research Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New steroidal compounds could be effective for treating conditions related to 5α-reductase enzyme activity.
research Alopecia induced by inhalation exposure to phenyl glycidyl ether
High levels of phenyl glycidyl ether vapor caused hair loss in rats.
research Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and Testosterone Concentrations in Human Hair after Chronic DHEA Supplementation
Chronic DHEA supplementation slightly increases testosterone in hair but stays within safe limits.
research Cyproterone acetate for severe hirsutism:results of a double‐blind dose‐ranging study*
Cyproterone acetate at 2mg daily is as effective as higher doses for treating excessive hair growth in women.
research Development of polymeric nanoparticles with controlled drug release for dermal application
Polymeric nanoparticles effectively control corticosteroid release and penetration for skin applications.
research Effect of estrogens on skin aging and the potential role of SERMs
Estrogens help reduce skin aging, and SERMs might offer similar benefits without the risks of hormone therapy.
research Estrogen deprivation effects of endocrine therapy in breast cancer patients: Incidence, management and outcome
Managing side effects of endocrine therapy is crucial to improve adherence and survival in breast cancer patients.
research Opposite effects of dihydrotestosterone and estradiol on apoptosis in the anterior pituitary gland from male rats
research Significant effects of mild endogenous hormonal changes in humans: considerations for low-dose testing.
Small changes in hormones can significantly impact health, showing the importance of sensitive testing for chemicals that disrupt hormones.
research Endocrine disorders and hormonal therapy for adolescent acne
Hormonal therapies are safe and effective for treating acne in female adolescents, with specific treatments for those with endocrine disorders.
research Serum C-19 steroid sulphates in females with clinical hyperandrogenism
Women with hyperandrogenism have higher androgen levels and lower SHBG, which may contribute to conditions like excessive hair growth and early puberty.
research Vitamin E TPGS based transferosomes augmented TAT as a promising delivery system for improved transdermal delivery of raloxifene
The new delivery system improved raloxifene's skin absorption and effectiveness against cancer cells.
research 27593 Contraception progestin type and female pattern hair loss
Newer contraceptives with less androgenic progestins may reduce female hair loss.
research A Comparison of the Relative Efficacy of Antiandrogens for the Treatment of Acne in Hyperandrogenic Women
Most antiandrogen treatments effectively reduce acne in hyperandrogenic women, but finasteride is the least effective.
research Hormonal Therapy for Acne
Hormonal treatments, including birth control and antiandrogens, can effectively treat acne in women.
research Synthesis and structure–activity investigation of iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins for development as androgen receptor radioligands
Scientists created iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins that could potentially be used for imaging prostate cancer. Some versions with specific side-chains showed high potential for this use.
research Simultaneous quantitation of nine hydroxy-androgens and their conjugates in human serum by stable isotope dilution liquid chromatography electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry
A new method accurately measures nine specific hormones in human blood.
research [Determination of finasteride in human plasma by HPLC-MS].
The two finasteride formulations are bioequivalent.
research Adjuvant eflornithine to maintain IPL ‐induced hair reduction in women with facial hirsutism: a randomized controlled trial
Topical eflornithine helps maintain hair reduction after IPL therapy in women with facial hirsutism.
research Preparatory work to support the risk assessment for peri‐ and postmenopausal women taking food supplements containing isolated isoflavones
Isoflavones may help with menopause symptoms but could be risky for women with hormone-sensitive cancers.
research The effects of benzodiazepines on hormones in women with idiopathic hirsutism
Benzodiazepines changed hormone levels but did not affect hair growth in women with idiopathic hirsutism.
research GC-MS determination of steroids related to androgen biosynthesis in human hair with pentafluorophenyldimethylsilyl–trimethylsilyl derivatisation
The method accurately measures certain steroids in human hair, showing different levels in males and females.
research (1R,2S)-4-(2-Cyano-cyclohexyl-oxy)-2-trifluoromethyl-benzonitrile, a potent androgen receptor antagonist for stimulating hair growth and reducing sebum production
The compound (1R,2S)-4-(2-Cyano-cyclohexyl-oxy)-2-trifluoromethyl-benzonitrile can stimulate hair growth and reduce oil production when applied topically.
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 UPDATE ON IDIOPATHIC HIRSUTISM: DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT
The document concludes that combination therapy is most effective for treating excessive hair growth in women with idiopathic hirsutism, and more research is needed to understand the condition.
research Hair Cycle Control by Estrogens: Catagen Induction via Estrogen Receptor (ER)-α Is Checked by ERβ Signaling
Estrogen receptors affect hair growth, with ER beta slowing down the hair cycle changes caused by ER alpha.
research Recommendations of endocrine treatment for patients with gender dysphoria
The document concludes that hormone therapy is essential for treating gender dysphoria, with specific drugs and monitoring protocols recommended for safety and effectiveness.
