research Dihydrotestosterone Stimulates 5a-Reductase Activity in Pubic Skin Fibroblasts*
Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
research Matriptase activation and shedding with HAI-1 is induced by steroid sex hormones in human prostate cancer cells, but not in breast cancer cells
Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.
research The biochemical and phenotypic characterization of females homozygous for 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency.
Females with 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency have less body hair, no acne, normal fertility, and delayed menarche.
research Molecular Genetic and Endocrine Mechanisms of Hair Growth
Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.
research Estrogens and the hair follicle. Ostrogene und der Haarfollikel
Estrogens generally inhibit hair growth and improve skin quality, but their exact effects on hair follicles are complex and not fully understood.
research Sex Steroids, Precursors, and Metabolite Deficiencies in Men With Isolated Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism and Panhypopituitarism: A GCMS-Based Comparative Study
Men with isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism have partial steroid deficiencies, while those with panhypopituitarism have severe deficiencies.
research Ketoconazole Therapy for Women with Acne and/or Hirsutism
Ketoconazole reduced hair growth and improved acne in women, but caused side effects needing careful monitoring.
research Estrogen-Androgen Imbalance in Patients with Hirsutism and Amenorrhea
Low estrogen and high testosterone may cause excessive hair growth in women.
research Estrogens and Human Scalp Hair Growth—Still More Questions than Answers
The effects of estrogen on human hair growth are unclear and need more research.

Using β-cyclodextrin derivatives improves the solubility and bioavailability of steroidal drugs.
research Hormonal status of male reproductive system: androgens and estrogens in the testis and epididymis. In vivo and in vitro approaches.
Androgens and estrogens are crucial for male reproductive health, affecting hormone levels and tissue function.
research Androgens and Antiandrogens
Male hormones, or androgens, affect women's health in areas like mood and bone density, and hormone replacement therapy using antiandrogenic progestogens can improve mood disorders and alertness in menopausal women.
research Spironolactone Therapy for Hirsutism in a Hyperandrogenic Woman
Spironolactone may help reduce excessive hair growth in women with high male hormone levels.
research Effects of Prenatal Treatment with Antiandrogens on Luteinizing Hormone Secretion and Sex Steroid Concentrations in Adult Spotted Hyenas, Crocuta crocuta1
Prenatal antiandrogen treatment altered hormone levels in adult spotted hyenas, affecting males and females differently.
research The effects of epilation and hormones on the activity of rat hair follicles
Epilation doesn't affect rat hair growth; thyroxine speeds it up, while estradiol slows it down.
research Aromatase deficiency in a male patient - Case report and review of the literature.
A male with aromatase deficiency improved bone health with estradiol treatment.
research Metformin influence on hormone levels at birth, in PCOS mothers and their newborns
Metformin taken during pregnancy increases SHBG in newborns but doesn't change other hormone levels in mothers or babies.
research Skin permeation of different steroid hormones from polymeric coated liposomal formulations
Polymers increased skin permeation and stability of steroid hormones in liposomal formulations.
research Binding of Steroid Hormones by the 105,000 x g Supernatant Fraction from Homogenates of Rat Skin and Variations during the Hair Cycle
Steroid hormone binding in rat skin varies with pH, heat, and hair cycle phases.
research Retrospective evaluation of sex hormones and steroid hormone intermediates in dogs with alopecia
Most dogs with alopecia had higher than normal levels of certain hormones, but hair loss might not always be linked to these hormone changes.
research The quantification of reproductive hormones in the hair of captive adult brown bears and their application as indicators of sex and reproductive state
Measuring reproductive hormones in brown bear hair could help identify their sex and reproductive state, but better collection methods or lab techniques are needed.
research Neo-synthesis of estrogenic or androgenic neurosteroids determine whether long-term potentiation or depression is induced in hippocampus of male rat
DHT is needed for long-term depression, while E2 is needed for full long-term potentiation in male rat brains.
research Differing responses of human follicular and nonfollicular scalp cells in an in vitro wound healing assay: Effects of estrogen on vascular endothelial growth factor secretion
Estrogen affects scalp cell types differently, enhancing some wound healing processes.
research Melanocyte and gonad activity as potential severity modifying factors in C3H/HeJ mouse alopecia areata
Gonadal hormones significantly affect the severity of alopecia areata in mice.
research In Vitro Main Pathways of Steroid Action in Cultured Hair Follicle Cells: Vascular Approach
