The research suggests that the global distribution of PCOS is likely due to historical human migration and that genes affecting PCOS may have different impacts on males and females.
research Computational derivation of a molecular framework for hair follicle biology from disease genes
The research provides a gene-based framework for hair biology, highlighting the Hippo pathway's importance and suggesting links between hair disorders, cancer pathways, and the immune system.
research Androgenetic alopecia: Update on etiology
AGA, a common hair loss, is caused by genetics, hormones, age, and environmental factors.
research Irradiation-induced hair graying in mice: an experimental model to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions targeting oxidative stress, DNA damage prevention, and cellular senescence
Using radiation to make mice's hair turn gray helps study and find ways to prevent or reverse hair graying.
research Inherited ichthyosis: Syndromic forms
Understanding the genetics of rare inherited ichthyosis syndromes is key for better treatments and genetic counseling.
research Biallelic HEPHL1 variants impair ferroxidase activity and cause an abnormal hair phenotype
Mutations in the HEPHL1 gene cause abnormal hair and cognitive issues.
research Overlap Between Ulerythema Ophryogenes and Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans: a Case Report
A 19-year-old male had two rare skin conditions causing scarring and permanent hair loss.
research Hair Shaft Abnormalities – Clues to Diagnosis and Treatment
Hair problems can be caused by genetics or the environment, and treatment should focus on the cause and reducing hair damage.
research The utility of elastic Verhoeff-Van Gieson staining in dermatopathology
EVG staining is a valuable, simple, and cost-effective method for diagnosing various skin conditions in dermatopathology.
research Biology of Human Hair: Know Your Hair to Control It
Understanding hair biology is key to developing better treatments for hair and scalp issues.
research Hair Loss in Children
The most common cause of hair loss in children is tinea capitis, followed by alopecia areata and telogen effluvium.
research Physiology and Medical Treatments for Alopecia
Minoxidil, finasteride, and low-level laser light therapy are effective FDA-approved treatments for hair loss.
research Biology of melanocytes in mammals
Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.
research Polycystic ovarian syndrome
PCOS is a common hormonal disorder in women that can lead to serious health problems.

L-PGDS has specific binding sites for its functions and could help in drug delivery system design.
research Hair follicles and their role in skin health
Hair follicles are essential for skin health, aiding in hair growth, wound healing, and immune function.
research Polymorphisms in androgen and estrogen receptor genes: effects on male aging
Changes in testosterone and estrogen receptor genes can affect how men age, influencing body fat, hair patterns, and possibly leading to skin disorders.
research Primary cicatricial alopecias
The document concludes that early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing rare hair loss disorders and that more research is needed to improve treatment strategies.
research Loss-of-function mutations of an inhibitory upstream ORF in the human hairless transcript cause Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis
Certain mutations in a hair growth-related gene cause a type of genetic hair loss.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Insulin Resistance, and Obesity: Navigating the Pathophysiologic Labyrinth
Insulin resistance and obesity are key factors in the development and worsening of polycystic ovary syndrome, and lifestyle changes are important for managing it.
research A genome-wide association scan in admixed Latin Americans identifies loci influencing facial and scalp hair features
Genetic factors influence hair traits like shape, color, and greying in Latin Americans.
research Activin Controls Skin Morphogenesis and Wound Repair Predominantly via Stromal Cells and in a Concentration-Dependent Manner via Keratinocytes
Activin helps skin growth and healing mainly through stromal cells and affects keratinocytes based on its amount.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: An update
The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.
research Altered expression of intracellular Toll-like receptors in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from patients with alopecia areata
Increased Toll-like receptors in blood cells may contribute to alopecia areata and could be a target for new treatments.
