“…Recent genetic findings have clarified that genes encoding the enzymes 21-hydroxylase ( CYP21A2 ), steroid 5α-reductase type I ( SRD5A1 ), and androgen receptor ( AR ), the somatotropic axis ( GH1, GHR, IGF1, IGFBP3, and IGF1R ), and the forkhead box transcription factor class O1A ( FOXO1A ), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ( PPARA, PPARB, PPARG, PPARD ), FGF-2 ( FGF2 ), melanocortin receptor ( MC5R, MC1R ), matrix metalloprotease ( MMP1, MMP2, MMP3, MMP9, MMP13 ), TNF-α ( TNF ), IL-1α ( IL1A ), and Toll-like receptors ( TLR2 and TLR4 ) are implicated in the pathogenesis of acne 13 , 14 .…”
