research Circulating and intraprostatic sex steroid hormonal profiles in relation to male pattern baldness and chest hair density among men diagnosed with localized prostate cancers
Baldness in men with prostate cancer is linked to higher levels of certain sex hormones, but chest hair density is not.
research Low sex-hormone binding globulin levels in young women with diffuse hair loss
Young women with diffuse hair loss may have low SHBG levels, which could lead to more active testosterone and contribute to their hair loss.

HSD3B1 gene variant and being overweight linked to hair loss in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Is There Any Association Between Clinical and Biochemical Hyperandrogenism in Women With Female Pattern Hair Loss?

research Minoxidil increases 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and 5α-reductase activity of cultured human dermal papilla cells from balding scalp
Minoxidil boosts enzymes that help hair growth.
research Androgen receptor transactivity is potentiated by TGF-β1 through Smad3 but checked by its coactivator Hic-5/ARA55 in balding dermal papilla cells
TGF-β1 increases androgen receptor activity in hair loss, but Hic-5/ARA55 can counter this effect.
research Hair growth effects of oral administration of finasteride, a steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor, alone and in combination with topical minoxidil in the balding stumptail macaque.
Finasteride and minoxidil together promote hair growth better than either alone.
research 0951 Breezula, a clinical stage topical anti-androgen, promotes dermal papilla inductivity and reduces IL-6 secretion in balding skin samples ex vivo
Breezula® may be more effective than Minoxidil in promoting hair growth by reducing a hair growth inhibitor.
research Safety and efficacy of actinic keratoses reduction with a 3 day application of ingenol disoxate field treatment to the face, chest and balding scalp
