research Associations between genetically predicted sex and growth hormones and facial aging in the UK Biobank: a two−sample Mendelian randomization study
Regulating certain sex hormones may help delay facial aging.
research Clinical Case Seminar: Postmenopausal androgen excess-challenges in diagnostic work-up and management of ovarian thecosis
The conclusion is that removing both ovaries is the best treatment for excess male hormones in postmenopausal women, with medication as another option, and managing insulin resistance is important for diagnosis and treatment.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Pharmacogenetics of the Androgen Metabolic Pathway
research Allopregnanolone, the active metabolite of progesterone protects against neuronal damage in picrotoxin-induced seizure model in mice
research Production of biologically active oxidized derivatives of finasteride through metabolism byAspergillus nigerculture
Aspergillus niger culture creates two finasteride derivatives with enzyme-inhibiting effects.
research Dienogest versus gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogues for the clinical treatment of endometriosis: an updated meta-analysis
Dienogest is safer and has fewer side effects than GnRH analogues for treating endometriosis.
research Female Antiandrogens
Antiandrogens can treat female hormonal conditions, but environmental ones may harm reproductive health.
research Virilism and Ectopic Expression of HSD17B5 in Mature Cystic Teratoma
A woman's mature cystic teratoma caused her virilization by producing testosterone.
research Reduced metabolites mediate neuroprotective effects of progesterone in the adult rat hippocampus. The synthetic progestin medroxyprogesterone acetate (Provera) is not neuroprotective
Progesterone protects brain cells, but Provera does not.
research Opposite effects of dihydrotestosterone and estradiol on apoptosis in the anterior pituitary gland from male rats
research Connection between granulosa cell pyroptosis and oocyte endoplasmic reticulum stress in a mouse model of polycystic ovary syndrome
Reducing granulosa cell pyroptosis may improve oocyte maturation in PCOS.
research Steroidogenesis in steroid related cancers
Steroid-producing capabilities in certain cancers may contribute to treatment resistance.
research Investigation of the mechanisms of progesterone protection following oxygen–glucose deprivation in organotypic hippocampal slice cultures
Progesterone protects brain cells by converting to allopregnanolone and involving GABAA receptors.
research Implications of neuroimaging for the treatment of epilepsy
Neuroimaging suggests that treatments targeting brain steroids could help control epilepsy, especially types linked to the menstrual cycle.
research Serum 3α-androstanediol-glucuronide is decreased in nonhirsute women with acne vulgaris
Women with acne have lower levels of a specific hormone marker than women without acne.
research Rare and common genetic determinants of metabolic individuality and their effects on human health
Genetic variations greatly affect individual metabolism and can impact health and disease risk.
research Effects of latanoprost on vascular endothelial growth factor protein synthesis in human dermal papilla cells
Latanoprost increases VEGF protein in human cells, which may help hair growth.
research Estrogen hormone therapy stabilizes lateral hairline in transfeminine patients: Implications for facial feminization surgery
Estrogen therapy can help stabilize the hairline in transfeminine individuals.
research Evaluation of Serum G Protein Coupled Estrogen Receptor 1 (GPER 1) Levels in Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia and Telogen Effluvium
Estrogen affects hair growth, and GPER-1 levels might help identify hair loss types.
research 892 Behavior of the two circulating androgens testosterone and DHEA and their main intracellular metabolites in an androgen-sensitive sebocyte cell line
Testosterone affects androgen receptors and lipid storage in cells, while DHEA does not convert to testosterone or affect these receptors in the same way.
research Triclocarban, Triclosan, Bromochlorophene, Chlorophene, and Climbazole Effects on Nuclear Receptors: An in Silico and in Vitro Study
Five preservatives may disrupt hormone function and need more health and environmental risk assessment.
research Metabolic pathways of eicosanoids—derivatives of arachidonic acid and their significance in skin
Eicosanoids are crucial for skin health, and targeting their pathways may help treat skin conditions.
research The validation of estradiol extraction and analysis from hair
Hair can reliably measure average estradiol levels over months in humans and monkeys.
research Implication of allopregnanolone in the antinociceptive effect of N -palmitoylethanolamide in acute or persistent pain
PEA reduces pain by increasing neurosteroid synthesis in the spinal cord.
research Bound on the Risk for M-SVMs
The enzyme system in hair follicles is similar to the liver's and is inhibited by certain substances.
research PMON281 PERSISTENT VIRILIZATION AND VASOMOTOR SYMPTOMS IN A TRANSMAN 5-YEARS POST TESTOSTERONE WITHDRAWAL
A transman experienced lasting virilization symptoms after stopping testosterone, which were resolved with estradiol treatment.
research Testosterone, cytochrome P450, and cardiac hypertrophy
Heart-specific steroid metabolism is crucial in cardiac hypertrophy.
research The Effect of Perinatal Blockade of Androgen Receptors on the Expression of Hypothalamic Estrogen Receptor‐a and Sexual Motivation in Male Rats
Blocking androgen receptors early in life increases estrogen levels and reduces sexual motivation in male rats.
