Common variants in the Trichohyalin gene are linked to straight hair in Europeans.
research The Origins of Skin Diversity: Lessons From Dermal Fibroblasts
New research shows that skin diversity is influenced by different types of dermal fibroblasts and their development, especially involving the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.
research Evaluation of Serum Levels of IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-a in Alopecia Areata Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Alopecia areata patients have higher levels of IL-6 and TNF-α.
research Co-Occurrence of Monilethrix and Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

research Tackling Underrepresentation to Aid Understanding of Parkinson’s Disease: Progress and Further Opportunities
Increasing research diversity is key for better understanding and treating Parkinson's Disease.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research 2015
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
research Vitamin D: More Than a Bona Fide Hormone
Vitamin D is important for bones, hair, blood pressure, and breast development.
research Pathomechanisms of Immune-Mediated Alopecia
The study concluded that immune cells attacking hair follicles cause hair loss in alopecia, with genetics and environment also playing a role, and highlighted the potential of certain treatments.
research Female Pattern Alopecia: Current Perspectives
Female pattern hair loss is caused by multiple factors and while treatments like topical minoxidil, hormone therapy, and low-level light therapy can help, none can fully cure it.
research Consequences of Anabolic-Androgenic Steroid Abuse in Males: Sexual and Reproductive Perspective
Using anabolic-androgenic steroids can harm men's reproductive health and increase the risk of heart problems and death.
research Vitamin A in Skin and Hair: An Update
