New compounds were made and tested, with compound 6 showing potential for treating prostate-related diseases.
research A method for simultaneous analysis of androgens, dutasteride and finasteride in human serum by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry
A new method was developed to analyze certain hormones and drugs in human blood efficiently.
research A liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method for determination of aristolochic acid‐I in rat plasma
A reliable method was developed to measure aristolochic acid-I in rat blood.
research Female androgenic alopecia. The 3 alpha,17 beta-androstanediol glucuronide/sex hormone binding globulin ratio as a possible marker for female pattern baldness
Women with more 3α,17β-androstanediol glucuronide compared to sex hormone binding globulin are more likely to have female pattern baldness.
research (282) CONSEQUENCES OF ANABOLIC-ANDROGENIC STEROID ABUSE IN MALES: RESULTS FROM A META-ANALYSIS STUDY
Anabolic-androgenic steroids harm male hormone levels, sperm, metabolism, and can cause acne, hair loss, and breast growth.
research PLASMA TESTOSTERONE GLUCOSIDURONATE: A RELIABLE INDICATOR OF FEMALE HYPERANDROGENISM (IDIOPATHIC HIRSUTISM AND ANDROGENIC ALOPECIA)
Measuring plasma testosterone glucosiduronate is a reliable way to detect high male hormone levels in women.
research Expression of concern: potential risk for developing severe COVID-19 disease among anabolic steroid users
Anabolic steroid users may face higher risk of severe COVID-19.
research Impact of a Novel Dehydroepiandrosterone Derivative on the Metabolism of RWPE-1 and LNCaP Cell Lines
Steroid 12 shows promise as a targeted treatment for prostate cancer by selectively reducing cell growth and increasing cell death.
research SUN-118 A Case of Anastrozole Induced Hyperandrogenism
Anastrozole can cause increased testosterone, leading to symptoms like hair growth and thinning.
research Synthesis and biological evaluation of esters of 16-formyl-17-methoxy-dehydroepiandrosterone derivatives as inhibitors of 5α-reductase type 2
Certain derivatives are more effective 5α-reductase type 2 inhibitors than finasteride.
research Abiraterone and spironolactone in prostate cancer: a combination to avoid
Don't combine abiraterone and spironolactone for prostate cancer treatment as it may worsen the disease.
research Characterization of recombinant human liver dehydroepiandrosterone sulfotransferase with minoxidil as the substrate
Human liver enzyme DHEA ST helps process minoxidil.
research Androgen metabolism in hirsute patients treated with cyproterone acetate
Cyproterone acetate effectively reduced hair growth in hirsute patients by lowering androgen levels and altering androgen metabolism.
research Measurement and comparison of various androgen levels in women with severe acne, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia
Women with severe acne, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia often have higher levels of certain androgens, but the specific pattern can't be predicted just by looking at symptoms.
research Pharmacological Profile of 9,11-Dehydrocortexolone 17α-Butyrate (CB-03-04), a New Androgen Antagonist with Antigonadotropic Activity
CB-03-04 shows promise as a treatment for prostate issues due to its strong anti-androgen effects.
research Simultaneous pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analysis of 5α-reductase inhibitors and androgens by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry
The method effectively measures drug impact on DHT levels in prostate treatments.
research Improved 2α-Hydroxylation Efficiency of Steroids by CYP154C2 Using Structure-Guided Rational Design
Mutants of CYP154C2 enzyme significantly improved steroid conversion efficiency.
research Crystal structure of Steroid 5-alpha-reductase 2 in complex with Finasteride
research Pharmacology of antiandrogens
Antiandrogens affect androgen-dependent body functions and are used for various medical conditions, with some risks like fetus feminization, but new forms like 17α-propylmesterolone show promise for acne without systemic effects.
research Androgen Receptors and Androgen-Dependent Initiation of Protein Synthesis in the Prostate
Prostate cells have proteins that bind to specific hormones, which can increase protein production when activated by these hormones.
research Sex steroid synthesis in human skin in situ: The roles of aromatase and steroidogenic acute regulatory protein in the homeostasis of human skin
Human skin produces sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, influenced by ARO and StAR, which may affect skin elasticity and hair growth.
research AN ATTEMPT TO ASSESS THE MAGNITUDE OF ENDOGENOUS ANDROGEN PRODUCTION IN A CASE OF THE ADRENOGENITAL SYNDROME*
A 17-year-old female with adrenogenital syndrome produces very high levels of androgens, which prevent complete feminization despite high estrogen doses.
research Dehydroepiandrosterone- and glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenases in the hair cycle of the rat
research SERUM-CONCENTRATIONS OF Dehydroepyandrosterone-sulfate IN MEN WITH ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
Men with hair loss don't necessarily have higher levels of the hormone DHEA-S, but this hormone tends to decrease with age.
research Estrogenic Potential of 2-Alkyl-4-(thio)chromenone 6-O-Sulfamates: Potent Inhibitors of Human Steroid Sulfatase
A substance called Compound 2g can strongly block STS (a hormone-related enzyme) without affecting estrogen levels, making it potentially good for treating breast cancer.
