research Adipose-Derived Stem Cells and Their Secretory Factors for Skin Aging and Hair Loss
Fat-derived stem cells and their secretions show promise for treating skin aging and hair loss.
research Androgenetic alopecia: Update on etiology
AGA, a common hair loss, is caused by genetics, hormones, age, and environmental factors.
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 Acne
Hormonal treatments can help with acne, especially in women, by lowering androgen levels or blocking their effects.
research Potential targets in the discovery of new hair growth promoters for androgenic alopecia
The document concludes that targeting 5α-reductase, the androgen receptor, and hair growth genes, along with using compounds with anti-androgenic properties, could lead to more effective hair loss treatments.
research Effect of 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and Testosterone on Apoptosis in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.
research The Biology of Hair Growth
Hair growth is influenced by hormones and goes through different phases; androgens can both promote and inhibit hair growth depending on the body area.
research Treatment of Hair Loss
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair loss, but continued research is needed for better treatments.
research Hormonal regulation of hair follicles exhibits a biological paradox
Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.
research Inhibition of skin 5α-reductase by oral contraceptive progestinsin vitro
Norgestimate is the most effective birth control progestin for reducing an enzyme linked to acne and excessive hair growth in women.
research Updated Treatment for Acne: Targeted Therapy Based on Pathogenesis
Future acne treatments should aggressively target inflammation to prevent scarring.
research Potential adverse effects of long-term testosterone therapy
Long-term testosterone therapy can cause hormone suppression, affect prostate and heart health, and alter physical characteristics, but does not increase prostate cancer risk and needs more research for full risk assessment.
research Physiology of the Hypothalamic Pituitary Gonadal Axis in the Male
The document explains how the male reproductive system works, its role in making testosterone, and how conditions like obesity can disrupt it, leading to low testosterone and fertility issues.
research Androgenic Effects on Ventricular Repolarization
ADT, especially enzalutamide, may increase the risk of heart rhythm problems and sudden death in men.
research The Role of Oral Contraceptives in the Treatment of Hyperandrogenic Disorders
Oral contraceptives help treat hyperandrogenic disorders, improving symptoms like excessive hair and acne.
research Promotion of Hair Growth byRosmarinus officinalisLeaf Extract
Rosemary leaf extract may be an effective natural treatment for hair growth and male pattern baldness.
research Redefining hormone resistance in prostate cancer
The conclusion suggests that prostate cancer should be classified by castration status and that new therapies targeting androgen receptor signaling show promise.
research Mechanisms of Action of Dehydroepiandrosterone
DHEA affects various tissues by interacting with multiple receptors and can be converted into sex hormones.
research Androgens induce sebaceous differentiation in sebocyte cells expressing a stable functional androgen receptor
Androgens cause oil-producing skin cells with androgen receptors to mature and produce more oil.
research A hypothetical pathogenesis model for androgenic alopecia: clarifying the dihydrotestosterone paradox and rate-limiting recovery factors
The model suggests that scalp tension could lead to hair loss, with factors like blood vessel hardening, enlarged oil glands, and poor microcirculation also playing a role. It also hints at a possible link between skull shape and baldness pattern.
research Relationship between betacoronaviruses and the endocrine system: a new key to understand the COVID-19 pandemic—A comprehensive review
Betacoronaviruses, like COVID-19, may cause hormone system dysfunction and affect disease susceptibility and severity.
research Management of Androgenetic Alopecia
Treatments for common hair loss include minoxidil, finasteride, and hair transplantation.
research Is COVID-19 a risk factor for progression of benign prostatic hyperplasia and exacerbation of its related symptoms?: a systematic review
COVID-19 might worsen symptoms and progression of benign prostatic hyperplasia, possibly due to inflammation and metabolic disturbances in the prostate gland. More research is needed to confirm this.
research Testosterone target therapy: focus on immune response, controversies and clinical implications in patients with COVID-19 infection
Testosterone may have a dual role in COVID-19, potentially worsening outcomes in men, and testosterone therapy could help some patients, but more research is needed.
research Hormonal therapy in female pattern hair loss
Hormonal therapies help treat female hair loss, but results are slow and vary.
research Is androgenic alopecia a result of endocrine effects on the vasculature?
Male-pattern baldness might be caused by the effect of hormones on scalp blood vessels.
research Sexual Problems of Men With Androgenic Alopecia Treated With 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors
Men using hair loss drugs like finasteride may experience sexual side effects like erectile dysfunction, but it's unclear who will be affected and when. Treating depression and sexual symptoms is suggested, as these men often have higher rates of both. More research is needed to understand why these side effects occur.
research COVID-19 pandemic: what about the gonads?
COVID-19 may affect male fertility and women might have better outcomes due to hormonal and immune differences.
research Silencing the androgen receptor: New skills for antiandrogen oligonucleotide skin and hair therapy
Targeting androgen receptors with antiandrogen oligonucleotides could effectively treat hair loss.
