[Scientific power] The hair can't be pulled straight!Why is someone born "ion hot"?

In the 70s of the last century, the explosion was once popular all over the world, and many musicians and young people have followed this fashionable hairstyle.

Of course, some celebrities are such hairstyles, such as physicists Albert Einstein, former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson ...

This kind of human hair is dry, easy to curl, and the colors will become lighter, as if they are "ion hot".

In fact, this kind of natural "ion hot" effect, the hair is fluffy, and the hair and the scalp are "erected" because of the genetic mutation, which causes the hair syndrome, also known as "difficult to comb the hair syndrome" Essence

According to the British "Daily Mail" reported in 2017, a 7 -year -old girl from Melbourne, Australia, Shilah Calvert Yin (Hila) suffered from fluttering syndrome, causing a blonde to fly in the air. It attracted the attention of many netizens. No matter how hard her mother works, she cannot "tame" her hair. It wasn't until Hila 9 years old that the doctor diagnosed her with a pimple syndrome before revealing the mystery that Hillary's hair was difficult to "tame". When she was young, her mother found that her hair was different from others, and she seemed to grow up upright, like a little hedgehog. The attention of others' hair will not make Hillars disgusted with her family, but feel happy. She said that her hair is not as uniform as others, and it is easy to be remembered, especially at school, all grades students know who she is. Hila and his family also created a Instagram account to show Hilla's blond hair. They said that instead of covering up, it is better to show the different "wild" hair.

Scientists point out the three gene mutations behind the "Pongfa Syndrome". The sign of the symptoms of dry disorders of the hair follicles is just like its name: dry hair, curling, shallow color, and it is difficult to sort out.

In order to clearly diagnose this symptom, the hair samples with the "Fanta Syndrome" were used by researchers and placed in high -performance electronic scanning microscope for observation. Studies have found that the straight hair cross section is round, and curly hair seems to be tilted, and the cross section of the fluffy hair is often triangular or heart -shaped, and there is texture from the root to the end of the hair.

Researchers stated in an article published in the "American Human Genetics College" that the three genes that affect the characteristics of the hair are PADI3, TGM3, and TCHH. If one of the genetic function is abnormal, the structure and stability of the hair will be affected. So far, researchers have collected only about 100 related cases, but they suspect that not all patients have reported their symptoms.

Fortunately, for patients, the problem of "tangling" hair seems to change with age and become easier to take care of. Moreover, except for causing hair to be difficult to sort out, it does not cause healthy problems.

On August 31st this year, according to the latest papers published by the American Medical Association Magazine -Dermatology, the Basmanav team studied 107 affected individuals and identified mutations in 80 people. Among them, the symptoms of 76 people are caused by a genetic mutation called Padi3.

Basmanav said that in the future, parents who suspect that their children suffer from incomparable pimper syndrome can perform genetic testing. This ensures that children will not have serious health problems, and their hair will become easier to sort out with age.
