Aging in hair follicle stem cells leads to hair graying, thinning, and loss.
research Circulating androgen regulation by androgen-catabolizing gut bacteria in male mouse gut
Gut bacteria can lower androgen levels in male mice.
research Membrane androgen receptors may mediate androgen reinforcement
Androgen self-administration might be controlled by membrane receptors, not nuclear ones.
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 Long-term Oral Administration of 5α-reductase Inhibitor Attenuates Erectile Function by Inhibiting Autophagy and Promoting Apoptosis of Smooth Muscle Cells in Corpus Cavernosum of Aged Rats
Long-term use of a certain medication can worsen erectile function in aged rats by damaging penile muscle cells.
research Androgenic Hormone Profile of Adult Women with Acne
Over half of the adult women with acne in the study had higher than normal levels of male hormones, especially DHEA.
research Dihydrotestosterone inhibits hair growth in mice by inhibiting insulin-like growth factor-I production in dermal papillae
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) stops hair growth in mice by lowering a growth factor important for hair.
research Becker's nevus associated with chromosomal mosaicism and congenital adrenal hyperplasia
High androgen levels and genetic factors likely cause Becker's nevus and related symptoms.
research The Effect of 5 -Reductase Inhibitors on Erectile Function
5-alpha-reductase inhibitors may cause a low incidence of erectile dysfunction that decreases over time.
