research Woolly Hair Nevus: A Rare Case with Late Onset in Adolescence
A 17-year-old developed woolly hair nevus in adolescence, which is unusual, and over time the hair darkened and straightened slightly, but microscopic changes persisted.
research An Epistatic Effect of KRT25 on SP6 Is Involved in Curly Coat in Horses
The genes KRT25 and SP6 affect curly hair in horses, with KRT25 also causing hair loss. If both genes are mutated, the horse gets curly hair and hair loss. KRT25 can hide the effect of SP6.
research Improving Human Forensics Through Advances in Genetics, Genomics, and Molecular Biology
DNA profiling in forensics has improved, but predicting physical traits and ancestry from DNA has limitations and requires ethical consideration.
research Congenital Atrichia Associated with Situs Inversus and Mesocardia
A 2-year-old boy had no hair and unusual organ placement, and it's unclear if it's genetic or coincidental.
research Repigmentation of Leukoderma in a Piebald Patient Associated with a Novel c-KIT Gene Mutation, G592E, of the Tyrosine Kinase Domain
A new gene mutation may allow some piebaldism patients to regain skin color in white patches.
research The Biology of Hair Diversity
Hair diversity is influenced by complex genetics and environmental factors, requiring more research for practical solutions.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness involves hormone-related hair thinning, shorter hair, and inflammation.

New treatments targeting specific genes show promise for treating keratin disorders.
research Wool Keratin-Associated Protein Genes in Sheep: A Review
Understanding wool keratin-associated proteins in sheep can help improve wool quality through selective breeding.
research The Effect of Topical Minoxidil Treatment on Hair Follicular Growth of Neonatal Hairless Descendants of Mexican Hairless Dogs
Minoxidil treatment can stimulate hair growth in hairless puppies if applied early.
research Cutaneous Manifestations in Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathy-Candidiasis-Ectodermal Dystrophy: A Comprehensive Review
The review shows that skin symptoms like chronic fungal infections, hair loss, and skin depigmentation are key for early detection and management of APECED.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Its Impact on Health
PCOS affects women's health by increasing the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and reproductive issues.
research Aging of the Hair Follicle Pigmentation System
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.

Melatonin affects certain genes and pathways involved in cashmere goat hair growth.
research Obesity and the Skin
Obesity is linked to various skin problems and may increase the risk of skin cancer.
research Transcriptome Dynamics Reveal Stage-Specific and Melatonin-Triggered Gene Expression Patterns During the Cashmere Growth Cycle in Capra Hircus
Melatonin can increase cashmere yield by altering gene expression and restarting the growth cycle early.
research A PAX1 Enhancer Locus Is Associated With Susceptibility to Idiopathic Scoliosis in Females
A genetic region near the PAX1 gene is linked to a higher risk of scoliosis in females.
research Familial Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia
Familial frontal fibrosing alopecia is rare, mostly affects women, and often occurs between sisters or mother-daughter pairs.
research Hypotrichosis Congenita (KRT71 Mutation) in Hereford Cattle in Uruguay

research A KRT71 Loss-of-Function Variant Results in Inner Root Sheath Dysplasia and Recessive Congenital Hypotrichosis of Hereford Cattle
A specific genetic change in the KRT71 gene causes a hair loss condition in Hereford cattle.
research Analysis of Familial Factors Using the Basic and Specific (BASP) Classification in Korean Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia
Familial factors affect hair loss types in Koreans, with M type in men, L type in women, and paternal factors influencing male hair loss more.
research Cutaneous Features of Myotonic Dystrophy Types 1 and 2: Implications of Premature Aging and Vitamin D Homeostasis
