research Sperm Aneuploidy in Infertile Male Patients: A Systematic Review of the Literature
Infertile men are more likely to produce sperm with abnormal chromosome numbers, which can affect pregnancy success and embryo health.
research Patched-Associated Tumors: Modifier Genes and Pathogenesis
The document concludes that the development of certain tumors is influenced by genetic background and that a specific gene modification can lead to tumor regression and reduced growth.

5 / 41 resultscommunity Chromosome 20’s balding effects and why fin likely isn’t working for some.
Finasteride is effective for DHT/AR-driven hair loss but not for chromosome 20-driven cases, where treatments like minoxidil, prostaglandin analogs, and low-level laser therapy may be more beneficial. Genetic testing can help determine the underlying cause of hair loss to tailor treatment effectively.
community Hair loss and ethnicity - Caucasian men the most likely to experience hair loss
The conversation discusses how Caucasian men are more likely to experience hair loss due to genetic predisposition, with factors like the androgen receptor on the X chromosome playing a significant role. The user also expresses confusion about the evolutionary reasons for hair loss, especially in colder climates where it would seem beneficial to retain hair for warmth.
community What the hell happened in my family genes?
A user is frustrated about early balding despite older male relatives retaining hair into old age. Another user plans to start finasteride soon to address their hair thinning.
community No side effects on pyrilutamide / KX-826 so far
User TopBack56 and friends tried pyrilutamide (KX-826) for hair loss without experiencing negative side effects. They observed fine vellus hairs but no thick hair growth yet, and plan to add GT20029 to their regime after safety trials.
community If ancient hunter gatherer women had just selected for men with hair we wouldn't be in this mess
Hair loss is humorously blamed on ancient selection preferences, with discussions on genetics and societal norms. Treatments like finasteride are mentioned as modern solutions.
