research 874 Mesothelioma of the Tunica Vaginalis Testis: A Clinicopathologic Study of 14 Patients with Evaluation of Markers of Mesothelial Malignancy
Mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis testis is rare, often high-grade, and has a median survival of about 24 months.
research Discriminating between virilizing ovary tumors and ovary hyperthecosis in postmenopausal women: clinical data, hormonal profiles and image studies
The research found that MRI and certain hormone levels can help tell apart ovarian tumors from hyperthecosis in postmenopausal women, but tissue analysis is still needed for a definite diagnosis.
research Simultaneous pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analysis of 5α-reductase inhibitors and androgens by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry
The method effectively measures drug impact on DHT levels in prostate treatments.
research Central 5-alpha reduction of testosterone is required for testosterone's inhibition of the hypothalamo-pituitary–adrenal axis response to restraint stress in adult male rats
Testosterone needs to be converted to DHT to reduce stress response in male rats.
research Serum concentrations of dihydrotestosterone are associated with symptoms of hypogonadism in biochemically eugonadal men
Higher DHT levels are linked to fewer hypogonadism symptoms in men with normal testosterone levels.
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 A Case of Virilizing Brenner Tumor in a Postmenopausal Woman With Stromal Androgenic Activity
A postmenopausal woman's hormone imbalance and symptoms improved after removing benign ovarian tumors.
research An unusual circulating steroid profile in a virilized postmenopausal woman
A 68-year-old woman developed male traits due to a tumor in her ovary, which was removed, returning her hormone levels to normal.
research Enzalutamide/finasteride/goserelin/zoledronic-acid
research A Phase 3, Open-Label, Single-Arm Trial of the Efficacy and Safety of Triptorelin 6-Month Formulation in Chinese Children with Central Precocious Puberty
Triptorelin effectively treats central precocious puberty in Chinese children with minimal side effects.
research Hormonal treatment of acne vulgaris: an update
Hormonal treatments are effective for severe or persistent acne and should be used with other acne therapies, considering potential side effects.
research The biochemical and phenotypic characterization of females homozygous for 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency.
Females with 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency have less body hair, no acne, normal fertility, and delayed menarche.
research Scalp Hair Regrowth in Hormone-Treated Transgender Woman
Hormone therapy with estradiol and spironolactone can regrow scalp hair in transgender women by lowering testosterone to female levels.
research Cognitive effects of testosterone and finasteride administration in older hypogonadal men.
Testosterone improves mood and thinking skills; finasteride has no effect.
research Epitestosterone
Epitestosterone may counteract testosterone's effects and has roles in body processes like prostate growth and hair distribution.
research Steroid inhibitors of androgen-potentiated actions on skin
Certain hormones can reduce skin oil and hair growth, potentially helping treat acne and excessive hair in women.
research Early Antiandrogen Therapy With Dutasteride Reduces Viral Shedding, Inflammatory Responses, and Time-to-Remission in Males With COVID-19: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Interventional Trial (EAT-DUTA AndroCoV Trial – Biochemical)
Dutasteride treatment in men with mild to moderate COVID-19 reduced viral shedding, inflammation, and recovery time without serious side effects.
research Leuprolide and estrogen versus oral contraceptive pills for the treatment of hirsutism: a prospective randomized study.
Leuprolide plus estrogen is more effective than oral contraceptives for reducing hirsutism.
research Clinical characterization of men with long QT syndrome and torsades de pointes associated with hypogonadism: A review and pharmacovigilance study
Low testosterone in men is a risk factor for a specific heart rhythm issue, and testosterone treatment may help prevent it.
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 The Development of BL 7660 as an Anti‐Acne Agent
BRL 7660, once studied for male contraception, showed promise as an acne treatment but was not developed further due to competing drugs.
research Proxalutamide (GT0918) Reduces the Rate of Hospitalization in mild-to-moderate COVID-19 Female Patients: A Randomized Double-Blinded Placebo-Controlled Two-Arm Parallel Trial
