This review discusses plant-based alternatives to retinoids for dermal antiaging and hair health, highlighting roles for cytokinins and phytoestrogens and reports no new results.

This study found that men with androgenetic alopecia have different scalp biophysical characteristics in androgen-sensitive areas compared to non-sensitive areas and healthy controls.

This review discusses the varied levels of evidence linking nutritional supplements and antioxidants to dermatological disorders, but it reports no new clinical results and highlights the need for rigorous trials.

Certain dietary supplements can improve hair health.

This meta-analysis found that several factors are significantly associated with the presence and progression of androgenetic alopecia, including family history, smoking, alcohol consumption, poor sleep quality, being overweight, hypertension in men, insulin resistance, and high fasting insulin levels.

In this study, 13 androgenetic alopecia patients receiving Er: Yag laser treatment showed a significant increase in Staphylococcus spp. three days post-treatment, suggesting the laser may help modulate scalp microbiota balance.

This abstract mentions that while synthetic drugs like minoxidil and finasteride for androgenic alopecia have side effects, the characteristics of popular natural alternatives, such as soybean, remain largely unreported, despite consumer preference for these products.

In this study, higher dietary antioxidant intake was linked to a decreased risk of androgenic alopecia, while higher dietary inflammatory intake increased the risk, especially among women, although these links were influenced by metabolic syndrome presence.

This study found that certain gut microbiota are linked with androgenetic alopecia, identifying both risk and protective microbial factors, which could inform targeted probiotic strategies for managing AGA.

This study found that individuals with androgenetic alopecia had higher scalp microbiome diversity and more complex scalp-gut microbiome networks than those without, suggesting a link between skin-gut microorganisms and hair loss development.

This review discusses the pathological factors and comorbidities associated with androgenetic alopecia and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for improved understanding and treatment in clinical practice.

This review found a significant association between smoking and androgenetic alopecia, but notes a lack of studies on whether quitting smoking can improve hair loss.

In their study, Tim Spector and colleagues identified a new genetic association at chromosome 20p11.22 with male-pattern baldness, confirmed by the increased risk when combined with a known androgen receptor gene variant.

Gene variation affects prostate issues and hair loss.

This study concluded that allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR) is more reliable than tetra-primer ARMS-PCR for genotyping the SNP rs1998076 due to better stability and interpretability.

This study found that Han Chinese women carrying the rs6152A allele had a significantly higher risk of developing polycystic ovary syndrome compared to those with the rs6152GG genotype.

This study found that the FSHR Ser680Asn (rs6166) gene polymorphism is associated with an increased risk of PCOS in the examined population and could serve as a molecular biomarker for identifying risk.

This study identified multiple mutations in the 5 alpha-reductase-2 gene among male pseudohermaphrodites in the Dominican Republic, suggesting they do not share a common ancestry.

This study found that polymorphism of the SHBG gene (rs1799941) is associated with an increased risk of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Iraqi women.

In this study, no significant change in androgen receptor gene expression was found in females with recurrent spontaneous abortion, but a mutant genotype may offer some protection against the condition.

In this study, researchers found that androgen receptor gene polymorphism is associated with higher androgenetic alopecia grades and PSA levels in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia, but not with prostate cancer.

This study identified a specific LIPH gene mutation (736T>A) as common in Japanese patients with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, potentially indicating its role in the condition's manifestation within this population.

This study found that shorter GGN repeat lengths (≤23) in the androgen receptor gene are associated with androgenetic alopecia among Chinese males, whereas two specific SNPs studied were not present in this population.

In this study, researchers found that a PER3 gene SNP may be pathogenic for a new subtype of dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria, especially when combined with a SASH1 mutation.

In this study, single nucleotide polymorphisms in the RAB5B gene were linked to an increased risk of polycystic ovary syndrome and associated with specific microRNA binding sites.

This study observed wide clinical diversity among five patients with the same VDR gene mutation causing vitamin D-dependent rickets type II, suggesting involvement of a nuclear accessory factor and a nongenomic action of the vitamin.

This study found that the rs3185480 polymorphism in the APCDD1 gene was associated with an elevated risk of developing androgenic alopecia and reduced protein levels, potentially due to altered codon usage affecting translation efficiency.

This study suggests that the DNMT3B -579 G>T polymorphism may be a genetic risk factor for colorectal cancer in the Azerbaijani population.

This case report identifies a novel LIPH gene mutation linked to autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis in a Japanese boy, expanding the spectrum of known mutations associated with this condition.

This study found that prolactin gene polymorphism in Changthangi goats showed no significant association with Cashmere quality traits, indicating the need for further research with larger sample sizes.
