840-870 / 1000+ results research METABOLISM OF DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE BY ISOLATED HUMAN HAIR FOLLICLES
Human hair follicles can process steroid hormones like DHEA.
research Hair Restoration in Androgenetic Alopecia: Looking Beyond Minoxidil, Finasteride and Hair Transplantation
Alternative treatments show promise for hair growth beyond traditional methods.
research Finasteride blocks progesterone synthesis in MA-10 Leydig tumor cells.
Finasteride blocks progesterone production in specific tumor cells, potentially causing side effects.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Prostaglandin D2 inhibits hair growth and is elevated in bald scalp of men with androgenetic alopecia.
A substance called prostaglandin D2 is found more in bald scalps and it stops hair from growing. Blocking its receptor could potentially treat hair loss.
research Cultured dermal papilla cells from androgen-dependent human hair follicles (e.g. beard) contain more androgen receptors than those from non-balding areas of scalp
Beard hair follicles have more androgen receptors than non-balding scalp hair follicles.
research THE FIBROBLAST AS A MODEL FOR ANDROGEN RESISTANT STATES
Fibroblasts help understand androgen resistance at the cellular level.
research Androgens in postmenopausal women
Testosterone in older women can increase bone density, muscle mass, fat mass, improve memory, and boost libido, but may cause nipple color changes.
research Thyroid hormones and androgens differentially regulate gene expression in testes and ovaries of sexually mature Silurana tropicalis
Thyroid hormones and androgens affect gene expression in frog reproductive organs differently between males and females.
research Male Pattern Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgens contribute to common male hair loss; more research needed for hair growth medication.
research Expanding the therapeutic versatility of clacosterone
Clascoterone cream could be used for other skin conditions affected by hormones.
research Novel inhibitors of 5α-reductase
New research is needed to create better drugs that block the enzyme responsible for conditions like male baldness and prostate enlargement.
research Comparative transcriptome profiling provides new insights into mechanisms of androgenetic alopecia progression
AGA progression involves increased lipid synthesis, electron transport, and hair follicle miniaturization.
research Role of genetics and sex steroid hormones in male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss: An update of what we now know
Genetics and hormones play a role in male and female hair loss, but more research is needed to fully understand it.

Dermatologists recommend oral dutasteride for male hair loss, low-dose oral minoxidil for female hair loss, and a multidisciplinary approach for young patients, with caution during pregnancy.
research 7696 Ovarian Steroid Cell Tumor Presenting As Non-classical Adrenal Hyperplasia
Ovarian steroid cell tumors can mimic adrenal hyperplasia, and surgery can normalize hormone levels.
research Cellular actions of testosterone in vascular cells: Mechanism independent of aromatization to estradiol
Testosterone affects vascular cells directly without converting to estradiol.
research Discovery of Natural Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors
Natural herbal compounds might treat certain medical conditions by reducing DHT levels, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Evaluation of New Pregnane Derivatives as 5.ALPHA.-Reductase Inhibitor.
