New compounds were made and tested, with compound 6 showing potential for treating prostate-related diseases.
research Expression of Foxi3 is regulated by ectodysplasin in skin appendage placodes
Foxi3 expression in developing teeth and hair is controlled by the ectodysplasin pathway.
research Acne and hirsuties in teenagers
Acne and increased body hair in teenage girls are normal but severe cases may need hormone evaluation and treatment can prevent diabetes linked to PCO.
research Age-related downregulation of dihydrotestosterone-inactivating enzymes in human scalp sebaceous glands
As people age, certain enzymes in scalp glands decrease, affecting hair health.
research Effects of pre- and post-pubertal dihydrotestosterone treatment on penile length in 5α-reductase type 2 deficiency
Dihydrotestosterone treatment can help penis growth in boys with 5α-reductase deficiency but doesn't fully normalize size after puberty.
research Adherence to topical hydrocortisone 17-butyrate 0.1% in different vehicles in adults with atopic dermatitis
Adults with atopic dermatitis showed similar adherence to different forms of hydrocortisone cream, but actual use varied despite self-reports of near-perfect usage.
research Testosterone metabolite nonessential for androgen effects
The body's change of testosterone into DHT is not necessary for testosterone's muscle and sexual effects.
research Characterization of Rickets Type II Model Rats to Reveal Functions of Vitamin D and Vitamin D Receptor
The research showed that Vitamin D and its receptor are important for healthy bones and normal hair and skin in rats.

Diagnosing and treating PCOS in young people is difficult.
research An unusual circulating steroid profile in a virilized postmenopausal woman
A 68-year-old woman developed male traits due to a tumor in her ovary, which was removed, returning her hormone levels to normal.
research A Teenage Girl with Unexpected Pubertal Changes
The girl's unexpected pubic hair growth led to a diagnosis different from complete androgen insensitivity syndrome.
research Impaired Notch‐MKP ‐1 signalling in hidradenitis suppurativa: an approach to pathogenesis by evidence from translational biology

research Androgen Receptors and Androgen-Dependent Initiation of Protein Synthesis in the Prostate
Prostate cells have proteins that bind to specific hormones, which can increase protein production when activated by these hormones.
research Minoxidil increases 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and 5α-reductase activity of cultured human dermal papilla cells from balding scalp
Minoxidil boosts enzymes that help hair growth.
research Prevalence of CYP21 mutations and IRS1 variant among women with polycystic ovary syndrome and adrenal androgen excess
Some women with PCOS have CYP21 mutations and IRS1 variants, but these genetic factors are not major contributors to PCOS.
