Early onset hair loss linked to genetics and androgen levels.
research Alopecia in IL-10-deficient mouse pups is c-kit-dependent and can be triggered by iron deficiency
Hair loss in certain young mice is linked to a specific gene and can be caused by lack of iron.
research Clinical markers of androgenicity in acne vulgaris
Acne severity in women may not be linked to increased male hormone indicators like excess body hair, menstrual irregularities, or hair loss.
research Registrars’ Symposium: Summaries of Papers
Lower adrenal hormone levels may cause hair loss in postmenopausal women, certain patterns help diagnose nail cancer, and a gene variant linked to higher skin cancer risk in kidney transplant patients suggests monitoring folate levels.
research Polymorphism of the Androgen Receptor Gene is Associated with Male Pattern Baldness
Male pattern baldness is linked to specific genetic variations in the androgen receptor gene.
research Diagnosis and treatment of isolated autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis
ARWH is a rare hair disorder with no cure, but potential treatments include minoxidil and other therapies.
research Genetic Basis of Male Pattern Baldness
Male pattern baldness is largely genetic, linked to the androgen receptor gene, and may relate to certain health issues.
research The Feasibility and Utility of Hair Follicle Sampling To Measure FMRP and FMR1 mRNA in Children With or Without Fragile X Syndrome
Hair follicle sampling is a feasible method to measure FMRP and FMR1 mRNA levels in children.
research Parathyroid hormone linked to a collagen binding domain promotes hair growth in a mouse model of chemotherapy-induced alopecia in a dose-dependent manner
A hormone linked to collagen helps hair grow back in mice after chemotherapy, and may also prevent bone loss.
research Autoimmunity: Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease causing hair loss, treatable with immune-modulating drugs, and linked to genetics.
research Identification of factors contributing to phenotypic divergence via quantitative image analyses of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with homozygous c.736T>ALIPH mutation
Different hair fiber development might explain why hair loss severity varies in patients with a specific genetic mutation, and treatments that thicken hair could help.
research Autosomal Recessive Woolly Hair Caused by LIPH Mutations: A Case Series of Six Chinese Patients
LIPH mutations cause woolly hair in some Chinese people.
research Polycomb repressive complex 2 in adult hair follicle stem cells is dispensable for hair regeneration
Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 is not needed for hair regeneration.
research Late presentation of myotonic dystrophy
Myotonic dystrophy should be considered in patients with hair thinning, and genetic counseling is important.
research Sodium alginate cross-linked hydroxypropyl methylcellulose/hydroxyapatite nano biomaterial mediated with zinc to promote bone tissue healing
The zinc-doped nanocomposite helps heal bone tissue effectively.
research Unruly hair
The document concludes that unruly hair can be congenital or acquired, often lacks specific treatments, and can be managed with oils and short hairstyles.
research The Color Blindness Disorders and the Role of Sex-Linked Genes
No link between finger length ratios and color blindness was found.
research The proteomic profile of hair damage
Bleaching hair damages protein structure, especially keratin, leading to weakened hair.
research Tumour regression predicts higher risk of sentinel node involvement in thin cutaneous melanomas
Shrinking skin cancer increases the chance of cancer in nearby lymph nodes.
research Low sex-hormone binding globulin levels in young women with diffuse hair loss
Young women with diffuse hair loss may have low SHBG levels, which could lead to more active testosterone and contribute to their hair loss.
research Androgen Deprivation Therapy in Prostate Cancer: Focusing on Sexual Side Effects
Androgen Deprivation Therapy for prostate cancer often reduces sexual function but intermittent therapy may be more tolerable.
research Adverse cutaneous reactions to chemotherapeutic agents and cytokine therapy
Chemotherapy and cytokine therapy can cause various skin reactions, including hair loss and hypersensitivity.

A genetic marker linked to a type of hair loss was found in most patients studied.
research High Auxin and High Phosphate Impact on RSL2 Expression and ROS-Homeostasis Linked to Root Hair Growth in Arabidopsis thaliana
High levels of auxin increase root hair growth by activating RSL2 and producing ROS, while high phosphate levels hinder growth by repressing RSL2.
research Clinical and Molecular Diagnostic Criteria of Congenital Atrichia with Papular Lesions11This paper originally appeared in issue 117:1662–1665, 2001. Following publication the authors indicated that important corrections at page proof were not taken in. To ensure that the paper is published as intended, the editors have decided to reproduce the contents in full.
Congenital atrichia with papular lesions is often misdiagnosed, and new diagnostic criteria can improve accuracy.

Genes and hormones cause hair loss, with four genes contributing equally.
research Hunting the genes in male‐pattern alopecia: how important are they, how close are we and what will they tell us?
Genes play a significant role in male-pattern baldness, and understanding them could lead to new treatments and insights into related health issues.
research Molecular genetics of androgen insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.
