The CD4 protein may play a role in the behavior of certain skin cells, affecting their growth, movement, and differentiation.
research Human Hair Growth Deficiency Is Linked to a Genetic Defect in the Phospholipase Gene LIPH
A genetic mutation in the LIPH gene causes hair loss and growth defects.
research Lack of the Vitamin D Receptor Is Associated with Reduced Epidermal Differentiation and Hair Follicle Growth
Vitamin D Receptor is crucial for normal skin and hair growth.
research Asebia-2J (Scd1ab2J): A New Allele and a Model for Scarring Alopecia
The absence of functional sebaceous glands causes hair follicle destruction and scarring alopecia.
research FGF5 Is a Crucial Regulator of Hair Length in Humans
FGF5 gene mutations cause unusually long eyelashes by affecting hair growth regulation.
research The Roles of Activins in Repair Processes of the Skin and the Brain
Activin A helps heal skin wounds and protects the brain after injury.
research Disruption of Tubular Flcn Expression as a Mouse Model for Renal Tumor Induction
Disrupting the Flcn gene in mice causes early kidney cysts and tumors, which can be treated with rapamycin.
research Increased Susceptibility to Skin Carcinogenesis Associated with a Spontaneous Mouse Mutation in the Palmitoyl Transferase Zdhhc13 Gene
A mouse gene mutation increases the risk of skin cancer.
research Cellular and Metabolic Basis for the Ichthyotic Phenotype in NIPAL4 (Ichthyin)–Deficient Canines
Mutations in NIPAL4 cause skin issues by disrupting lipid layers, but some improvement is seen with topical treatment.
research Cyclic Alopecia and Abnormal Epidermal Cornification in Zdhhc13-Deficient Mice Reveal the Importance of Palmitoylation in Hair and Skin Differentiation
The enzyme DHHC13 is essential for healthy hair and skin, and its deficiency leads to hair loss and skin problems.
research Novel Mutation in Sjögren-Larsson Syndrome Is Associated With Divergent Neurologic Phenotypes
The same genetic mutation in Sjögren-Larsson syndrome can lead to different levels of severity, suggesting other factors influence the symptoms.
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.

TSC2 is crucial for proper hair follicle development and patterning.
research The Epidermis: Rising to the Surface
The document concludes that recent research has improved understanding of skin diseases and the balance between cell growth and differentiation in the epidermis.
research Atrichia Caused by Mutations in the Vitamin D Receptor Gene Is a Phenocopy of Generalized Atrichia Caused by Mutations in the Hairless Gene
Mutations in the Vitamin D receptor gene can cause hair loss similar to mutations in the Hairless gene.
