research Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia: Retrospective Chart Review
The study found that Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia mainly affects middle-aged African descent women, is linked to certain hair care practices and genetics, and often goes undiagnosed for years.
research Distinct mechanisms underlie pattern formation in the skin and skin appendages
Different processes create patterns in skin and things like hair and feathers.

Darker hair may lead to higher cortisol readings, suggesting a need to adjust for hair color in studies.
research Cicatricial Alopecia Research Foundation meeting, May 2016: Progress towards the diagnosis, treatment and cure of primary cicatricial alopecias
The meeting focused on understanding, diagnosing, and finding treatments for irreversible hair loss diseases.
research Deciphering principles of morphogenesis from temporal and spatial patterns on the integument
The conclusion is that skin and hair patterns are formed by a mix of cell activities, molecular signals, and environmental factors.
research Update on the pathogenesis, genetics and medical treatment of patterned hair loss.
New genetic insights have improved understanding of hair loss, leading to a new test and treatments, but more research is needed on the test and laser comb effectiveness.
research Adrenal 21-hydroxylase gene mutations in Slovenian hyperandrogenic women: evaluation of corticotrophin stimulation and HLA polymorphisms in screening for carrier status
The study concluded that testing hormone levels after stimulation is not reliable for identifying carriers of 21-hydroxylase deficiency; genetic testing is necessary.
research Phenotype of Normal Hairline Maturation
Children's hairlines change shape as they grow, with women often developing a widow's peak and men's hairlines becoming more convex and possibly balding at the temples, influenced by genetics and hormones.
research Uncovering the complex relationship between balding, testosterone and skin cancers in men
Men with baldness are more prone to skin cancers on the scalp due to sun exposure, not testosterone.
research The disrupted balance between hair follicles and sebaceous glands inHoxc13‐ablated rabbits
Rabbits lacking the Hoxc13 gene show similar hair and skin issues to humans with ECTD-9, making them good for research on this condition.
research A novel missense mutation in the mouse hairless gene causes irreversible hair loss: Genetic and molecular analyses of Hrm1Enu
A new genetic mutation in mice causes permanent hair loss and skin wrinkling.
research Managing hair loss in midlife women
The conclusion is that proper evaluation and treatment of hair loss in midlife women is important, considering the emotional impact and potential for various treatments.
research PCOS: update and diagnostic approach
The document concludes that more research is needed to fully understand the causes of PCOS.
research The hairless gene in androgenetic alopecia: results of a systematic mutation screening and a family-based association approach
Hairless gene not strongly linked to baldness.
research Hair Coloration by Gene Regulation: Fact or Fiction?
Gene regulation could revolutionize hair color by altering pigmentation from within.
research Hair of the Dog: Identification of a Cis-Regulatory Module Predicted to Influence Canine Coat Composition
Researchers found a genetic region that influences the number of coat layers in dogs.
research New Biomarkers to Evaluate Hyperandrogenemic Women and Hypogonadal Men
The document concludes that hormonal biomarkers are key for diagnosing hyperandrogenemia in women and hypogonadism in men.
research Overexpression of alkaline phosphatase improves the hair-inductive capacity of cultured human dermal papilla spheres
Increasing alkaline phosphatase in human skin cells helps to grow more hair.
research Genetic analysis of interleukin 18 gene polymorphisms in alopecia areata
Certain IL-18 gene variations may increase the risk of alopecia areata.
research A frameshift insertion in SGK3 leads to recessive hairlessness in Scottish Deerhounds: a candidate gene for human alopecia conditions
A genetic mutation in the SGK3 gene causes hairlessness in Scottish Deerhounds and may relate to human hair loss.
research Genetics of Wool and Cashmere Fibre: Progress, Challenges, and Future Research
More research is needed to improve wool and cashmere quality through genetics.
research Analysis of pediatric dermatology inpatient consultations in a pediatric teaching hospital
Most hospitalized children with skin issues were boys, with allergic skin diseases like atopic dermatitis being most common, and treatments were usually topical.
research [Genetic dissection of retinoic acid function in epidermis physiology].
Retinoic acid affects skin and hair health by working with specific receptors, and its absence can lead to hair loss and skin changes.
