research Hair loss due to lichen planopilaris after hair transplantation: a report of two cases and a literature review * Perda pilosa por líquen plano pilar após transplante capilar: relato de dois casos e revisão da literatura
Hair transplants can cause hair loss if done while lichen planopilaris is active; wait until it's inactive for two years and check with a scalp biopsy first.
research Molecular genetics of androgen insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.
research Dissection of genetic variation and evidence for pleiotropy in male pattern baldness
Male pattern baldness is mostly inherited, involves many genes, and is linked to other traits like early puberty and strong bones.
research Investigation of the male pattern baldness major genetic susceptibility loci AR/EDA2R and 20p11 in female pattern hair loss
AR/EDA2R gene linked to early-onset female hair loss, but 20p11 gene not involved.
research The genetics of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata has a complex genetic basis that was not fully understood as of 2001.
research The Genetics of Seborrheic Dermatitis: A Candidate Gene Approach and Pilot Genome-Wide Association Study
No strong genetic link to other skin conditions was found, but some genetic factors may make people more likely to get seborrheic dermatitis.
research Three cases of androgen‐dependent disease associated with myotonic dystrophy
Women with myotonic dystrophy might get diseases related to male hormones because their body tissues are extra sensitive to these hormones.
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 Genetic correlation analysis does not associate male pattern baldness with COVID-19
There's no significant genetic link between male pattern baldness and COVID-19.
research Genetic variations associated with response to dutasteride in the treatment of male subjects with androgenetic alopecia
Genetic variations affect dutasteride treatment response for male pattern hair loss.
research 642 Uncovering the role of UV exposure history and genetics in determining skin sun damage
UV photography can help identify people at higher risk for skin cancer, and male pattern baldness at age 45 is linked to a higher risk of certain skin cancers.
research Genetics of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
PCOS has a strong genetic basis, but more research is needed to fully understand it.
research Genetic correlation by pedigree analysis in patients diagnosed with PCOS as per Rotterdam’s criteria
PCOS is likely inherited in families, increasing risk for first-degree relatives.
research Recent advances in the genetics of alopecia areata
New research has found 14 genes linked to the risk of developing alopecia areata, improving understanding and treatment options.
research Genetic alteration of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase subunit expression affects calcium currents and beta-endorphin release in AtT-20 clonal pituitary cells.
Changing protein kinase levels in pituitary cells affects calcium flow and beta-endorphin release.
research Three Cases of Canine Dermatomyositis-Like Disease
Tailored treatment plans are crucial for managing canine dermatomyositis-like disease.
research Generic competition and pharma patent strategies - a sequel
The article concludes that recent legal rulings have strengthened the protection of pharmaceutical patents against generic competition.
research Clinical-Exome Sequencing Unveils the Genetic Landscape of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) Focusing on Lean and Obese Phenotypes: Implications for Cost-Effective Diagnosis and Personalized Treatment
Young women in West Bengal, India, with PCOS often have estrogen resistance, leptin receptor issues, folate deficiency, T2DM, and acanthosis, commonly linked to obesity.
research Androgenetic alopecia in children: report of 20 cases
AGA can occur in children with family history; early diagnosis and treatment important.
research Molecular Genetic and Endocrine Mechanisms of Hair Growth
Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.
research Maternal western diet causes inflammatory milk and TLR2/4-dependent neonatal toxicity
A mother's western diet can make her milk toxic, causing inflammation and hair loss in babies.
research Loss of Keratin K2 Expression Causes Aberrant Aggregation of K10, Hyperkeratosis, and Inflammation
Loss of keratin K2 causes skin problems and inflammation.
research Deficient Plakophilin-1 Expression Due to a Mutation in PKP1 Causes Ectodermal Dysplasia-Skin Fragility Syndrome in Chesapeake Bay Retriever Dogs
A PKP1 gene mutation causes skin fragility and hair loss in Chesapeake Bay retriever puppies.
research Taking advantage from phenotype variability in a local animal genetic resource: identification of genomic regions associated with the hairless phenotype in Casertana pigs
Researchers found two genes that may explain why some Casertana pigs don't have hair.
research Advances in genetic and molecular understanding of Omenn syndrome - implications for the future
Newborn screening and gene therapy are expected to improve outcomes for Omenn syndrome patients.
research Pathogenesis and causes of hirsutism
Hirsutism is mainly caused by high androgen levels or sensitivity, with PCOS being the most common cause.
research Causes and management of Pica disorder among central Iraqi peoples
Pica disorder in central Iraq is mainly found in females and is linked to low iron levels; treatment with iron improves most patients.
research Improving human forensics through advances in genetics, genomics and molecular biology
DNA profiling in forensics has improved, but predicting physical traits and ancestry from DNA has limitations and requires ethical consideration.
