This study found that specific SNPs in the CXCL1 and CXCL2 genes may be associated with increased susceptibility to alopecia areata in the Korean population.

This study observed that men with frontal and moderate vertex baldness between ages 40 and 50 had a higher risk of aggressive prostate cancer, suggesting a potential link between baldness pattern and cancer risk.

This study identified four genetic loci on chromosomes 6, 10, 16, and 18 that may contribute to susceptibility for alopecia areata and suggested shared genetic factors with psoriasis.

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 review summarizes current understanding and genetic insights into androgenetic alopecia, female pattern hair loss, and alopecia areata, noting the potential future role of molecular diagnostics, but it reports no new clinical results.

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.

Six new genes linked to early hair loss were found, which also surprisingly connect to Parkinson's disease and lower fertility.

Six new genes linked to early hair loss were found, which also surprisingly connect to Parkinson's disease and lower fertility.

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.

Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.

This study provides evidence that a polygenic component contributes to the heritable risk for androgenetic alopecia, indicating the need for further research to identify the complex biological pathways involved.

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 study reports that low levels of HDL cholesterol and IGF-1 were associated with a higher risk of hair loss in middle-aged women, but causal relationships remain uncertain.

Certain genes influence the direction of hair whorls on the scalp.

This study identified more than 100 genetic loci associated with hair color variation in Europeans, explaining a significant portion of the trait's heritability and advancing understanding of hair pigmentation.

This systematic review and meta-analysis found 30 genetic loci associated with skin ageing phenotypes, noting shared biological pathways in aspects like pigmentation and wrinkling; researchers suggest further studies targeting the same SNP across populations could clarify these associations.

This review provides a comprehensive synthesis of skin aging research, highlighting the interplay of genetic and environmental factors, cellular mechanisms, and advances in diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, while also addressing current debates and future directions in the anti-aging field.

This study found that SNPs in the MVK, ARPC1B, and CA2 genes may indicate a genetic predisposition for severe acne related to steroidogenesis.

This study found that male pattern baldness in European males is strongly heritable and associated with genetic markers linked to earlier puberty, bone density, and pancreatic function.

This article reviews the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of female pattern hair loss, highlighting the importance of early medical intervention to arrest hair loss progression, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, men with androgenetic alopecia had lower BMI and waist-to-hip ratios than controls, but no significant association with hypertension or other lifestyle factors was observed.

In this study, 21.1% of participants had actinic keratoses, with higher prevalence in men, and certain genetic and photoaging factors were positively associated with AK, though smoking was linked to reduced risk.

This study found that structural defects in the hair shafts of sighthounds with bald thigh syndrome are related to a downregulation of genes and proteins essential for hair shaft formation.

This review discusses the classification, diagnosis, and potential treatment pathways for Alopecia Areata, emphasizing the complex genetic and immunological factors involved, but reports no new clinical results.

Among a Han Chinese cohort, this study found that a higher genetic risk score was linked to increased susceptibility to BPH, larger prostate size, reduced effectiveness of 5ARI treatment, and a higher risk of undergoing TURP.

This study reviewed existing literature and found that androgenic alopecia may be associated with cardiovascular risk factors, while evidence for alopecia areata and cicatricial alopecias is limited and sometimes contradictory.

This study observed a strong negative association between the HLA-DQB1*0201 allele and the alopecia totalis/alopecia universalis phenotype in Caucasian individuals, indicating a potential protective role.

This study found that individuals with AA have a higher incidence of atopic and autoimmune conditions, suggesting both Th1 and Th2 immune responses may play a role in its development.

This study found that hypospadias in male children is significantly associated with genetic polymorphisms in the Steroid 5 alpha reductase type 2 gene, higher parental age, consanguinity, rural residence, and preterm labor, with maternal age and rural residence being the strongest independent predictors.

This study reported that Taiwanese pre-teens and teenagers with atopic diseases, such as food allergies and asthma, had a significantly increased risk of developing alopecia areata, with the risk being 9.66 times higher compared to their peers without atopic conditions.
