No genetic link between prostaglandins and hair loss found.
research Disease causing homozygous variants in the human hairless gene
New and known mutations in the hairless gene cause a hair loss condition called Atrichia with papular lesions.
research Association between genetically predicted leukocyte telomere length and non-scarring alopecia: A two-sample Mendelian randomization study
Shorter telomeres in white blood cells may increase the risk of a common type of hair loss.
