The trichohyalin gene is located at chromosomal region 1q21 with other skin-related protein genes.
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 A novel missense mutation in the mouse hairless gene causes irreversible hair loss: Genetic and molecular analyses of Hrm1Enu
A new genetic mutation in mice causes permanent hair loss and skin wrinkling.
research Characterization of Novel Cutaneous Human Papillomavirus Genotypes HPV-150 and HPV-151
HPV-150 and HPV-151 are rare skin viruses linked to warts and some skin cancers.
research ADAM17 variant causes hair loss via ubiquitin ligase TRIM47 mediated degradation
A variant in the ADAM17 gene causes hair loss by increasing protein degradation through TRIM47.
research Decision letter: Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Hairless mammals evolved quickly in both gene and non-gene areas related to skin and hair.
research Abstracts from the 55th European Society of Human Genetics (ESHG) Conference: e-Posters
Rare ULBP3 gene changes may raise the risk of Alopecia areata, a certain FAS gene deletion could cause a dysfunctional protein in an immune disorder, and having one copy of a specific genetic deletion is okay, but two copies cause sickle cell disease.

A mutation in the iRhom2 gene causes hairless mice due to abnormal hair follicle development.
research Characterization of X-Linked SNP genotypic variation in globally distributed human populations
The research concluded that selection significantly shaped the genetic variation of the X chromosome, with certain regions affected by past selective events.
research Cross-species amplification of human microsatellite markers in pig-tailed and stump-tailed macaques
Some human genetic markers work for genetic studies in pig-tailed and stump-tailed macaques, which can help in their conservation.
