research Sexual difference, identification and object choice in individuals with sex differentiation disorders
Gender identity doesn't determine who people are attracted to or their sexual practices.
research The Biology and Genomics of Human Hair Follicles: A Focus on Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in Androgenetic Alopecia is caused by genetics, aging, and lifestyle, leading to hair follicle shrinkage and related health risks.
research Establishment and characterization of matched immortalized human frontal and occipital scalp dermal papilla cell lines from androgenetic alopecia
Scientists created cell lines from balding patients and found that cells from the front of the scalp are more affected by hormones that cause hair loss than those from the back.
research The effect of finasteride on the male rat brain
Finasteride affects the male rat brain by reducing certain protein activation, but these effects may reverse after stopping the drug.
research Male-pattern hair loss: Comprehensive identification of the associated genes as a basis for understanding pathophysiology
Male-pattern hair loss is largely influenced by genetics, with key genes identified.
