Two siblings both had a rare case of alopecia areata at the same time.
research Diagnosis: Alopecia areata or not?
Scalp biopsies are essential for accurately diagnosing alopecia areata.
research Intractable Diffuse Alopecia Caused by Multifactorial Side-Effects in Treatment of Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia: Connection to Iatrogenic Failure of Estrogen Secretion
The patient's long-term hair loss was caused by leukemia treatments and low estrogen levels, worsened by her genetic tendency for hair loss.
research Autosomal recessive hypotrichosis simplex with woolly hair: a report of a new family
Two siblings were found to have a genetic condition causing progressive hair loss and woolly hair, which may often be misdiagnosed.
research Hair Today
The document concludes that understanding hair biology is key to treating hair disorders, with gene therapy showing potential as a future treatment.
research Skin Care Properties of Grape Seed Polyphenols, a By-Product of the Winery Industry
Grape seed extract is good for skin care, with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer effects.
research Klinefelter syndrome and chronic leg ulcers
A man with Klinefelter syndrome had a leg ulcer that didn't heal well, even with treatment.
research Molecular Mechanisms Regulating Hair Follicle Development
Understanding hair follicle development can help treat hair loss, skin regeneration, and certain skin cancers.
research A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determination, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin.
Keratin expression reflects cell organization and differentiation, not causes it.
research Hair follicle immune privilege and its collapse in alopecia areata
Hair follicles are normally protected from the immune system, but when this protection fails, it can cause hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Integument pattern formation involves genetic and epigenetic controls: feather arrays simulated by digital hormone models.
Feather patterns form through genetic and epigenetic controls, with cells self-organizing into periodic patterns.
research Genomic Organization, Transcriptomic Analysis, and Functional Characterization of Avian α- and β-Keratins in Diverse Feather Forms
Feather diversity is due to different keratin gene combinations, and chickens can help study human keratin diseases.
research Chemotherapy-Induced Hair Loss: The Use of Biomarkers for Predicting Alopecic Severity and Treatment Efficacy
Scalp cooling to prevent hair loss from chemotherapy works for some but not all, and studying hair damage markers could improve prevention and treatment.
