Research
810-840 / 1000+ results research A comprehensive investigation into the molecular mechanism responsible for selective androgen receptor (SARM) tissue-selectivity
SARMs work differently in tissues due to unique interactions and structures.
research The clinical applications of five-alpha reductase inhibitors.
Five-alpha reductase inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, can treat enlarged prostates, improve urination, reduce need for prostate surgery, and lower the risk of prostate cancer, but may increase the risk of higher grade prostate cancer. They can also treat male pattern baldness.

Mutations in iRhom2 affect hair and skin in mice and are linked to esophageal cancer, with ADAM17 playing a crucial role.
research Miscellaneous Steroids
The document concludes that scientists created various steroids with different properties, including a more effective semi-synthetic vitamin D.
research Novel Synthetic Steroid Derivatives: Target Prediction and Biological Evaluation of Antiandrogenic Activity
New steroid compounds may help with hormonal therapy and have potential benefits for glucose disorders, but more research is needed.
research MALE PSEUDOHERMAPHRODITISM DUE TO 17β-HYDROXYSTEROID DEHYDROGENASE DEFICIENCY: STUDIES ON THE NATURAL HISTORY OF THE DEFECT AND EFFECT OF ANDROGENS ON GENDER ROLE
Masculinization in affected individuals occurs gradually after puberty due to hormone changes.
research Pharmacological Inhibition of DGAT1 Induces Sebaceous Gland Atrophy in Mouse and Dog Skin While Overt Alopecia Is Restricted to the Mouse
Blocking DGAT1 reduces oil gland size in mice and dogs, but only mice experience hair loss.

research Androgenetic alopecia
research Fully automated chip-based nanoelectrospray ionization-mass spectrometry as an effective tool for rapid and high-throughput screening of 5α-reductase inhibitors
research Cloning of a Functional Vitamin D Receptor from the Lamprey (Petromyzon marinus), an Ancient Vertebrate Lacking a Calcified Skeleton and Teeth
Lampreys have a functional vitamin D receptor that may help detoxify harmful substances.
research Gene expression of type 2 17β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in scalp hairs of hirsute women
Hirsute women have lower type 2 17β-HSD enzyme levels, which improve with treatment.
research Dutasteride/finasteride
Finasteride and dutasteride may cause macular abnormalities.
research Comparative Efficacy of Oral and Topical 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors in Reducing Dihydrotestosterone levels across Men with Androgenetic Alopecia: A Network Meta-Analysis incorporating Post-Hoc Analyses of Randomized Clinical Trial Data
Oral and topical 5-alpha reductase inhibitors affect DHT levels and hair density differently in treating hair loss.
research Correction to ‘Retinoic acid drives hair follicle stem cell activation via Wnt/β‐catenin signalling in androgenetic alopecia’
The correction does not change the study's main findings.
research UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS-based Metabolomics and In Silico Studies on 5-α-Reductase, JAK1, JAK2, and JAK3 of Albizia saponaria L.: Application to Alopecia
Albizia saponaria bark extract may help treat hair loss.

research Bioactive metabolites of edible mushrooms efficacious against androgenic alopecia: Targeting SRD5A2 using computational approach
Certain compounds found in edible mushrooms may help treat hair loss.
research Prostaglandin D2 Uses Components of ROS Signaling to Enhance Testosterone Production in Keratinocytes
Prostaglandin D2 increases testosterone production in skin cells through a process involving reactive oxygen species, and antioxidants may help treat hair loss.
research Mapping Metabolism: Monitoring Lactate Dehydrogenase Activity Directly in Tissue
The document concludes that the technique allows for the detection of LDH activity in various tissues, showing where cells are actively metabolizing glucose.
