research Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (17β -HSD3, 17β-HSD5, and 3α-HSD3) Inhibitors:Extragonadal Regulation of Intracellular Sex Steroid Hormone Levels
Certain inhibitors can potentially treat prostate cancer and other hormone-dependent conditions by controlling sex hormone levels in cells.
research Development and evaluation of animal models for sex steroid deficient dry eye
The animal models successfully simulated dry eye related to sex steroid deficiency.
research Progressive expression of PPARGC1α is associated with hair miniaturization in androgenetic alopecia
Increased PPARGC1α relates to hair thinning in common baldness.
research Inflammation in androgenetic alopecia and hair loss: linking neurosciences-endocrinology-dermatology
Hair loss in men may be caused by inflammation triggered by hormones, and treatments reducing inflammation could potentially promote hair growth.
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 Spironolactone Therapy for Hirsutism in a Hyperandrogenic Woman
Spironolactone may help reduce excessive hair growth in women with high male hormone levels.
research Synthesis and Study of Some 17a-aza-D-homo Steroids as 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
The research found that compound 6, a newly created steroid, is more effective at inhibiting 5α-reductase (an enzyme) than current treatments, suggesting it could be a better option for treating urinary tract symptoms in men.
research Aldosterone- and cortisol-cosecreting adrenal adenoma, ovarian hyperthecosis and breast cancer
The conclusion is that thorough investigation of hypertension and hormonal dysfunctions is important, and there may be a link between these conditions and cancer.
research Management of Hirsutism and Acne in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Narrative Review of Current Evidence and Emerging Therapies
Treating hirsutism and acne in women with PCOS needs a personalized approach using oral contraceptives, antiandrogens, and sometimes metformin.
research Diffuser Haarausfall und klinische Endokrinologie: Neue Erkenntnisse
Hormones significantly affect hair growth and loss, with potential for new treatments.
research Lack of Significant Association between Sex Hormone Concentrations and Atopic Dermatitis in Adolescents and Adults in Two Population-Based Studies
Sex hormones likely don't affect atopic dermatitis in adolescents and adults.
research Cardiac and brainstem neuroinflammatory pathways account for androgenic incitement of cardiovascular and autonomic manifestations in endotoxic male rats
Testosterone plays a big role in heart and nervous system damage caused by inflammation in male rats, suggesting that blocking testosterone production could help manage this condition.
research [Long-term treatment of virilized women with cyproterone acetate (author's transl)].
Cyproterone acetate effectively treats virilized women, especially under 35, despite some side effects.
research Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency epidemiology, etiopathogenesis, clinical presentation, treatment – a systematic review
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency is a complex autosomal recessive disorder affecting adrenal steroidogenesis, leading to cortisol and aldosterone deficiency and excess adrenal androgens. This systematic review highlights the disorder's broad clinical spectrum, necessitating a multidisciplinary approach for diagnosis and treatment. Universal newborn screening using 17OHP measurement has reduced mortality from adrenal crises, especially in boys. Current treatments with hydrocortisone and fludrocortisone are effective but imperfect, as they do not mimic the natural circadian rhythm of cortisol and carry long-term risks. Future therapeutic options, such as CRF receptor antagonists, ACTH secretion inhibitors, and gene therapy, are promising but not yet standard practice.
research Role of vitamin D and insulin resistance in polycystic ovary syndrome
Vitamin D helps improve PCOS by aiding insulin function and ovarian health.
research Emerging medication for the treatment of male hypogonadism
New treatments for male hypogonadism are effective and should be personalized.
research Anti-Acne Agents Attenuate FGFR2 Signal Transduction in Acne
Anti-acne medications may work by reducing the activity of a protein involved in acne development.
research Female Androgenetic Alopecia: An Update on Diagnosis and Management
FAGA diagnosis uses blood tests and trichoscopy, with treatments like topical minoxidil, oral anti-androgens, and hormone-modulating drugs.
research Sex hormones and sarcopenia in older persons
Sex hormone treatments can increase muscle mass in older adults but have inconsistent effects on muscle function and may carry cardiovascular risks.
research Negative Impact of Testosterone Deficiency and 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Therapy on Metabolic and Sexual Function in Men
Low testosterone and 5α-reductase inhibitors can harm men's metabolic and sexual health; testosterone therapy may help, but discussing 5α-RIs' side effects is important.
research Novel Uses for the Anabolic Androgenic Steroids Nandrolone and Oxandrolone in the Management of Male Health
Nandrolone and oxandrolone could help treat male health issues like muscle loss and low testosterone.
research Emerging drugs for hypogonadism
New treatments for male hypogonadism are easier to use and target specific tissues to reduce side effects.
research Acupuncture in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Potential and Challenge
Acupuncture may improve reproductive and metabolic functions in PCOS without negative side effects, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.
research Use of genetics in the prediction of success in male pattern hair loss therapy and mechanistic studies
Genetics can help tailor treatments for male pattern hair loss, improving outcomes like stabilization or modest regrowth.
