330-360 / 1000+ resultsresearch Hypertrichosis and Hyperpigmentation in the Periocular Area Associated with Travoprost Treatment
Using travoprost for glaucoma may cause extra hair growth and darker skin around the eyes, but these effects can reverse after stopping the drug.
research 1233 Exploring the role of melanocyte subpopulations in vitiligo
A specific group of early-stage melanocytes is reduced in vitiligo-affected skin, which may explain treatment resistance.
research Signal transducer and activator of transcription 5B deficiency due to a novel missense mutation in the coiled-coil domain
A boy's growth and immune problems were caused by a new mutation in the STAT5B gene.
research Recurrent pruritic polymorphic lesions associated with weight loss
A man with itchy skin lesions and weight loss was diagnosed with a rare skin condition linked to a pancreatic tumor.
research Hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy: a case report with molecular study
A rare genetic disorder causes sparse hair and vision loss due to a CDH3 gene mutation.
research Latanoprost
A woman got a scalp condition from using latanoprost, but it improved after stopping the drug and starting other treatments.
research Origin, Clinical Presentation, and Diagnosis of Facial Hypermelanoses
Facial dark spots can be caused by the sun, genetics, makeup, or medicine, and are diagnosed by patient history and skin tests.
research Histopathology of Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy
The research found that a specific gene mutation causes fewer hair follicles and disrupted hair growth cycles, leading to thin and short hair in people with Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy.
research T-Cell Reconstitution after Thymus Xenotransplantation Induces Hair Depigmentation and Loss
T-cell reconstitution after thymus transplantation can cause hair whitening and loss.
research Genetic Defects in Human Pericentrin Are Associated With Severe Insulin Resistance and Diabetes
