780-810 / 1000+ resultsresearch [Nevus comedonicus. A rare skin disease of the hair follicles].
Nevus comedonicus is a rare skin condition causing dark bumps, treatable with retinoic acid or surgery.
research One Transgene: Two Outcomes
Modified β-catenin causes different effects in hair and skin cells, leading to cysts or tumors.
research Atrichia with papular lesions in a Taiwanese patient without hairless (HR) gene mutation
A Taiwanese patient had hair loss and skin bumps without the usual gene mutation, suggesting other genetic factors might be involved.
research Failure of intercellular adhesion in hair fibers with regard to hair condition and strain conditions
Hair breaks differently when wet or dry and is affected by its condition and treatments like perms and bleaching.
research RSPO1-mutated keratinocytes from palmoplantar keratoderma display impaired differentiation, alteration of cell–cell adhesion, EMT-like phenotype and invasiveness properties: implications for squamous cell carcinoma susceptibility in patients with 46XX disorder of sexual development
RSPO1 mutations in certain patients lead to skin cells that don't develop properly and are more likely to become invasive, increasing the risk of skin cancer.
research Commonly Misdiagnosed Rare Condition – Toe Tourniquet Syndrome – Literature Review
Toe Tourniquet Syndrome is often misdiagnosed.
research Editors' Picks
Scientists found gene mutations that affect hair loss, skin stem cells, and skin disorders, and identified drugs that may help treat blood vessel and skin conditions.
research Selection signatures in goats reveal a novel deletion mutant underlying cashmere yield and diameter
A specific genetic deletion in goats affects cashmere yield and thickness.
research Association between digit ratio (2D:4D) and palmaris longus muscle agenesis according to gender: a radiological study
Palmaris longus muscle absence is uncommon and not linked to gender, hand side, or finger ratio.
research Keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans in a female
A rare genetic skin condition usually affecting males was found in a 9-year-old girl.
research Ultrastructure of the contrasting types of keratinization seen in the tail epidermis of the laboratory mouseMus musculus
Mouse tail skin has different keratinization near hair follicles and scales.
research A new heterozygous frameshift variant in keratin 10 resulting in ichthyosis hystrix in a father and daughter
A new genetic change in the keratin 10 gene caused a skin condition called ichthyosis hystrix in a father and his daughter.
research Steroidogenic factor-1 lineage origin of skin lesions in Carney complex syndrome
Skin lesions in Carney complex are likely caused by a specific group of skin cells that promote pigment production due to a genetic mutation.

A rare, harmless hair condition was found in an infant's eyebrow, needing no treatment.
research Dysfunction of keratinocyte adhesion
Keratinocyte adhesion problems can cause skin and hair disorders.
research [Studies on monilethrix].
Monilethrix is not caused by a metabolic defect.
research Congenital atrichia associated with situs inversus and mesocardia
A 2-year-old boy had no hair and unusual organ placement, and it's unclear if it's genetic or coincidental.
research Germline Mutation in ATR in Autosomal- Dominant Oropharyngeal Cancer Syndrome
A specific ATR gene mutation is linked to a hereditary oropharyngeal cancer syndrome.
research Intravital Two-Photon Imaging of Touch Sensory Axon Morphology in Mouse Skin
