research 14. Wound Healing; Cutaneous Therapy; Hair
A device was made in 2008 to measure hair loss severity. Other findings include: frizzy mutation in mice isn't related to Fgfr2, C/EBPx marks preadipocytes, Cyclosporin A speeds up hair growth in mice, blocking plasmin and metalloproteinases hinders healing, hyperbaric oxygen helps ischemic wound healing, amniotic membranes heal wounds better than polyurethane foam, rhVEGF165 from a fibrin matrix improves tissue flap viability and induces VEGF-R2 expression, and bFGF enhances wound healing and reduces scarring in rabbits.
research Mutations in Three Genes Encoding Proteins Involved in Hair Shaft Formation Cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome
Mutations in three genes cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome, leading to frizzy hair that can't be combed flat.
research Uncombable hair syndrome and beyond
Uncombable hair syndrome causes frizzy hair and can affect the nervous system, eyes, and ears, often co-occurring with other hair, skin, nail, and teeth conditions, and is linked to three specific gene mutations.
research Ugreelig hår
A young boy's uncombable hair is due to a rare genetic condition that usually improves over time.

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 Kyoto Rhino Rats Derived by ENU Mutagenesis Undergo Congenital Hair Loss and Exhibit Focal Glomerulosclerosis

A gene deletion causes the "hairless" trait in Iffa Credo rats.
research Polygenic control of the wavy coat of the NCT mouse: involvement of an intracisternal A particle insertional mutation of the protease, serine 53 (Prss53) gene, and a modifier gene
The wavy coat in NCT mice is caused by multiple genes, including a mutation in the Prss53 gene.
research Transglutaminase 3: The Involvement in Epithelial Differentiation and Cancer
TGM3 is important for skin and hair structure and may help diagnose cancer.
research Genetic Susceptibility to Alopecia
Certain mutations in the PADI3 gene may increase the risk of developing a type of scarring hair loss common in women of African descent.
research Spontaneous Quick Resolution of Uncombable Hair Syndrome-Like Disease
A boy's hair that was frizzy and hard to comb returned to normal after 9 months, possibly due to genetic factors.
research The hair shaft: normality, abnormality, and genetics
Hair microscopy is useful for diagnosing hair disorders, but clear definitions are needed for accurate genetic analysis.
research Asian Hair: A Review of Structures, Properties, and Distinctive Disorders

research Common genetic hair shaft abnormalities may be visualized by light and electron microscope
Genetic hair shaft abnormalities can be seen with microscopes and often affect scalp hair.
research Uncombable hair syndrome due to maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 1
A person got uncombable hair syndrome from two copies of chromosome 1 from their mother.
research Animal models of alopecia
The best animal model for studying male-pattern baldness is the stumptailed macaque, not rats or mice.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: annotated tables
Mutant mice help researchers understand hair growth and related genetic factors.
research Loose anagen hair syndrome
Loose Anagen Syndrome is a hair condition where hairs can be easily pulled out, mainly affecting young girls, and may improve on its own or with treatment.
