This study found that dutasteride pretreatment reduced certain sedative effects of alcohol and may decrease drinking behavior in adult men, likely by impacting neuroactive steroid levels.

This study found that placental growth factor (PlGF) enhanced hair shaft elongation and accelerated hair follicle growth, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target for alopecia.

This review discusses how the HSD3B1(1245C) genotype may impact androgen physiology and the progression of castration-resistant prostate cancer, and does not report new experimental results.

In this study, variation in the KRTAP15-1 gene in goats was linked to changes in cashmere fibre diameter, with specific variants showing dominant or recessive effects.

This study identified four new genetic loci associated with acne risk and highlighted key pathways involved in its genetic predisposition, potentially explaining 9.4% of acne's phenotypic variance.

This review discusses the differential diagnosis of low-renin hypertension and highlights recent genetic discoveries related to familial forms, but it presents no new clinical results.

This review summarizes the influence of gene polymorphisms on genetic predisposition to polycystic ovary syndrome, but reports no new experimental or clinical results.

This study found that increased serum A4A levels were associated with more severe polycystic ovary syndrome phenotypes and could be a useful marker for biochemical hyperandrogenemia.

This abstract contains only supplementary material information and reports no new research findings.

This study found that ancient and modern Chinese goats share close genetic ties, originating from the Fertile Crescent, with genetic divergence influenced by China's climatic divisions.

This study identified three candidate genes (CORT, FGF5, and CD36) associated with cold climate adaptation in Yanbian cattle through genome resequencing and comparison with African tropical cattle.

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.

In this study, researchers identified two independent genetic variants near the androgen receptor gene strongly associated with androgenetic alopecia in men.

This review discusses various aspects of hair follicle biology and highlights unresolved questions and potential new research avenues, but presents no new experimental findings.

In this study, full-size KRT81 was expressed in both normal breast epithelial and breast cancer cells, and contributed to the migration and invasion abilities of breast cancer cells.

This study found that specific SHBG gene variants and haplotypes are associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting that SHBG may be a candidate gene for the condition.

Darker hair may lead to higher cortisol readings, suggesting a need to adjust for hair color in studies.

This study identified specific germline and somatic mutations in the Phospholipase C Delta 1 gene as high-risk factors for developing hereditary trichilemmal cysts, involving a monoallelic two-hit mechanism.

This study found that prenatal exposure to androgens caused long-lasting heart remodeling and left ventricular hypertrophy in female mice offspring, suggesting potential cardiac risks for daughters of mothers with PCOS.

This review examines how genetic variants associated with polycystic ovary syndrome affect reproductive success differently in men and women, supporting the theory that intralocus sexual conflict may explain its persistence.

In this study, researchers identified a novel KRT74 gene mutation associated with autosomal recessive pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia in a Pakistani family, expanding the known genetic causes of the disorder.

No link found between new male baldness genes and female hair loss.

This study identified a novel missense MAFB variant in a family with some unaffected members, suggesting incomplete penetrance and the potential influence of modifier genes, epigenetic mechanisms, or environmental factors on MCTO phenotype.

This review discusses the diagnostic challenges of PCOS in adolescents, noting that the persistence of hyperandrogenism and oligomenorrhea is required for diagnosis, while genetic studies suggest involvement of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis.

This study found no significant association between selected gene variants and female pattern hair loss, suggesting these genes might not be involved in its development.

This study identified an association between the FTO gene and susceptibility to PCOS, providing the first genetic evidence linking PCOS to obesity.

The researchers found that HOXC13 regulates different keratin proteins in a mixed manner, with certain SNPs impeding this regulation, while also demonstrating negative-feedback by HOXC13 and positive regulation by LEF1 and melatonin on the HOXC13 promoter.

This study found that mutations in certain keratin genes significantly affect wool traits in Chinese Merino sheep, suggesting these genes could be important for sheep breeding to improve wool quality.

This paper discusses the link between polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and health issues like infertility and cardiovascular diseases, caused by both genetic and environmental factors, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review summarizes current genetic knowledge of alopecia areata and provides a theoretical framework for future genetic mapping studies, but reports no new results.
