Name | Marie-Unna hereditary hypotrichosis |
Description | Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis (MUHH) is an autosomal dominant form of hereditary hair loss. It is characterized by sparse or absent scalp hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes at birth. Coarse and wiry hair is progressively lost in this disease. Responsive mutations are found in U2HR, an inhibitory upstream open reading frame in the 5'-untranslated region of the HR gene. Recently, a missense mutation of EPS8L3 in MUHH has been identified. |
