research Biochemical and trichological characterization of diffuse alopecia in women
Diffuse alopecia in women may be related to androgens and iron deficiency, and basic hormone and nutrient screening is useful.
research 2-Substituted 4-(Thio)chromenone 6-O-Sulfamates: Potent Inhibitors of Human Steroid Sulfatase
New compounds were made that block an enzyme linked to breast cancer better than existing treatments.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase as a Novel Therapeutic Target for Schizophrenia and Other Neuropsychiatric Disorders
S5αR inhibitors might help treat schizophrenia and other mental disorders but need more research.
research The Hair Follicle: A Paradoxical Androgen Target Organ
Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome and insulin-resistant hyperinsulinemia
Insulin resistance contributes to hormone imbalances in many women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Regulatory roles of androgens in cutaneous wound healing
Testosterone may slow down wound healing and increase inflammation.
research The dihydrotestosterone (DHT) hypothesis of prostate cancer and its therapeutic implications
The document suggests that targeting the hormone DHT could be a more effective treatment for prostate cancer than targeting testosterone.
research LY191704: a selective, nonsteroidal inhibitor of human steroid 5 alpha-reductase type 1.
LY191704 is a compound that effectively blocks a specific enzyme involved in hormone conversion and could help treat enlarged prostate and hair loss.
research 8 Hair follicles and associated glands as androgen targets
Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.
research Brg1 Governs a Positive Feedback Circuit in the Hair Follicle for Tissue Regeneration and Repair
Brg1 is crucial for hair growth and skin repair by maintaining stem cells and promoting regeneration.
research Hair growth-promoting effect of Aconiti Ciliare Tuber extract mediated by the activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling
Aconiti Ciliare Tuber extract may help hair grow by activating a specific cell signaling pathway.
research Recent advances in oxasteroids chemistry
New methods to make oxasteroids show promise for medical treatments like osteoporosis and breast cancer.
research Applications of steroid drugs entrapped in cyclodextrins
Cyclodextrins improve how steroid drugs work and are used in marketed medications and environmental applications.
research Estrogen-Dependent Ontogeny of Sex Differences in Somatostatin Neurons of the Hypothalamic Periventricular Nucleus*
Male rats have more somatostatin neurons than females due to testosterone converting to estrogen during early development.
research Synthesis and Pharmacological Evaluation of New 16-Methyl Pregnane Derivatives.
New pregnane derivatives were more effective than finasteride at inhibiting a key enzyme for male pattern baldness.
research Congenital adrenal hyperplasia
CAH is a genetic disorder affecting cortisol production and causing hormonal imbalances, with treatment and diagnosis varying by form and symptoms.
research An intergenerational androgenic mechanism of female intrasexual competition in the cooperatively breeding meerkat
Androgens in female meerkats influence aggression and dominance, affecting social dynamics and offspring behavior.
research Stimulation of elastin expression by minoxidil in chick skin fibroblasts
Minoxidil boosts elastin production, potentially helping skin diseases.
research Synthesis, Biological Evaluation and Molecular Docking of Avicequinone C Analogues as Potential Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
Certain compounds, especially those with a propionic substituent, could potentially be new treatments for hair loss and similar disorders.
research Endocrine treatment of benign prostatichypertrophy: Current concepts
New hormonal treatments for enlarged prostate show promise for safer, effective non-surgical options.
research Regulatory Mechanisms of Natural Active Ingredients and Compounds on Keratinocytes and Fibroblasts in Mitigating Skin Photoaging
Natural ingredients may help reduce skin aging by protecting cells and boosting collagen.
research Stability studies of antiandrogenic compounds in Curcuma aeruginosa Roxb. extract
Germacrone in Curcuma aeruginosa extract degrades at high temperatures but is stable in certain solutions and unaffected by pH levels.
research The effect of minocycline on the metabolism of androgens by human oral periosteal fibroblasts and its inhibition by finasteride
Minocycline may cause hair loss by increasing DHT levels, but finasteride can help counteract this effect.
research Ovarian Hilus-Cell Hyperplasia and High Serum Testosterone in a Patient With Postmenopausal Virilization
A woman's male-like symptoms and high testosterone were due to ovarian hilus-cell hyperplasia, which improved after surgery.
research Sustained release of inhibitor from bionic scaffolds for wound healing and functional regeneration
Researchers developed a scaffold that releases a healing drug over time, improving wound healing and skin regeneration.
research In-vivo uptake and metabolism of testosterone by the skin and other tissues of the rat
Rat skin takes up and processes testosterone differently than other organs, with testosterone being more important for the skin than its metabolite 5α-DHT.
research Polycystic ovarian syndrome and associated hirsutism in the adolescent
Early diagnosis and treatment of PCOS in teenagers can help prevent more severe adult PCOS.
research Effects of chronic inhibition of Testosterone metabolism on cardiac remodeling after ischemia/reperfusion-induced myocardial damage in gonadectomized rats
Testosterone reduces heart damage and inflammation after injury.
