180-210 / 1000+ resultsresearch Rickets with alopecia: An inborn error of vitaminD metabolism
Two sisters with rickets and hair loss had a genetic issue with vitamin D processing, and only improved when given phosphorus supplements.
research 494 Congenital generalized hypertrichosis with a copy number variation on chromosome 17q24
A girl with excessive hair growth had a genetic change on chromosome 17 that reduced the activity of two genes linked to hair growth.
research Identification of reptilian genes encoding hair keratin-like proteins suggests a new scenario for the evolutionary origin of hair
Reptiles have genes similar to hair proteins, suggesting hair's genetic origins predate mammals.
research Female Androgenetic (?) Alopecia
Female pattern hair loss is different from male pattern hair loss and has unclear genetic causes.
research Chemoprevention – History and general principles
Cancer prevention has progressed with successful drugs and vaccines, but challenges remain in understanding genetic changes and improving strategies.
research Symposium Proceedings of the 4th Intercontinental Meeting of Hair Research Societies: “The World of Hair 2004”
The 2004 hair research meeting presented new findings on hair cell differentiation, genetic factors in hair loss, hair pigmentation, and potential targeted therapies.
research Hair Diseases (Alopecia Areata and Androgenetic Alopecia)
Alopecia areata, a type of hair loss, may be passed through T cells and has genetic links, while treatments vary in effectiveness. Male pattern baldness can be treated with finasteride and is influenced by androgens in hair follicles.
research Characterization of Hair Follicle Antigens Targeted by the Anti-Hair Follicle Immune Response
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder causing hair loss, linked to specific hair follicle antigens and genetic factors.
research Biochemical and trichological characterization of diffuse alopecia in women
Diffuse alopecia in women may be related to androgens and iron deficiency, and basic hormone and nutrient screening is useful.
research Regionalisation of the skin
Skin varies in thickness, color, and features due to complex genetic and cellular processes.
research Inheritance-Specific Dysregulation of Th1- and Th17-Associated Cytokines in Alopecia Areata
Certain immune-related proteins are higher in people with alopecia and their healthy relatives, hinting at a genetic link.
research Trailing the Path to Preventive Oncology
Preventing cancer involves lifestyle changes, vaccinations, early screening, and understanding cancer's molecular basis.
research Hair and Nail Manifestations of Systemic Disease
Early baldness in men may indicate risks for obesity, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and heart disease, similar to women with PCOS. Alopecia areata is often linked with autoimmune diseases and mental health issues. Certain hair disorders are due to genetic issues, and chemotherapy can cause hair loss through specific biological pathways. Iron deficiency's link to hair loss is still disputed.
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 Regulatory mutations in TBX3 disrupt asymmetric hair pigmentation that underlies Dun camouflage color in horses
Mutations in TBX3 cause horses to have more even hair color instead of Dun camouflage.
research Novel and recurrent mutations in the AIRE gene of autoimmune polyendocrinopathy syndrome type 1 (APS1) patients
Arab APS1 patients have unique and recurrent AIRE gene mutations.
research Siberian cats help in solving part of the mystery surrounding golden cats
The CORIN gene variant causes the golden color in Siberian cats.
research Several variants on chromosome 10 are associated with coarse hair diameter in Dazu black goats (Capra hircus)
Variants on chromosome 10 affect hair thickness in Dazu black goats.
research Ichthyosis, Follicular Atrophoderma, and Hypotrichosis Caused by Mutations in ST14 Is Associated with Impaired Profilaggrin Processing
Mutations in the ST14 gene cause skin and hair issues by disrupting important protein processing.
research A replication study confirmed the EDAR gene to be a major contributor to population differentiation regarding head hair thickness in Asia
The EDAR gene greatly affects hair thickness in Asian populations.
research Goat Genomic Resources: The Search for Genes Associated with Its Economic Traits
Identifying specific genes helps improve goat breeding for better traits like growth and milk production.
research Position effect on FGF13 associated with X-linked congenital generalized hypertrichosis
FGF13 gene changes cause excessive hair growth in a rare condition.
research Genes for Hair and Avian Keratins
Keratin genes help explain how hair and feathers develop differently in mammals and birds.
research The mouse frizzy (fr) and rat ‘hairless’ (frCR) mutations are natural variants of protease serine S1 family member 8 (Prss8)
The frizzy mouse and hairless rat mutations are due to changes in the Prss8 gene.
research De novo mutations in monilethrix
Specific keratin gene mutations can cause monilethrix.
research Integrated miRNA-mRNA analysis reveals regulatory pathways underlying the curly fleece trait in Chinese tan sheep
Researchers found genes and microRNAs that control curly fleece in Chinese Tan sheep.
research Identification of genes influencing formation of the Type III Brush Hair in Yangtze River Delta white goats by differential display of mRNA
Researchers found genes that affect hair growth in Yangtze River Delta white goats.
research Identification of Potential Hub Genes in Alopecia Areata
CD8A and FOXD2-AS1 may be key for diagnosing and treating alopecia areata.
research Coloration in Equine: Overview of Candidate Genes Associated with Coat Color Phenotypes
Genes like MC1R, TYR, MITF, ASIP, and KIT determine horse and donkey coat colors and affect breeding and health.
