June 2026 in “Health Science Reports” This review proposes a theoretical model for treating androgenetic alopecia using STEAP3 protein, based on recent findings about genetic mutations affecting molecular pathways, but emphasizes that this hypothesis needs validation through laboratory and clinical studies.
January 2026 in “Biology” This review discusses the complex genetic factors contributing to androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the variability in genetic risk across different populations and the emerging understanding of personalized treatment strategies, but reports no new clinical findings.
May 2008 in “Hair transplant forum international” This abstract provides no results, as it only notes Sharon Keene's professional role and describes a non-blood test for AGA genetics.
