research A Pharmacogenetic Survey of Androgen Receptor (CAG)N and (GGN)N Polymorphisms in Patients Experiencing Long-Term Side Effects After Finasteride Discontinuation
Longer CAG and GGN repeats increase alopecia risk, but no significant link to post-finasteride syndrome found.
research An Immune Regulatory CCT Repeat Containing Oligodeoxynucleotide Capable of Causing Hair Loss in Male Mice
A specific DNA sequence caused hair loss in male mice by activating immune cells and increasing a certain immune signal.
research Perspectives of Kennedy's Disease
Kennedy's disease leads to muscle weakness and sensory issues, has no cure but manageable symptoms, and future treatments look promising.

Women with greater androgen sensitivity respond better to finasteride for hair loss.
research Acne
Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.
research Response to Letter Regarding Androgen Receptor PolyQ Alleles and COVID-19
The authors maintain that shorter androgen receptor alleles may lead to milder COVID-19 by positively affecting the immune response, not due to changes in testosterone levels or activity.
research Kennedy's Disease and Partial Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome: Report of 4 Cases and Literature Review
The conclusion is that adult males with muscle weakness and hormonal imbalances should be tested for Kennedy's disease.
research Androgen Receptor Gene Polymorphism and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The conclusion is that androgen receptor gene polymorphism might be a marker for polycystic ovary syndrome, but more research is needed.
research Interaction Between Estrogens and Androgen Receptor Genes Microsatellites, Prostate-Specific Antigen, and Androgen Receptor Expressions in Breast Cancer
Certain gene patterns in breast cancer are linked to how active hormone receptors are and could affect patient survival.
research Genetic Variation in the Human Androgen Receptor Gene Is the Major Determinant of Common Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia
Genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene mainly causes early-onset hair loss, with maternal inheritance playing a key role.
research Pathways to Inflammation: Acne Pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research COVID-19, Androgens, and Androgenic Alopecia
COVID-19 may worsen with androgens; anti-androgen drugs could help.
research Increased Androgen Receptor Messenger RNA in Frontal-Parietal Hair Follicles of Women with Androgenetic Alopecia
Women with hair loss have more androgen receptors in certain hair follicles.
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 Androgen Receptors And Their Biology
Androgen receptors are key for development and health, affecting conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness.
research The Efficacy and Use of Finasteride in Women: A Systematic Review
Finasteride improves hair growth and reduces hirsutism in women, but side effects and optimal dosages need further research.
research Prenatal Androgenization of Ewes as a Model of Hirsutism in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Prenatally androgenized ewes can model increased hair diameter in women with PCOS.
research Role of Polymorphism of the Androgen Receptor Gene and Non-Random X Chromosome Inactivation in the Genesis of Androgenic Alopecia in Women of Childbearing Potential
Certain gene variations and irregular X chromosome activity may contribute to hair loss in women who can have children.
research Androgens and Androgen Receptor in the Management of Skin Diseases
Understanding how androgens and their receptors work can lead to improved treatments for skin diseases.
research Response to Letter: Characteristics of Men Who Report Persistent Sexual Symptoms After Finasteride Use for Hair Loss
Finasteride's sexual side effects not caused by androgen deficiency or SRD5A inhibition.
research Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy: Pathogenesis and Clinical Management
Kennedy's disease leads to muscle weakness without a cure, but exercise and managing symptoms may help patients live a normal lifespan.
research Testosterone Therapy for Transgender Men: Effects and Safety
Testosterone therapy in transgender men has both desired effects like increased muscle mass and potential health risks such as higher cardiovascular risk.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research Men With Kennedy Disease Have a Reduced Risk of Androgenetic Alopecia
Men with Kennedy disease have less chance of hair loss.

Hormones and genes affect hair growth and male baldness.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: A Review
Male pattern baldness involves genetics, hormones, and needs better treatments.
research Sex Differences in COVID-19: The Role of Androgens in Disease Severity and Progression
Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.
research Hormonal Regulation of Hair Follicles Exhibits a Biological Paradox
Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.
