research Cardiac and brainstem neuroinflammatory pathways account for androgenic incitement of cardiovascular and autonomic manifestations in endotoxic male rats
Testosterone plays a big role in heart and nervous system damage caused by inflammation in male rats, suggesting that blocking testosterone production could help manage this condition.
research The Current and Emerging Role of Statins in the Treatment of PCOS: The Evidence to Date
Statins may help treat PCOS by lowering androgen levels and improving cholesterol.
research The AR/miR-221/IGF-1 pathway mediates the pathogenesis of androgenetic alopecia
A specific pathway involving AR, miR-221, and IGF-1 plays a key role in causing common hair loss.
research Higher Levels of Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory Protein and Type I 3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase in the Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Men with baldness have higher levels of specific proteins, suggesting local hormone production may play a role in hair loss.
research Evaluation of the Expression of Genes Associated with Inflammation and Apoptosis in Androgenetic Alopecia by Targeted RNA-Seq
WNT7A gene expression is higher in early stages of androgenetic alopecia, showing the role of WNT pathway, apoptosis, and inflammation in the disorder.
research Allosteric interactions prime androgen receptor dimerization and activation
Certain interactions help prepare the androgen receptor for pairing and activation, which is important for its role in development and disease.
research Androgenetic alopecia: Identification of four genetic risk loci and evidence for the contribution of WNT signaling to its etiology
Four genetic risk areas related to male-pattern baldness were identified, with WNT signaling playing a role in its development.
research Androgenetic alopecia – Current status
The document discusses male and female pattern hair loss, its diagnosis methods, FDA-approved treatments like finasteride and minoxidil, their side effects, and the role of lifestyle changes.
research Genetic Variation in the Human Androgen Receptor Gene Is the Major Determinant of Common Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia
Genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene mainly causes early-onset hair loss, with maternal inheritance playing a key role.
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 Neo-synthesis of estrogenic or androgenic neurosteroids determine whether long-term potentiation or depression is induced in hippocampus of male rat
DHT is needed for long-term depression, while E2 is needed for full long-term potentiation in male rat brains.
research Application of lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA network analysis in the treatment of androgenic alopecia.
The lncRNA LOXL1-AS1 may help diagnose and treat androgenic alopecia.
research Androgens and Cardiovascular Disease
Male hormones may play a role in the development of heart disease, and more research is needed to understand their effects.
research Androgen action on human skin – from basic research to clinical significance
Hormones like testosterone affect skin functions and can cause skin issues when in excess; treatments to manage these effects are only somewhat effective.
research Androgen‐induced neurite outgrowth is mediated by neuritin in motor neurones
Androgens help motor neurons grow by increasing neuritin.
research The Transcriptional Co-Activator cAMP Response Element-Binding Protein-Binding Protein Is Expressed in Prostate Cancer and Enhances Androgen- and Anti-Androgen-Induced Androgen Receptor Function
A protein called CBP is found in prostate cancer and can increase the effectiveness of certain prostate cancer treatments.
research Androgen Action in the Ovary
Androgens are important for normal ovarian function and estrogen production, but may not be the main cause of follicle death.
research Androgens in women
Androgens play a complex role in skin conditions like acne and hair loss in women, and normal blood levels don't always show true androgen status.
research Dermal White Adipose Tissue: A Newly Recognized Layer of Skin Innate Defense
Skin fat plays a key role in immune defense and healing beyond just storing energy.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and Other Androgen Excess–Related Conditions: Can Changes in Dietary Intake Make a Difference?
Dietary changes, including weight loss and a balanced diet, are important for managing PCOS, especially in overweight women.
research The mineralocorticoid receptor as a novel player in skin biology: beyond the renal horizon?
The mineralocorticoid receptor may play a role in skin and hair health and could be a new target for treating related disorders.
research Circulating androgen regulation by androgen-catabolizing gut bacteria in male mouse gut
Gut bacteria can lower androgen levels in male mice.
