenital hair loss disorders: Rare, but not too rare
Some hair loss disorders are caused by genetic mutations affecting hair growth.
research Tissue resident and follicular Treg cell differentiation is regulated by CRAC channels
CRAC channels are crucial for the development and function of specialized immune cells, preventing severe inflammation and autoimmune diseases.
research Label Retaining Cells (LRCs) with Myoepithelial Characteristic from the Proximal Acinar Region Define Stem Cells in the Sweat Gland
Sweat gland stem cells help maintain glands, aid wound healing, and can regenerate skin structures.
research Comparative Transcriptome Analysis Reveals that a Ubiquitin-Mediated Proteolysis Pathway Is Important for Primary and Secondary Hair Follicle Development in Cashmere Goats
The ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis pathway is crucial for hair follicle development in cashmere goats.
research Eyebrow Loss
Eyebrow loss has many causes and requires accurate diagnosis for proper treatment.
research The Genetics of Human Skin Disease
Genetic research has advanced our understanding of skin diseases, but complex conditions require an integrative approach for deeper insight.
research To Control Site-Specific Skin Gene Expression, Autocrine Mimics Paracrine Canonical Wnt Signaling and Is Activated Ectopically in Skin Disease
The research suggests that a specific skin gene can be controlled by signals within and between cells and is wrongly activated in certain skin diseases.
research Clinicoepidemiological Observational Study of Acquired Alopecias in Females Correlating with Anemia and Thyroid Function
The study concluded that hair loss in Indian women is not significantly linked to anemia or thyroid problems, but checking thyroid function could help those with ongoing hair loss.
research Unruly hair
The document concludes that unruly hair can be congenital or acquired, often lacks specific treatments, and can be managed with oils and short hairstyles.

research The inconsistent regulation of HOXC13 on different keratins and the regulation mechanism on HOXC13 in cashmere goat (Capra hircus)
The HOXC13 gene affects different hair proteins in cashmere goats in varied ways and is controlled by a feedback loop and other factors.
research Identification of factors contributing to phenotypic divergence via quantitative image analyses of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with homozygous c.736T>ALIPH mutation
Different hair fiber development might explain why hair loss severity varies in patients with a specific genetic mutation, and treatments that thicken hair could help.
research <i>In vitro</i> Assembly Properties of Human Type I and II Hair Keratins
Different combinations of human hair keratins affect how hair fibers form.
