A genetic mutation in the LIPH gene causes tightly curled hair that stops growing in some Japanese individuals.
research Localized Hypotrichosis Type 1 Due to Intragenic Deletion of Exons 5-8 in Desmoglein Gene in a Neonate from Indian Family
A baby from an Indian family had a rare genetic disorder causing no scalp or body hair due to a specific gene deletion.
research Whole-genome SNP genotyping mapped a novel locus for hereditary hypotrichosis on chromosome 2q31.1–q32.2
Researchers found a new area on chromosome 2 linked to a genetic hair loss condition.
research 15. Hair and Nails
Low-dose acitretin helps nail psoriasis, stem cells may treat scarring alopecia, Chinese men have lower baldness rates, lateral foldplasty is good for ingrown toenails, hair diameter helps diagnose female baldness, childhood trauma linked to alopecia areata, certain hair-weaving leads to scalp conditions in African American women, and new methods for hair research and understanding hair and sweat gland development were introduced.
research Understanding the role of prostaglandin E2 in regulating human platelet activity in health and disease
Prostaglandin E2 affects human platelet activity in complex ways that could lead to personalized heart disease treatments.
research Disruption of P2RY5, an orphan G protein–coupled receptor, underlies autosomal recessive woolly hair
Mutations in the P2RY5 gene cause autosomal recessive woolly hair.

research Effects of prasugrel versus clopidogrel on coronary microvascular function in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention: A randomized double-blind study
Prasugrel is better than clopidogrel at preventing heart damage and improving blood flow in small heart vessels during heart artery procedures.
research Prostaglandin D2(PGD2); prostaglandin D2 receptor (CRTH2; GPR44; CD294); prostaglandin D2 synthase (PTGDS)
Blocking a protein called prostaglandin D2 might help treat hair loss.
research PNU 157706, a novel dual type I and II5α-reductase inhibitor
PNU 157706 is a more effective treatment than finasteride for conditions caused by DHT, like enlarged prostate and hair loss.
research Discovery of a transdermally deliverable pentapeptide for activating AdipoR1 to promote hair growth

research PLA2R1 Overexpression Causes Podocyte Injury by Inhibiting the Cell Cycle: A Clinical Cross-Sectional Investigation and Cellular Study
PLA2R1 overexpression harms kidney cells by stopping their growth cycle.
research Distribution of P2X3‐immunoreactive fibers in hairy and glabrous skin of the rat
P2X3-IR fibers are widespread in rat skin and likely help detect pain.
research Microarray analysis reveals distinct RNA expression profiles in endothelial progenitor cells exposed to pro-inflammatory environment or oxidized LDL
Different cells affect hair follicle blood vessels, endothelial cells react differently to inflammation and oxidized fats, and prasugrel better protects heart vessels during a procedure than clopidogrel.
research PD59-09 PHOSPHODIESTERASE INHIBITORS COULD REVERSE THE PROLIFERATION OF BPH EPITHELIAL CELLS INDUCED BY CD8+ T CELLS IN LOW ANDROGEN CONDITION
Phosphodiesterase inhibitors like tadalafil can reduce cell growth in BPH caused by CD8+ T cells in low androgen conditions.
