research Heterozygous FOXN1 Variants Cause Low TRECs and Severe T Cell Lymphopenia, Revealing a Crucial Role of FOXN1 in Supporting Early Thymopoiesis
FOXN1 gene variants cause low T cells and immune issues from birth.
research Susceptibility variants on chromosome 7p21.1 suggest HDAC9 as a new candidate gene for male-pattern baldness
A gene called HDAC9 might be a new factor in male-pattern baldness.
research Safety of testosterone use in women
Short-term testosterone therapy in women seems safe with few mild side effects, but long-term effects need more research.
research FGFR2 is associated with hair thickness in Asian populations
A gene variation is linked to hair thickness in Asians.
research Control by a hair’s breadth: the role of microRNAs in the skin
MicroRNAs play a crucial role in skin and hair health, affecting everything from growth to aging, and could potentially be used in treating skin diseases.
research Macrophages Promote Wound-Induced Hair Follicle Regeneration in a CX3CR1- and TGF-β1–Dependent Manner
Macrophages help hair growth after injury through CX3CR1 and TGF-β1.
research Planar cell polarity-dependent and independent functions in the emergence of tissue-scale hair follicle patterns
Mice can correct hair follicle orientation without certain genes, but proper overall alignment needs those genes.
research The influence of sulfur and hair growth on stable isotope diet estimates for grizzly bears
Sulfur slightly improved diet estimates for grizzly bears, but hair growth timing varied, affecting results.
