A new mutation in the hairless gene causes hair loss and skin wrinkling in mice.
research Molecular Epidemiology of Hypospadias: Review of Genetic and Environmental Risk Factors
Both genes and environmental factors like chemicals may contribute to the increase in hypospadias, but the exact causes are still unclear.
research The Twisting Tale of Woolly Hair: A Trait with Many Causes
New genes linked to woolly hair have been found, which could help treat it and change hair texture.
research Molecular Genetic Dissection of ILVEN Leads to Successful Targeted Therapy
Targeted therapy with Ustekinumab significantly improved a skin condition called ILVEN, which is caused by mutations in the CARD14 gene.
research Editors' Picks
Collagen VII helps skin heal and stay strong, sirolimus may lower skin cancer risk in kidney transplant patients, high-molecular-mass hyaluronan helps naked mole rats resist cancer, dermal γδ T cells aid in hair growth in rodents, and overexpression of IL-33 in mouse skin causes itchiness, offering a model for studying allergic inflammation treatments.
research Recent Advances in the Molecular Mechanisms Determining Tissue Sensitivity to Glucocorticoids: Novel Mutations, Circadian Rhythm, and Ligand-Induced Repression of the Human Glucocorticoid Receptor
New findings explain how genetic changes, body clocks, and certain molecules affect tissue response to stress hormones.
research Anti-Alopecia Activity of Alkaloids from Noni Fruit Against Dihydrotestosterone-Induced Male Rabbits and Its Molecular Mechanism: In Vivo and In Silico Studies
Noni fruit extract, specifically the FEA-3 sub-fraction, can increase hair growth and reduce baldness in male rabbits, potentially acting like common hair loss treatments.
research Hairless Up-Regulates TGF-β2 Expression via Down-Regulation of miR-31 in the Skin of Hairpoor (HrHp) Mice
HR protein causes abnormal hair cycles by increasing Tgf-β2 and reducing miR-31.
research Uncombable Hair Syndrome and Beyond
Uncombable hair syndrome causes frizzy hair and can affect the nervous system, eyes, and ears, often co-occurring with other hair, skin, nail, and teeth conditions, and is linked to three specific gene mutations.
research Insights Learned from L457(3.43)R, an Activating Mutant of the Human Lutropin Receptor
The L457(3.43)R mutation in the human lutropin receptor causes increased activity and hormone insensitivity, leading to precocious puberty.
research Impaired LEF1 Activation Accelerates iPSC-Derived Keratinocytes Differentiation in Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome
Faulty LEF1 activation causes faster skin cell differentiation in premature aging syndrome.

research Complex Changes in the Apoptotic and Cell Differentiation Programs During Initiation of the Hair Follicle Response to Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy causes complex changes in hair follicle cells that can lead to hair loss.
research Androgens and Alopecia
Male hormones, particularly DHT, are linked to male pattern hair loss, and treatments like finasteride can help, but they don't work for postmenopausal women's hair loss, which may have different causes.
research Pathobiology of Androgenetic Alopecia
The exact causes of baldness are not fully understood, limiting treatment options.
research CDermo-1 Misexpression Induces Dense Dermis, Feathers, and Scales
