This genome-wide association study of over 70,000 men identified 71 genetic loci linked to male pattern baldness, highlighting pathways that could help explain its underlying biology.

This study suggests that the AR/EDA2R locus may contribute to early-onset female pattern hair loss, but no association was found with the 20p11 locus.

This study identified MPB susceptibility genes and potential drug candidates that may help uncover molecular mechanisms and address male-pattern baldness.

This study suggests that the HDAC9 gene is a third susceptibility gene for male-pattern baldness, with significant associations found in both German and Australian samples.

This study identified robust susceptibility genes and potential drug candidates for male-pattern baldness, providing insights into the condition's molecular mechanisms.

This genome-wide association study identified 71 genetic loci linked to male pattern baldness, with 30 novel loci, explaining 38% of the risk and suggesting shared pathways with lifespan and cancer traits.

In their study, Tim Spector and colleagues identified a new genetic association at chromosome 20p11.22 with male-pattern baldness, confirmed by the increased risk when combined with a known androgen receptor gene variant.

In this study, researchers found a significant association between the rs13405699 SNP at 2q31.1 and male pattern baldness among Han Chinese men, suggesting genetic influence on this condition in this population.

In this study, researchers found that while the SNP rs6152 is strongly associated with androgenetic alopecia, the GGN triplet repeat is not, suggesting the causative variant is likely a non-coding one.

Six new risk spots for early hair loss were found, which also link to Parkinson's disease and lower fertility. Two genes, FOXA2 and HDAC4, could be new treatment targets. Hair loss might also be connected to heart disease, metabolic syndrome, and prostate cancer.

This study found that early-onset androgenetic alopecia in individuals of European ancestry is significantly associated with increased odds of Parkinson's disease and is influenced by specific genetic loci, including some linked to reduced fertility.

No link found between new male baldness genes and female hair loss.

This study found no significant association between genetic loci linked to male androgenetic alopecia and female-pattern hair loss in a Chinese Han population, suggesting they are etiologically separate disorders.

This study found six new genetic factors linked to early-onset androgenetic alopecia and its association with increased risk of Parkinson's disease and decreased fertility.

In this study, researchers reconstituted the face of Bayard, a historical French knight, using cranial characteristics, DNA analyses for skin, eye, and hair traits, and digital analysis of his portrait.

This review highlights recent genetic research advancements in understanding hereditary hair diseases but reports no new study results, emphasizing the identification of genes related to both monogenic and polygenic hair disorders.

This review explores finasteride's effects on neuroactive steroid levels and their potential influence on disorders like depression and alcohol withdrawal but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that parents of women with PCOS have a higher prevalence of insulin resistance and Type II diabetes than parents of healthy women.

This letter discusses a study where obesity was linked to hirsutism but not androgenetic alopecia in children and adolescents, contrasting with previous findings in adult men.

This review discusses genome-wide association studies in dermatology, noting that variants linked to risk for 10 skin complex diseases have been identified, with potential implications for diagnostics and management; it reports no new clinical results.

This study explores how Ayurveda concepts, specifically Prakruti, relate to male pattern baldness, suggesting that individual constitutional types may predict susceptibility to earlier hair loss when influenced by modern lifestyle factors.

In this study, Hamilton (1942) reported that the susceptibility to balding increases with age and is expressed more rapidly when older men begin androgen treatment.

This review summarizes the genetic studies on female pattern hair loss, highlighting the lack of clearly identified susceptibility loci and suggesting distinct aetiological differences from male pattern hair loss.

This study located a potential genetic link for androgenetic alopecia on chromosome 3q26, marking an early step in identifying new susceptibility genes for male pattern baldness.

This study in a Korean population identified two novel genetic variants that may increase the risk of androgenetic alopecia, contributing to understanding its genetic basis in non-European populations.

This study identified new genetic variants on chromosome 20p11 associated with male pattern baldness.

This study identified five potential molecular targets for future androgenetic alopecia therapy using genome-wide gene-expression investigations and bioinformatics analyses.

This source explores alopecia areata, an immune-mediated disorder causing patchy hair loss due to immunological attacks on hair follicles, with a complex interaction of genetic, environmental, and immunological factors, particularly T-cell-mediated inflammation, contributing to its onset.

This abstract explains that alopecia areata is an immune-mediated condition causing non-scarring hair loss, typically in genetically predisposed individuals, with its etiology linked to immune dysregulation, environmental stressors, and genetic factors.
