720-750 / 1000+ results research Studies on neurosteroids XXIV. Determination of neuroactive androgens, androsterone and 5α‐androstane‐3α,17β‐diol, in rat brain and serum using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
The methods accurately measured brain androgens, showing most 5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol comes from outside the brain, while androsterone is both transported and made in the brain.
research Hair steroid before and after COVID-19 in preschoolers: the moderation of family characteristics
Family dynamics affect preschoolers' stress levels, especially DHEA.
research [Skin cells as steroid target; the steroid action in some skin diseases and wound healing].
Steroids affect skin health and healing, offering new treatment options.
research Corticotropin releasing hormone and the skin
CRH in the skin acts like the body's stress response system, affecting cell behavior and immune activity.
research Dutasteride/finasteride
research Hormonal profiles and the diagnostic utility of serum dihydrotestosterone in polycystic ovary syndrome: a comparative case-control study
High serum DHT levels can help diagnose PCOS.
research Dehydroepiandrosterone- and glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenases in the hair cycle of the rat
research Betamethasone actives cultured amelanotic melanocytes derived from outer root sheath of human hair follicle
Betamethasone activates and increases the growth of certain skin cells from hair follicles.
research Structural basis for the catalysis and inhibition of human steroid 5α‐reductase 2
The research gives new understanding on how human steroid 5α-reductases work and how drugs like finasteride inhibit them, which could help in creating new drugs.
research 5α-reductase activity in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Women with PCOS have higher 5α-reductase activity, which may be linked to insulin resistance.
research Recent advances in oxasteroids chemistry
New methods to make oxasteroids show promise for medical treatments like osteoporosis and breast cancer.
research Total testosterone to dihydrotestosterone ratio assessed by LC-MS/MS predicts a worse metabolic profile not only in PCOS patients
A higher testosterone to dihydrotestosterone ratio may indicate worse metabolic health in women.
research A Preliminary Assessment of Steroid Reproductive Hormones in Archaeological Human Hair Utilizing a Modified Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) Technique
Steroid hormones can be preserved in ancient hair, revealing insights into past health and fertility.
research Clinical biochemistry of dihydrotestosterone
Understanding how DHT works is important for diagnosing and treating hormone-related disorders.
research Steroid induced central serous retinopathy following follicular unit extraction in androgenic alopecia
Steroid use can cause a rare eye condition called central serous retinopathy, which can lead to permanent vision damage.
research Hair Cortisol Concentrations in High- and Low-Stress Mother-Daughter Dyads
High-stress mothers had lower hair cortisol than low-stress mothers, and daughters' cortisol was linked to their stress response.
research Pre-receptor regulation of the androgen receptor
Two enzymes regulate androgen receptor activity, affecting treatments for androgen insufficiency and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research DHEA and frontal fibrosing alopecia: molecular and physiopathological mechanisms
DHEA reduction may be linked to frontal fibrosing alopecia, but more research is needed.
research Effects of Restraint Stress and Allopregnanolone Inhibition on Amphetamine Locomotor Sensitivity
Targeting neurosteroids may help prevent drug relapse.
research 11-oxyandrogen Concentrations in Adolescents With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
Adolescents with PCOS have higher levels of certain androgens, which are linked to hair growth but don't help diagnose PCOS better than testosterone levels.
research Comparison of ovarian electrocautery and oral contraceptives in the treatment of hyperandrogenism in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Oral contraceptives are effective for treating hyperandrogenism, while ovarian electrocautery is better for women with infertility.
research Diagnostic criteria for Satoyoshi syndrome
Both azathioprine and betamethasone treatments effectively regrow hair in alopecia areata, but azathioprine may be safer.
research Gene expression of type 2 17β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in scalp hairs of hirsute women
Hirsute women have lower type 2 17β-HSD enzyme levels, which improve with treatment.
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 MON-024 Steroid Cell Tumor, Not Otherwise Specified; A Rare Case of Hyperandrogenism
A rare ovarian tumor caused high male hormone levels, but surgery fixed it.
research Unexpected refractory hypotension following intradermal minoxidil injection
research Ketoconazole use in the treatment of ovarian hyperandrogenism
Ketoconazole can treat ovarian hyperandrogenism but should be used cautiously with monitoring and birth control.
research 563 CsA-induced hypertrichosis might be caused in part by inhibition of TGF-β2 expression in dermal papilla cells.
The medicine Cyclosporin A might cause excessive hair growth by reducing a protein that controls hair growth.
research Clinical, hormonal and metabolic parameters in women with PCOS with different combined oral contraceptives (containing chlormadinone acetate versus drospirenone)
Both types of oral contraceptives improved symptoms and hormone levels in women with PCOS.
