research Double-stranded RNA induces inflammation via the NF-κB pathway and inflammasome activation in the outer root sheath cells of hair follicles
Double-stranded RNA causes inflammation in hair follicle cells, which may help understand and treat alopecia areata.
research A new mutation resulting in the truncation of the TRAF6-interacting domain of XEDAR: a possible novel cause of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia: Figure 1
A new mutation in the XEDAR gene might cause a rare skin condition called hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.
research Experimental Confirmation of a Distinctive Diffraction Pattern in Hair From Women With Breast Cancer
A specific hair diffraction pattern may indicate breast cancer if tested with the correct method.

People with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia have no sweat ducts and less, thinner hair.
research Cross-linked features of mouse pelage hair resistant to detergent extraction
Some mutant mice have hair with abnormal cross-linking, mainly in the cuticle, not affecting other hair parts.
