research Periaortic venous necklace and renal right double arteries; Case report
The study found a unique vein pattern around the aorta and two arteries in the right kidney.
research The Role of PGC-1α in Aging Skin Barrier Function
PGC-1α may improve aging skin by boosting mitochondrial function and reducing inflammation.
research Analyzing the role of ACE2, AR, MX1 and TMPRSS2 genetic markers for COVID-19 severity
MX1 and AR genes are linked to milder COVID-19, while TMPRSS2 increases severe risk, especially in women.
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 Steroid 5α-reductases and 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases: key enzymes in androgen metabolism
Key enzymes control androgen levels, affecting hormone activity and potential treatments.
research Androgen metabolism in hirsute patients treated with cyproterone acetate
Cyproterone acetate effectively reduced hair growth in hirsute patients by lowering androgen levels and altering androgen metabolism.
research Overexpression of aldo-keto reductase 1C3 (AKR1C3) in LNCaP cells diverts androgen metabolism towards testosterone resulting in resistance to the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride
Too much AKR1C3 enzyme causes resistance to finasteride by increasing testosterone.
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 THE EFFECT OF SPIRONOLACTONE ON HIRSUTISM AND FEMALE ANDROGEN METABOLISM
Spironolactone may help reduce hair growth and testosterone levels in some women with hirsutism.
research Studies of androgen metabolism and action in cultured hair and skin cells
Androgens don't directly affect hair cell growth or protein production.

Treatment during development affects hormone balance and sexual behavior in male rats.
research Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: A Disorder of Androgen Metabolism in the Male
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia may be caused by changes in how the body processes male hormones.
research Is the metabolism of testosterone to 5α-dihydrotestosterone required for androgen action in the skin?
Testosterone conversion to 5α-DHT may not be essential for its effects on the skin.
