research Is dehydroepiandrosterone a hormone?
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.
research The Biological Actions of Dehydroepiandrosterone Involves Multiple Receptors
DHEA affects multiple receptors and may help with metabolic issues, but its safety and effectiveness in humans are unclear.
research Gender Differences in Mouse Skin Morphology and Specific Effects of Sex Steroids and Dehydroepiandrosterone
Male and female mice have different skin thickness, and hormones affect their skin and hair growth differently.
research Puberty in Boys: Correlation of Plasma Levels of Gonadotropins (LH, FSH), Androgens (Testosterone, Androstenedione, Dehydroepiandrosterone and Its Sulfate), Estrogens (Estrone and Estradiol) and Progestins (Progesterone and 17-Hydroxyprogesterone)
Hormone levels change during puberty, leading to physical developments like pubic hair and voice changes.
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 Serum elevation of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate associated with male pattern baldness in young men
High DHEA-S levels may cause hair loss in young men.
research Effects of Dehydroepiandrosterone Therapy on Pubic Hair Growth and Psychological Well-Being in Adolescent Girls and Young Women with Central Adrenal Insufficiency: A Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Phase III Trial
DHEA treatment helps grow pubic hair and boosts mood in girls with adrenal issues.
research Mechanisms of Action of Dehydroepiandrosterone
DHEA affects various tissues by interacting with multiple receptors and can be converted into sex hormones.
research The Metabolism of Dehydroepiandrosterone by Human Scalp Hair Follicles
Altered DHEA metabolism in hair follicles may be linked to hair loss in balding men.
research Chronic progesterone treatment augments while dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate prevents tolerance to ethanol anxiolysis and withdrawal anxiety in rats
Progesterone increases alcohol tolerance and withdrawal anxiety, while DHEAS prevents them.
research Elevated Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate Levels as the Reproductive Phenotype in the Brothers of Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Brothers of women with PCOS tend to have higher levels of a hormone called DHEAS, indicating a possible genetic link.
research Dehydroepiandrosterone for women in the peri- or postmenopausal phase
DHEA may help with sexual function when used intravaginally by menopausal women but is similar to hormone therapy in other aspects and might cause more side effects like acne and hair loss.
research Serum prolactin and dehydroepiandrosterone concentrations during the summer and winter hair growth cycles of mink (Mustela vison)
Changes in prolactin and DHEA levels are not required for the start of mink hair growth cycles.
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 New ester derivatives of dehydroepiandrosterone as 5α-reductase inhibitors
New compounds may help treat prostate issues without affecting androgen receptors.
research Within-person changes of cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone, testosterone, estradiol, and progesterone in hair across pregnancy, with comparison to a non-pregnant reference group
Hormone levels in hair change during pregnancy, with progesterone increasing significantly compared to non-pregnant women.
research Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and Testosterone Concentrations in Human Hair after Chronic DHEA Supplementation
Chronic DHEA supplementation slightly increases testosterone in hair but stays within safe limits.
research Exclusive androgenic effect of dehydroepiandrosterone in sebaceous glands of rat skin
DHEA acts like a male hormone on rat skin glands and doesn't turn into female hormones there.
research Hydroxylation of dehydroepiandrosterone in human scalp hair folhcles
The enzyme system in hair follicles is similar to the liver's and is affected by certain inhibitors.
research Measurement of cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone, and testosterone in the hair of children: Preliminary results and promising indications
Hair can effectively measure DHEA and testosterone levels in children.
research In vitrometabolism of dehydroepiandrosterone and testosterone by canine hair follicle cells

research METABOLISM OF DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE BY ISOLATED HUMAN HAIR FOLLICLES
Human hair follicles can process steroid hormones like DHEA.
research Dehydroepiandrosterone- and glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenases in the hair cycle of the rat
research Role of Dehydroepiandrosterone and Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate for the Maintenance of Axillary Hair in Women
DHEA and DHEA-S help maintain underarm hair in older women.
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 Testosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin and dehydroepiandrosterone levels and cervical length of Egyptian women with a history of recurrent miscarriages, polycystic ovary syndrome and without the conditions at three stages of pregnancy
