research The androgen receptor gene polyglycine repeat polymorphism is associated with memory performance in healthy Chinese individuals
Certain gene variations are linked to better memory in healthy Chinese women.
research Androgens and hair: a biological paradox with clinical consequences
Androgens can both increase body hair and cause scalp hair loss.
research Chapter 23. Therapeutic Control of Androgen Action
Understanding how androgens work is key for creating new treatments for prostate issues and hair/skin conditions.
research Androgen profile in Chinese women with polycystic ovary syndrome in their reproductive years
Chinese women with PCOS have higher androgen levels, which change with age and weight.
research Androgens and the Menopause
Testosterone replacement may help postmenopausal women with sexual function and bone density, but suitable treatments are limited.
research Additive in vivo growth-inhibitory effects of flutamide and finasteride on androgen-sensitive Shionogi 115 carcinoma
Combining flutamide and finasteride can reduce prostate weight and tumor growth, potentially benefiting treatments needing optimal DHT inhibition.
research Androgens in SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Infections
Men, particularly those with hair loss, are more likely to get the virus, and those with prostate cancer may have milder symptoms. Testosterone's role in the disease is unclear, and the virus doesn't seem to harm male fertility. Women with PCOS might be at higher risk. More research is needed.
research Anti-androgen therapy in dermatology: a review
Anti-androgens are effective for female acne but less so for male-pattern hair loss, with side effects similar to birth control pills.
research Extraordinary claims without extraordinary evidence: controversy on anti‐androgen therapy for COVID‐19
The letter is skeptical about the effectiveness of anti-androgen therapy for COVID-19 and calls for strong evidence from clinical trials.
research The involvement of androgens in human hair growth
Androgens play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness and excessive hairiness.
research FINASTERIDE INHIBITS 5?-REDUCTASE ACTIVITY IN HUMAN DERMAL FIBROBLASTS: PREDICTION OF ITS THERAPEUTIC APPLICATION IN ANDROGEN-RELATED SKIN DISEASES
Finasteride helps treat skin issues like acne and baldness by blocking testosterone conversion.
research Androgens modulate endometrial function
Androgens affect the function and health of the endometrium.
research Development and Validation of Androgen-induced Hair Loss and Anagen Induction Mouse Models for Pharmacological Evaluation of Anti-Androgenic Agents
The mouse models are effective for testing new hair loss treatments.
research Analysis of androgen receptor expression and activity in the mouse brain
Androgen receptors in the mouse brain may explain cognitive and mood changes in prostate cancer treatment.
research The Interrelation Between Hirsutism and Androgen Hormone Levels as Well as Serum TNFΑ Concentrations
High androgen levels can cause hirsutism and increase inflammation.
research 854 Dermal fibroblasts enhance growth factors production by androgens, and modulate keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation
Androgens increase growth factors in skin cells, which may lead to acne.
research Hormonal Treatment for Skin Androgen-Related Disorders
Hormonal treatments can help with hair loss, acne, and excess hair growth, but it takes 3-6 months to see results and patients should know the possible side effects.
research Androgen Biosynthesis and Gene Defects
Gene mutations can cause problems in male genital development.
research In vivo and in vitro exposure to free fatty acids induce increased androgen production in animal models: a potential pathogenic factor of the polycystic ovary syndrome
Free fatty acids may increase androgen production, potentially contributing to polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Alterations in androgen conjugate levels in women and men with alopecia
Women with hair loss have higher androgen levels, while men with early balding have altered androgen ratios.
research Criteria for Defining Polycystic Ovary Syndrome as a Predominantly Hyperandrogenic Syndrome: An Androgen Excess Society Guideline
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome should be seen mainly as a condition of excess male hormones, with a focus on this in its definition.
research Female pattern hair loss in complete androgen insensitivity syndrome
Hair loss in women may have causes other than hormones.
research Androgen receptor gene CAG repeat polymorphism in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Longer CAG repeat lengths in the androgen receptor gene are linked to higher testosterone levels in women with PCOS.
research Shorter CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene may enhance hyperandrogenicity in polycystic ovary syndrome
Shorter CAG repeats in a specific gene may increase male hormone activity and symptoms like acne and excess hair in women with PCOS.
research Basics of androgen synthesis and action
Androgens like testosterone are important hormones for both men and women, made differently in each sex and affecting the body by regulating genes and quick interactions with cell components.
research Androgen Receptor Accelerates Premature Senescence of Human Dermal Papilla Cells in Association with DNA Damage
Androgen receptor signaling causes early aging of cells important for hair growth by damaging their DNA.
research Androgens trigger different growth responses in genetically identical human hair follicles in organ culture that reflect their epigenetic diversity in life
Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.
research Antiandrogen Drugs Lower Serum Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Levels in Hirsute Subjects: Evidence That Serum PSA Is a Marker of Androgen Action in Women1
Antiandrogen drugs can reduce PSA levels in women with excess hair, suggesting PSA is a sign of male hormone activity in women.
research Polymorphism of CAG and GGN repeats of androgen receptor gene in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
