research Alopecia areata but not androgenetic alopecia is characterized by a restricted and oligoclonal T-cell receptor-repertoire among infiltrating lymphocytes
Alopecia areata involves specific T-cells, unlike androgenetic alopecia.
research Apocrine sweat gland obstruction by antiperspirants allowing transdermal absorption of cutaneous generated hormones and pheromones as a link to the observed incidence rates of breast and prostate cancer in the 20th century
The document suggests that blocking sweat glands with antiperspirants might allow skin-generated hormones to be absorbed, possibly increasing breast and prostate cancer risk.

Drugs for hormone-related conditions might help treat mental disorders but could have serious side effects.
research No evidence for THAP1/DYT6 variants as disease modifiers in DYT1 dystonia
THAP1 gene changes do not affect DYT1 dystonia; finasteride may help reduce tics and OCD in Tourette syndrome.
research Polymorphic CAG repeat numbers in the androgen receptor gene of female pattern hair loss patients
Longer CAG repeats in gene linked to more severe hair loss in females.
research Effects of 1?,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 and calcipotriol on organotypic cultures of outer root sheath cells: a potential model to evaluate antipsoriatic drugs
