,
February 1997 in “The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism” This study concluded that heterozygosity for CYP21 mutations is associated with higher mean and free testosterone levels in women but does not significantly increase their risk of developing clinically evident hyperandrogenism.
23 citations
,
June 2010 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that the hair interior defect in AKR/J mice is linked to a mutation in the Soat1 gene, which disrupts SOAT1 protein expression and affects lipid metabolism critical for normal hair formation.
