research Adrenal Cortex Tumors and Hyperplasias
Most adrenal cortex tumors are benign and non-secreting, but proper diagnosis and treatment are important due to the rare possibility of cancer.
research Corneodesmosin: Structure, Function and Involvement in Pathophysiology
Corneodesmosin is essential for skin and hair health, and its dysfunction can lead to skin and hair disorders.
research A Variable Monilethrix Phenotype Associated With a Novel Mutation, Glu402Lys, in the Helix Termination Motif of the Type II Hair Keratin hHb1
A new mutation, Glu402Lys, in hair keratin is linked to variable symptoms of monilethrix.
research Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome—Current Status and Prospects for Gene Therapy Treatment

research Intragenic deletion in the Desmoglein 4 gene underlies the skin phenotype in the Iffa Credo “hairless” rat
A gene deletion causes the "hairless" trait in Iffa Credo rats.
research Signaling Involved in Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Development
The conclusion is that proper signaling is crucial for hair growth and development, and errors can lead to cancer or hair loss.
research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia—Current Insights in Pathophysiology, Diagnostics, and Management
Early diagnosis and individualized treatment improve outcomes for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia.
research Mutations in Three Genes Encoding Proteins Involved in Hair Shaft Formation Cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome
Mutations in three genes cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome, leading to frizzy hair that can't be combed flat.
research Molecular epidemiology of hypospadias: Review of genetic and environmental risk factors
Both genes and environmental factors like chemicals may contribute to the increase in hypospadias, but the exact causes are still unclear.
research Congenital hair loss disorders: Rare, but not too rare
Some hair loss disorders are caused by genetic mutations affecting hair growth.
