Sex steroids, especially progesterone, can slow down the growth of mouse melanoma cells.
research Dihydrotestosterone induces arterial stiffening in female mice
Dihydrotestosterone makes arteries stiffer in female mice by reducing estrogen receptor expression.
research Management of Sexual Dysfunction in Postmenopausal Breast Cancer Patients Taking Adjuvant Aromatase Inhibitor Therapy
Non-hormonal treatments should be used first for sexual dysfunction in postmenopausal breast cancer patients on aromatase inhibitors, with hormones as a second option.
research Progesterone Promotes Anti-Anxiety/Depressant-like Behavior and Trophic Actions of BDNF in the Hippocampus of Female Nuclear Progesterone Receptor, but Not 5α-Reductase, Knockout Mice
Progesterone reduces anxiety and depression in female mice by increasing BDNF in the brain, needing 5α-reduction and estradiol.
research Pubertal hormones increase hippocampal expression of α4βδ GABAA receptors
Hormones during puberty increase certain receptors in the brain, and this change is influenced by estrogen levels.
research Immunological and Metabolic Causes of Infertility in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
PCOS causes infertility mainly due to hormonal imbalances, insulin resistance, and chronic inflammation.
research The Impact of Gender Affirming Hormone Therapy on Physical Performance
Gender-affirming hormone therapy improves physical performance in trans men to the level of cisgender men, while in trans women, it increases fat mass and decreases muscle mass, with no advantage in physical performance after 2 years.
research New approaches to the treatment of osteoporosis
Future osteoporosis treatments should focus on increasing bone growth, with many promising options available.
research Maximizing surgical outcomes with gender affirming hormone therapy in gender affirmation surgery
Gender affirming hormone therapy improves outcomes in gender affirmation surgery.
research Gender Differences in the Regulation of Blood Pressure
Men generally have higher blood pressure than premenopausal women, but postmenopausal women's blood pressure can surpass men's, and hormone therapy doesn't significantly help.
research Comparison of cyproterone acetate plus ethinyl estradiol and finasteride in the treatment of hirsutism
Cyproterone acetate plus ethinyl estradiol is generally more effective in treating hirsutism, but consider side effects and patient characteristics.
research Intracrinology and The Skin
DHEA stimulates skin oil glands and could help postmenopausal women, with potential for acne and excessive hair growth treatments.
research Stem cells and aberrant signaling of molecular systems in skin aging
Skin aging is caused by stem cell damage and can potentially be delayed with treatments like antioxidants and stem cell therapy.
research Progesterone-induced stimulation of mammary tumorigenesis is due to the progesterone metabolite, 5α-dihydroprogesterone (5αP) and can be suppressed by the 5α-reductase inhibitor, finasteride
Progesterone byproduct 5αP stimulates mammary tumor growth, but finasteride can suppress it.
research Exogenous Testosterone Alone or With Finasteride Does Not Improve Measurements of Cognition in Healthy Older Men With Low Serum Testosterone
Testosterone with or without finasteride doesn't improve thinking skills in older men with low testosterone.
research Synthesis and structure–activity studies of side-chain derivatized arylhydantoins for investigation as androgen receptor radioligands
The nature of the side chain in RU 58841 derivatives greatly affects its AR affinity, with the N-(iodopropenyl) derivative 13 showing the highest AR binding affinity, suggesting its potential for developing high-affinity radioiodinated AR radioligands.
research Vitamin D and androgen receptor-targeted therapy for triple-negative breast cancer
Targeting vitamin D and androgen receptors may effectively treat triple-negative breast cancer, especially with chemotherapy.
research Oxidative Activity of the Type 2 Isozyme of 17β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (17β-HSD) Predominates in Human Sebaceous Glands
The enzyme 17β-HSD type 2 mainly performs oxidation in human sebaceous glands, which may help protect against acne.
