research Common Variants in the Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin (SHBG) Gene Influence SHBG Levels in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Certain SHBG gene variants, like rs727428, are linked to higher testosterone levels in women with PCOS.
research The Genetics of Human Skin Disease
Genetic research has advanced our understanding of skin diseases, but complex conditions require an integrative approach for deeper insight.
research Polyclonal origin and hair induction ability of dermal papillae in neonatal and adult mouse back skin
Dermal papillae cells, important for hair growth, come from multiple cell lines and can be formed by skin cells, regardless of their origin or hair cycle phase. These cells rarely divide, but their ability to shape tissue may contribute to their efficiency in inducing hair growth.
research Mutations in the vitamin D receptor gene in four patients with hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets
Four patients with a type of rickets and hair loss had different mutations in their vitamin D receptor gene, causing it to not work properly.

Gene linked to common hair loss found, may lead to new treatments.
research Crosstalk between androgen and Wnt/β-catenin leads to changes of wool density in FGF5-knockout sheep
Blocking the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to more fine wool and active hair follicles due to changes in certain cell signaling pathways.
research Metabolic and pathologic profiles of human LSS deficiency recapitulated in mice
Mice with LSS deficiency showed hair loss and cataracts, similar to humans, and can help in understanding and treating this condition.
research Identification of a novelPNPLA1mutation in a Spanish family with autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis
A new gene mutation linked to a skin condition was found in a Spanish family.
research The HPV16 oncogenes cause aberrant stem cell mobilization
HPV16 oncogenes disrupt the normal activity of hair follicle stem cells.
research Evaluation of androgen receptor gene as a candidate gene in female androgenetic alopecia
AR gene not major factor in female hair loss; different from male hair loss.

Liposomal anthracyclines are effective and safer for treating multiple myeloma, especially in elderly patients.
research Unraveling the Molecular Mechanisms of Hair and Nail Genodermatoses
Genetic discoveries are key for understanding, diagnosing, and treating inherited hair and nail disorders.
research A Monoallelic Two-Hit Mechanism in PLCD1 Explains the Genetic Pathogenesis of Hereditary Trichilemmal Cyst Formation
A specific gene change plus an additional mutation in the same gene cause hereditary trichilemmal cysts.
research Genetic variants in pachyonychia congenita-associated keratins increase susceptibility to tooth decay
Certain genetic variants in keratins increase the risk of tooth decay.
research Investigation of four novel male androgenetic alopecia susceptibility loci: no association with female pattern hair loss
No link found between new male baldness genes and female hair loss.
research Morphogenesis and maintenance of the 3D thymic medulla and prevention of nude skin phenotype require FoxN1 in pre- and post-natal K14 epithelium
FoxN1 gene is essential for proper thymus structure and preventing hair loss.
research Alopecia in Epidermolysis Bullosa
The document suggests that certain protein deficiencies and scalp blistering in Epidermolysis Bullosa may cause hair loss.
research 5α‐Reductase inhibitors and prostatic disease
5α-Reductase inhibitors can help treat hair loss, acne, and prostate issues by reducing DHT levels.
research How Should Educators and Publishers Eliminate Racial Essentialism?
Educators and publishers should focus on teaching racism as the cause of health inequity and ensure fair use of race in materials.
research Developmental genetics of color pattern establishment in cats
Cat color patterns are determined early in development by gene expression and epidermal changes, with the Dickkopf 4 gene playing a crucial role.
research Hes1 regulates anagen initiation and hair follicle regeneration through modulation of hedgehog signaling
Hes1 protein is important for hair growth and regeneration, and could be a potential treatment for hair loss.
research Integrative analysis of rare copy number variants and gene expression data in alopecia areata implicates an aetiological role for autophagy
The research suggests that autophagy-related genes might play a role in causing alopecia areata.
