The enzyme steroid sulfatase is linked to breast cancer and other conditions, and inhibitors are being developed for treatment.
research An Update of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia is a genetic disorder with two forms, causing symptoms like early puberty and severe acne, but can be identified through screening and treated with glucocorticoids.
research Matriptase activation and shedding with HAI-1 is induced by steroid sex hormones in human prostate cancer cells, but not in breast cancer cells
Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.

The document concludes that new treatments are needed to better manage acne and reduce side effects related to current therapies.
research Is seborrhea a sign of autonomic impairment in Parkinson's disease?
Seborrhea in Parkinson's disease may be linked to hormones, not autonomic impairment.
research Prospective Cohort Study on the Effects and Tolerability of Flutamide in Patients with Female Pattern Hair Loss
Flutamide effectively treats female pattern hair loss with low doses showing good liver tolerance.
research Genetics and Pathophysiology of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
The document concludes that patient outcomes for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia are often not ideal because of poor management and a need for better diagnosis and treatment methods.
research Evaluation and treatment of male and female pattern hair loss
Early diagnosis and treatment, using finasteride, minoxidil, or hair transplantation, improves hair loss outcomes.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Estrogens and the skin
Estrogen loss during menopause worsens skin health, but hormone replacement therapy may improve it, though more research is needed.
research Obesity and the skin
Obesity is linked to various skin problems and may increase the risk of skin cancer.
research Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and polycystic ovary syndrome
People with PCOS, especially if obese, often have NAFLD, linked to obesity, insulin resistance, and high androgen levels.
research The role of nuclear hormone receptors in cutaneous wound repair
Nuclear hormone receptors play a significant role in skin wound healing and could lead to better treatment methods.
research Nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia
Nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia is a genetic condition that can cause early puberty and fertility problems, treated with specific steroids.
research Differential Expression of miR-93 and miR-21 in Granulosa Cells and Follicular Fluid of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Associating with Different Phenotypes
The study found that certain microRNAs are higher in the cells and lower in the fluid of women with a specific type of polycystic ovary syndrome, and one microRNA could potentially help diagnose the condition.
research Cardiometabolic profile of young women with hypoprolactinemia
Low prolactin in young women may increase heart and metabolism risks.
research Hair loss and hyperprolactinemia in women
Moderately high prolactin levels do not cause hair loss in women.
research Management of acne vulgaris with hormonal therapies in adult female patients

research Male pattern baldness and risk of colorectal neoplasia
Men with certain types of baldness at age 45 may have a higher risk of colon cancer and colorectal adenoma.
research Testicular Steroidogenesis
Genetic defects in testosterone production can cause hormonal and developmental disorders, and more research is needed to understand androgen regulation and develop safer treatments.
research Hair cortisol in polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with PCOS have higher hair cortisol levels, which are linked to worse metabolic and inflammatory conditions.
research Anabolic-androgenic steroids. Mechanism of action and clinical effects
Anabolic-androgenic steroids are dangerous and educating people about their risks is essential.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research The association of urolithiasis and androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss linked to kidney stones in people under 60.
research Regional Dermatology
The document explains hair and nail biology, common hair loss conditions and treatments, oral and genital skin diseases, and the risks and treatments associated with squamous cell carcinoma.
research Penis Endocrinology
