Mutations in Plcd1 and Plcd3 together cause severe hair loss in mice.
research Potential Factors Contributing to Androgenetic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness may be caused by factors like poor blood circulation, scalp tension, stress, and hormonal imbalances, but the exact causes are still unclear.
research Runx Family Genes in Tissue Stem Cell Dynamics
Runx genes are important for stem cell regulation and their roles in aging and disease need more research.
research Bald Thigh Syndrome in Sighthounds: Revisiting the Cause of a Well-Known Disease
Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds is caused by structural defects in hair shafts due to downregulated genes and proteins.
research Environment of the Anagen Follicle

research Animal Fibre: Connecting Science and Production
Improving knowledge and practices in animal fibre production is crucial to meet market demands and potentially revive natural fibres.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Update on Etiology
AGA, a common hair loss, is caused by genetics, hormones, age, and environmental factors.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research A Brief Study on Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata causes hair loss with varied treatment responses and frequent relapses.
research Possible Relationships Between the Physical Conditions of Cattle and the Occurrence of Structural Modifications of Their Coat Hair
Vitamin A deficiency changes cattle hair structure, while pregnancy may improve it, suggesting hair can indicate cattle health.
research Selection Signatures in Goats Reveal a Novel Deletion Mutant Underlying Cashmere Yield and Diameter
A specific genetic deletion in goats affects cashmere yield and thickness.
research Specific Ectodermal Enhancers Control the Expression of Hoxc Genes in Developing Mammalian Integuments
The HoxC gene cluster and its enhancers are essential for developing hair and nails in mammals.
research Hair Disorders
