research Therapeutic Hotline: Genetic Variations in the Androgen Receptor Gene and Finasteride Response in Women with Androgenetic Alopecia Mediated by Epigenetics
Women with greater androgen sensitivity respond better to finasteride for hair loss.
research The Genetics of Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata has a complex genetic basis that was not fully understood as of 2001.

Zouboulis syndrome is a rare condition that helps diagnose monosomy 18p early.
research Secondary Infertility Due to Use of Low-Dose Finasteride
Low-dose finasteride may cause fertility issues, but stopping it can improve sperm quality and lead to pregnancy.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors: A New Hope in Dermatology?
Finasteride shows promise for treating hair loss and excessive hair growth, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness and safety.

A patient with steroid sulfatase deficiency had a unique hair pattern and a brain malformation not previously linked to the condition.
research Genomewide Differential Expression Profiling of Long Non-Coding RNAs in Androgenetic Alopecia in a Chinese Male Population
Found different long non-coding RNAs in balding Chinese men, which may help create new treatments.
research Perspectives in Dermatopathology: Telomeres and Telomerase in Aging and Cancer with Emphasis on Cutaneous Disease
Short telomeres contribute to aging and cancer, and while telomerase can delay aging, it may also promote cancer.
research Generation of Pax1/PAX1-Specific Monoclonal Antibodies
Researchers created specific antibodies that detect a protein important in development and various conditions, and can be used for research and diagnosis.
research Polymorphic CAG Repeat Numbers in the Androgen Receptor Gene of Female Pattern Hair Loss Patients
Longer CAG repeats in gene linked to more severe hair loss in females.
research Investigation on Microecology of Hair Root Fungi in Androgenetic Alopecia Patients
Malassezia yeast linked to hair loss; ketoconazole helps treat it.
research The Androgen Receptor Gene Polyglycine Repeat Polymorphism Is Associated With Memory Performance In Healthy Chinese Individuals
Certain gene variations are linked to better memory in healthy Chinese women.
research Identification and Characterization of a Novel Pathogenic Mutation in the Human Lipodystrophy Gene AGPAT2
A new mutation in the AGPAT2 gene causes severe fat tissue loss and related health issues by reducing the protein's levels.
research Experimental Cutaneous Bacillus Anthracis Infections in Hairless HRS/J Mice
Hairless HRS/J mice resist Bacillus anthracis skin infections due to high numbers of immune cells, not because they lack hair follicles.
research Three Cases of Androgen-Dependent Disease Associated with Myotonic Dystrophy
Women with myotonic dystrophy might get diseases related to male hormones because their body tissues are extra sensitive to these hormones.
research Lipin 1 Gene Polymorphisms in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
