research Androgen receptor gene polymorphisms and risk for androgenetic alopecia: a meta-analysis
G allele of AR Stul polymorphism linked to higher hair loss risk, especially in white people.
research Influence of estrogens on the androgen metabolism in different subunits of human hair follicles.
Estrogens can reduce DHT production in hair follicles, but are less effective than finasteride and progesterone.
research Androgens and Antiandrogens
Male hormones, or androgens, affect women's health in areas like mood and bone density, and hormone replacement therapy using antiandrogenic progestogens can improve mood disorders and alertness in menopausal women.
research The role of androgens in COVID-19
Higher androgen levels might make COVID-19 worse, especially in men.
research No Evidence that 2D:4D is Related to the Number of CAG Repeats in the Androgen Receptor Gene
Finger length ratios are not linked to the number of specific gene repeats affecting testosterone sensitivity.
research Expression of androgen receptors in skin appendage tumors: An immunohistochemical study
Androgen receptors are found in some skin tumors but not in hair follicle tumors.
research Androgens Affect the Activity of Human Sebocytes in Culture in a Manner Dependent on the Localization of the Sebaceous Glands and Their Effect Is Antagonized by Spironolactone
Male hormones affect oil-producing skin cells differently based on their body location, and the drug spironolactone can reduce these effects.
research Androgen modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in androgenetic alopecia
Androgens may block hair growth signals, targeting this could treat hair loss.
research Effects of androgen deprivation on chronic bacterial prostatitis in a rat model
Finasteride and levofloxacin effectively reduce chronic bacterial prostatitis severity.
research Nonsteroidal tissue selective androgen receptor modulators: a promising class of clinical candidates
Selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs) are a promising type of drug for various health conditions due to their targeted actions.
research Circulating androgen regulation by androgen-catabolizing gut bacteria in male mouse gut
Gut bacteria can lower androgen levels in male mice.
research Body composition changes and inhibition of fat development in vivo implicates androgen in regulation of stem cell lineage allocation
Androgen is important in controlling stem cell differentiation, reducing fat development, and increasing lean mass.
research Evaluation of the rodent Hershberger assay using three reference endocrine disrupters (androgen and antiandrogens)
The assay effectively detects hormonal activity of certain chemicals.
research Membrane androgen receptors may mediate androgen reinforcement
Androgen self-administration might be controlled by membrane receptors, not nuclear ones.
research Shorter CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene may enhance hyperandrogenicity in polycystic ovary syndrome
Shorter CAG repeats in a specific gene may increase male hormone activity and symptoms like acne and excess hair in women with PCOS.
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 Immunohistochemical Evaluation of Androgen Receptor and Nerve Structure Density in Human Prepuce from Patients with Persistent Sexual Side Effects after Finasteride Use for Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride, a hair loss drug, may cause long-term sexual side effects due to changes in hormone receptor levels.
research Identification of Anabolic Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators with Reduced Activities in Reproductive Tissues and Sebaceous Glands
Two new compounds were found to build bone and muscle without affecting reproductive organs and skin oil glands.
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 Deprivation Therapy in Prostate Cancer: Focusing on Sexual Side Effects
Androgen Deprivation Therapy for prostate cancer often reduces sexual function but intermittent therapy may be more tolerable.
research Intracrine and Myotrophic Roles of 5α-Reductase and Androgens
Muscles can make their own androgens, which may help muscle growth.
research 7 Regulation of androgen receptor and 5α-reductase in the skin of normal and hirsute women
The exact cause of increased 5α-reductase activity leading to hirsutism in women is still unknown.
research Androgens in women
Hormone treatments can help with women's skin and hair disorders, but they need careful monitoring and more research.
research Androgen Receptor Gene Polymorphism and Prostate Zonal Volumes in Australian and Chinese Men
CAG repeat polymorphism and prostate zone volume are not reliable markers of long-term androgen sensitivity.
research Hormones and Hair Growth: Variations in Androgen Receptor Content of Dermal papilla Cells Cultured from Human and Red Deer (Cervus Elaphus) Hair Follicles.
Human hair growth is influenced by androgen hormones, and red deer mane follicles have similar hormone receptors.
research The Effects of Androgens on T Cells: Clues to Female Predominance in Autoimmune Liver Diseases?
Androgens may influence T cells, contributing to higher autoimmune liver disease risk in women.
research In vitro bioassays for androgens and their diagnostic applications
