research Aldo-Keto Reductase (AKR) 1C3 inhibitors: a patent review
The review suggests that while many AKR1C3 inhibitors show promise for treating certain cancers, more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness in humans.

Research
150-180 / 1000+ resultsresearch Angiogenic factor-driven improvement of refractory thin endometrium with autologous platelet-rich plasma intrauterine infusion in frozen embryo transfer cycles
Platelet-rich plasma infusion improved pregnancy outcomes for women with thin endometrium.
research Extrarenal Expression of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3-1α-Hydroxylase1
The enzyme for activating vitamin D is found in many body tissues, not just the kidneys.
research Adrenal steroid precursors exert potent androgenic action in the hamster sebaceous glands of flank organs and ears.
Certain adrenal hormones can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in hamster skin, similar to male hormones.
research The skin as an endocrine organ
The skin produces and processes hormones, affecting both local and overall body functions.
research Stromal Cells of the Human Postmenopausal Ovary Display a Distinctive Biochemical and Molecular Phenotype
Postmenopausal ovary stromal cells have a unique makeup and limited steroid production, suggesting androgens come from the adrenal gland.
research 17β-Estradiol Increases APE1/Ref-1 Secretion in Vascular Endothelial Cells and Ovariectomized Mice: Involvement of Calcium-Dependent Exosome Pathway
17β-estradiol boosts APE1/Ref-1 secretion in cells and mice via a calcium-dependent pathway.
research Oestrogen functions in skin and skin appendages
Oestrogens help maintain healthy skin, heal wounds, and may protect against skin aging and cancer.
research Estrogens
research Estrogen modulates mesenchymal-epidermal interactions in the adult nipple
Estrogen is important for keeping adult mouse nipple skin healthy by controlling certain cell signals.
research EFFECT OF ESTRADIOL LOCALLY APPLIED TO ABNORMAL SKIN
Applying estradiol to skin causes local changes but not cancer.
research 17β-Estradiol Enhances Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Production and Dihydrotestosterone Antagonizes the Enhancement via the Regulation of Adenylate Cyclase in Differentiated THP-1 Cells
Estrogen increases blood vessel growth factor production, while testosterone blocks this increase.
research The profile of steroid hormones in human fetal and adult ovaries
Fetal ovaries produce different hormones than adult ovaries, and endocrine-disrupting chemicals may affect this process.
research Estrogen regulates the expression of retinoic acid synthesis enzymes and binding proteins in mouse skin
Estrogen affects how vitamin A is processed in mouse skin, which may impact acne treatment, hair growth, and skin defense.
research Ovine placental steroid synthesis and metabolism in late gestation†
Diet changes hormone levels in pregnant ewes by affecting metabolism, not placental synthesis.
research The dose‐response of percutaneous oestradiol implants on the skeletons of postmenopausal women
Higher doses of oestradiol implants improve bone density in postmenopausal women.
research Thyrotropin-releasing hormone and oestrogen differentially regulate prolactin and prolactin receptor expression in female human skin and hair follicles in vitro
Oestrogen and thyrotropin-releasing hormone affect prolactin and its receptor in human skin and hair, suggesting new treatment options for related conditions.
research Differing responses of human follicular and nonfollicular scalp cells in an in vitro wound healing assay: Effects of estrogen on vascular endothelial growth factor secretion
Estrogen affects scalp cell types differently, enhancing some wound healing processes.
research 17α‐estradiol induces aromatase activity in intact human anagen hair follicles ex vivo
17α-estradiol boosts aromatase activity in female hair follicles, potentially helping with hair loss.
research Neurosteroid Synthesis-Mediated Regulation of GABAAReceptors: Relevance to the Ovarian Cycle and Stress
Ovarian and stress hormones can change GABA A receptors through neurosteroids.
research 17b-Estradiol is Abundant in Skin and Regulates the Hair Follicle Cycle and Mirex Tumor Promotion
17b-Estradiol in skin affects hair growth and tumor promotion.
research Effect of Neurosteroids on Basal and Stress-Induced Oxytocin Secretion in Luteal-Phase and Pregnant Sheep
Neurosteroids help regulate oxytocin levels, especially during stress and pregnancy, to protect against premature labor.
research Estrogens and the hair follicle. Ostrogene und der Haarfollikel
Estrogens generally inhibit hair growth and improve skin quality, but their exact effects on hair follicles are complex and not fully understood.
research The Organ-Maintained Human Sebaceous Gland
Human sebaceous glands can grow normally for a week without certain growth factors, and adding estrogen reduces their oil production without affecting cell growth.
research AN ATTEMPT TO ASSESS THE MAGNITUDE OF ENDOGENOUS ANDROGEN PRODUCTION IN A CASE OF THE ADRENOGENITAL SYNDROME*
A 17-year-old female with adrenogenital syndrome produces very high levels of androgens, which prevent complete feminization despite high estrogen doses.
research Intratesticular Control Of Steroidogenesis
The testes control steroid production through complex interactions involving various cells and signaling molecules.
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 Molecular interactions of natural and synthetic steroids in female hamsters’ flank organs
Testosterone, progesterone, and levonorgestrel change enzyme levels related to fat production in hamster skin, which could affect skin oil and acne.
research Androgen Action in the Ovary
Androgens are important for normal ovarian function and estrogen production, but may not be the main cause of follicle death.
research The effects of oestrogens on linear bone growth
Oestrogens are key for bone growth during puberty in both boys and girls.
