A gene called HDAC9 might be a new factor in male-pattern baldness.

A different gene near the hairless gene on chromosome 8p21 causes a rare hair loss condition in a German family.

Skin cells called dermal fibroblasts are important for skin growth, hair growth, and wound healing.

Plucked hairs can be used instead of skin biopsies to study hair traits because they contain specific cells related to hair.

Mutations in the KRT85 gene cause hair and nail problems.

MRI helps distinguish between pituitary adenomas and craniopharyngiomas, guides treatment for pediatric CNS tumors, and assesses rhinocerebral mucormycosis with a high mortality rate in transplanted patients.

Yellow dots and short vellus hairs are the most common signs of Alopecia Areata (AA), and trichoscopy can help diagnose AA and track treatment progress.

Scientists found a gene in mice that causes early hearing loss.

A specific ATR gene mutation is linked to a hereditary oropharyngeal cancer syndrome.

The UD-PrOZA program successfully diagnosed 18% of adult patients with rare diseases, often using genetic testing.

Genetic variations greatly affect individual metabolism and can impact health and disease risk.

The mouse hairy ears mutation causes longer ear hair due to changes in gene expression.

The document suggests a possible link between mast cells and scarring alopecia, recommending more research for potential treatments.

The article explains the genetic causes and symptoms of various hair disorders and highlights the need for more research to find treatments.

Different staff in a dermatology clinic understand mostly their own tasks, not the full clinic process.

The document concludes that ongoing research using animal models is crucial for better understanding and treating Alopecia Areata.

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.
