Gene detection in a family with monilethrix and treatment with 5% topical minoxidil [PDF]
Skin Research and Technology, 2023 Abstract Objective To determine the causative gene mutation in a family with monilethrix and observe the therapeutic effect of 5% topical minoxidil. Method Clinical data from a family with monilethrix were collected. Peripheral blood samples were taken from the proband, the parents, and 100 unrelated healthy controls. Genomic DNA was extracted.

Identification of Novel Mutations in Basic Hair Keratins hHb1 and hHb6 in Monilethrix: Implications for Protein Structure and Clinical Phenotype [PDF]
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1999 Monilethrix is an hereditary hair dystrophy recently shown to be due to mutations in the helix termination motif of two type II (basic) human hair keratin genes, hHb1 and hHb6. It has been suggested that mutation in hHb1 produces a less severe phenotype.
