180-210 / 1000+ results research Anabolic androgenic steroids and carcinogenicity focusing on Leydig cell: a literature review
Anabolic androgenic steroids can increase cancer risk and disrupt hormones.
research Transcriptome analysis to identify the downstream genes of androgen receptor in dermal papilla cells
The study found that androgen receptors in skin cells mainly affect the focal adhesion pathway and control the caveolin-1 gene, with implications for new treatments for related diseases.
research Testosterone enhances expression and functional activity of epithelial sodium channel (ENaC), cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) and sodium hydrogen exchanger (NHE) in vas deferens of sex-steroid deficient male rats
Testosterone changes how certain channels work in male rat reproductive tracts, affecting fertility-related fluid balance.
research Synthesis of novel andostane-N-cyclohexyl-17-carboxamides, and their effect on the 5α-reductase isoform 2, the androgen receptor, and androgen-dependent glands
New compounds were made and tested, with compound 6 showing potential for treating prostate-related diseases.
research 1 Androgens
Testosterone is made by Leydig cells, is active when not bound to proteins, and works by binding to receptors in muscles and other tissues.
research Nipple Differentiation in Fetal Male Rats Treated with an Inhibitor of the Enzyme 5α-Reductase: Definition of a Selective Role for Dihydrotestosterone*
Blocking a specific enzyme in male rat fetuses leads to the development of nipples and feminized genitalia.
research Hormonal control of vas deferens fluid volume and aquaporin expression in rats
Testosterone increases fluid secretion and aquaporin expression in the vas deferens, which is important for male fertility.
research The effect of intracutaneous injections of micronized crystalline suspensions of nandrolone phenylpropionate in the skin of female hairless hamsters
Nandrolone phenylpropionate injections thickened the skin and enlarged oil glands in female hairless hamsters.
research Disruption of androgen metabolism, regulation and effects : involvement of steroidogenic enzymes
Anabolic steroids and inflammation can disrupt androgen metabolism, potentially causing health issues.
research Discovery of Nonsteroidal Androgens
Scientists found new nonsteroidal compounds that can act like natural male hormones and might help treat male fertility and hormone issues.
research Mechanism of action of androgen in hair follicles
Testosterone affects hair follicles differently across body sites, with beard hair follicles showing more activity of a specific enzyme and presence of androgen receptors compared to scalp hair.
research Screening of synthetic and natural product databases: Identification of novel androgens and antiandrogens
Researchers found new potential treatments for conditions related to the androgen receptor, like male hormonal contraception, by testing thousands of compounds.
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.
