research GABAAreceptor modulation by neurosteroids in models of temporal lobe epilepsies
Neurosteroids change how GABA_A receptors work in the brain, which could be important for treating temporal lobe epilepsy.
research A Prospective Randomized Trial Comparing Low Dose Flutamide, Finasteride, Ketoconazole, and Cyproterone Acetate-Estrogen Regimens in the Treatment of Hirsutism
Cyproterone acetate-estrogen most effective for hirsutism, but consider side effects and patient needs.
research Sex differences in steroid levels and steroidogenesis in the nervous system: Physiopathological role
Men and women have different levels and production of brain steroids, which may affect their risk for certain brain disorders.
research Advances in male hormone substitution therapy
New treatments for low male hormones improved sexual function and mood but had unclear risks, especially for older men.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research Expression of type 1 5α-reductase and metabolism of testosterone in reconstructed human epidermis (SkinEthic®): a new model for screening skin-targeted androgen modulators
The study created a new method to test drugs that affect hormone processing in skin.
research Clinical biochemistry of dihydrotestosterone
Understanding how DHT works is important for diagnosing and treating hormone-related disorders.
research TMT-Based Proteomic Explores the Influence of DHEA on the Osteogenic Differentiation of hBMSCs
DHEA boosts bone cell growth and differentiation in elderly stem cells.
research Neuroactive steroids induce changes in fetal sheep behavior during normoxic and asphyxic states
Neurosteroids help protect fetal brains from asphyxia damage.
research Development and Evaluation of Niosomal Gel for TransdermalApplication of steroidal API
The niosomal gel effectively delivers testosterone through the skin with fewer side effects.
research Hypertrichosis and topical corticosteroid use
Prolonged use of topical corticosteroids can cause excessive hair growth.
research HSD3B1 Genotypes Conferring Adrenal-Restrictive and Adrenal-Permissive Phenotypes in Prostate Cancer and Beyond
Certain HSD3B1 gene types are linked to worse prostate cancer outcomes and affect treatment response and other health conditions.
research Sexual dimorphism following in vitro ischemia in the response to neurosteroids and mechanisms of injury
Male tissue has more cell death than female tissue after ischemia, and some neurosteroids only protect female cells.
research Structure of human steroid 5α-reductase 2 with the anti-androgen drug finasteride
Finasteride irreversibly affects human steroid 5α-reductase 2, providing insight into its catalytic mechanism and disease-related mutations.
research Androgens trigger different growth responses in genetically identical human hair follicles in organ culture that reflect their epigenetic diversity in life
Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.
research EFFECTS OF STEROID HORMONES ON DEVELOPING MOUSE SKIN IN VITRO
Cortisol and corticosterone thin mouse skin and regress hair follicles, while testosterone promotes skin and hair development.
research Topical Finasteride Therapy in Hirsutism
Topical finasteride may help treat facial hirsutism in women.
research Epitestosterone—an endogenous antiandrogen?
Epitestosterone may act as a weak antiandrogen and can inhibit an enzyme involved in testosterone metabolism.
research LACK OF EFFECT OF OESTROGENS ON ADRENAL ANDROGEN SECRETION IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WITH A COMMENT ON OESTROGENS AND PUBIC HAIR GROWTH
Oestrogen does not affect adrenal androgen levels in children and adolescents.
research Pharmacological Profile of 9,11-Dehydrocortexolone 17α-Butyrate (CB-03-04), a New Androgen Antagonist with Antigonadotropic Activity
CB-03-04 shows promise as a treatment for prostate issues due to its strong anti-androgen effects.
research Androgen metabolism in hirsute patients treated with cyproterone acetate
Cyproterone acetate effectively reduced hair growth in hirsute patients by lowering androgen levels and altering androgen metabolism.
research Distinctive features of steroid hormone metabolism in female patients with androgenic alopecia
Women with hair thinning have disrupted steroid hormone levels, but this doesn't often show as other health issues. More research is needed on hormone balance in this condition.
research Membrane androgen receptors may mediate androgen reinforcement
Androgen self-administration might be controlled by membrane receptors, not nuclear ones.
research Studies of androgen metabolism and action in cultured hair and skin cells
Androgens don't directly affect hair cell growth or protein production.
research An Open Randomized Comparative Study of an Oral Contraceptive Containing Ethinyl Estradiol and Cyproterone Acetate with and without the GnRH Analogue Goserelin in the Long-Term Treatment of Hirsutism
The oral contraceptive alone is the preferred treatment for hirsutism, as adding the GnRH analog showed no significant benefit.
research Inflammation dynamically regulates steroid hormone metabolism and action within macrophages in rheumatoid arthritis
Inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis increases steroid activation in cells, reducing inflammation.
research Exploring the Impact of the Microbiome on Neuroactive Steroid Levels in Germ-Free Animals
Gut microbes significantly affect brain steroid levels.
research Effects of Sex Steroid Deprivation/Administration on Hair Growth and Skin Sebum Production in Transsexual Males and Females
Hormone treatments in transsexual individuals reduce hair growth and oil production in male-to-females and increase them in female-to-males.
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.
