810-840 / 1000+ resultsresearch A novel actor in skin biology: the mineralocorticoid receptor
Blocking the mineralocorticoid receptor can help treat skin thinning caused by steroids.
research Mutation of the doublecortin gene in male patients with double cortex syndrome: Somatic mosaicism detected by hair root analysis
Hair root analysis can effectively detect somatic mosaicism in double cortex syndrome.
research Mechanism of action of bolandiol (19-nortestosterone-3β,17β-diol), a unique anabolic steroid with androgenic, estrogenic, and progestational activities
Bolandiol, a synthetic steroid, builds muscle and bone without greatly affecting sex glands, and works differently from other hormones.
research Glioblastoma cells express crucial enzymes involved in androgen synthesis: 3β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, 17‐20α‐hydroxylase, 17β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and 5α‐reductase
Glioblastoma cells can make androgens, which might help the tumor grow.
research A novel regio-specific cyclosporin hydroxylase gene revealed through the genome mining of Pseudonocardia autotrophica
Scientists found a new gene in a bacterium that can modify an immunosuppressant drug, potentially helping to treat hair loss.
research Treatment of androgenic disorders with dexamethasone: Dose-response relationship for suppression of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate
Lower doses of dexamethasone can safely reduce high DHEAS levels in women with androgenic disorders.
research Muscle pain in a woman with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency resolved with testosterone therapy. A case report with 10 years of follow-up
Testosterone therapy improved symptoms in a woman with congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Neuroimaging of sleep and depression
Sleep problems and skin issues affect each other; poor sleep can worsen skin conditions, and some skin treatments can improve or harm sleep quality.
research Greater conversion of testosterone to 5α-dihydrotestosterone, reflecting increased peripheral 5α-reductase activity in nude mice treated with high doses of cyclosporine A
High doses of cyclosporine A increase testosterone conversion, possibly boosting hair growth.
research Corticotropin-Releasing Factor Down-Regulates Hair Growth-Related Cytokines in Cultured Human Dermal Papilla Cells
CRF can cause hair loss, but blocking its receptors might prevent this.
research Hypertrichosis and topical corticosteroid use
Prolonged use of topical corticosteroids can cause excessive hair growth.
research Cutaneous hydroxystereoid dehydrogenases and rat-hair-cycle
Certain enzymes react strongly with some hormones in rat skin during hair growth, mainly in sebaceous glands and hair sheaths.
research Physiopathological role of the enzymatic complex 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase in the generation of progesterone and testosterone neuroactive metabolites
The enzymes 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase help create brain-active substances from progesterone and testosterone, which could be used for treatment, but more research is needed to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
research Isolation rearing-induced reduction of brain 5α-reductase expression: Relevance to dopaminergic impairments
Isolation stress in rats reduces brain enzyme levels, affecting dopamine function.
research Effects of androgen overproduction on skin target organs in children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia
research Miscellaneous Steroids
The document concludes that scientists created various steroids with different properties, including a more effective semi-synthetic vitamin D.
research Neurosteroidogenesis Today: Novel Targets for Neuroactive Steroid Synthesis and Action and Their Relevance for Translational Research
New targets for making and using brain-synthesized steroids could lead to better treatments for brain disorders and alcoholism.
research Antibacterials/corticosteroids/minoxidil
research Effects of Abuse of Anabolic Androgenic Steroids on Iraqi Athletes
Abuse of anabolic steroids in Iraqi athletes leads to negative effects on hormones, liver and kidney function, blood sugar, and cholesterol levels.
research CENTRAL STATES DERMATOLOGICAL SOCIETY
Cortisone and ACTH didn't help her hair or nails, but her hair grew back on its own.
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 17beta Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 3 Inhibitors
The document's conclusion cannot be provided because the document is not available or cannot be read.
research Corticotropin-releasing hormone inhibits autophagy by suppressing PTEN to promote apoptosis in dermal papilla cells
CRH causes hair loss by reducing autophagy and increasing cell death in hair cells.
research Androgen- and Estrogen-Secreting Adrenal Cancers
Rare adrenal cancers that secrete androgens or estrogens have a poor prognosis and are treated primarily with surgery.
research Severe Hirsutism in Non Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: A Case Report and Literature Review
The patient with severe hirsutism improved after being diagnosed with non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia and treated with corticosteroids.
research A Phase 1 Study to Investigate the Effects of Cortexolone 17α‐Propionate, Also Known as Clascoterone, on the QT Interval Using the Meal Effect to Demonstrate ECG Assay Sensitivity
Clascoterone is safe for the heart, even at high doses.
research Adrenocortical tumor in 20 months old female
A 20-month-old girl had a rare adrenal tumor removed successfully, with no recurrence for 10 years.
research Factors influencing hydrocortisone permeation into human hair follicles: Use of the skin sandwich system
Different factors like pH, gel type, and chemical enhancers affect how well hydrocortisone gets into hair follicles, and less hydrated skin doesn't work well with the test method.
research 848 Genes implicated in lipid & metabolic regulation downregulated in CCCA
848 genes related to fat and metabolism are less active in people with Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia.
