research Diet and hair loss: effects of nutrient deficiency and supplement use
Correcting nutrient deficiencies may help with hair loss, but the benefits of supplements without a deficiency are uncertain and could be harmful.
research FOXN1 deficient nude severe combined immunodeficiency
FOXN1 gene mutations cause a rare, severe immune disease treatable with cell or tissue transplants.
research Are STK11 polymorphisms a predictor of the response to metformin in polycystic ovarian syndrome?
STK11 gene variations do not predict how well metformin will work for PCOS, but may affect hair loss and excess hair growth.
research Genetic Basis of Male Pattern Baldness
Male pattern baldness is largely genetic, linked to the androgen receptor gene, and may relate to certain health issues.
research Towards Defining the Pathogenesis of the Hairless Phenotype
The hairless gene mutation causes baldness by disrupting hair follicle structure.
research Hairless Suppresses Vitamin D Receptor Transactivation in Human Keratinocytes
Hairless protein can block vitamin D activation in skin cells.
research Characterization of hairless (Hr) and FGF5genes provides insights into the molecular basis of hair loss in cetaceans
Cetaceans lost hair due to changes in the Hr and FGF5 genes.
research Lysophospholipid Mediators in Health and Disease
Lysophospholipids like LPA and S1P are important for hair growth, immune responses, and vascular development, and could be targeted for treating diseases.
research CD34 defines melanocyte stem cell subpopulations with distinct regenerative properties
CD34+ and CD34- melanocyte stem cells have different regenerative abilities.
research Proline-rich protein-like PRPL1 controls elongation of root hairs in Arabidopsis thaliana

Certain genetic changes in the LSS gene cause a rare skin and hair condition.
research Clinical, biochemical and mutational findings in biotinidase deficiency among Malaysian population
Some children in Malaysia with symptoms have either profound or partial biotinidase deficiency, and early testing and treatment are important.
research Examination of epigenetic inhibitor zebularine in treatment of skin wounds in healthy and diabetic mice
Zebularine improved skin structure but delayed wound healing in diabetic mice.
research Alcohol extract from Vernonia anthelmintica willd (L.) seed counteracts stress-induced murine hair follicle growth inhibition
Alcohol extract from Vernonia anthelmintica seeds may help treat stress-related hair loss.
research Transcriptome profiling of whisker follicles in methamphetamine self-administered rats
Methamphetamine affects gene expression in rat whisker follicles, with key genes linked to addiction.
research P63 targeted deletion under the FOXN1 promoter disrupts pre-and post-natal thymus development, function and maintenance as well as induces severe hair loss
Deleting the p63 gene in certain cells causes problems in thymus development and severe hair loss in mice.
research SNP variation in male pattern hair loss in Russians with different dihydrotestosterone levels
Certain gene variations increase male hair loss risk, influenced by hormone levels.
research A Homozygous Missense Variant in K25 Underlying Overlapping Phenotype with Woolly Hair and Dental Anomalies
A specific mutation in the K25 gene causes a rare genetic disorder with curly hair at birth and later hair loss, along with dental issues.
research Repurposing With Purpose: Treatment of Bachmann–Bupp Syndrome With Eflornithine and Implications for Other Polyaminopathies
Eflornithine improved symptoms in Bachmann–Bupp Syndrome patients.
research Diseases of the Canine Prostate Gland
The main prostate diseases in dogs are benign growth, infections, and cancer, with various treatments ranging from drugs to surgery, but cancer treatments have limited success.
