Removing a specific gene in certain skin cells causes hair loss on the body by disrupting normal hair development.
research Trichoscopic signs in androgenetic alopecia
Trichoscopy can diagnose hair loss by looking for common signs like uneven hair thickness, "yellow dots," and more thin hairs, which are found in both men and women.
research 321 Deletion of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl 4-hydroxylase 2 in FoxD1-lineage mesenchymal cells leads to congenital truncal alopecia
