research Testosterone Reduces Tight Junction Complexity and Down-regulates Expression of Claudin-4 and Occludin in the Endometrium in Ovariectomized, Sex-steroid Replacement Rats
Testosterone makes the connections in the uterus lining simpler and lowers certain protein levels, which might lead to infertility.
research Gender Differences in Production and Circulating Levels of Sex Hormones and Their Impact on Aging Skin
Men and women experience skin aging differently due to changes in sex hormone levels with age.
research Gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist (nafarelin) test to differentiate gonadotropin deficiency from constitutionally delayed puberty in teen-age boys--a clinical research center study.
The nafarelin test can reliably distinguish between gonadotropin deficiency and delayed puberty in teenage boys.
research The use of biodegradable microneedle patches to increase penetration of topical steroid for prurigo nodularis.
Biodegradable microneedle patches help topical steroids work better for prurigo nodularis.
research The serum evaluation of sex hormones including DHEAs, DHT, testosterone in oral lichen planus patients
Sex hormones do not cause oral lichen planus.
research The Serum Evaluation of Sex Hormones Including DHEAs, DHT, Testosterone in Oral Lichen Planus Patients
Oral lichen planus is not linked to sex hormone levels.
research Neuroactive Steroid Levels are Modified in Cerebrospinal Fluid and Plasma of Post‐Finasteride Patients Showing Persistent Sexual Side Effects and Anxious/Depressive Symptomatology
Finasteride use changes brain chemicals, causing lasting sexual issues and anxiety/depression.
research Patients treated for male pattern hair with finasteride show, after discontinuation of the drug, altered levels of neuroactive steroids in cerebrospinal fluid and plasma
Finasteride affects brain and blood steroids, causing lasting sexual and emotional side effects.
research Sex hormone–binding globulin and risk of hyperglycemia in patients with androgenetic alopecia
People with hair loss have higher risk of high blood sugar and diabetes, and lower levels of a specific hormone.
research Sex hormones modulate pathogenic processes in experimental traumatic brain injury
Sex hormones affect brain injury differently in males and females.
research Advances in male hormone substitution therapy
New treatments for low male hormones improved sexual function and mood but had unclear risks, especially for older men.
research Cross-sex hormone therapy for gender dysphoria
Cross-sex hormone therapy is important for managing gender dysphoria and requires careful monitoring and healthcare provider education.
research Morpho‐regulation in diverse chicken feather formation: Integrating branching modules and sex hormone‐dependent morpho‐regulatory modules
Sex hormones, especially estradiol, can change chicken feather shapes and colors.
research Correlation Between Nongenomic Action of C19-Steroids and COVID-19 Severity
Low testosterone may increase COVID-19 severity in men.
research Effect of flutamide and two novel synthetic steroids on GABA, glutamine and some oxidative stress markers in rat brain and prostate
Flutamide and a new synthetic steroid affected brain and prostate chemicals and showed potential for treating androgen-related conditions and epilepsy.
research Crystal structure of steroid reductase SRD5A reveals conserved steroid reduction mechanism
The structure of SRD5A reveals how it reduces steroids, aiding drug design for related health conditions.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research Low sex hormone-binding globulin is associated with low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and metabolic syndrome in women with PCOS
Women with PCOS who have low SHBG are more likely to have low good cholesterol and metabolic syndrome.
research Health consequences of anabolic steroids: a sexual-medicine perspective
Anabolic steroid abuse can cause sexual, fertility, and health problems.
research Predisposing and Overall Effects of Reproductive Hormones on Breast Cancer: A Review
Reproductive hormones play a crucial role in breast cancer development and treatment challenges.
research Canine Sertoli cell tumor: anti-Müllerian hormone, inhibin B, and estrone sulphate
The dog's skin condition improved after removing a tumor that was causing hormone imbalances.
research Three-Month Treatment With a Long-Acting Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist of Patients With Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: Effects on Tissue Androgen Concentration, 5α-Reductase Activity and Androgen Receptor Content*
A three-month treatment with a GnRH agonist significantly lowered androgen levels and 5α-reductase activity in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Structure of human steroid 5α-reductase 2 with the anti-androgen drug finasteride
Finasteride irreversibly affects human steroid 5α-reductase 2, providing insight into its catalytic mechanism and disease-related mutations.
research Rat steroid 5α-reductase kinetic characteristics: Extreme pH-dependency of the type II isozyme in prostate and epididymis homogenates
The activity of a specific rat enzyme in the prostate and epididymis is highly dependent on the acidity level.
research A role for steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 in vascular remodeling during endometrial decidualization
