With careful management, people with congenital adrenal hyperplasia can have successful pregnancies and become parents.
research Sp6 Downregulation of Follistatin Gene Expression in Ameloblasts
Sp6 promotes tooth development by reducing follistatin levels.
research Dermatological Manifestations of Down's Syndrome
People with Down's syndrome often have more skin problems due to a weak immune system.
research Evidence for Two Independent Functional Variants for Androgenetic Alopecia Around the Androgen Receptor Gene
Two gene areas linked to male pattern baldness found, more research needed.
research Androgen Receptor Gene CAG and GGN Polymorphisms in Infertile Nigerian Men
Certain gene variations are not a major cause of male infertility in Nigerian men.
research Pharmacogenetic Analysis of Human Steroid 5α Reductase Type II: Comparison of Finasteride and Dutasteride
Dutasteride is more efficient than finasteride, but individual results vary.
research A Humanized Mouse Model of Hereditary 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D–Resistant Rickets Without Alopecia

Sex neurosteroids cause different effects on hippocampal synaptic plasticity in males and females.
research Roles of Steroid Sulfatase in Brain and Other Tissues
Steroid sulfatase is important for activating hormones that affect memory, brain function, and certain diseases, and could be a target for treating hormone-related disorders.
research Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome Associated with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (Testicular Feminization)
A woman had both Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, causing hair loss, and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, making her genetically male but physically female. This suggests androgens don't affect the hair loss condition.
research Interferons in Dermatology
