Some synthesized compounds were more effective than Finasteride in reducing prostate cancer cell growth and androgen levels.
research The Role of 11-Oxygenated Androgens and Endocrine Disruptors in Androgen Excess Disorders in Women
PCOS involves high 11-oxygenated androgens and BPA may worsen it, while IH is not inflammatory.
research Androgens in cervical cancer: Their role in epidemiology and biology
Androgens increase cervical cancer risk and affect its development.
research COVID-19 Severity and Androgen Receptor Polymorphism
Men with more CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene and lower testosterone levels may experience more severe COVID-19.
research Alert to US physicians: DHEA, widely used as an OTC androgen supplement, may exacerbate COVID-19
The over-the-counter supplement DHEA could make COVID-19 worse, especially in diabetics and people with G6PD deficiency.
research Jagged1 and Epidermal Growth Factor Promoted Androgen-Suppressed Mouse Hair Growth In Vitro and In Vivo
Jagged1 and Epidermal Growth Factor together significantly increased hair growth in mice with androgen-suppressed hair.
research Ectopic Adrenal Rests in Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia as a Cause of Androgen Excess after Adrenalectomy Detected by Pelvic Venous Sampling
Ectopic adrenal rests can cause androgen excess after adrenalectomy and may need targeted surgery.
research Diphenyl ethers as androgen receptor antagonists for the topical suppression of sebum production
Diphenyl ethers can potentially reduce excess oil production when applied on the skin, helping treat conditions like acne.
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 Quantitative assessment of spironolactone treatment in women with diffuse androgen-dependent alopecia
Spironolactone improved hair density and quality in women with hair loss.
research Side gland of Suncus murinus as a new model of sebaceous gland: 5?-reductase, androgen receptor, and nuclear androgen content in male and female animals
The side gland of Suncus murinus is a good model for studying human sebaceous glands.
research 4 Anti-androgens in gynaecological practice
Cyproterone acetate is effective for treating hirsutism and acne in women by blocking androgens in the skin and also works as a contraceptive.
research Normalized androgen ratio: its application to clinical dermatology
The normalized androgen ratio can help manage conditions with excess androgen activity in women.
research Activation of nuclear factor κB in response to cream ingestion is related to ovarian androgen hypersecretion in polycystic ovary syndrome
Eating cream can increase ovarian androgen production in women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, which is not related to obesity.
research The promoter of an androgen dependent gene in the hamster flank organ
Researchers found a gene in hamsters that responds to male hormones and may be indirectly controlled by them.
research Androgen Receptor–Mediated Paracrine Signaling Induces Regression of Blood Vessels in the Dermal Papilla in Androgenetic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness is linked to higher levels of a certain receptor in the scalp, which leads to the shrinking of blood vessels and hair loss. Early treatment targeting this receptor could be more effective.
research COVID‐19, androgens, and androgenic alopecia
COVID-19 may worsen with androgens; anti-androgen drugs could help.
research Male balding as a major risk factor for severe COVID-19: A possible role for targeting androgens and transmembrane protease serine 2 to protect vulnerable individuals
Severe male balding may increase the risk of serious COVID-19, and treatments that reduce androgens or block a specific enzyme might help protect these individuals.
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 Effect of Saw Palmetto Supplements on Androgen-Sensitive LNCaP Human Prostate Cancer Cell Number and Syrian Hamster Flank Organ Growth
Saw palmetto supplements may reduce prostate cancer cell growth without being toxic.
research Increased androgen receptor messenger RNA in frontal-parietal hair follicles of women with androgenetic alopecia
Women with hair loss have more androgen receptors in certain hair follicles.
research The role of androgens in hormone replacement therapy
Androgen therapy can help with symptoms like low libido in women, but more research is needed to understand its long-term safety and effects on health.
research Synthesis and structure–activity investigation of iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins for development as androgen receptor radioligands
Scientists created iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins that could potentially be used for imaging prostate cancer. Some versions with specific side-chains showed high potential for this use.
research Androgens and the Menopause
Testosterone replacement may help postmenopausal women with sexual function and bone density, but suitable treatments are limited.
research Androgens downregulate BMP2 impairing the inductive role of dermal papilla cells on hair follicle stem cells differentiation
Androgens reduce BMP2, which weakens the ability of certain cells to help hair stem cells become different types of cells.
research What does the research say about androgen use and cerebrovascular events?
Androgen use may increase the risk of stroke, but more research is needed.
research The anti-androgen combination, flutamide plus finasteride, paradoxically suppressed LH and androgen concentrations in pregnant spotted hyenas, but not in males
Flutamide and finasteride reduced sex hormones in pregnant hyenas, but increased them in males.
research PLASMA UNBOUND AND UNCONJUGATED ANDROGENS IN ORIENTAL MEN
Oriental men may have lower androgen activity affecting hair growth despite similar testosterone levels to Caucasian men.
