Researchers found a new genetic mutation causing a rare hair loss condition in the first Japanese child studied.
research Epithelial Loss of Mitochondrial Oxidative Phosphorylation Leads to Disturbed Enamel and Impaired Dentin Matrix Formation in Postnatal Developed Mouse Incisor
Mitochondrial problems in tooth cells lead to bad enamel and dentin development in mice.
research Hereditary, Congenital, and Acquired Alopecias in Dogs and Cats
The conclusion is that different types of hair loss in dogs and cats can be cosmetic or serious, and affected animals should not be bred.

Changing protein kinase levels in pituitary cells affects calcium flow and beta-endorphin release.
research Copper Loading Studies in Brindled Mouse Hemizygotes and Heterozygotes
Copper treatments increase copper in all tissues, but brindled female mice accumulate much more copper in their kidneys without clinical effects, unlike brindled male mice where brain copper deficiency is clinically significant.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
