research Blockade of Androgen Markers Using a Novel Betasitosterol, Thioctic Acid and Carnitine-containing Compound in Prostate and Hair Follicle Cell-based Assays
The new compound was more effective than finasteride in reducing markers of hair loss and prostate issues in cell tests.
research Is COVID-19 Gender-sensitive?
Men have more severe COVID-19 outcomes than women.
research Physicochemical properties of pH-sensitive hydrogels based on hydroxyethyl cellulose–hyaluronic acid and for applications as transdermal delivery systems for skin lesions
The hydrogel with a 1:3 ratio of hydroxyethyl cellulose to hyaluronic acid is effective for delivering drugs through the skin to treat acne.
research Roles of steroid sulfatase in brain and other tissues
Steroid sulfatase is important for activating hormones that affect memory, brain function, and certain diseases, and could be a target for treating hormone-related disorders.
research Is prostate-specific antigen a potential new marker of androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome?
Prostate-specific antigen may be a new marker for excess male hormones in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Scarring hair follicle destruction is driven by the collapse of EGFR-protected JAK-STAT1-sensitive stem cell immune privilege
A protein called EGFR protects hair follicle stem cells, and when it's disrupted, hair follicles can be damaged, but blocking certain pathways can restore hair growth.
research The AndroCoV Clinical Scoring for COVID-19 Diagnosis: A Prompt, Feasible, Costless, and Highly Sensitive Diagnostic Tool for COVID-19 Based on a 1757-Patient Cohort
The AndroCoV Clinical Scoring is a quick, accurate, and free tool for diagnosing COVID-19.
research Expression and roles of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein in ‘non-classical’, extra-adrenal and extra-gonadal cells and tissues
The protein StAR is found in 17 different organs and can affect hair loss and brain functions, but its full role is not yet fully understood.
research Hirsutism and Virilization in the Female
The chapter explains the causes of excessive hair growth and masculinization in women and how to measure hormone levels related to these conditions.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome: insight into pathogenesis and a common association with insulin resistance
Improving insulin sensitivity and weight loss can help manage polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
research Polycystic ovary syndrome: insight into pathogenesis and a common association with insulin resistance
PCOS is often linked to insulin resistance and obesity, and weight loss can improve symptoms.
research Intracrinology and The Skin
DHEA stimulates skin oil glands and could help postmenopausal women, with potential for acne and excessive hair growth treatments.
research 12 Treatment of hirsutism with 5α-reductase inhibitors
New compounds may soon be tested to treat excessive hair growth in women.
research Hirsutism: Diagnosis and Treatment
The document concludes that hirsutism can be managed with various treatments tailored to the individual, potentially improving quality of life.
research Topical finasteride in the treatment of androgenic alopecia. Preliminary evaluations after a 16-month therapy course
Topical finasteride helps regrow hair and reduce balding without side effects.
research Influence of Dosing Time on the Efficacy and Safety of Finasteride in Rats
Dosing time affects finasteride's effectiveness and safety in rats.
research Alopecia: managing the basics
The document concludes that treatments for female hair loss and excess body hair are available, but managing expectations is important.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research Steroidogenic Isoenzymes in Human Hair and Their Potential Role in Androgenetic Alopecia
Steroidogenic isoenzymes may help improve treatments for common hair loss.
research Male pattern hair loss: prevention rather than regrowth
Preventing hair loss is more effective than regrowth; oral finasteride is a realistic option.
research Steroid Hormones
Steroid hormones are crucial for body functions and have various medical uses, but their misuse can lead to dependence.
