research Dermatological history and examination
A thorough history and examination are crucial for diagnosing skin diseases, which affect up to a third of people. This includes details about skin lesions, medication, general health, lifestyle, family, and contacts, as well as examining the rash, hair, nails, and mucous membranes. Changes in hair and nails can also indicate other medical and skin disorders.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome [PCOS]: Comprehensive management in primary care
Primary care is key in managing PCOS, focusing on lifestyle changes and medications like birth control and metformin.
research The pediatric origins of polycystic ovary syndrome
Early signs of PCOS in girls, like irregular periods and polycystic ovaries, suggest a need for early diagnosis and intervention to prevent further health issues.
research PHARMACOLOGICAL BASIS FOR CLINICAL USE OF ANTIANDROGENS
Cyproterone acetate is used to treat conditions like prostate cancer, early puberty, excessive sexual drive, and female androgenization by affecting androgen functions and suppressing certain hormones.
research Identification of Key Genes and Signaling Pathways in Male Androgenetic Alopecia by Bioinformatics Analysis
Found key genes affecting hair loss, immune response, and skin development; more research needed for better treatments.
research Trichoscopic findings in androgenetic alopecia and their clinical correlation
Trichoscopy helps diagnose and monitor hair loss, showing different signs at various stages of hair thinning.
research Current and Future Medical Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
Treatments for hair loss vary, but cell-based options may be the future.

Men with severe hair loss may have poorer sperm quality.
research Early-onset androgenetic alopecia and endocrine disruptors
Endocrine disruptors may cause early hair loss.
research Myocyte Androgen Receptor Modulates Body Composition and Metabolic Parameters
Activating androgen receptors in muscle can increase muscle mass and reduce fat.
research Metabolic Engineering of Microorganisms to Produce L-Aspartate and Its Derivatives
Scientists can use engineered microbes to make L-aspartate and related chemicals, but there's still room to improve their efficiency.
research Ornithine decarboxylase is upregulated by the androgen receptor in skeletal muscle and regulates myoblast proliferation
Androgens increase muscle mass by promoting myoblast growth through ornithine decarboxylase.
research The role of Janus kinase inhibitors in the treatment of alopecia areata: A systematic review
Janus kinase inhibitors show promise for treating alopecia areata but need more research for confirmation.
research Ovarian sex steroid receptors and sex hormones in androgenized rats
High doses of nandrolone decanoate disrupt ovarian hormones and receptors in rats, with recovery only at lower doses and longer recovery times.
research The Rise in Adrenal Androgen Biosynthesis: Adrenarche
Adrenarche increases adrenal androgens around age 6, affecting hair growth and development.
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 Androgen Metabolism in Androgenetic Alopecia
research The vitamin B5/coenzyme A axis: A target for immunomodulation?
Vitamin B5 and coenzyme A may help regulate the immune system and could improve treatments for chronic diseases and cancer.
research Cutaneous Androgen Metabolism: Basic Research and Clinical Perspectives
Creating stronger blockers for skin enzymes might lead to better treatment for conditions like acne and excessive hair growth.
research Therapeutic Strategies to Target the Androgen Receptor
Therapies targeting the androgen receptor are being developed to treat prostate cancer and improve bone and muscle health.
research Intracrine androgen biosynthesis, metabolism and action revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
research Allosteric interactions prime androgen receptor dimerization and activation
Certain interactions help prepare the androgen receptor for pairing and activation, which is important for its role in development and disease.
research Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of the human androgen receptor ligand-binding domain with a coactivator-like peptide and selective androgen receptor modulators
Scientists successfully created and analyzed the structure of a part of the human androgen receptor with specific modulators and a peptide to understand how it binds differently in various tissues.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Real-time iTRAQ-based proteome profiling revealed the central metabolism involved in nitrogen starvation induced lipid accumulation in microalgae
Nitrogen starvation in microalgae increases lipid production, making it a potential biofuel source.
research Basics of androgen synthesis and action
Androgens like testosterone are important hormones for both men and women, made differently in each sex and affecting the body by regulating genes and quick interactions with cell components.
research Androgen regulations of cellular events involve in bone perfusion
research METABOLISM AND ACTION OF ANDROGEN IN THE SKIN
Androgens affect skin conditions like acne and hair loss through specific biochemical pathways.
research Antihormonal properties of some new A-homo-B, 19-dinor steroids of the androstane series
New A-homo-B, 19-dinor steroids showed strong antiandrogenic activity without affecting the enzyme 5α-reductase or androgen receptor binding.
