research Mutational spectrum in 101 patients with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and breakpoint mapping in independent cases of rare genomic rearrangements
Researchers found genetic mutations causing hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in 88% of studied patients and identified new mutations and genetic variations affecting the disease.
research Analysis of 72,469 UK Biobank exomes links rare variants to male-pattern hair loss
Rare genetic variants in five specific genes are linked to male-pattern hair loss but only account for a small part of the risk.
research Asian Hair: A Review of Structures, Properties, and Distinctive Disorders
Asian hair is generally straight and thick, with unique disorders and properties, and more research is needed to understand it fully.
research Cosmeceutical Treatments for Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA is caused by genetics and androgens, treatable with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Global Landscapes of Human Phenotypic Variation in Inherited Traits
Different human traits like skin color and hair type vary between populations due to genetic adaptations to the environment.
research Transcriptome Reveals Long Non-coding RNAs and mRNAs Involved in Primary Wool Follicle Induction in Carpet Sheep Fetal Skin
Certain RNA molecules are important for the development of wool follicles in sheep.
research A Comprehensive Review of GWASs of Human Hair Traits
Genetic studies on hair traits can improve understanding of health and disease.
research A Tale of Two Haplotypes: The EDA2R/AR Intergenic Region is the Most Divergent Genomic Segment between Africans and East Asians in the Human Genome
The most different genetic segment between Africans and East Asians is the EDA2R/AR region, with two main types influenced by population changes and natural selection, and linked to baldness.
research p53‐dependent transcriptional regulation of EDA2R and its involvement in chemotherapy‐induced hair loss
The study concludes that the EDA2R gene is activated by p53 during chemotherapy but is not necessary for chemotherapy-induced hair loss.
research Two mutations at KRT74 and EDAR synergistically drive the fine-wool production in Chinese sheep
Two mutations in KRT74 and EDAR genes cause sheep to have finer wool.
research miR-29a-5p Inhibits Prenatal Hair Placode Formation Through Targeting EDAR by ceRNA Regulatory Network
miR-29a-5p prevents the formation of early hair structures by targeting a gene important for hair growth and is regulated by a complex network involving lncRNA627.1.
research Increased expression of Ectodysplasin A2 Receptor EDA2R is the most remarkable and ubiquitous aging-related transcriptional hallmark
The most common sign of aging at the gene level is more Ectodysplasin A2 Receptor (EDA2R) being made.
research Recent positive selection of a human androgen receptor/ectodysplasin A2 receptor haplotype and its relationship to male pattern baldness
A specific genetic mutation may increase male pattern baldness risk, especially in Europeans.
research The Roles of EDA2R in Ageing and Disease
EDA2R is a key gene linked to ageing and diseases, and targeting it may help treat conditions like hair loss and chronic diseases.
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 Inherited Disorders of the Hair
The document explains the genetic causes and characteristics of inherited hair disorders.
research The developmental basis of fingerprint pattern formation and variation
Fingerprints form uniquely before birth due to specific genetic pathways and local signals.
research Edar Signaling in the Control of Hair Follicle Development
Edar signaling is crucial for proper hair follicle development and function.
research Interplay between EDA-EDAR and WNT signalling pathways in the development of skin appendages in hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia
Restoring EDA and WNT pathways early may help improve skin, hair, and teeth issues in hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.
research Identification of dkk4 as a target of Eda-A1/Edar pathway reveals an unexpected role of ectodysplasin as inhibitor of Wnt signalling in ectodermal placodes
Ectodysplasin inhibits Wnt signaling to help form hair follicles.
research The biology and genetics of curly hair
Curly hair is influenced by specific genetic variations.
research Dermal β-catenin activity in response to epidermal Wnt ligands is required for fibroblast proliferation and hair follicle initiation
Skin needs dermal β-catenin activity for hair growth and skin cell multiplication.
research Morphogenesis, Growth Cycle and Molecular Regulation of Hair Follicles
Hair growth and health are influenced by factors like age, environment, and nutrition, and are controlled by various molecular pathways. Red light can promote hair growth, and understanding these processes can help treat hair-related diseases.
research Exploring links with rare variants, COVID-19 and short anagen hair syndrome
Rare genetic variants contribute to male pattern hair loss, but there's no link to severe COVID-19.
