Certain gene variations and different levels of BDNF and CRH hormones are linked to vitiligo.
research Lab Quality Management and Methodology
Men with early balding should be checked for metabolic syndrome, as there's a link between the two.
research The spectrum of hair loss in patients with mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome
Some patients with mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome experience hair loss, which may be similar to alopecia areata or linked to skin lesions, possibly due to abnormal T cells, and bexarotene can help treat it.
research MTHFR C677T Polymorphism and Serum Homocysteine Level as Risk Factors of Coronary Heart Disease in Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia: A Case Control Study
Androgenetic alopecia is linked to a higher risk of coronary heart disease due to certain genetic factors and high homocysteine levels.
research Identification of drug-specific public TCR driving severe cutaneous adverse reactions
Researchers found a specific immune receptor in patients that causes severe skin reactions to a drug.
research Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata has no guaranteed treatment for hair regrowth, but options like corticosteroids and minoxidil are used, with future research focusing on genetic and immune therapies.
research Alopecia Areata
The document concludes that ongoing research using animal models is crucial for better understanding and treating Alopecia Areata.
research W locus alleles of the KIT Gene in Turkish Van Cats and Their Association with Certain Phenotypes
Turkish Van cats' genotypes don't affect traits like eye color or hair length.
research Uncovering the genetic architecture and evolutionary roots of androgenetic alopecia in African men
Genetic predictions of baldness in Europeans don't apply well to African men.
research Evaluation of androgen receptor gene as a candidate gene in female androgenetic alopecia
The androgen receptor gene doesn't help identify women likely to have female pattern hair loss.
research Clinical Snippets
New findings suggest potential treatments for melanoma, hyperpigmentation, hair defects, and multiple sclerosis, and show skin microbiome changes don't cause atopic dermatitis.
research Clinical Manifestations of Hyperandrogenism and Ovulatory Dysfunction Are Not Associated with His1058 C/T SNP (rs1799817) Polymorphism of Insulin Receptor Gene Tyrosine Kinase Domain in Kashmiri Women with PCOS
The genetic variant studied does not affect PCOS symptoms in Kashmiri women.
research The VEGF +405 G>C 5' untranslated region polymorphism and risk of PCOS: a study in the South Indian Women
The VEGF +405G allele may increase the risk of PCOS in South Indian women.
research Alopecia Areata: A tissue specific autoimmune disease of the hair follicle
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss due to the immune system attacking hair follicles, often influenced by genetics and stress.
research Understanding autoimmunity of vitiligo and alopecia areata
Both vitiligo and alopecia areata involve an immune response triggered by stress and specific genes, with treatments targeting this pathway showing potential.
research Regulatory mutations in TBX3 disrupt asymmetric hair pigmentation that underlies Dun camouflage color in horses
Mutations in TBX3 cause horses to have more even hair color instead of Dun camouflage.
research The mouse frizzy (fr) and rat ‘hairless’ (frCR) mutations are natural variants of protease serine S1 family member 8 (Prss8)
The frizzy mouse and hairless rat mutations are due to changes in the Prss8 gene.
research Recent Advances in the Pathogenesis of Autoimmune Hair Loss Disease Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is caused by immune system attacks on hair follicles, often triggered by viral infections.
research COVID-19: Understanding Inter-Individual Variability and Implications for Precision Medicine
The conclusion is that individual differences in COVID-19 severity are influenced by factors like age, sex, race, and genetics, which are important for personalized medicine.
research Updates from the British Association of Dermatologists 91st Annual Meeting, 5-7 July 2011, London, U.K.
New treatments and management strategies for skin conditions like melanoma and Spitz naevi were discussed at the dermatologists' meeting.
research Clinical Snippets
Some cells may slow melanoma growth, a protein could affect skin pigmentation, a gene-silencing method might treat hair defects, skin bacteria changes likely result from eczema, and a defensin protein could help treat multiple sclerosis.
research 9. Immunology and Genetics
The document concludes that Borrelia afzelii causes a skin condition in France, a gene is linked to hair loss in Caucasian women, and various genetic mutations affect skin diseases.
research Sequencing KRT71 as a candidate gene for hair shape variation in dromedary camels
KRT71 gene variants may influence camel hair shape but don't fully explain it.
research Polymorphisms in the Human High Sulfur Hair Keratin-associated Protein 1, KAP1, Gene Family
