research Role of polymorphism of the androgen receptor gene and non-random X chromosome inactivation in the genesis of androgenic alopecia in women of childbearing potential
Certain gene variations and irregular X chromosome activity may contribute to hair loss in women who can have children.
research The role of the androgen receptor gene CAG repeat polymorphism and X-chromosome inactivation pattern in postmenopausal female pattern hair loss
research Characterization of X-Linked SNP genotypic variation in globally distributed human populations
The research concluded that selection significantly shaped the genetic variation of the X chromosome, with certain regions affected by past selective events.
research It’s X-Related: Biological Bases of Increased COVID-19 Morbidity and Mortality in Men
Men have worse COVID-19 outcomes than women due to genetic and hormonal differences.
research Genetic Variation in the Human Androgen Receptor Gene Is the Major Determinant of Common Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia
Genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene mainly causes early-onset hair loss, with maternal inheritance playing a key role.
research Genome-wide association meta-analysis of individuals of European ancestry identifies new loci explaining a substantial fraction of hair color variation and heritability
New genetic locations explain much of hair color variation in Europeans.
research Hunting the genes in male‐pattern alopecia: how important are they, how close are we and what will they tell us?
Genes play a significant role in male-pattern baldness, and understanding them could lead to new treatments and insights into related health issues.
research Prediction of male-pattern baldness from genotypes
Genetic data can predict male-pattern baldness with moderate accuracy, especially for early-onset cases in some European men.
research The Roles of EDA2R in Ageing and Disease
EDA2R is a key gene linked to ageing and diseases, and targeting it may help treat conditions like hair loss and chronic diseases.
research The genetics of androgenetic alopecia
Genes and hormones cause hair loss, with four genes contributing equally.
research Psoriasis y alopecia areata con traquioniquia concurrente en una paciente pediátrica con síndrome de Turner
A girl with Turner syndrome had psoriasis, alopecia areata, and trachyonychia.
research A Tale of Two Haplotypes: The EDA2R/AR Intergenic Region is the Most Divergent Genomic Segment between Africans and East Asians in the Human Genome
The most different genetic segment between Africans and East Asians is the EDA2R/AR region, with two main types influenced by population changes and natural selection, and linked to baldness.
research Treatment-resistant Schizophrenia and Global Cortical Atrophy in a Patient with Turner Syndrome
A person with Turner Syndrome showed severe schizophrenia that didn't respond to treatment and had brain shrinkage.
research Coexistence of psoriasis, and alopecia areata with trachyonychia in a pediatric patient with Turner Syndrome
A 6-year-old girl with Turner syndrome also had psoriasis, alopecia areata, and trachyonychia.
research Uncovering the genetic architecture and evolutionary roots of androgenetic alopecia in African men
Genetic predictions of baldness in Europeans don't apply well to African men.
research Dissection of genetic variation and evidence for pleiotropy in male pattern baldness
Male pattern baldness is mostly inherited, involves many genes, and is linked to other traits like early puberty and strong bones.
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 Polymorphism of CAG and GGN repeats of androgen receptor gene in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Longer GGN repeats in the androgen receptor gene are linked to polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Cheveu, vieillissement et environnement : aspects cliniques épidémiologiques
Environmental factors like smoking, UV exposure, and poor diet contribute to hair loss and graying, and lifestyle changes can help manage it.
research Androgenetic Alopecia in Men: An Update On Genetics
Androgenetic alopecia in men is genetic and linked to health issues like obesity and heart disease, with treatments including minoxidil, finasteride, and hair transplants.
research Uncovering the genetic architecture and evolutionary roots of androgenetic alopecia in African men
The research found that genetic factors for male pattern baldness in African men differ significantly from those in Europeans.
research British Society for Dermatopathology
Dermatologists give better information on pathology forms, hypersensitivity vasculitis is a common skin issue, misdiagnoses can occur, and various skin conditions are linked to loss of elastin or genetic factors.
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 7 Pathogenesis and Classification of Male Pattern Hair Loss (Androgenic Alopecia)
Male pattern hair loss is mainly caused by genetics and hormones, especially DHT.
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 Cosmeceutical Treatments for Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA is caused by genetics and androgens, treatable with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Six novel susceptibility Loci for early-onset androgenetic alopecia and their unexpected association with common diseases
Early-onset hair loss is linked to Parkinson's disease and decreased fertility.
research Familial congenital generalized hypertrichosis
A girl inherited excessive body hair from her mother and grandmother.
research ANDROGENIC ALOPECIA: PATHOGENETIC MECHANISMS AND THERAPEUTIC APPROACHES
The document concludes that current treatments for androgenic alopecia are not fully effective, but new therapies like botulinum toxin and PRP show promise, and future gene therapy could be beneficial.
