February 2025 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study explores the role of the zinc transporter ZIP13 in hair quality, focusing on a 20-year-old male with Spondylocheirodysplastic Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (SCD-EDS) due to a ZIP13 variant. The patient showed abnormal hair quality, such as sparse and thin hair in certain body areas, but not on the scalp. Using an SCD-EDS mouse model, researchers observed similar hair issues, including bald patches and increased fragility. Transcriptomic analysis indicated dysregulation in pathways related to cell proliferation and adhesion, suggesting that ZIP13 deficiency affects hair quality by altering cellular processes. The study emphasizes the significance of zinc and Golgi homeostasis in hair maintenance and proposes that targeting ZIP13 or Golgi homeostasis could offer new strategies for hair loss treatments.

January 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings” The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
