Research
510-540 / 1000+ results research The evolutionary impact of androgen levels on prostate cancer in a multi-scale mathematical model
Low androgen levels might delay prostate cancer but could lead to more aggressive, therapy-resistant cancers.
research The genetics of androgenetic alopecia
Genes and hormones cause hair loss, with four genes contributing equally.
research Stem cell-derived motor neurons from spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy patients
The study suggests that motor neurons created from stem cells of patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy show signs of the disease, including changes in protein levels and cell functions.
research What does androgenetic alopecia have to do with COVID‐19? An insight into a potential new therapy
Androgenetic alopecia linked to COVID-19 severity; drugs reducing androgen receptor activation may help.
research Hunting the genes in male‐pattern alopecia: how important are they, how close are we and what will they tell us?
Genes play a significant role in male-pattern baldness, and understanding them could lead to new treatments and insights into related health issues.
research The Androgen Receptor Antagonizes Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling in Epidermal Stem Cells
Androgen receptor activity blocks Wnt/β-catenin signaling, affecting hair growth and skin cell balance.
research Androgen receptor gene polymorphism and polycystic ovary syndrome
The conclusion is that androgen receptor gene polymorphism might be a marker for polycystic ovary syndrome, but more research is needed.
research Androgen receptor gene CAG repeat polymorphism in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Longer CAG repeat lengths in the androgen receptor gene are linked to higher testosterone levels in women with PCOS.
research Ornithine decarboxylase is upregulated by the androgen receptor in skeletal muscle and regulates myoblast proliferation
Androgens increase muscle mass by promoting myoblast growth through ornithine decarboxylase.
research A Mouse Model of Androgenetic Alopecia
Mice with human gene experienced hair loss when treated with DHT.
research Recent positive selection of a human androgen receptor/ectodysplasin A2 receptor haplotype and its relationship to male pattern baldness
A specific genetic mutation may increase male pattern baldness risk, especially in Europeans.
research Androgen receptor gene polymorphisms and risk for androgenetic alopecia: a meta-analysis
G allele of AR Stul polymorphism linked to higher hair loss risk, especially in white people.
research Expression of androgen receptors in skin appendage tumors: An immunohistochemical study
Androgen receptors are found in some skin tumors but not in hair follicle tumors.
research Redefining hormone resistance in prostate cancer
The conclusion suggests that prostate cancer should be classified by castration status and that new therapies targeting androgen receptor signaling show promise.
research Reversal of androgenetic alopecia by topical ketoconzole: Relevance of anti-androgenic activity
Ketoconazole lotion can improve hair regrowth for some people with androgenetic alopecia.
research Immunohistochemical Evaluation of Androgen Receptor and Nerve Structure Density in Human Prepuce from Patients with Persistent Sexual Side Effects after Finasteride Use for Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride, a hair loss drug, may cause long-term sexual side effects due to changes in hormone receptor levels.
research Therapeutic Strategies to Target the Androgen Receptor
Therapies targeting the androgen receptor are being developed to treat prostate cancer and improve bone and muscle health.
research Sequence of the intron/exon junctions of the coding region of the human androgen receptor gene and identification of a point mutation in a family with complete androgen insensitivity.

research Androgen Receptor Accelerates Premature Senescence of Human Dermal Papilla Cells in Association with DNA Damage
Androgen receptor signaling causes early aging of cells important for hair growth by damaging their DNA.
research Lack of androgen receptor transcriptional activity in human keratinocytes
Human keratinocytes do not naturally respond to androgens.
research Genetic Variants Associated with Hyperandrogenemia in PCOS Pathophysiology
Certain genetic variations are linked to increased androgen levels in PCOS, but more research is needed to understand these connections fully.
