Résumé : Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis (MUHH) is an autosomal dominant form of non-syndromic hereditary alopecia. Recently, loss-of-function mutations of an inhibitory upstream open reading frame (ORF) in the human hairless gene (
HR), named
U2HR, have been identified in some patients with MUHH. We investigated a sporadic Chinese patient with MUHH and identified a novel mutation in
U2HR, c.14C>T (p.T5M), which extends the mutation spectrum of
U2HR mutations. |
