People who carry the 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency gene are not more likely to have excessive male hormone levels.
research Androgen deprivation therapy may constitute a more effective COVID-19 prophylactic than therapeutic strategy
Androgen deprivation therapy might be better for preventing COVID-19 than treating it.
research Expression profile analysis of dermal papilla cells mRNA in response to WNT10B treatment
WNT10B affects hair growth by altering gene activity in hair cells.
research Recommendations for treatment of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (NCCAH): An update
The document suggests treating individuals with nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia who show symptoms, especially those related to excess male hormones.
research A Role for Steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 in Vascular Remodelling During Endometrial Decidualisation
The enzyme 5α-reductase is important for proper blood vessel development during the fertility-related transformation of the uterus lining.
research Skin manifestations of hyperandrogenism: an update
Targeting androgen receptors in the skin is the most effective treatment for hyperandrogenism-related skin issues.
research Kinetic analysis of LY320236: competitive inhibitor of type I and non-competitive inhibitor of type II human steroid 5α-reductase
LY320236 is a strong blocker of two enzymes that change testosterone into dihydrotestosterone and might help treat conditions related to male hormones.
research Becker's nevus associated with chromosomal mosaicism and congenital adrenal hyperplasia
High androgen levels and genetic factors likely cause Becker's nevus and related symptoms.
research Female pattern hair loss
FPHL is a common, age-related, genetic hair loss with unclear causes and limited treatment options.
research Development and evaluation of antisense shRNA-encoding plasmid loaded solid lipid nanoparticles against 5-α reductase activity
The new particle system could be a promising treatment for diseases related to the 5-α reductase enzyme.
research MicroRNA Species in Follicular Fluid Associating With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Related Intermediary Phenotypes
Certain microRNAs in the fluid around eggs are linked to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and may help diagnose it.
research Body composition changes and inhibition of fat development in vivo implicates androgen in regulation of stem cell lineage allocation
Androgen is important in controlling stem cell differentiation, reducing fat development, and increasing lean mass.
research Key targets of hormonal treatment of prostate cancer. Part 2: the androgen receptor and 5α-reductase
Blocking DHT production more strongly may help control advanced prostate cancer and improve quality of life.
research Ultrasound-activated particles as CRISPR/Cas9 delivery system for androgenic alopecia therapy
Scientists have created a new hair loss treatment using ultrasound to deliver gene-editing particles, which resulted in up to 90% hair regrowth in mice.
research Androgen receptors and their biology
Androgen receptors are key for development and health, affecting conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness.
research Higher PDCD4 expression is associated with obesity, insulin resistance, lipid metabolism disorders, and granulosa cell apoptosis in polycystic ovary syndrome
More PDCD4 is linked to obesity, insulin problems, and cell death in ovaries for those with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Contribution of androgens to chronic allograft nephropathy is mediated by dihydrotestosterone
Male hormones worsen kidney transplant damage, but blocking them helps.
research 892 Behavior of the two circulating androgens testosterone and DHEA and their main intracellular metabolites in an androgen-sensitive sebocyte cell line
Testosterone affects androgen receptors and lipid storage in cells, while DHEA does not convert to testosterone or affect these receptors in the same way.
research Pharmacologic Modulation of Sebaceous Gland Activity: Mechanisms and Clinical Applications
The document concludes that new treatments are needed to better manage acne and reduce side effects related to current therapies.
research Androgen Receptor Ligands: Agonists and Antagonists
Different substances that activate or block the androgen receptor can affect male development and treat conditions like prostate cancer.
research Recent positive selection of a human androgen receptor/ectodysplasin A2 receptor haplotype and its relationship to male pattern baldness
A specific genetic mutation may increase male pattern baldness risk, especially in Europeans.
research The SAHA Syndrome
SAHA syndrome is a condition in women involving skin and hair issues, often related to hormonal imbalances, and is treated based on the underlying cause.
research COMBINATION OF AN ANTIANDROGEN AND A 5α-REDUCTASE INHIBITOR: A FURTHER STEP TOWARDS TOTAL ANDROGEN BLOCKADE?
Using two drugs together, Flutamide and 4-MA, is more effective for blocking male hormones than using each one alone.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
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 Androgen receptor–mediated inhibition of cutaneous wound healing
Lowering testosterone speeds up wound healing in male mice.
research c-MYC-Induced Sebaceous Gland Differentiation Is Controlled by an Androgen Receptor/p53 Axis
The balance between androgen receptor and p53 is crucial for sebaceous gland differentiation.
research Polygonum multiflorum extract support hair growth by elongating anagen phase and abrogating the effect of androgen in cultured human dermal papilla cells
Polygonum multiflorum extract helps hair grow longer and fights the effects of hormones that cause hair loss.
research Dihydrotestosterone Regulates Hair Growth Through the Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway in C57BL/6 Mice and In Vitro Organ Culture
