December 2022 in “Frontiers in Microbiology” This study investigated the differences in the scalp and gut microbiome between individuals with androgenetic alopecia (AGA) and healthy controls in a Korean cohort of 141 participants. The results showed that the scalp microbiome of individuals with AGA had higher alpha diversity indices, particularly in women, indicating a more diverse bacterial community. The study also found that the scalp temperature was higher in men with AGA compared to healthy controls. Additionally, significant differences in hydration parameters were observed in both women and men with AGA. However, no significant differences were found in the gut microbiome diversity based on the presence of AGA. The findings suggest that the scalp microbiome, rather than the gut microbiome, may play a more critical role in the pathogenesis of AGA.

January 2020 in “Indian Journal of Dermatology” The study investigated the association between Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms (Taq-1 and Cdx-1) and Female Pattern Hair Loss (FPHL) in 30 female patients and 30 age-matched healthy controls. It found that certain genotypes and alleles of Taq-1 (CC, TC, T) and Cdx-1 (AA, GA, G) were significantly more prevalent in FPHL patients, increasing disease risk by various folds (Taq-1: 12.6, 2.1, 2.9; Cdx-1: 7.5, 5.2, 5.5). The study concluded that these polymorphisms could be considered risk factors for FPHL, potentially affecting disease persistence by hindering new anagen growth and reducing hair follicle stem cell proliferation. Further research was recommended to confirm these findings.

January 2019 in “Journal of Research in Medical Sciences” This study investigated the impact of GGC and CAG repeat polymorphisms on the androgen receptor gene in response to finasteride therapy in 25 men with androgenetic alopecia (AGA) and 25 healthy controls. It found that the number of CAG repeats did not significantly affect treatment outcomes. However, a lower number of GGC sequences correlated with better clinical responses to finasteride, including stopping hair loss, new hair growth, and higher patient satisfaction. The study concluded that the number of GGC sequences could influence the effectiveness of finasteride treatment in AGA patients.
