research Phenotypic heterogeneity in human genetic diseases: ultrasensitivity-mediated threshold effects as a unifying molecular mechanism
In this review, the authors emphasize that phenotypic heterogeneity in genetic systems and human diseases is influenced by stochastic fluctuation and network topology, proposing that ultrasensitivity and threshold effects explain this variability, which may inform strategies for preventing and treating genetic diseases.
research Association between androgenetic alopecia and cardiovascular diseases: a genetic correlation and Mendelian randomization study
People with androgenetic alopecia may have a higher genetic risk for cardiovascular diseases.
research Dermatological diseases from a genetic perspective
New gene discoveries have improved diagnosis and treatment for skin and hair disorders, but more research is needed to fully understand them.
research The analysis of genetics and associated autoimmune diseases in Chinese vitiligo patients
Generalized vitiligo in Chinese patients is linked to other autoimmune diseases, especially in familial cases.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Androgenetic alopecia is a skin disease: DHT-mediated skin disorders
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) impacts various skin conditions, including Androgenetic alopecia and seborrheic dermatitis, by causing overactivity in sebaceous glands. Topical medications Tacrolimus and Clobetasol can reduce these inflammatory conditions, and treatments like RU58841, Minoxidil, and Finasteride may also be beneficial.
community CRISPR Is Curing People Right Now. Genetic Hair Loss is Next?
CRISPR shows promise for treating hair loss by targeting specific genes. Current treatments include Minoxidil and finasteride, but CRISPR could offer a more precise solution, though it is still expensive and in early stages.
community What are all of the lifestyle factors that can speed up MPB?
Genetics mainly cause hair loss, but diet, stress, smoking, and alcohol can worsen it. Treatments include finasteride, minoxidil, and lifestyle changes like a healthy diet and avoiding caffeine.
community Pilose antler extracts promotes hair growth in androgenetic alopecia mice by activating hair follicle stem cells via the AKT and Wnt pathways
Pilose antler extracts may promote hair growth in androgenetic alopecia by activating hair follicle stem cells through the AKT and Wnt pathways. However, results in mice may not directly apply to humans due to differences in genetic and biochemical conditions.
community Why do we have head hair in first place if we evolved to start losing it in some cases as soon as puberty hits
Hair loss is influenced by genetics and sensitivity to hormones like DHT. Treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used, and baldness persists as it doesn't affect reproductive success.

6 / 801 results- Thinning hair over time? It might not just be genetics: lack of B1 and B2 could be silently working against you. There is no verified human trial showing that B1 or B2 deficiency causes thinning hair or that correcting it regrows hair; a 2019 review concludes the role of micronutrients in hair loss is real but unclear and still needs controlled trials.
