research Genetic analysis of 5 α reductase type 2 enzyme in relation to oxidative stress in cases of androgenetic alopecia in a sample of egyptian population
5α reductase type 2 enzyme mutation and oxidative stress may increase androgenetic alopecia risk in Egyptians.
research The genetics of androgenetic alopecia
Genes and hormones cause hair loss, with four genes contributing equally.
research Role of genetics and sex steroid hormones in male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss: An update of what we now know
Genetics and hormones play a role in male and female hair loss, but more research is needed to fully understand it.
research Update on the Genetics of Androgenetic Alopecia, Female Pattern Hair Loss, and Alopecia Areata: Implications for Molecular Diagnostic Testing
Genetic factors affect hair loss, and molecular testing may help predict, diagnose, and treat it.
research Hormonal regulation in male androgenetic alopecia—Sex hormones and beyond: Evidence from recent genetic studies
Hormones and genes affect hair growth and male baldness.
research Cross-species sensitivity to a novel androgen receptor agonist of potential environmental concern, spironolactone
Spironolactone harms fish reproduction and is more potent in fish than invertebrates, needing environmental monitoring.
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 Insights into Male Androgenetic Alopecia: Differential Gene Expression Profiling of Plucked Hair Follicles and Integration with Genetic Data
Gene differences found in hair follicles linked to male baldness.
research The relationship among androgens, insulin resistanceand ghrelin polymorphisms in post-adolescent malepatients with severe acne vulgaris
Lower ghrelin levels and certain gene variations may increase acne risk.
research Expression of mRNA for androgen receptor, 5alpha-reductase and 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in human dermal papilla cells
Hair sensitivity to androgens is partly controlled by specific enzyme expressions in different hair areas.
research 7 Regulation of androgen receptor and 5α-reductase in the skin of normal and hirsute women
The exact cause of increased 5α-reductase activity leading to hirsutism in women is still unknown.
research Genetic ablation of myelin protein zero-like 3 in mice increases energy expenditure, improves glycemic control, and reduces hepatic lipid synthesis
Removing myelin protein zero-like 3 in mice leads to better metabolism and resistance to obesity.
research Androgenetic Alopecia in Gender Minority Patients
AGA treatments like minoxidil and LLLLT are safe and effective for gender minority patients.
research Increased androgen receptor messenger RNA in frontal-parietal hair follicles of women with androgenetic alopecia
Women with hair loss have more androgen receptors in certain hair follicles.
research Androgen Signaling Regulates SARS-CoV-2 Receptor Levels and Is Associated with Severe COVID-19 Symptoms in Men
Male hormones affect COVID-19 severity and certain drugs targeting these hormones could help reduce the risk.
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 No Evidence that 2D:4D is Related to the Number of CAG Repeats in the Androgen Receptor Gene
Finger length ratios are not linked to the number of specific gene repeats affecting testosterone sensitivity.
research Assessment of the usefulness of dihydrotestosterone in the diagnostics of patients with androgenetic alopecia
DHT's role in hair loss is important, but measuring its level for diagnosis is questionable.
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 The hairless gene in androgenetic alopecia: results of a systematic mutation screening and a family-based association approach
Hairless gene not strongly linked to baldness.
research Three cases of androgen‐dependent disease associated with myotonic dystrophy
Women with myotonic dystrophy might get diseases related to male hormones because their body tissues are extra sensitive to these hormones.
research A Study of the androgen receptor gene polymorphism and the level of expression of the androgen receptor in androgenetic alopecia among Egyptians
The study suggests that a specific gene variation and higher gene activity are linked to increased baldness in Egyptian men.
research The presence of insulin resistance and comparison of various insulin sensivity indices in women with androgenetic alopecia.
Women with androgenetic alopecia (AGA) are more insulin resistant than healthy women, with various insulin sensitivity indices being higher in the AGA group. An oral glucose tolerance test is suggested for women with AGA.
research Use of genetics in the prediction of success in male pattern hair loss therapy and mechanistic studies
Genetics can help tailor treatments for male pattern hair loss, improving outcomes like stabilization or modest regrowth.
research Genetic analysis of the role of androgen metabolism in the pathogenesis of prostate cancer
Certain genetic markers can indicate a person's risk of developing prostate cancer.
research Androgen Receptor Polymorphisms (CAG Repeat Lengths) in Androgenetic Alopecia, Hirsutism, and Acne
Shorter CAG repeats may cause hair and skin issues, while longer ones may link to acne.
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 Six Novel Susceptibility Loci for Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia and Their Unexpected Association with Common Diseases
Six new genetic regions linked to early hair loss also connect to Parkinson's disease and prostate cancer, possibly leading to new treatments.
research Androgenetic alopecia in men and women
Androgenetic alopecia involves genetics, hormones, and can be treated with medications or surgery.
