900-930 / 1000+ resultsresearch Inhibition of 5α-Reductase Activity in SZ95 Sebocytes and HaCaT Keratinocytes In Vitro
The substance MK386 effectively blocked testosterone conversion and reduced cell growth in certain skin cells, but inhibiting 5α-reductase alone may not greatly improve acne.
research Cell-Free Therapies: The Use of Cell Extracts to Mitigate Irradiation-Injured Salivary Glands
Cell extracts may effectively and safely repair radiation-damaged salivary glands.
research Crystal Structure and Synthesis of 17α-Acetoxy-pregn-4,6-diene-3,20-dione
The compound was successfully made and shows potential for treating prostate cancer.
research A quantitative ultra-performance liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis of steroids from human scalp hair
The method can measure multiple steroids in human hair to study long-term steroid metabolism, especially in newborns and children.
research Comparative Study on the Efficacy of Intralesional Minoxidil Injection Alone and in Combination versus the Standard Intralesional Corticosteroid Injection in the Treatment of Alopecia Areata
Standard intralesional corticosteroids are the best treatment for patchy alopecia areata.
research Subjects with mild alopecia benefit from aminexil clinical 5: results of a large international observational study
Aminexil clinical 5 effectively reduces hair loss and is well-tolerated.
research Why steroids may not always work in alopecia areata: elevated unoccupied glucocorticoid receptors and decreased levels of thioredoxin
Steroids may not work well for alopecia areata because of high unoccupied receptors and low thioredoxin levels.
research Androgenic Alopecia
The document concludes that treating female hair loss should target reducing excess androgen and blocking its effects on hair follicles, with the best treatments being hormonal therapy, adrenal suppression, and topical minoxidil.
research LB1047 Comparative analysis of cutaneous hormonal profiles in pre-menopausal and post-menopausal women
Skin hormone levels change significantly after menopause.
research Recommendations for treatment of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (NCCAH): An update
The document suggests treating individuals with nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia who show symptoms, especially those related to excess male hormones.
research Adenosine as an Active Ingredient in Topical Preparations Against Hair Loss: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Published Clinical Trials
Adenosine may help with hair loss, but more research is needed.
research New Synthesis of Methyl 3β-Hydroxy-5-androstene-17β-carboxylate
A new method was developed to make a compound used in finasteride and epristeride with a 69% yield.
research Novel aldo-keto reductase 1C3 inhibitor affects androgen metabolism but not ovarian function in healthy women: a phase 1 study
The inhibitor affects androgen metabolism but not ovarian function.
research Use of adapalene in alopecia areata: Efficacy and safety of mometasone furoate 0.1% cream versus combination of mometasone furoate 0.1% cream and adapalene 0.1% gel in alopecia areata
Combining mometasone furoate cream with adapalene gel is safer and more effective for hair regrowth in alopecia areata than using the cream alone.
research A systematic review of pulse steroid therapy for alopecia areata
Pulse steroid therapy for alopecia areata shows a 43% complete response rate but has a high relapse rate, especially in children.
research Progesterone regulates corticosterone elevation and alterations in spatial memory and exploratory behavior induced by stress in Wistar rats
Progesterone helps protect against stress-related memory and behavior issues in rats.
research Assessment of the Chemical Profile and Potential Medical Effects of a Flavonoid-Rich Extract of Eclipta prostrata L. Collected in the Central Highlands of Vietnam
Eclipta prostrata extract may help with memory and diabetes due to its antioxidant and enzyme-inhibiting properties.
research Steroidogenesis inhibitors alter but do not eliminate androgen synthesis mechanisms during progression to castration-resistance in LNCaP prostate xenografts
Steroidogenesis inhibitors change but don't stop androgen production in prostate cancer.
research Florid Cushing's Syndrome and Hirsutism Induced by Desoximetasone
Topical corticosteroids can cause serious side effects like Cushing's syndrome and hirsutism.
research An Elevated Tumor Marker and Adrenarche in a Child Using Lavender Oil
Lavender oil use in a child may be linked to early puberty signs and elevated tumor marker levels.
research Greater conversion of testosterone to 5α-dihydrotestosterone, reflecting increased peripheral 5α-reductase activity in nude mice treated with high doses of cyclosporine A
High doses of cyclosporine A increase testosterone conversion, possibly boosting hair growth.
research Nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia is a genetic disorder causing hormone imbalances, affecting fertility and requiring personalized treatment.
research In vitro and In vivo Effects of 17β-N-(4-phenylcarbamoyl) androst-4-en-3- one Derivatives as 5a-reductase Inhibitors on Androgen-dependent Glands
Three compounds were found to inhibit a prostate disease-related enzyme and reduce prostate size more effectively than the current treatment, suggesting they could be used for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research 161 Botanical extract effectiveness on overall well-being and well-aging. An in-vivo study
Botanical extract improved well-being and skin health in a test group compared to a placebo.
research Factors predicting response to oral methylprednisolone tapering treatment in alopecia areata: A retrospective study
Younger patients and those with more hair loss are less likely to benefit from oral steroid treatment for hair loss, and low vitamin D may predict relapse.
research Measurement of steroid hormones by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry with small amounts of hair
A new method accurately measures steroid hormones in a few hair strands and could help study chronic stress and hair loss.
research Patent Evaluation: Δ-4,6-Steroids as Potent 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New steroids were patented as effective for treating acne, hair loss, and other conditions related to hormones.
research The use of hair cortisol for the assessment of stress in animals
Hair cortisol is a reliable way to measure long-term stress in animals.
