Infundibular protein and RNA microarray analyses from affected and clinically non-affected scalp in male androgenetic alopecia patients.
Experimental Dermatology 2017 June
Non-invasive sample collection methods could facilitate clinical research on hair diseases. In an exploratory experimental study on six male volunteers with untreated androgenetic alopecia (AGA), Hamilton-Norwood stage IIIv-IV, skin surface and infundibular protein as well as RNA extracts from plucked hair follicles were analyzed from frontal skin, vertex and clinically unaffected occiput. Slightly increased levels of inflammatory markers were only found in AGA-affected scalp skin and infundibulum, not in RNA from plucked hair follicles. RNA expression profiles point towards differential expression of genes involved in hair cycle regulation, hair keratin production, but also RNA methylation and ion channel regulation.
