Abstract in brief

  • Androgenetic alopecia, also known as male pattern baldness, is the most common type of progressive hair loss in men, caused by a combination of genetic and hormonal factors.
  • The condition involves the miniaturization of hair follicles due to androgen action, particularly in genetically susceptible areas, with recent research identifying specific genetic risk loci on the X chromosome and chromosome 20p11.
  • Despite progress, the exact causes of androgenetic alopecia are still not fully understood, with ongoing studies indicating it is a polygenic condition involving multiple genes, but more research is needed to clarify the genetic mechanisms.]

兄弟の中で、薄毛の者とそうでない者の両方がいるのも、多数の遺伝的、非遺伝的要因がある影響 ただ日本人男性の半数近くが生涯の内にAGAを発症することを考えると、薄毛の運命から逃れるのは難しい なお、X染色体上にある遺伝子は「原因の一つ」と明らかにされている https://t.co/8Srmcyd1UX
