390-420 / 1000+ resultsresearch Trichothiodystrophy: an ultrastructural study of the hair follicle
Trichothiodystrophy causes abnormal protein deposits and distortion in hair follicles.
research The substantial role of asymmetric hair follicle differentiation in determining hair shape with ethical/racial related diversity
Asymmetric hair follicle differentiation causes the unique shape of kinky hair.
research Electrophoretic variability in human head hair: Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of hair proteins in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate and urea
Human head hair proteins can be typed into eight distinct patterns, useful for genetic and forensic investigations.
research Dynamic ultrastructural changes of the connective tissue sheath of human hair follicles during hair cycle
The connective tissue around hair follicles changes structure throughout the hair cycle.
research Alopecia totalis in an infant
An infant with complete hair loss was diagnosed with a genetic disorder affecting hair growth.
research Characterization of surface deposits on human hair fibers
research Monilethrix in pattern distribution in siblings: Diagnosis by trichoscopy
Trichoscopy can diagnose monilethrix, a genetic hair defect causing hair thinning and loss.
research The human hair follicle, a bistable organ?
Human hair follicles switch between active and resting phases unpredictably.
research Inherited Disorders of the Hair
The study concluded that genetic mutations affect human hair diseases and identified key genes and pathways involved in hair growth and cycling.
research Monilethrix: Beaded hair and hypotrichosis in a child
A 9-year-old girl has a rare hair disorder causing beaded, sparse hair.
research Polarized microscopy in genetic hair disorders: case series
Polarized microscopy helps identify hair irregularities in genetic disorders.
research Cortical cell types and intermediate filament arrangements correlate with fiber curvature in Japanese human hair
Hair curvature in Japanese people is linked to specific cell types and filament arrangements in the hair cortex.
research Expression of type I hair keratins in follicular tumours
Pilomatrixomas likely originate from the hair matrix due to changes in hair keratin expression.
research Hair follicle-specific keratins and their diseases
Only a few hair-specific keratins are linked to inherited hair disorders.
research Recurrent missense mutations in the hair keratin gene hHb6 in monilethrix
Mutations in the hHb6 gene cause the hair disorder monilethrix.
research Hypotrichosis and Hair Loss on the Occipital Scalp
A baby girl has a hair disorder called monilethrix, causing fragile hair that may improve over time.
research Hair Shaft Disorders
Hair shaft disorders cause fragile, brittle, and abnormal-looking hair.
research Expression pattern of human hair keratin basic 1 (hHbl) in hair follicle and pilomatricoma
hHbl gene is active in hair shaft cells and some pilomatricomas.
research Fine Structure of Perifollicular Nerve Endings in Human Hair
research Monilethrix: an ultrastructural study
Monilethrix hair issues are due to problems in the hair's internodes.
research Autosomal Recessive Hypotrichosis with Woolly Hair Caused by a Mutation in the Keratin 25 Gene Expressed in Hair Follicles
A mutation in the KRT25 gene causes a rare hair disorder with thin, woolly hair.
research 840 Early and late matrix progenitors form the terminally differentiated cell layers of the hair follicle
Early and late matrix progenitors in hair follicles create different cell layers, with early ones forming the companion layer and later ones forming the inner root sheath and hair shaft.
research Monilethrix: A Novel Mutation (Glu402Lys) in the Helix Termination Motif and the First Causative Mutation (Asn114Asp) in the Helix Initiation Motif of the Type II Hair Keratin hHb6
New mutations in hair keratin genes cause the rare hair disorder monilethrix.
research Histopathology of Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy
The research found that a specific gene mutation causes fewer hair follicles and disrupted hair growth cycles, leading to thin and short hair in people with Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy.
research Monilethrix
A 12-year-old girl was diagnosed with monilethrix, a genetic condition causing fragile, beaded hair that breaks easily, with no effective treatment available.
research Morphological Approach to Hair Disorders
Accurate clinical, histological, and genetic methods are key for understanding and treating hair disorders.
research Characterization of X‐linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XL‐HED) hair and sweat gland phenotypes using phototrichogram analysis and live confocal imaging
People with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia have no sweat ducts and less, thinner hair.
research AN UPDATE OF HAIR SHAFT DISORDERS
Advances in genetics may lead to targeted treatments for hair disorders.
research A STUDY OF THE DIFFERENTIATION PRODUCTS OF THE HAIR FOLLICLE CELLS WITH THE ELECTRON MICROSCOPE.
Hair follicle cells become four types: medulla, cortex, cuticle, and inner root sheath.
