CAG repeat numbers in the AR gene likely don't affect male pattern baldness in Korean men.
research Androgen receptor (AR) gene (CAG)n and (GGN)n length polymorphisms and symptoms in young males with long-lasting adverse effects after finasteride use against androgenic alopecia
Gene differences affect finasteride side effects in men with hair loss.
research Molecular Genetic and Endocrine Mechanisms of Hair Growth
Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.
research Androgen Receptor Gene Polymorphism and Prostate Zonal Volumes in Australian and Chinese Men
CAG repeat polymorphism and prostate zone volume are not reliable markers of long-term androgen sensitivity.
research Genetic Variants Associated with Hyperandrogenemia in PCOS Pathophysiology
Certain genetic variations are linked to increased androgen levels in PCOS, but more research is needed to understand these connections fully.
research Androgen receptor genetic variant predicts COVID‐19 disease severity: a prospective longitudinal study of hospitalized COVID‐19 male patients
A certain genetic variant in the androgen receptor may predict the severity of COVID-19 in men.
research THERAPEUTIC HOTLINE: Genetic variations in the androgen receptor gene and finasteride response in women with androgenetic alopecia mediated by epigenetics
Women with greater androgen sensitivity respond better to finasteride for hair loss.
research COVID‐19, androgens, and androgenic alopecia
COVID-19 may worsen with androgens; anti-androgen drugs could help.
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 In response to the letter to the editor by Soha Ghanian et al. re our publication “Shorter androgen receptor polyQ alleles protect against life-threatening COVID-19 disease in European males”
The authors maintain that shorter androgen receptor alleles may lead to milder COVID-19 by positively affecting the immune response, not due to changes in testosterone levels or activity.
research Social selection favours offspring prone to the development of androgenetic alopecia.
Society's pressure to have children later in life favors genes that increase the risk of early baldness in male offspring.
research Entendendo a alopecia androgenética Understanding androgenetic alopecia Educação Médica Continuada
The document concludes that androgenetic alopecia is common, has a genetic link, and can be diagnosed and treated with medications like finasteride and minoxidil.
research Androgen receptor gene polymorphisms and risk for androgenetic alopecia: a meta-analysis
G allele of AR Stul polymorphism linked to higher hair loss risk, especially in white people.
research Study on genetic polymorphisms of androgen receptor gene and 5α-reductase genes of Han men with androgenetic alopecia in the Eastern China
Shorter GGC triplet repeats in the androgen receptor gene are linked to less hair loss in Han men.
research A Pharmacogenetic Survey of Androgen Receptor (CAG)N and (GGN)N Polymorphisms in Patients Experiencing Long Term Side Effects after Finasteride Discontinuation
Longer CAG and GGN repeats increase alopecia risk, but no significant link to post-finasteride syndrome found.
research Androgen Receptor (AR) Gene (CAG)n and (GGN)n Length Polymorphisms and Symptoms in Young Males With Long-Lasting Adverse Effects After Finasteride Use Against Androgenic Alopecia
Finasteride side effects in young men may be linked to specific gene variations.
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 Androgens/Androgen Receptor in the Management of Skin Diseases
Understanding how androgens and their receptors work can lead to improved treatments for skin diseases.
research DYS459, DYS391, DYS388 and DYS19 genetic loci have high allelic frequency in patients with prostate cancer
Certain genetic markers may increase or decrease prostate cancer risk.
research Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Hair Follicle–Specific Gene, Hacl-1
Researchers found a new gene, hacl-1, that is active in mouse hair follicles during hair growth and may be important for hair biology.
research OsUEV1B, an Ubc enzyme variant protein, is required for phosphate homeostasis in rice
OsUEV1B protein is essential for controlling phosphate levels in rice.
research Epigenetic Effects of Gender-Affirming Hormone Treatment: A Pilot Study of the ESR2 Promoter’s Methylation in AFAB People
Testosterone treatment may change estrogen receptor methylation in AFAB individuals.
research Response to Letter: “Characteristics of Men Who Report Persistent Sexual Symptoms After Finasteride Use for Hair Loss”
Finasteride's sexual side effects not caused by androgen deficiency or SRD5A inhibition.
research Testosterone therapy for transgender men
Testosterone therapy in transgender men has both desired effects like increased muscle mass and potential health risks such as higher cardiovascular risk.
research Sex differences in COVID-19: the role of androgens in disease severity and progression
Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.
research Molecular basis of androgen action on human sexual desire
Testosterone significantly affects sexual desire in both men and women, but its impact on women is more complex and influenced by psychological factors.
