research Genetic prediction of male pattern baldness
Genetic factors can help predict male pattern baldness risk.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research Significance of the polyglutamine tract polymorphism in the androgen receptor
The length of the CAG repeat in the androgen receptor gene affects the risk and progression of prostate cancer, BPH, infertility, and undermasculinized genitalia.
research Rare and common genetic determinants of metabolic individuality and their effects on human health
Genetic variations greatly affect individual metabolism and can impact health and disease risk.
research Recent advances in the genetics of alopecia areata
New research has found 14 genes linked to the risk of developing alopecia areata, improving understanding and treatment options.
research Clinical Snippets
Vitamin D helps protect skin, PSORS1 gene's risk interval for psoriasis is expanded, hair follicles can be generated from mouse cells, and interferon-γ may cause pigmented skin lesions.
research Male sex hormone and reduced plakoglobin jointly impair atrial conduction and cardiac sodium currents
Male hormones and reduced plakoglobin can impair heart electrical function and increase arrhythmia risk in males.
research A Synonymous Polymorphism of APCDD1 Affects Translation Efficacy and is Associated with Androgenic Alopecia
A specific gene change in APCDD1 increases the risk of hair loss.
research Skin Cancer: Mechanisms and Human Relevance
Skin cancer involves complex mechanisms, risk factors, and can be potentially prevented with strategies like dietary changes and certain compounds.
research The use of scalp cooling for chemotherapy-induced hair loss
Scalp cooling can help prevent hair loss from chemotherapy without raising cancer spread risk.
research Protein Kinase Cε, Which Is Linked to Ultraviolet Radiation-Induced Development of Squamous Cell Carcinomas, Stimulates Rapid Turnover of Adult Hair Follicle Stem Cells
PKC ε increases hair follicle stem cell turnover and may raise skin cancer risk.
research CTLA4 +49AG (rs231775) and CT60 (rs3087243) gene variants are not associated with alopecia areata in a Mexican population from Monterrey Mexico
CTLA4 gene variants are not linked to alopecia areata in Monterrey's Mexican population.
research Construction of regulatory network for alopecia areata progression and identification of immune monitoring genes based on multiple machine-learning algorithms
Researchers found four genes that could help diagnose severe alopecia areata early.
research Identifying causal genes in alopecia areata using integrative analysis of differential expression and Mendelian randomization
Four genes are linked to alopecia areata, with two increasing risk and two offering protection.
research INNOVATIVE APPROACH TO CRC PREVENTION: THE ROLE OF LOW-PENETRATION GENES
Low-penetration genes might help personalize colorectal cancer prevention.
research Interleukin 15 Gene Polymorphism in patients with Alopecia Areata
Targeting IL-15 may help treat Alopecia Areata.
research Clinical course of the first Japanese family with Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis: a follow-up report
The first Japanese family with Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis showed hair condition improvement in a child and highlighted the risk of misdiagnosis.
research Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia is a common disorder causing symptoms like acne and infertility, and it's managed based on symptoms, not just test results. Treatment can improve fertility and reduce miscarriage risk.
research 420 Severe thiopurine-induced myelotoxicity and hair loss in Japanese patients with NUDT15 gene variant: A retrospective case-control study
Screening for the NUDT15 gene variant can prevent severe side effects from thiopurine drugs in East-Asian people.
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 The circadian molecular clock creates epidermal stem cell heterogeneity
The circadian clock affects skin stem cell behavior, impacting aging and cancer risk.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Independent genomewide screens identify the tumor suppressor VTRNA2-1 as a human epiallele responsive to periconceptional environment
The environment around the time of conception can change the VTRNA2-1 gene in a way that lasts for years and may affect disease risk.
research Association analysis of oestrogen receptor beta gene ( ESR2 ) polymorphisms with female pattern hair loss
ESR2 gene variations may be linked to female pattern hair loss.

Alopecia areata involves persistent gene abnormalities and immune activity, even in regrown hair, suggesting a risk of relapse.
research The immune response to COVID ‐19: Does sex matter?
Men and women get COVID-19 at similar rates, but men tend to get sicker and have a higher risk of dying, while women usually have stronger immune responses and vaccine reactions.
research The Associations of Androgen-Related Genes CYP21A2 and CYP19A1 with Severe Acne Vulgaris in Patients from Southwest China
