Hair differentiation starts earlier than thought, involving multiple type-II keratins.
research Women with clinically significant hirsutism always have detectable endocrinological abnormalities
Most women with excessive hair growth have a hormonal cause.
research The Near-Naked Hairless (Hr) Mutation Disrupts Hair Formation but Is Not Due to a Mutation in the Hairless Coding Region
The near-naked hairless mutation causes hair loss but is not due to a mutation in the hairless gene itself.
research Cloning of the human phenol sulfotransferase gene family: three genes implicated in the metabolism of catecholamines, thyroid hormones and drugs
Scientists identified three genes important for processing certain brain chemicals, thyroid hormones, and medications.
research The naked truth: Sphynx and Devon Rex cat breed mutations in KRT71
Sphynx cats are hairless and Devon Rex cats have curly hair due to specific genetic mutations.

A mutation in the VDR gene affects hair cycling without needing ligand binding.
research A missense mutation in the type II hair keratin hHb3 is associated with monilethrix
A mutation in the hHb3 gene is linked to the hair disorder monilethrix.
research Hairless Up‐Regulates Tgf‐β2 Expression via Down‐Regulation of miR‐31 in the Skin of “Hairpoor” (HrHp) Mice
HR protein causes abnormal hair cycles by increasing Tgf-β2 and reducing miR-31.
research Isolation and characterization of genomic clones of human sequences presumably coding for hair cysteine-rich proteins
A new protein linked to hair strength was identified, aiding in understanding brittle hair conditions.
research 647 Alternative splicing factor Esrp1 controls homeostasis of skins by regulating barrier formation and function
Esrp1 is important for skin health by helping form and maintain the skin barrier.
research A STUDY ON CLINICAL PROFILE OF PATIENTS WITH HIRSUTISM
Most women with excess hair growth had Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, and severity wasn't linked to hormone levels.
research A unique insertion/duplication in the VDR gene that truncates the VDR causing hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets without alopecia
A unique gene mutation causes vitamin D-resistant rickets without causing hair loss.
research Androgen Conjugates: Physiology and Clinical Significance
Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.
research Exploring the Clinical and Investigational Profile of Females With Hirsutism at a Tertiary Care Center
PCOS is the main cause of hirsutism, often linked to insulin resistance.
research Helpful diagnostic markers of steroidogenesis for defining hyperandrogenemia in hirsute women
The study concluded that androstendione and DHEA are important for diagnosing high male hormone levels in women with excessive hair growth.
research Ligand‐independent Regulation of the hairless Promoter by Vitamin D Receptor†
