research Lack of concordance and linkage disequilibrium among brothers for androgenetic alopecia and CAG/GGC haplotypes of the androgen receptor gene in Mexican families
No clear link between specific gene and hair loss in Mexican brothers.
research Current issues on the genetic implications and treatment of androgenic alopecia
Hair loss is linked to heart disease and metabolic syndrome, and while current treatments vary in effectiveness, more research is needed for better solutions.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Precision therapeutics in non-scarring alopecia: a systemic genomic and pathway-based framework for targeted interventions
Personalized treatments for hair loss focus on specific genetic and biological pathways.
research Androgen receptor gene polymorphism and biological age markers in men
AR gene variations don't affect aging markers in men.
research Observations of root hair patterning in soils: Insights from synchrotron-based X-ray computed microtomography
Root hairs in maize grow mainly in air-filled pores, limiting their role in nutrient uptake and plant anchorage.
research Encapsulación en ciclodextrinas de compuestos con actividad frente a la alopecia androgénica masculina.
Encapsulating hair loss drugs in cyclodextrins improves their solubility and reduces scalp irritation.
research Lower prostate cancer risk in Swedish men with the androgen receptor E213 A-allele
Swedish men with the E213 A-allele of the androgen receptor have a lower risk of prostate cancer.
research Risk factors for prostate cancer: a case-control study investigating selected key exposures and their interactions with predisposition genes
Age, race, family history, and certain genetic factors increase prostate cancer risk.
research Molecular genetics of androgen insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.
research Structures of three polycystic kidney disease-like domains fromClostridium histolyticumcollagenases ColG and ColH
The study concludes that certain domains in Clostridium histolyticum enzymes are structurally unique, bind calcium to become more stable, and play distinct roles in breaking down collagen, with potential applications in medicine and drug delivery.
research Recent Progress and Morphological Distribution of Polydopamine-Based Biomaterials and Their Applications
Polydopamine is promising for personalized medicine and biomedical technology due to its strong adhesion and biocompatibility.
