30-60 / 1000+ results research Hyposecretion of the adrenal androgen dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) in the majority of the alopecia areata patients: Is it a primitive and pathogenic perturbation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis?
Low DHEA-S levels might be linked to alopecia areata and could be a potential treatment target.
research Effect of Nymphaea caerulea Flower Extract on Improving Scalp Diseases
Nymphaea caerulea flower extract can improve scalp conditions by reducing oil, inflammation, stress hormones, and blood vessel issues.
research Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence
Stress hormone stops a growth signal and keeps hair stem cells inactive, reducing hair growth.
research Determination of steroid hormones in human hair as a retrospective biomarker with HPLC-MS/MS
A new method accurately measures long-term hormone levels in hair.
research Urinary steroid analysis of women with effluvium
Women with effluvium have higher levels of certain urinary steroids, possibly due to stress and increased adrenal activity.
research Stress-induced Interaction of Skin Immune Cells, Hormones, and Neurotransmitters
Stress can worsen skin diseases by affecting immune cells, hormones, and neurotransmitters in the skin.
research Alopecia areata – hyperactivity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis is a myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
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 Effects of finasteride, a 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor, on circulating androgens and gonadotropin secretion in hirsute women.
Finasteride reduces dihydrotestosterone, increases testosterone, and may treat hirsutism in women.
research A case of androgen-secreting adrenal carcinoma with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia
A woman with a rare adrenal tumor and hormonal disorder had improved testosterone levels after surgery, but her menstrual irregularities continued.
research ODP423 Postmenopausal Virilization Secondary to A Rare Left Ovarian Androgen-Secreting Leydig Cell Tumor Localized Using Ovarian Vein Sampling
A woman's masculine symptoms were caused by a rare tumor in her left ovary, which was found using a special blood test.
research Hair as a retrospective calendar of cortisol production—Increased cortisol incorporation into hair in the third trimester of pregnancy
Hair cortisol levels can show increased stress during late pregnancy but only for up to six months.
research Targeting the pre-receptor metabolism of cortisol as a novel therapy in obesity and diabetes
Blocking a specific enzyme might help treat obesity and diabetes, but more research is needed to ensure it's safe.
research Predicting hair cortisol levels with hair pigmentation genes: a possible hair pigmentation bias
Darker hair may lead to higher cortisol readings, suggesting a need to adjust for hair color in studies.
research The metabolic syndrome- associated small G protein ARL15 plays a role in adipocyte differentiation and adiponectin secretion
ARL15 is important for fat cell development and the release of the hormone adiponectin.
research Cortisol levels in blood and hair of unanesthetized grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) following intravenous cosyntropin injection
Injecting cosyntropin into grizzly bears increases blood cortisol but doesn't change hair cortisol levels.
research The Effect of Finasteride on Serum Cortisol and testosterone Levels in Rats
Finasteride lowers cortisol and raises testosterone levels in rats.
