Deimination In Epidermal Barrier And Hair Formation

    Marie-Claire Méchin, Michel Simon
    Studysummary This article reports that mutations in the PADI3 gene, affecting its activity or localization, cause uncombable hair syndrome and are linked to central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, particularly among women of African ancestry.
