research Relative binding affinity of novel steroids to androgen receptors in hamster prostate
New steroids were effective in blocking male hormone receptors in hamster prostates.
research A randomized phase II trial on the addition of dutasteride to combined androgen blockade therapy versus combined androgen blockade therapy alone in patients with advanced or metastatic salivary duct carcinoma – the DUCT study protocol
Adding dutasteride to therapy may improve treatment for advanced salivary duct cancer.
research Protective trend of anti-androgen therapy during the COVID-19 pandemic: A meta-analysis
Anti-androgen therapy might help protect against COVID-19 infection and reduce death risk.
research Cardiac and Renal SARS-CoV-2 Viral Entry Protein Regulation by Androgens and Diet: Implications for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and COVID-19
Androgens and a high-fat diet may increase the risk of severe COVID-19 in women with PCOS by upregulating certain proteins in the heart and kidneys.
research Anti-Alopecia Activity of Coumarin Derivatives Isolated from Merremia peltata Leaves and Computational Study of Their Binding to Androgen Receptors Using Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamic Simulation
Scopolin and scopoletin from Merremia peltata leaves may help treat hair loss and showed promising results in rabbit tests.
research Moxibustion improves ovarian function based on the regulation of the androgen balance
Moxibustion may help improve ovarian function by changing androgen levels.
research Modulation of the canonical Wnt activity by androgen signaling in prostate epithelial basal stem cells
Androgen signaling reduces Wnt activity, affecting prostate stem cell growth.
research Androgen-associated and androgen-independent causes of alopecia and acne in women. Literature review
The document concludes that hair loss and acne in women can be due to both androgen-related and unrelated causes, requiring a collaborative treatment approach.
research Identification of two additional novel mutations in the AR gene associated with severe forms of androgen insensitivity syndrome
Two new mutations in the AR gene linked to severe androgen insensitivity were found.
research Disruptors of Androgen Action and Synthesis
Certain pesticides and fungicides can interfere with male hormone functions, potentially causing reproductive issues in male rats.
research 0885 The androgen-THY1 axis mediates sexual dimorphism in dermal adipogenesis and fibrosis
Androgens reduce THY1 in skin cells, leading to less fat, more fibrosis, and worse healing in males.
research Early androgen activity after birth determines the hypothalamic expression of androgen and estrogen receptors in adulthood in female but not in male rats
Early androgen exposure affects hormone receptor expression in adult female rats' brains, but not in males.
research Impacts of Age and Androgen Level on Albino Rat Meibomian Gland: Light & Electron Microscopic study
Age and androgen levels significantly affect meibomian gland structure and function.
research Systemic testosterone induces structural, immunological, and sex steroid receptor changes in human XX skin
Testosterone makes XX skin more like male skin by changing its structure and cell makeup.
research Minoxidil May be a Partial Agonist of Estrogen Receptor Alpha
Minoxidil might partially activate estrogen receptors, affecting hair growth.
research Cross-kingdom delivery and putative gene modulation of androgen pathways by plant-derived exosome-like nanoparticles from polygoni multiflori radix promotes hair growth via miRNA cargo
Plant-derived nanoparticles from Polygoni Multiflori Radix promote hair growth better than Minoxidil by affecting androgen pathways.
research Dietary Phytochemicals and their Impact on Androgen Disorders in Males
Dietary phytochemicals may help improve male hormonal health.
research Supraphysiological Dose of Testosterone Impairs the Expression and Distribution of Sex Steroid Receptors during Endometrial Receptivity Development in Female Sprague–Dawley Rats
High doses of testosterone disrupt hormone levels and receptor expression in the uterus, affecting fertility.
research Androgen excess: a hallmark of polycystic ovary syndrome
Excess androgens may cause PCOS, not just be a symptom.
research An adolescent girl presenting with primary amenorrhea: A case report of complete androgen insensitivity syndrome
A 15-year-old girl with no menstrual period was diagnosed with a genetic condition that makes her body unable to respond to male hormones, leading to female characteristics despite having male genetic makeup.
research Novel progestogenic androgens for male contraception: design, synthesis, and activity of C7 α-substituted testosterone
New testosterone analogs show promise for male contraception with better activity and potentially fewer side effects.
research 892 Behavior of the two circulating androgens testosterone and DHEA and their main intracellular metabolites in an androgen-sensitive sebocyte cell line
Testosterone affects androgen receptors and lipid storage in cells, while DHEA does not convert to testosterone or affect these receptors in the same way.
research Androgen effects on the skin
Androgens like testosterone affect skin health and can lead to conditions such as acne and hair loss, with various treatments available.
research Kennedy's disease and partial androgen insensitivity syndrome. Report of 4 cases and literature review
The conclusion is that adult males with muscle weakness and hormonal imbalances should be tested for Kennedy's disease.
research Androgen Signaling in Sertoli Cells
Androgens regulate Sertoli cells and affect fertility through specific receptors and coregulators.
research Targeting receptor–regulator interactions
New treatments for cancer and skin disorders show promise in disrupting harmful cell interactions and promoting hair growth.
research Modelling androgen synthesis and action during human sexual differentiation
Male sexual differentiation is regulated independently, while female differentiation occurs in an androgenic environment, affecting conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Eziopatogenesi e terapia dell'acne:studio epidemiologico delle caratteristiche cliniche di una popolazione di pazienti affetti da acne e analisi dei polimorfismi del gene codificante per il recettore degli androgeni e del gene codificante per il citocromo P-450 1A1
Hereditary factors affect acne duration, not severity, and late-onset acne in females has different causes.
research Genetic analysis of the role of androgen metabolism in the pathogenesis of prostate cancer
