Hereditary factors affect acne duration, not severity, and late-onset acne in females has different causes.

People with hair loss have more androgen receptors and enzymes in certain follicles, with men and women showing different patterns.

Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.

Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause androgen insensitivity, leading to female traits in genetically male individuals.

Male pattern baldness is linked to specific genetic variations in the androgen receptor gene.

Hair follicle size is mainly influenced by the number of cells and extracellular matrix volume, with cell number having a larger impact.

Mutations at Val-889 and Arg-752 disrupt key interactions in the androgen receptor, affecting its function.

ERG increases SOX9, promoting prostate cancer growth and invasion.

Blocking testosterone speeds up wound healing in males.

Genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene mainly causes early-onset hair loss, with maternal inheritance playing a key role.
