Autophagy helps control skin inflammation and cancer responses and regulates hair growth by affecting stem cell activity.

A specific mutation in the K25 gene causes a rare genetic disorder with curly hair at birth and later hair loss, along with dental issues.

Fasting in hens affects thyroid hormones, which regulate feather and hair growth.

The SOSTDC1 gene is crucial for determining sheep wool type.

Dutasteride, usually used for prostate issues and hair loss, could potentially treat Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) due to its neuroprotective, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties, but more testing is needed.

The document concluded that more research is needed to understand how estrogen affects the enzyme involved in hirsutism development.

A new tool can analyze hair to detect changes due to hormones, genetics, and aging.
