research Clinical features, with video documentation, of the original familial lewy body parkinsonism caused by α‐synuclein triplication (Iowa kindred)
The document describes a woman with familial Parkinson's disease due to a genetic mutation, showing severe symptoms and poor response to treatment, and suggests finasteride may help reduce symptoms in Tourette syndrome.
research Activation of β-Catenin Signaling in CD133-Positive Dermal Papilla Cells Drives Postnatal Hair Growth
Activating β-catenin in certain skin cells speeds up hair growth in mice.
research Alopecia in Rhesus macaques correlates with immunophenotypic alterations in dermal inflammatory infiltrates consistent with hypersensitivity etiology
Hair loss in Rhesus macaques may be caused by a skin allergy-related condition.
