research Guava (Psidium guajava L.) Leaf Extract as Bioactive Substances for Anti-Androgen and Antioxidant Activities
Guava leaf extract may help treat hair loss and protect cells by blocking certain genes and fighting damaging molecules.
research DEFINING THE ROLE OF ABI1 GENE IN PROSTATE CANCER PROGRESSION AND TREATMENT RESISTANCE
The ABI1 gene contributes to prostate cancer progression and treatment resistance.
research Australian Hair and Wool Research Society Cutaneous Biology and Endocrinology Workshop
The workshop highlighted the genetic links and psychological impacts of hair loss and skin disorders.
research Development of polycystic ovary syndrome: involvement of genetic and environmental factors
PCOS is caused by both genetics and environmental factors like diet and obesity.
research Adult polycystic ovary syndrome begins in childhood
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome likely starts in childhood and may be genetic and influenced by early hormone exposure.
research Acne: Hormonal concepts and therapy
Hormones, especially androgens, play a big role in acne, but most acne sufferers don't have a hormone disorder. Hormonal treatments, including birth control pills, can be very effective for women whose acne doesn't improve with regular treatments.
research Role of genetics and sex steroid hormones in male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss: An update of what we now know
Genetics and hormones play a role in male and female hair loss, but more research is needed to fully understand it.
research Acne and Systemic Disease
Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in acne, which can be a symptom of systemic diseases like PCOS and may require targeted treatment.
research Steroidogenesis inhibitors alter but do not eliminate androgen synthesis mechanisms during progression to castration-resistance in LNCaP prostate xenografts
Steroidogenesis inhibitors change but don't stop androgen production in prostate cancer.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research The evolutionary impact of androgen levels on prostate cancer in a multi-scale mathematical model
Low androgen levels might delay prostate cancer but could lead to more aggressive, therapy-resistant cancers.
research Female Androgenetic Alopecia: A Separate Entity
Female and male AGA are different diseases.
research Steroid Sulfatase Deficiency and Androgen Activation Before and After Puberty
In STSD patients, the body compensates for low androgen levels by increasing another enzyme's activity.
research Steroidogenic Isoenzymes in Human Hair and Their Potential Role in Androgenetic Alopecia
Steroidogenic isoenzymes may help improve treatments for common hair loss.
research HSD3B1 Genotypes Conferring Adrenal-Restrictive and Adrenal-Permissive Phenotypes in Prostate Cancer and Beyond
Certain HSD3B1 gene types are linked to worse prostate cancer outcomes and affect treatment response and other health conditions.
research Tissue-Selective Regulation of Androgen-Responsive Genes
The same hormone can affect gene expression differently in various tissues, which could lead to new treatments for conditions like hair loss.
research Androgens in cervical cancer: Their role in epidemiology and biology
Androgens increase cervical cancer risk and affect its development.
research Circulating and intraprostatic sex steroid hormonal profiles in relation to male pattern baldness and chest hair density among men diagnosed with localized prostate cancers
Baldness in men with prostate cancer is linked to higher levels of certain sex hormones, but chest hair density is not.
research 5α-reductase inhibitors
5α-reductase inhibitors help treat disorders caused by DHT and have potential for future therapies.
research Understanding Causes of Hair Loss in Women
The conclusion is that hair loss in women is caused by a mix of hormonal, environmental, and genetic factors, and treatments should target these various causes.
research Paxillin regulates androgen receptor expression associated with granulosa cell focal adhesions
Paxillin may help manage androgen-related disorders like PCOS by stabilizing androgen receptor proteins.
research Possible association between androgenic alopecia and risk of prostate cancer and testicular germ cell tumor: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Baldness, especially at the front, may lower the risk of testicular cancer by 31%, but its link to prostate cancer is unclear.
research Investigational medications in the treatment of alopecia
New treatments for hair loss are being developed using molecular biology.
research Purple corn extract improves benign prostatic hyperplasia by inhibiting 5 alpha-reductase type 2 and inflammation in testosterone propionate-induced rats
Purple corn extract may help reduce prostate enlargement and inflammation.
research Increased Incidence of Telogen Effluvium Following Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy in Patients with Elevated TNF-α Expression: A Prospective Cohort Study
High TNF-α levels may increase hair loss risk after PRP therapy.
research MECHANISM OF ACTION OF AVICENNIA MARINA HEARTWOOD EXTRACT AND AVICEQUINONE C ON HUMAN DERMAL PAPILLA CELLS ISOLATED FROM ANDROGENIC ALOPECIA PATIENTS
Avicennia Marina extract and avicequinone C can reduce hair loss hormone production and increase hair growth factors, suggesting they could be used to treat androgenic alopecia.
research Why are men with premature alopecia at higher risk of benign prostatic hyperplasia? And what about prostate cancer?
Men with early hair loss may have a higher risk of enlarged prostate and possibly prostate cancer due to shared hormonal factors.
research Prostate cancer and androgenic alopecia
The document suggests more research is needed to understand the link between baldness and prostate cancer.
research The Biology of Hair Follicles
Hair follicle biology advancements may lead to better hair growth disorder treatments.
