research 5-Alpha-Reductase Type 2 Deficiency: Is There a Genotype-Phenotype Correlation? A Review
No consistent link between genotype and phenotype in 5-α-Reductase type 2 deficiency.
research Genetic Basis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The document concludes that PCOS has a strong genetic component, but more research is needed to fully understand the specific genes involved.
research Targets to Treat Androgen Excess in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The conclusion is that while oral contraceptive pills are effective for PCOS-related high androgen levels, new treatments with fewer side effects are needed.
research Sexual Problems of Men With Androgenic Alopecia Treated With 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors
Men using hair loss drugs like finasteride may experience sexual side effects like erectile dysfunction, but it's unclear who will be affected and when. Treating depression and sexual symptoms is suggested, as these men often have higher rates of both. More research is needed to understand why these side effects occur.
research Pharmacological Options for Treatment of Hyperandrogenic Disorders
Different drugs can treat high male hormone levels in women, but they have various effects and some may harm a fetus.
research The Association of Gene Expression and Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (rs6152 SNP) in Androgen Receptor Gene with Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion in Iraqi Women
The androgen receptor gene doesn't affect women with recurrent spontaneous abortions, but having a mutant genotype might protect against it.
research Susceptibility Variants on Chromosome 7p21.1 Suggest HDAC9 as a New Candidate Gene for Male-Pattern Baldness
A gene called HDAC9 might be a new factor in male-pattern baldness.
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 Genetic and Hormonal Influence on SARS-CoV-2 Infection Susceptibility
Men may be more vulnerable to severe COVID-19 due to genetic and hormonal factors, but more research is needed.
research The E211 G>A Androgen Receptor Polymorphism Is Associated With a Decreased Risk of Metastatic Prostate Cancer and Androgenetic Alopecia
E211 G>A gene linked to lower risk of severe prostate cancer and hair loss.
research Identification of Llama KRTAP7-1 and KRTAP8-1 Fiber Genes and Polymorphism Screening
Mutations in specific llama genes may affect fiber quality for textiles.
research Supplementary Material for: Polymorphic CAG Repeat Numbers in the Androgen Receptor Gene of Female Pattern Hair Loss in a Han Chinese Population
The number of CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene doesn't significantly affect female pattern hair loss in the Han Chinese population.
research Androgen Receptor Copy Number Variation and Androgenetic Alopecia: A Case-Control Study
No clear link between androgen receptor variation and hair loss, but more research needed.
research Polymorphic CAG Repeat Numbers in the Androgen Receptor Gene of Female Pattern Hair Loss in a Han Chinese Population
No significant link between CAG repeat numbers and female pattern hair loss in Han Chinese population.
research Finding Bald Spots on Chromosome 20p11
New genes linked to male pattern baldness were found on chromosome 20p11.
research The Effects of Estrogens on Linear Bone Growth
Estrogens are key for bone growth spurts in both boys and girls and affect growth into adulthood.
research HSD3B1 Genotypes Conferring Adrenal-Restrictive and Adrenal-Permissive Phenotypes in Prostate Cancer and Beyond
Certain HSD3B1 gene types are linked to worse prostate cancer outcomes and affect treatment response and other health conditions.
research SNP Variation in Male Pattern Hair Loss in Russians with Different Dihydrotestosterone Levels
Certain gene variations increase male hair loss risk, influenced by hormone levels.
research Pilot Study: Genetic Distribution of AR, FGF5, SULT1A1, and CYP3A5 Polymorphisms in Male Mexican Population with Androgenetic Alopecia
Certain genetic variations are linked to hair loss in Mexican men.
research Androgen Receptor Polymorphisms (CAG Repeat Lengths) in Androgenetic Alopecia, Hirsutism, and Acne
Shorter CAG repeats may cause hair and skin issues, while longer ones may link to acne.
research EDA2R Is Associated With Androgenetic Alopecia
EDA2R gene linked to hair loss.
research The Genetics of Androgenetic Alopecia
Genes and hormones cause hair loss, with four genes contributing equally.
research HSD3B1 Gene Polymorphism and Female Pattern Hair Loss in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
HSD3B1 gene variant and being overweight linked to hair loss in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Decreased Androgen Receptor Gene Methylation in Premature Pubarche: A Novel Pathogenetic Mechanism?
Reduced AR gene methylation may cause early pubic hair growth in girls.
research Androgen Receptor Mutations and Polymorphisms in African American Prostate Cancer
African American men with prostate cancer have more androgen receptor mutations, which may lead to more aggressive cancer compared to Caucasian American men.
research Evidence of Increased DNA Methylation of the Androgen Receptor Gene in Occipital Hair Follicles from Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Men with hair loss have more DNA changes in back-of-head hair follicles, possibly protecting them from thinning.
research Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptors Gamma Serum Levels and Gene Polymorphism in Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: A Case-Control Study
Lower PPARγ levels and specific gene variations are linked to more severe Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia.
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.
