Research
270-300 / 1000+ results research Lack of androgen receptor transcriptional activity in human keratinocytes
Human keratinocytes do not naturally respond to androgens.
research The Basic Science of Hair Biology
Hair disorders are caused by a complex mix of biology, genetics, hormones, and environmental factors, affecting hair growth and leading to conditions like alopecia.
research Key targets of hormonal treatment of prostate cancer. Part 2: the androgen receptor and 5α-reductase
Blocking DHT production more strongly may help control advanced prostate cancer and improve quality of life.
research Hormonal Profile of Men with Premature Balding
Men with early balding often have hormone levels similar to women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Novel agents for the treatment of alopecia
New treatments for hair loss show promise, especially finasteride for men and a stronger minoxidil formula.
research Incidence of Increased Androgen Levels in Patients Suffering from Acne
Many acne patients have high androgen levels, which may lead to PCOD, but treatments like oral contraceptives and antiandrogens can help.
research Bone density is normal in male rats treated with finasteride.
Finasteride doesn't affect bone density in male rats.
research Studies of androgen metabolism and action in cultured hair and skin cells
Androgens don't directly affect hair cell growth or protein production.
research 1 Androgens
Testosterone is made by Leydig cells, is active when not bound to proteins, and works by binding to receptors in muscles and other tissues.
research Hormone-dependent medial preoptic/lumbar spinal cord/autonomic coordination supporting male sexual behaviors
Testosterone and its byproducts help support male sexual behavior through different pathways in the brain and body.
research Hedonic sensitivity to natural rewards is affected by prenatal stress in a sex-dependent manner
Prenatal stress changes how male and female rats enjoy rewards differently, linked to sex hormones.
research Ketocazole as an adjunct to finasteride in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia in men
Ketoconazole shampoo with finasteride improves hair density in men with hair loss.
research Estimating the Contribution of the Prostate to Blood Dihydrotestosterone
The normal human prostate does not significantly affect blood DHT levels.
research Hormonal prevention of prostate cancer
Suppressing certain hormones might help prevent prostate cancer.
research Current understanding of androgenetic alopecia. Part I: etiopathogenesis.
Androgenetic alopecia is common hair loss due to genetics and DHT.
research Finasteride is the main inhibitor of 5α-reductase activity in microdissected dermal papillae of human hair follicles
Finasteride potentially treats hair loss by reducing DHT production.
research 12 Treatment of hirsutism with 5α-reductase inhibitors
New compounds may soon be tested to treat excessive hair growth in women.
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 Clascoterone: First Approval
Clascoterone cream was approved in the USA for treating acne in people aged 12 and older.
research Hair growth promoting effect of white wax and policosanol from white wax on the mouse model of testosterone-induced hair loss
White wax and policosanol from white wax effectively reduced hair loss and promoted hair growth in mice better than a known hair growth drug.
research The mRNA for Protease Nexin-1 is Expressed in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and its Level is Affected by Androgen
Human skin cells contain Protease Nexin-1, and male hormones can decrease its levels, potentially affecting hair growth.
research The Androgenic Alopecia Protective Effects of Forsythiaside-A and the Molecular Regulation in a Mouse Model
Forsythiaside-A, a natural substance, can protect against hair loss and is more effective than current treatments, potentially making it a good option for hair loss treatment.
research Roles of Type 10 17beta-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase in Intracrinology and Metabolism of Isoleucine and Fatty Acids
This enzyme helps metabolize fatty acids and isoleucine, and could be key in treating neurological diseases and certain cancers.
research Age-related changes in brain and pituitary 5α-reductase with finasteride (Proscar) treatment
Finasteride affects prostate weights and pituitary activity differently with age.
research Altered brain and pituitary androgen metabolism by prenatal, perinatal or pre- and postnatal finasteride, flutamide or dihydrotestosterone treatment in juvenile male rats
Treatment during development affects hormone balance and sexual behavior in male rats.
research Inhibitory activities of some traditional Chinese herbs against testosterone 5α-reductase and effects of Cacumen platycladi on hair re-growth in testosterone-treated mice
