FAPD is a possible diagnosis for hair loss in patients of color and requires multiple evaluations for accurate diagnosis.
research Inborn errors of biotin metabolism
Two genetic disorders affect biotin metabolism, causing severe skin, hair, and metabolic issues.
research Hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy
A rare genetic disease causes sparse hair and early blindness due to a gene mutation.
research Transcriptional Governance of Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence and Niche Maintenance in Long-Term Tissue Regeneration
FOXC1 is essential for keeping hair follicle stem cells inactive and maintaining their environment for healthy hair growth.

research Symptomatic zinc deficiency in a full-term breast-fed infant
Zinc supplements and weaning cured a breast-fed baby's zinc deficiency caused by a gene mutation.
research Recurrent E413K Mutation of hHb6 in a Japanese Family with Monilethrix
The E413K mutation in the hHb6 gene causes monilethrix, a hair disorder, but doesn't show consistent symptoms.
research Zinc transporter ZIP13 G289R variant from Spondylocheirodysplastic Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (SCD-EDS) is associated with abnormal hair quality
The ZIP13 variant is linked to abnormal hair quality.
research A new mutation in the type II hair cortex keratin hHb1 involved in the inherited hair disorder monilethrix
A new mutation in the hHb1 keratin gene is linked to the hair disorder monilethrix.
research ESDR333 – Poor perifollicular vascularization is associated with nutrient insufficiency and a quiescent metabolic phenotype in intermediate hair follicles from patients with female pattern hair loss
research Sebaceous Gland, Hair Shaft, and Epidermal Barrier Abnormalities in Keratosis Pilaris with and without Filaggrin Deficiency
