Researchers explored the genetic architecture of male pattern hair loss using data from over 52,000 male participants in the UK Biobank. The data allowed them to identify over 250 independent genetic loci associated with severe hair loss.
Researchers analyzed the interactions of Fgf and Wnt signaling pathways in murine dermal papilla cellsThe study demonstrates the importance of signaling crosstalk to regulate tissue growth.
University of California, Irvine-led researchers discovered that TGF-b ligand SCUBE3 is only expressed in growing dermal papilla cells, highlighting its potential as a target for androgenetic alopecia.
