510-540 / 1000+ resultsresearch Membrane androgen receptors may mediate androgen reinforcement
Androgen self-administration might be controlled by membrane receptors, not nuclear ones.
research Non-canonical dimerization of the androgen receptor and other nuclear receptors: implications for human disease
Mutations in certain receptors can cause diseases and offer new treatment options.
research Early androgen activity after birth determines the hypothalamic expression of androgen and estrogen receptors in adulthood in female but not in male rats
Early androgen exposure affects hormone receptor expression in adult female rats' brains, but not in males.
research Testosterone Down-regulates Expression of αVβ3-integrin, E-cadherin and Mucin-1 during Uterine Receptivity Period in Rats
Testosterone reduces key molecules needed for early pregnancy in rats.
research Androgen binding profiles of two distinct nuclear androgen receptors in Atlantic croaker (Micropogonias undulatus)
Different types of androgens bind differently to two receptors, AR1 and AR2, in Atlantic croaker's brain and ovarian tissues, suggesting these receptors may control different androgen actions in fish.
research Minoxidil May be a Partial Agonist of Estrogen Receptor Alpha
Minoxidil might partially activate estrogen receptors, affecting hair growth.
research The biochemical and phenotypic characterization of females homozygous for 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency.
Females with 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency have less body hair, no acne, normal fertility, and delayed menarche.
research The murine hair follicle is a melatonin target
Melatonin directly affects mouse hair follicles and may influence hair growth.
research Delayed hair cycle in mnd2 mutant mice lacking HtrA2 serine protease activity
HtrA2 activity is crucial for normal hair growth by regulating fat cell development.
research Expression and functional relevance of melatonin receptors in hair follicle biology
Melatonin receptors in hair follicles help regulate hair growth and could treat hair loss.
research Sexually dimorphic effect of progesterone and its reduced metabolites on the gene expression of myelin proteins in rat Schwann cells
Progesterone and its metabolites affect myelin protein expression differently in male and female rat Schwann cells.
research Four murine monoclonal antibodies specific for the inner root sheath in the human hair follicle
Four antibodies were developed to help study hair follicle cell differentiation.
research Human type 3 5α-reductase is expressed in peripheral tissues at higher levels than types 1 and 2 and its activity is potently inhibited by finasteride and dutasteride
Type 3 5α-reductase is more common and finasteride and dutasteride strongly inhibit it.
research Myocyte Androgen Receptor Modulates Body Composition and Metabolic Parameters
Activating androgen receptors in muscle can increase muscle mass and reduce fat.

A Turkish family with sparse hair and eyebrow loss has a mutation in the U2HR gene linked to Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis.
research Impact of One-Week Administration of Dihydrotestosterone in Rat Anterior Pituitary Gland
Dihydrotestosterone changes some hormone-related gene expressions in rat pituitary glands but doesn't affect the estrous cycle.
research Androgen receptors are only present in mesenchyme-derived dermal papilla cells of red deer (Cervus elaphus) neck follicles when raised androgens induce a mane in the breeding season
Red deer only have androgen receptors in neck hair cells for mane growth during breeding season.
