research Molecular–clinical correlations in a family with variable tissue mitochondrial DNA T8993G mutant load
Tissue-specific variation in mutant load complicates genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis.
research Gene Delivery to the Hair Follicle
Gene therapy shows promise for treating hair loss by targeting hair follicles.
research Prognosis and Management of Congenital Hair Shaft Disorders with Fragility—Part I
Some congenital hair disorders improve in childhood or with treatments like minoxidil and retinoids, while others like Netherton syndrome and trichothiodystrophy have a poor prognosis.
research Human FOXN1-Deficiency Is Associated with αβ Double-Negative and FoxP3+ T-Cell Expansions That Are Distinctly Modulated upon Thymic Transplantation
Thymic transplantation normalized some T-cells but not others, maintaining immune function.
research Hair and nail adverse events during treatment with targeted therapies for metastatic melanoma
Targeted therapies for advanced skin cancer often cause hair and nail problems, which need managing to avoid changing the treatment dose.

People who carry the 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency gene are not more likely to have excessive male hormone levels.
research Molecular basis of hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy in two siblings
A specific gene mutation causes hair loss and potential eye issues, even if vision seems normal.

UV radiation causes skin cancer, but sunscreens and certain drugs can help prevent it.
research Severe form of keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness (KID) syndrome associated with septic complications
Infants with severe KID syndrome may be more prone to serious infections and need close monitoring.
research Unveiling the Roots of Monogenic Genodermatoses: Genotrichoses as a Paradigm
New gene identification techniques have improved the understanding and classification of inherited hair disorders.
research A Humanized Mouse Model of Hereditary 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D–Resistant Rickets Without Alopecia
Researchers created a mouse model of a type of rickets that does not cause hair loss.
research Testosterone levels in relation to oral contraceptive use and the androgen receptor CAG and GGC length polymorphisms in healthy young women
Oral contraceptives lower testosterone levels in women, especially those with certain genetic traits, and may be linked to increased breast cancer risk.

Rapp-Hodgkin syndrome, AEC, and EEC are different expressions of the same genetic disorder caused by TP63 gene mutations.
research Regulation of Receptor Binding Specificity of FGF9 by an Autoinhibitory Homodimerization
FGF9 controls which receptors it binds to through a process where two FGF9 molecules join, and changes in FGF9 can lead to incorrect receptor activation.
