Research
930-960 / 1000+ results research Biochemical Mechanisms Regulating Human Hair Growth
Androgens shorten hair growth phases, causing finer hair and more severe hair loss in men.
research Relations between sex hormone level and characters of hair and skin in healthy young men
Higher androgen levels do not cause baldness in men.
research Activation of Hair Cell Growth Factors by Linoleic Acid in Malva verticillata Seed
Linoleic acid from Malva verticillata seeds may help treat hair loss by promoting hair cell growth and blocking baldness signals.
research High circulating oestrone and low testosterone correlate with adverse clinical outcomes in men with advanced liver disease
Men with advanced liver disease and high oestrone and low testosterone levels have worse health outcomes.
research Synthesis and biological evaluation of 3-tetrazolo steroidal analogs: Novel class of 5α-reductase inhibitors
3-tetrazolo steroidal analogs can strongly inhibit the enzyme linked to hair loss.
research Cause of Androgenic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness may be caused by scalp pressure on hair follicles, which increases with age and leads to a cycle of hair loss. This process is not directly determined by genes.
research Development of a new gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) methodology for the evaluation of 5α-reductase activity
A new method was developed to accurately measure enzyme activity related to prostate health.
research A Review on Steroidal 5α-Reductase Inhibitors for Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
New treatments for enlarged prostate are being developed, some of which may be more effective than current medications.
research Isosexual Precocious Pseudopuberty Secondary to a Testosterone-Secreting Leydig Cell Testicular Tumour: True Isosexual Development Early After Surgery*
A boy's early puberty caused by a testicular tumor returned to normal after surgery.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
Male pattern baldness involves hormone-related hair thinning, shorter hair, and inflammation.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors, Chemical and Clinical Models
Researchers developed a model to predict how well certain compounds can block an enzyme related to hair loss and prostate issues, suggesting a 50 mg dose of finasteride might be effective based on lab and body data.
research 5α‐Reductase Inhibitors
Finasteride effectively treats enlarged prostate and male baldness, improves symptoms of hirsutism in women, but doesn't work for acne, and may delay prostate cancer progression with few side effects.
research Is idiopathic hirsutism idiopathic?
Idiopathic hirsutism may be linked to increased enzyme activity.
research Metabolic, Behavioral, and Reproductive Effects of Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy in an Obese Rat Model of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Vertical sleeve gastrectomy improved metabolism, behavior, and reproduction in obese rats with PCOS.
research Saturable Binding of Finasteride to Steroid 5α-reductase as Determinant of Nonlinear Pharmacokinetics
Finasteride's effect on hair loss and prostate enlargement depends on its binding to an enzyme, with maximum impact at 0.2 mg dose.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss
Over 50% of women over 50 experience hair loss, with minoxidil being the only proven effective treatment.
research Oral Contraceptives as Anti-Androgenic Treatment of Acne
Birth control pills can help reduce mild to moderate acne in women.
research The Organ-Maintained Human Sebaceous Gland
Human sebaceous glands can grow normally for a week without certain growth factors, and adding estrogen reduces their oil production without affecting cell growth.
research Hirsutism, its pathogenesis
Hirsutism in females is caused by high male hormones or sensitive hair follicles.
research Androgen binding to cytosol and nuclei of hamster sebaceous glands
Dihydrotestosterone specifically binds to hamster sebaceous glands, with a higher affinity than testosterone.
research What Ages Hair?
Hair aging and loss are caused by genetics, hormones, environment, and grooming, with treatments like minoxidil effective for certain types of hair loss.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors (5ARIs) and Male Reproduction
5α-Reductase inhibitors can negatively affect male sexual function and, in some cases, significantly reduce sperm count, but these effects may be reversible.
research α-spinasterol from Melandrium firmum attenuates benign prostatic hyperplasia in a rat model
α-spinasterol from Melandrium firmum can help reduce prostate enlargement.
research Biological activity of novel progesterone derivatives having a bulky ester side chains at C-3
The more lipophilic the progesterone derivative, the better it binds to androgen receptors and has antiandrogenic effects.
research [Hormonal interaction and hair growth].
Hormones, especially DHT, affect hair loss and growth, and targeting specific enzymes may help treat hair loss.
research 5alpha-reductase inhibitors - a new hope in dermatology?
Finasteride shows promise for treating hair loss and excessive hair growth, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness and safety.
research Circulating Androgen Concentrations and Risk of Incident Heart Failure in Older Men: The Cardiovascular Health Study
Lower testosterone levels may increase heart failure risk in older men.
research Cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside suppresses DHT-induced dermal papilla cell senescence by modulating p38-dependent ER-mitochondria contacts
Cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside may help treat a common form of hair loss by protecting cells against aging and improving cell function.
research Vanillic Acid Stimulates Anagen Signaling via the PI3K/Akt/ β-Catenin Pathway in Dermal Papilla Cells
Vanillic acid from wheat bran may promote hair growth by activating certain cell pathways and reversing hormone-related hair loss.
