research Overexpression of aldo-keto reductase 1C3 (AKR1C3) in LNCaP cells diverts androgen metabolism towards testosterone resulting in resistance to the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride
Too much AKR1C3 enzyme causes resistance to finasteride by increasing testosterone.
research Dihydrotestosterone-induced hair regrowth inhibition by activating androgen receptor in C57BL6 mice simulates androgenetic alopecia
DHT stops hair regrowth in mice, similar to human hair loss.
research Temporal expression and steroidal regulation of piRNA pathway genes (mael, piwi, vasa) during Silurana (Xenopus) tropicalis embryogenesis and early larval development
The piRNA pathway genes are crucial in early development and may influence sex differentiation through hormone regulation.
research Prostaglandin D2-Mediated DP2 and AKT Signal Regulate the Activation of Androgen Receptors in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
PGD2 increases androgen receptor activity in hair cells, which could be targeted to treat hair loss.
research Safety aspects of androgen treatment with 5α-dihydrotestosterone
DHT is a strong androgen that may pose less risk to the prostate compared to testosterone.
research Antiandrogen therapy for androgenetic alopecia
Antiandrogen therapy helps treat genetic hair loss.
research Oral Testosterone With and Without Concomitant Inhibition of 5α-Reductase by Dutasteride in Hypogonadal Men for 28 Days
Taking oral testosterone with or without dutasteride increases testosterone levels and could be an effective treatment for low testosterone.
research Transcriptomic profiling in Silurana tropicalis testes exposed to finasteride
Finasteride affects frog testes by increasing testosterone, decreasing 5α-DHT, and impacting genes related to reproduction and other functions.
research TR3 is preferentially expressed by bulge epithelial stem cells in human hair follicles
TR3 is mainly found in hair follicle stem cells and may be involved in hair loss.
research Androgens downregulate BMP2 impairing the inductive role of dermal papilla cells on hair follicle stem cells differentiation
Androgens reduce BMP2, which weakens the ability of certain cells to help hair stem cells become different types of cells.
research Hormone-induced aberrations in electromagnetic adhesion signaling as a developmental factor of androgenetic alopecia
Hormones cause hair loss by affecting cell growth and weakening cell attraction.
research 5α‐reductase inhibitors: Evaluation of their potential confounding effect on GC‐C‐IRMS doping analysis
5α-reductase inhibitors can interfere with doping tests by masking banned substances.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Overview
AGA is a genetic, hormonal hair loss treated with finasteride, minoxidil, and supplements, but new compounds are being developed.
research The AR/miR-221/IGF-1 pathway mediates the pathogenesis of androgenetic alopecia
A specific pathway involving AR, miR-221, and IGF-1 plays a key role in causing common hair loss.
research Single-cell transcriptomics reveals the natural product Shi-Bi-Man promotes hair regeneration by activating the FGF pathway in dermal papilla cells
Shi-Bi-Man helps hair regrowth by activating the FGF pathway in cells.
research Androgenic modulation of arterial baroreceptor dysfunction and neuroinflammation in endotoxic male rats
Testosterone affects blood pressure control and inflammation in male rats with endotoxic shock, and blocking certain hormones may help treat it.
research Androgen Receptor Ligands: Agonists and Antagonists
Different substances that activate or block the androgen receptor can affect male development and treat conditions like prostate cancer.
research Photobiomodulation mitigates DHT-induced apoptosis in dermal papilla cells via mitochondrial rescue and Wnt/TGF-β/BMP signaling modulation
Photobiomodulation helps protect hair follicle cells from damage caused by DHT.
research Effect and mechanism of Docosahexaenoic acid on the proliferation of dermal papilla cells
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) may help hair growth by promoting dermal papilla cell proliferation.
research Serum androgens and prostate-specific antigen levels in androgenetic alopecia: is there a difference between frontal and vertex baldness?
Vertex baldness has higher DHT levels than frontal baldness, but testosterone and PSA levels are similar.
research Association of Dihydrotestosterone with Crowing Complexity Traits in Kokok Balenggek Roosters
Higher dihydrotestosterone levels reduce crowing complexity in Kokok Balenggek roosters.
research Ferulic acid promotes hair growth via estrogen receptor alpha activation in cultured human dermal papilla cells
Ferulic acid may help hair grow by activating certain receptors in cells.
research Hypoxia-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Exosomes Downregulate CXCL12 and Upregulate IL-10 Expression in a Murine Model of Androgenic Alopecia
EH-MSCs may help treat hair loss by reducing inflammation.
research MitoQ upregulates CYP19A1 to protect dermal papilla cells from DHT-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis in androgenetic alopecia
MitoQ helps protect hair cells from damage in hair loss by boosting a protective enzyme.
