Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Acne vulgaris is one of the most common skin disorders, and androgen is known to play a key role in the development of acne. However, the exact genetic mechanism by which androgen receptor (AR) gene affects acne development is still unclear. OBJECTIVE: Our study aimed to investigate whether CAG and GGN polymorphism of the AR gene are associated with acne risk. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Two hundred...
