Selective breeding caused the unique curly hair in Mangalitza pigs.
research Secretory phospholipase A2-IIA overexpressing mice exhibit cyclic alopecia mediated through aberrant hair shaft differentiation and impaired wound healing response
Mice with too much sPLA₂-IIA have hair loss and poor wound healing due to abnormal hair growth and stem cell depletion.
research Hair follicle morphogenesis and epidermal homeostasis in we/we wal/wal mice with postnatal alopecia
The we/we wal/wal mice have defects in hair growth and skin layer formation, causing hair loss, useful for understanding alopecia.
research Alopecia in women submitted to childhood X-ray epilation for tinea capitis treatment
Women treated with X-ray for scalp fungus as children had a higher chance of hair loss, especially with higher radiation doses and severe fungus infections.
research RoPod, a customizable toolkit for non-invasive root imaging, reveals cell type-specific dynamics of plant autophagy
RoPod helps study plant root cell changes and autophagy with minimal stress.
research Polycomb repressive complex 2 in adult hair follicle stem cells is dispensable for hair regeneration
Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 is not needed for hair regeneration.
research A Case of Familial Male-limited Precocious Puberty with a Novel Mutation
A boy with a rare form of early puberty caused by a new gene mutation responded well to treatment aimed at reducing testosterone and preserving adult height.
research Clinical, pathological, and molecular features of classical and L-type atypical-BSE in goats
Both classical and L-type atypical BSE from cattle can infect goats with different incubation times, and tests can distinguish between the two strains.
research Predicting Human Appearance from DNA for Forensic Investigations
DNA can predict physical traits like eye and hair color accurately, especially in Europeans, but predicting other traits and in diverse populations needs more research.
research Hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets in Lebanese patients: the p.R391S and p.H397P variants have different phenotypes
Two different mutations in the vitamin D receptor gene cause different symptoms and responses to treatment in Lebanese patients with hereditary rickets.
research Genetic determinants of skin ageing: a systematic review and meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies and candidate genes
Certain genes are linked to skin aging, like wrinkles and pigmentation changes.
research Setting reference values in trichology
Normal hair density and diameter ratios were established to help diagnose adult hair loss.
research The hair growth promoting effect of 4-O-methylhonokiol
4-O-methylhonokiol from Magnolia officinalis significantly promotes hair growth.
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 Growth of the Mouse Coat VII. Hair Cycles and Sebaceous Glands in Homozygous and Heterozygous Naked Mice
The Naked gene in mice causes abnormal sebaceous glands and disrupts hair follicle organization.
research Adult Patients with Aphallia: Were they Fertile?

research 312 CRISPR/Cas9-based targeted genome editing for correction of recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa using iPS cells
The research showed that CRISPR/Cas9 can fix mutations causing a skin disease in stem cells, which then improved skin grafts in mice, but more work on safety and efficiency is needed.
research Analysis of Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) Gene Polymorphisms in Alopecia Areata
Vitamin D receptor gene changes don't affect alopecia areata risk.
research Acupuncture in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Potential and Challenge
Acupuncture may improve reproductive and metabolic functions in PCOS without negative side effects, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.
