This study found that TCF7L2 gene polymorphism is linked to alopecia areata, but no significant difference in treatment outcomes was observed between PRP and conventional therapy among different genotypes.

This study found that while the KRTAP gene family is unique to mammals, humans have a similar number of these hair gene types as other primates despite having less body hair.

This review discusses how pesticide exposure leads to hair loss and explores therapeutic options, including conventional and gene therapies, as well as herbal remedies like ginseng and green tea, which may counteract these effects by addressing the toxicological impact on hair follicles.

This study found that the deletion of Med1 in dental epithelia causes a shift from dental to hair tissue development, suggesting the importance of Med1 in maintaining tissue-specific lineage.

In this clinical study, researchers reported that both sodium valproate-loaded nanospanlastics and topical corticosteroids showed comparable modest efficacy in treating patchy alopecia areata, recommending further investigation into sodium valproate's role combined with other therapies.

This study found that overexpression of ornithine decarboxylase and activated Ha-ras together led to a high rate of tumor development in a mouse model without additional carcinogens.

In this retrospective study of eight Saudi children with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets, researchers observed that adjunctive cinacalcet appeared safe and showed initial promise in improving serum PTH levels, though further investigation is needed to confirm its efficacy.

This research found that variations in the KRTAP gene family are likely responsible for the diverse hair phenotypes seen among mammals, influenced by gene repertoire differences, expression, and evolutionary factors.

The study found that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells obtained via laser-assisted liposuction with selective photo-stimulation are comparable in differentiation potential and tumorigenic risk to those from conventional liposuction for cell therapy applications.

This study found that Arabidopsis mutants with disrupted auxin conversion pathways displayed low auxin phenotypes and increased biosynthetic gene expression, suggesting a feedback mechanism maintains auxin homeostasis.

This study sequenced a related gene to KRT2.9 called KRT2.13, which encodes a type II keratin protein not expressed in the hair follicle, and found significant sequence homology suggesting possible gene conversion or conservation of functional sequences.

This study identified a new gene in sheep, KRTAP36-2, discovering variants associated with wool yield. Variations in this gene were linked to the efficiency of fleece conversion from greasy to clean, which may enhance wool production.

This study concluded that a new model of reconstructed human epidermis using keratinocytes from plucked hair follicles offers a less-invasive alternative to conventional skin-derived models for skin research.

This review explores different types of alopecia, the effects on hair appearance and growth, and the conventional treatments available, including minoxidil and finasteride, along with their side effects and the need for future drug development and potential therapies.

This study concluded that neither basal nor ACTH-stimulated 17-OHP concentrations effectively indicate carrier status for 21-hydroxylase deficiency among Slovenian hyperandrogenic women, recommending molecular analysis of the CYP21 gene for reliable screening.

This study demonstrates that transfected epidermal stem cells using a novel 3D transfection system significantly enhanced wound healing and may serve as an effective therapeutic agent and gene delivery method for wound treatment.

This study found no significant difference in SARS-CoV2 IgG seroconversion rates between patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases treated with targeted immune-modulating therapies and those on conventional systemic treatments.

This study found that the transcription factor HB24 plays a critical role in root hair elongation in Arabidopsis thaliana by promoting the conversion of indole-3-butyric acid to indole-3-acetic acid through regulation of IBR1 expression.

This study found that developmental changes in testosterone synthesis and gene regulation may explain age differences in corticosterone release in response to stress between adolescent and adult rats.

This study found that many effects previously thought to be caused by circadian rhythm disruption in Bmal1 knockout mice are actually due to BMAL1's properties unrelated to its clock function.

This source describes alopecia as a hair loss condition often driven by genetic and androgenic factors, with lifestyle elements like chemical treatments exacerbating the issue; Ayurvedic texts caution against scalp toxins and suggest traditional formulations for support.

This study discusses the impact of alopecia on individuals' appearance and psychological well-being, highlighting how factors like genetics and lifestyle influence hair loss, and explores traditional Ayurvedic approaches for managing and promoting hair regrowth.

This article reviews the history, biology, genetics, prevention, conventional treatments, and herbal alternatives for hair loss, but reports no new research findings.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia may be caused by changes in how the body processes male hormones.

This study reviewed early research on topical finasteride for androgenetic alopecia, finding it appears safe and promising, though further investigation is needed to determine optimal dosing, frequency, and potential applications for other types of alopecia.

The researchers concluded that their new reconstructed human epidermis model from plucked hair follicle-derived keratinocytes offers a safer and simpler alternative to traditional skin-derived models for studying epidermal function.

Hair transplantation successfully treated hair loss in a patient with Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome.

This study found that spatial transcriptomics can reveal hidden inflammation patterns in atopic dermatitis by correlating epidermal and dermal gene expression levels, improving understanding of skin pathology.

Genes and hormones cause hair loss, with four genes contributing equally.

This study found that the alcohol extract of Vernonia anthelmintica may counteract stress-induced hair follicle growth inhibition in mice, potentially offering a new approach for treating stress-related hair loss.
