Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

Different human traits like skin color and hair type vary between populations due to genetic adaptations to the environment.

Genetic analysis of rabbits identified key genes for traits like coat color, body size, and fertility.
