research Cyproterone Acetate: A Genotoxic Carcinogen?
Cyproterone acetate may cause liver cancer at high doses, but is considered safe at recommended doses for approved uses.
research Why steroids may not always work in alopecia areata: elevated unoccupied glucocorticoid receptors and decreased levels of thioredoxin
Steroids may not work well for alopecia areata because of high unoccupied receptors and low thioredoxin levels.
research 892 Behavior of the two circulating androgens testosterone and DHEA and their main intracellular metabolites in an androgen-sensitive sebocyte cell line
Testosterone affects androgen receptors and lipid storage in cells, while DHEA does not convert to testosterone or affect these receptors in the same way.
research Androgenic and anti-androgenic effects of progesterone derivatives with different halogens as substituents at the C-6 position
Different halogens on progesterone derivatives can either block or mimic male hormone effects, depending on their type and amount.
research The diagnosis of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, based on serum basal or post-ACTH stimulation 17-hydroxyprogesterone, can lead to false-positive diagnosis
Using 17-hydroxyprogesterone levels to diagnose nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia can result in many incorrect diagnoses.
research ADRENOCORTICAL FUNCTION IN PUBERTY Serum ACTH, Cortisol and Dehydroepiandrosterone in Girls and Boys
Girls have higher DHEA levels earlier in puberty than boys, indicating earlier development.
research Expression and Activity Assay of Human Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Type II in CHO Cells
Finasteride effectively inhibits the enzyme steroid 5 alpha-reductase II.

New targets for making and using brain-synthesized steroids could lead to better treatments for brain disorders and alcoholism.
research Modern approach to the treatment of patients with androgen-dependent dermatopathies
Cyproterone acetate improves skin symptoms and quality of life in women with androgen-related issues.
research Repurposing steroidogenesis inhibitors for the therapy of neuropsychiatric disorders: Promises and caveats
Drugs for hormone-related conditions might help treat mental disorders but could have serious side effects.
research High resolution full scan liquid chromatography mass spectrometry comprehensive screening in sports antidoping urine analysis
The method effectively detects banned substances in urine for sports antidoping.
research Regulation of epidermal proliferation and hair follicle cycling by synthetic photostable retinoid EC23
The synthetic retinoid EC23 thickens skin and promotes hair growth more effectively and with a lower dose than natural retinoids.
research 423 Short-Acting Intramuscular Testosterone Delivered in the Clinic Setting Remains a Key Patient-Friendly and Patient-Directed Option in the Contemporary Management of Hypogonadism
Short-acting testosterone injections in a clinic are a preferred treatment for low testosterone because they work well, are convenient, and patients stick with the treatment.
research 272 Structural changes in human skin after topical application of glucocorticoids assessed by in vivo imaging technologies
Topical glucocorticoids thin the skin and change collagen structure.
research Sex hormones and related compounds, including hormonal contraceptives
Exposure to certain sex hormones can increase health risks, while some hormone therapies may offer benefits for specific conditions.
research Influence of Saw palmetto and Pygeum africana extracts on the urinary concentrations of endogenous anabolic steroids: Relevance to doping analysis
Taking Saw palmetto and Pygeum africana can change the levels of certain steroids in urine, which could cause confusion in doping tests.
research Sexual dimorphism of growth plate prehypertrophic and hypertrophic chondrocytes in response to testosterone requires metabolism to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by steroid 5‐alpha reductase type 1
Male cells need DHT to respond to testosterone, while female cells do not.
research Significance of RU58841 as a therapeutic agent effecting androgen receptor molecular interactions in human hair follicles.
RU58841, a substance from France, can potentially block the effects of hormones that cause hair loss and excessive hair growth, performing better than a similar substance, cyproterone acetate.
