Gene differences found in hair follicles linked to male baldness.
research Testosterone levels in relation to oral contraceptive use and the androgen receptor CAG and GGC length polymorphisms in healthy young women
Oral contraceptives lower testosterone levels in women, especially those with certain genetic traits, and may be linked to increased breast cancer risk.
research Worldwide cohort study of 46, XY differences/disorders of sex development genetic diagnoses: geographic and ethnic differences in variants
About 50% of 46, XY DSD cases lack a genetic diagnosis, but advanced sequencing methods improve detection.
research Prevalence of CYP21 mutations and IRS1 variant among women with polycystic ovary syndrome and adrenal androgen excess
Some women with PCOS have CYP21 mutations and IRS1 variants, but these genetic factors are not major contributors to PCOS.
research Relationship between betacoronaviruses and the endocrine system: a new key to understand the COVID-19 pandemic—A comprehensive review
Betacoronaviruses, like COVID-19, may cause hormone system dysfunction and affect disease susceptibility and severity.
research Acne
Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.
research Update on the pathogenesis, genetics and medical treatment of patterned hair loss.
New genetic insights have improved understanding of hair loss, leading to a new test and treatments, but more research is needed on the test and laser comb effectiveness.
research The association of cytosine-adenine-guanine repeat polymorphism in the androgen receptor gene with nodulocystic acne in Egyptian patients
Certain gene variations are linked to severe acne in Egyptian patients and could guide treatment choices.
research Role of polymorphism of the androgen receptor gene and non-random X chromosome inactivation in the genesis of androgenic alopecia in women of childbearing potential
Certain gene variations and irregular X chromosome activity may contribute to hair loss in women who can have children.
research Characteristics of Androgenetic Alopecia in Asian
Asian hair loss differs from Europeans; consider individual needs and psychological well-being for treatment.
research Genetic and molecular aspects of androgenetic alopecia
Androgenetic alopecia is mainly caused by genetic factors and increased androgen activity, leading to hair follicle miniaturization.
research Androgenetic Alopecia in Men: An Update On Genetics
Androgenetic alopecia in men is genetic and linked to health issues like obesity and heart disease, with treatments including minoxidil, finasteride, and hair transplants.
research Male pattern baldness: current treatments, future prospects
Current treatments for male pattern baldness include minoxidil and finasteride, with new options being developed.
research Genetic Basis of Male Pattern Baldness
Male pattern baldness is largely genetic, linked to the androgen receptor gene, and may relate to certain health issues.
research Main Plenary Sessions: Summaries of Papers
UK medical students lack dermatology education, liver biopsy patients with risk factors show more fibrosis, and certain fungi resist drugs due to melanin; genetics may influence female hair loss.
research Nociceptive and Nonnociceptive Roles of TRPV3 and Its “Druggability”
TRPV3 could be a target for treating pain, skin disorders, and hair problems, but more research is needed to create effective drugs.
research A Pharmacogenetic Survey of Androgen Receptor (CAG)N and (GGN)N Polymorphisms in Patients Experiencing Long Term Side Effects after Finasteride Discontinuation
