research Androgenetic alopecia: pathogenesis and potential for therapy
Hair loss needs more research for better treatments.
research Testosterone, cytochrome P450, and cardiac hypertrophy
Heart-specific steroid metabolism is crucial in cardiac hypertrophy.
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 Sex differences in SARS-CoV-2 infection rates and the potential link to prostate cancer
Men, especially older ones with health issues like prostate cancer, may have worse COVID-19 outcomes and could benefit from therapies targeting male hormones.
research Male-pattern baldness susceptibility locus at 20p11
Researchers found a new gene area linked to male-pattern baldness, which, along with another gene, significantly increases the risk of hair loss in men.
research Mixture effects of endocrine disrupting compounds in vitro
Weak endocrine disruptors in mixtures can have significant effects and should be considered in risk assessments.
research Hormonal Effects on Hair Follicles
Hormones like testosterone and estrogen significantly affect hair growth and structure.
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 Hormones and the pilosebaceous unit
Hormones significantly affect hair and oil gland function in the skin, and more research is needed on skin-related hormone disorders.
research Endocrine control of benign prostatic hyperplasia
Hormones and metabolism play a complex role in prostate enlargement, and more research is needed to improve diagnosis and treatment.
research Are the cutaneous manifestations during or due to SARS-CoV-2 infection/COVID-19 frequent or not? Revision of possible pathophysiologic mechanisms
Skin problems in COVID-19 patients are rare and may be due to the body's complex immune response or blood clotting issues.
research Acne
Hormonal treatments can help with acne, especially in women, by lowering androgen levels or blocking their effects.
research Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research Anabolic androgenic steroids and carcinogenicity focusing on Leydig cell: a literature review
Anabolic androgenic steroids can increase cancer risk and disrupt hormones.
research New Therapeutic Approach to the Hirsute Patient
Spironolactone can reduce hair growth in women with hirsutism.
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 Use of high dose cyproterone acetate and risk of intracranial meningioma in women: cohort study
High doses of cyproterone acetate increase the risk of brain tumors in women, but the risk decreases after stopping the medication.
research Epitestosterone
Epitestosterone may counteract testosterone's effects and has roles in body processes like prostate growth and hair distribution.
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 Dihydrotestosterone Stimulates 5a-Reductase Activity in Pubic Skin Fibroblasts*
Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
research Antiandrogenic Therapy With Finasteride Attenuates Cardiac Hypertrophy and Left Ventricular Dysfunction
Finasteride helps reduce heart issues and improves heart function.
research Matriptase activation and shedding with HAI-1 is induced by steroid sex hormones in human prostate cancer cells, but not in breast cancer cells
Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.
research Cellular actions of testosterone in vascular cells: Mechanism independent of aromatization to estradiol
Testosterone affects vascular cells directly without converting to estradiol.
research Differential Expression of miR-93 and miR-21 in Granulosa Cells and Follicular Fluid of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Associating with Different Phenotypes
The study found that certain microRNAs are higher in the cells and lower in the fluid of women with a specific type of polycystic ovary syndrome, and one microRNA could potentially help diagnose the condition.
research Characteristics of Androgenetic Alopecia in Asian
Asian hair loss differs from Europeans; consider individual needs and psychological well-being for treatment.
research Susceptibility variants on chromosome 7p21.1 suggest HDAC9 as a new candidate gene for male-pattern baldness
A gene called HDAC9 might be a new factor in male-pattern baldness.
research Clinical biochemistry of dihydrotestosterone
Understanding how DHT works is important for diagnosing and treating hormone-related disorders.
research Effects of aromatase inhibitors on human osteoblast and osteoblast-like cells: A possible androgenic bone protective effects induced by exemestane
Exemestane may protect bones by stimulating osteoblast growth through androgen-related pathways.
research The genetics of androgenetic alopecia
Genes and hormones cause hair loss, with four genes contributing equally.
