research Alopecia areata associated with idiopathic primary hypophysitis
Autoimmunity can cause both alopecia areata and idiopathic primary hypophysitis.
research Identification of hair shaft progenitors that create a niche for hair pigmentation

research Becker's nevus associated with chromosomal mosaicism and congenital adrenal hyperplasia
High androgen levels and genetic factors likely cause Becker's nevus and related symptoms.
research Identification of factors contributing to phenotypic divergence via quantitative image analyses of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with homozygous c.736T>ALIPH mutation
Different hair fiber development might explain why hair loss severity varies in patients with a specific genetic mutation, and treatments that thicken hair could help.
