research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Polymorphisms in Genes Involved in Steroidogenesis in the Development of Severe Acne
Certain gene variations are linked to a higher risk of severe acne, suggesting a genetic influence on the condition.
research EFFECTS OF A LOW‐DOSE DESOGESTREL‐ETHINYLESTRADIOL COMBINATION ON HIRSUTISM, ANDROGENS AND SEX HORMONE BINDING GLOBULIN IN WOMEN WITH A POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME
Low-dose oral contraceptives reduced hair growth and testosterone levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Clinical and Laboratory Characteristics of Individuals Aged ≤17 Years With Homeostatic Iron Regulator (HFE) p.C282Y Homozygosity, a Common Hemochromatosis Genotype
Most children with a common hemochromatosis genotype had elevated iron levels but no severe symptoms.
research The influence of long-term treatment with cyproterone acetate or a cyproterone acetate-ethinyl oestradiol combination on androgen levels in blood of hirsute women
Both treatments reduced androgen levels and hair growth in women with hirsutism.
research Evaluation of Keratinocyte Proliferation and Differentiation in Vitamin D Receptor Knockout Mice*
Alopecia in VDR knockout mice is due to a defect in hair cycle initiation, not keratinocyte issues.
research Antiandrogen therapy in hidradenitis suppurativa: finasteride for females
Finasteride helps reduce hidradenitis suppurativa symptoms in females.
research Becker's nevus associated with chromosomal mosaicism and congenital adrenal hyperplasia
High androgen levels and genetic factors likely cause Becker's nevus and related symptoms.
research The Acute Anticonvulsant Effects of Deoxycorticosterone in Developing Rats: Role of Metabolites and Mineralocorticoid‐receptor Responses
Deoxycorticosterone and its metabolites help prevent seizures by interacting with specific receptors.
research Synthesis and biological evaluation of 3-tetrazolo steroidal analogs: Novel class of 5α-reductase inhibitors
3-tetrazolo steroidal analogs can strongly inhibit the enzyme linked to hair loss.
research URTICA DIOICA EXTRACT DOWNREGULATES THE GENE EXPRESSION OF 5Α-RII IN HACAT CELLS: POSSIBLE IMPLICATIONS AGAINST ANDROGENIC SKIN DISEASES.
Urtica dioica extract may help treat androgenic skin diseases by reducing a specific gene's activity.
research Identification of a Cyclosporine-Specific P450 Hydroxylase Gene through Targeted Cytochrome P450 Complement (CYPome) Disruption in Sebekia benihana
A gene in Sebekia benihana, CYP-sb21, is needed for a specific reaction on the drug Cyclosporine A, which could be important for hair growth without affecting the immune system.
research Activity of steroid 4 and derivatives 4a–4f as inhibitors of the enzyme 5α-reductase 1
Compounds 4, 4b, and 4c effectively inhibit an enzyme linked to testosterone conversion without significant toxicity.
research 17β-Estradiol Enhances Contact Hypersensitivity in a Hair Cycle-Dependent Manner and Retards Thymic Atrophy with Age
17β-Estradiol boosts allergic reactions and slows thymus aging in mice.
research Pharmacophore and Atom Based 3D QSAR Studies on the Novel 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors
The developed model can predict effective 5-alpha-reductase enzyme inhibitors.
research Dihydrotestosteron und die Rolle der 5α-Reduktasehemmer bei der benignen Prostatahyperplasie
A stronger dual 5α-reductase inhibitor could improve treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia by further reducing DHT levels.
research Metabolic and cellular analysis of alopecia in vitamin D receptor knockout mice
Alopecia in these mice is caused by defective hair cycle communication due to missing vitamin D receptor function, not vitamin D levels.
research Novel compound heterozygous cadherin 3 mutations in hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy
Two new mutations in the CDH3 gene cause hair loss and vision problems in a young girl.
research Comparison of Levels of Androgenic Hormones in various Phenotypes of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome in High School Girls aging 14 to 18 Years
Girls with PCOS and menstrual disorders have notably higher androgen hormone levels.
research LB1047 Comparative analysis of cutaneous hormonal profiles in pre-menopausal and post-menopausal women
Skin hormone levels change significantly after menopause.
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 The hairless gene mutated in congenital hair loss disorders encodes a novel nuclear receptor corepressor
The mutated hairless gene causes hair loss by acting as a new type of corepressor affecting thyroid hormone receptors.
