A KRT32 gene variant causes loose anagen hair syndrome.
research Folliculin interacts with p0071 (plakophilin-4) and deficiency is associated with disordered RhoA signalling, epithelial polarization and cytokinesis
Folliculin deficiency causes problems with cell division and positioning due to disrupted RhoA signaling and interaction with p0071.
research Lichen Planopilaris
Lichen planopilaris causes permanent hair loss and scarring due to damage to hair follicles and can be mistaken for other hair loss conditions.
research A Splice Site Mutation in the Gene of the Human Type I Hair Keratin hHa1 Results in the Expression of a Tailless Keratin Isoform
A genetic mutation in the hHa1 gene creates a smaller, but still functional, hair protein without causing hair problems.

Truncated hHb1 keratin may play a role in breast cancer cell transformation.
research Effects of transient receptor potential (TRP) channel agonists and antagonists on slowly adapting type II mechanoreceptors in the rat sinus hair follicle
TRPA1 and TRPV1 channels don't affect mechanotransduction in rat sinus hair follicles.
research The biphasic regulatory effect of diphencyprone on mouse hair growth and its relation to protein kinase C isoforms
Diphencyprone initially increases mouse hair growth, then slows it, possibly due to changes in specific protein levels.
research Progressive expression of PPARGC1α is associated with hair miniaturization in androgenetic alopecia
Increased PPARGC1α relates to hair thinning in common baldness.
