The study found that variations in hair protein genes are likely due to evolutionary deletions or duplications.
research Water-Soluble Polymers in Hair Care
Alkaline hair relaxers damage hair, but cationic and non-ionic polymers can help reduce this damage.
research Genetics of Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Hidradenitis Suppurativa has genetic links, with certain gene mutations more common in patients and a third of cases having a family history.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Analysis of Hidradenitis Suppurativa-Linked Mutations in Four Genes and the Effects of PSEN1-P242LfsX11 on Cytokine and Chemokine Expression in Macrophages
