research Dihydrotestosterone Regulates Hair Growth Through the Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway in C57BL/6 Mice and In Vitro Organ Culture
Dihydrotestosterone affects hair growth by changing the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, with low levels helping and high levels hindering growth.
research Curcumin derivatives inhibit testicular 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 3
Curcumin and its derivatives can block an enzyme important for making testosterone, with one derivative being particularly strong.

The guidelines ensure accurate genetic testing and reporting for 21-hydroxylase deficiency.
research Immunolocalization of Enzymes, Binding Proteins, and Receptors Sufficient for Retinoic Acid Synthesis and Signaling During the Hair Cycle
Retinoic acid production and signaling in hair follicles are regulated by location and timing, affecting hair growth and cycling.
research 5α-reductase activity in the prostate
Blocking the enzyme 5α-reductase can shrink the prostate and help treat enlarged prostate issues.
research DHT and E2 synthesis-related proteins and receptors expression in male yak skin during different hair follicle stages
Male yak hair growth is influenced by DHT synthesis, which is promoted by 5α-red1 and AR during growth phases, while E2 may inhibit growth through ERα.
research Clinical relevance of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone metabolism in women
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone play a role in women's health issues like excess hair and baldness, and treatments blocking these hormones may help.
research The 5alpha-reductase type 1, but not type 2, gene is expressed in anagen hairs plucked from the vertex area of the scalp of hirsute women and normal individuals
The gene SDR5A1 is found in scalp hair of both hirsute and normal individuals, but it does not explain differences in hair growth.
research Establishment of type II 5α-reductase over-expressing cell line as an inhibitor screening model
A reliable model for screening type II 5α-reductase inhibitors was created and validated.
research Physiopathological role of the enzymatic complex 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase in the generation of progesterone and testosterone neuroactive metabolites
The enzymes 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase help create brain-active substances from progesterone and testosterone, which could be used for treatment, but more research is needed to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
research 280 Investigation into the role of HIF-1A stabilisation in hair follicle metabolism
Stabilizing HIF-1A in hair follicles may reduce oxidative stress and promote hair growth by increasing glycolysis.
research Androgen Conjugates: Physiology and Clinical Significance
Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.
research HOXC13 Is Involved in the Regulation of Human Hair Keratin Gene Expression
HOXC13 is crucial for regulating hair keratin genes in hair follicles.
research Ligand‐independent Regulation of the hairless Promoter by Vitamin D Receptor†

research The Antiandrogenic Action of 4–Androsten–3–one–17β– Carboxylic Acid and Its Methyl Ester on Hamster Flank Organ1
The chemicals 17βC and its methyl ester can block the effects of testosterone on hamster skin but not the effects of DHT.
research Profiling steroid and thyroid hormones with hair analysis in a cohort of women aged 25 to 45 years old
The method can measure multiple hormones in women's hair and may help identify hormone-related health issues.
research Is 3α, 17β-androstanediol-glucuronide a diagnostic marker in women with androgenic manifestations?
3α, 17β-androstanediol-glucuronide is not a useful marker for androgen excess but may help monitor certain treatments.
