research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases
The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.
research Intracrine androgen biosynthesis, metabolism and action revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
research Acne-associated syndromes: models for better understanding of acne pathogenesis
The document concludes that certain genetic mutations and dietary factors are involved in acne development, and treatments like isotretinoin and diet changes can help manage it.
research Which chemicals should be grouped together for mixture risk assessments of male reproductive disorders?
Group a wide range of chemicals, not just phthalates, for assessing risks to male reproductive health.
research Clinical relevance of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone metabolism in women
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone play a role in women's health issues like excess hair and baldness, and treatments blocking these hormones may help.
research Hormone therapy in acne

research Androgenetic alopecia and hair growth promotion state of the art: Present and future
Current research explores hair growth drugs, while future research aims for personalized treatments.
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 Management of Sexual Dysfunction in Postmenopausal Breast Cancer Patients Taking Adjuvant Aromatase Inhibitor Therapy
Non-hormonal treatments should be used first for sexual dysfunction in postmenopausal breast cancer patients on aromatase inhibitors, with hormones as a second option.
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 The dihydrotestosterone (DHT) hypothesis of prostate cancer and its therapeutic implications
The document suggests that targeting the hormone DHT could be a more effective treatment for prostate cancer than targeting testosterone.
research Androgens and ovarian function: translation from basic discovery research to clinical impact
Androgens are important for female fertility and could help in IVF treatment, but also play a role in causing PCOS.
research The evolutionary impact of androgen levels on prostate cancer in a multi-scale mathematical model
