A new genetic mutation linked to CARASIL syndrome and small artery disease was found in a Chinese family.
research Endoplasmic reticulum stress at the crossroads of progeria and atherosclerosis
A defective protein in progeria causes cell death and atherosclerosis, but a treatment targeting cell stress may reduce these effects.

research Skin features in myotonic dystrophy type 1: An observational study
People with Myotonic Dystrophy type 1 are more likely to have certain skin conditions, but not more likely to get skin cancer.
research Clinical features, with video documentation, of the original familial lewy body parkinsonism caused by α‐synuclein triplication (Iowa kindred)
The document describes a woman with familial Parkinson's disease due to a genetic mutation, showing severe symptoms and poor response to treatment, and suggests finasteride may help reduce symptoms in Tourette syndrome.
research 137 Loss of myeloid Mcpip1 suppresses hair growth and development of epidermal papilloma of the skin
Removing MCPIP1 from myeloid cells in mice leads to hair loss and prevents skin tumors but causes pigmented spots.
research Fibrosing Alopecia in a Pattern Distribution
Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution is a type of hair loss that may often be overlooked, especially in men.
