Research
300-330 / 1000+ results research GC-MS determination of steroids related to androgen biosynthesis in human hair with pentafluorophenyldimethylsilyl–trimethylsilyl derivatisation
The method accurately measures certain steroids in human hair, showing different levels in males and females.
research Androgens in women
Androgens play a complex role in skin conditions like acne and hair loss in women, and normal blood levels don't always show true androgen status.
research Elevated Free Testosterone Levels in Women With Acne
Some women with acne have higher levels of free testosterone, which might suggest using hormonal treatments for acne.
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 Neuroimmunoregulation of Androgens in the Adrenal Gland and the Skin
Cytokines and neuropeptides are key in controlling androgen levels, affecting skin and hair conditions.
research A Comparison of the Hormonal Profile of Early Androgenetic Alopecia in Men With the Phenotypic Equivalent of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome in Women
Men with early hair loss have similar hormone levels to women with PCOS, possibly increasing risk of obesity and heart issues.
research Steroid Sulfatase Deficiency and Androgen Activation Before and After Puberty
In STSD patients, the body compensates for low androgen levels by increasing another enzyme's activity.
research Biosynthesis of Dihydrotestosterone by a Pathway that Does Not Require Testosterone as an Intermediate in the SZ95 Sebaceous Gland Cell Line
Dihydrotestosterone can be made from dehydroepiandrosterone in skin cells without needing testosterone.
research Mechanisms of Action of Dehydroepiandrosterone
DHEA affects various tissues by interacting with multiple receptors and can be converted into sex hormones.
research Intracrine and Myotrophic Roles of 5α-Reductase and Androgens
Muscles can make their own androgens, which may help muscle growth.
research Differential Diagnosis of Hyperandrogenism in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The conclusion is that accurately identifying the cause of high androgen levels in women with PCOS is crucial and requires specific tests.
research Neuroactive gonadal drugs for neuroprotection in male and female models of Parkinson's disease
Some hormone-related drugs may protect brain cells in Parkinson's disease differently in men and women.
research Androgenic Hormone Profile of Adult Women with Acne
Over half of the adult women with acne in the study had higher than normal levels of male hormones, especially DHEA.
research Virilizing Adrenocortical Oncocytoma in a Child: A Case Report
A rare adrenal tumor in a 14-year-old girl caused male-like symptoms and was successfully removed.
research PLASMA C19 STEROID SULPHATE LEVELS AND INDICES OF ANDROGEN BIOAVAILABILITY IN FEMALE PATTERN ANDROGENIC ALOPECIA
Women with female pattern hair loss have higher levels of certain androgens, suggesting increased androgen exposure to hair follicles.
research Premature Adrenarche
Early adrenal gland maturation in young children can be normal, but other serious conditions should be ruled out first.
research Metabolism of androgens by isolated human beard hair follicles
Human beard hair follicles change testosterone into other related hormones, but don't much change androstenedione into testosterone.
research Studies on changes in the concentration of serum adrenal androgens in pubertal twins
Adrenal androgens are important for puberty and are influenced by genetics.
research Unchanged androgen-binding properties of sex hormone-binding globulin in male patients with liver cirrhosis
SHBG binding properties are unchanged in male liver cirrhosis patients.
research Endocrine evaluation of hirsutism
Women with excessive male-pattern hair growth should get a full hormone check-up to find and treat any underlying issues, considering both medical and emotional aspects.
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 Plasma Androgens in Children and Adolescents
Normal androgen levels need ACTH, and different mechanisms control adrenarche and gonadarche.
research LACK OF EFFECT OF OESTROGENS ON ADRENAL ANDROGEN SECRETION IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WITH A COMMENT ON OESTROGENS AND PUBIC HAIR GROWTH
Oestrogen does not affect adrenal androgen levels in children and adolescents.
research Expression of steroidogenic enzymes in human sebaceous glands
Human sebaceous glands contain enzymes that affect androgen production and may influence sebum production and acne.
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.
research Hormonal profile in Indian men with premature androgenetic alopecia
Premature balding in some men may be linked to altered hormones, but it's not the male equivalent to polycystic ovary syndrome or metabolic syndrome.
