research Cloning, computational analysis and expression profiling of steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 (SRD5A1) gene during reproductive phases and ovatide stimulation in endangered catfish, Clarias magur
The research identified and described a gene important for hormone conversion in endangered catfish, which varies in activity during different reproductive stages and after hormone treatment.
research The effect of finasteride on the male rat brain
Finasteride affects the male rat brain by reducing certain protein activation, but these effects may reverse after stopping the drug.
research Androgen insufficiency in women: diagnostic and therapeutic implications
Testosterone replacement can help women with low libido and mood, but they need to have enough estrogen first to avoid side effects.
research Dose–Response Effects of Oral Melatonin on Reproductive Parameters in Intact Male Pomeranian Dogs With Alopecia X: A Controlled Study
Melatonin improved reproductive function in male Pomeranian dogs with Alopecia X, but more research is needed.
research What does the research say about androgen use and cerebrovascular events?
Androgen use may increase the risk of stroke, but more research is needed.
research Gender Differences in Mouse Skin Morphology and Specific Effects of Sex Steroids and Dehydroepiandrosterone
Male and female mice have different skin thickness, and hormones affect their skin and hair growth differently.
research Ovarian sex steroid receptors and sex hormones in androgenized rats
High doses of nandrolone decanoate disrupt ovarian hormones and receptors in rats, with recovery only at lower doses and longer recovery times.
research Cross-kingdom delivery and putative gene modulation of androgen pathways by plant-derived exosome-like nanoparticles from polygoni multiflori radix promotes hair growth via miRNA cargo
Plant-derived nanoparticles from Polygoni Multiflori Radix promote hair growth better than Minoxidil by affecting androgen pathways.
research Reporting on Adverse Clinical Events
Certain medications can reduce mortality risk in COPD patients, but others can increase risks of cardiovascular issues, postoperative delirium, and other adverse effects.
research Glucocorticoid and Sex Hormone Receptors: Clinical Implications and Therapeutic Relevance
Glucocorticoids and sex hormones affect skin health, with potential for targeted treatments to minimize side effects and treat skin conditions.
research Forum
The document concludes that various medications and treatments can have significant, sometimes adverse, effects on health outcomes.
research Mixture effects of endocrine disrupting compounds in vitro
Weak endocrine disruptors in mixtures can have significant effects and should be considered in risk assessments.
research Mechanism of action and promising clinical application of melatonin from a dermatological perspective
Melatonin may help treat skin conditions.
research Hair Regenerative Mechanisms of Red Ginseng Oil and Its Major Components in the Testosterone-Induced Delay of Anagen Entry in C57BL/6 Mice
Red ginseng oil and its components help promote hair regrowth and could treat hair loss.
research Penis Endocrinology
Hormones, especially testosterone and DHT, are key for penis development and function, and testosterone therapy may help with erectile dysfunction in those with low levels.
research Testosterone therapy in men: Clinical and pharmacological perspectives
Testosterone therapy aims to treat hormone deficiencies and various conditions safely and effectively, but requires careful patient monitoring due to potential side effects.
research Testosterone and female sexuality: A skeptical view
Testosterone's role in women's sex drive is unclear and needs more research, as low levels don't always mean less sexual interest and high levels can cause side effects.
research The Role of Non-Aromatizable Testosterone Metabolite in Metabolic Pathways
Normal levels of DHT can reduce belly fat and increase muscle, but too much can lead to hair loss, prostate issues, and possibly heart disease.
research Bisphenol-A antagonizes the rapidly modulating effect of DHT on spinogenesis and long-term potentiation of hippocampal neurons
Bisphenol-A (BPA) increases connections between brain cells and boosts their activity, but it blocks the effects of a male hormone on brain cell plasticity.
research Effect of Testosterone Supplementation With and Without a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor on Fat-Free Mass in Men With Suppressed Testosterone Production
Testosterone's muscle-building effects do not require its conversion to DHT.
research Evaluation of efficacy, safety, and reversibility of combination regimen of cyproterone acetate and testosterone buciclate in bonnet monkey
The right dosage of CPA and TB can work as a safe and reversible male contraceptive in monkeys.
research Novel progestogenic androgens for male contraception: design, synthesis, and activity of C7 α-substituted testosterone
New testosterone analogs show promise for male contraception with better activity and potentially fewer side effects.
research Effect of the frequency of injection on the clinical responses of postmenopausal women to testosterone enanthate with estradiol valerate
Injecting 2 ml of TEEV every 4 weeks is better because it has the same benefits but fewer side effects.
research Effect of 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and Testosterone on Apoptosis in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.
research Testosterone Is a Contraceptive and Should Not Be Used in Men Who Desire Fertility
Testosterone replacement therapy can prevent men from fathering children and should not be used by those wanting to stay fertile.
research Relationship between glucose homeostatic disorders and testosterone in adult Nigerian women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Higher testosterone levels in Nigerian women with PCOS are linked to glucose disorders like diabetes.
research Long-term Oral Administration of 5α-reductase Inhibitor Attenuates Erectile Function by Inhibiting Autophagy and Promoting Apoptosis of Smooth Muscle Cells in Corpus Cavernosum of Aged Rats
Long-term use of a certain medication can worsen erectile function in aged rats by damaging penile muscle cells.
research Alpha Smooth Muscle Actin role in Androgenetic Alopecia Pathogenesis:
Reduced alpha smooth muscle actin may cause hair loss in androgenetic alopecia.
research Negative Impact of Testosterone Deficiency and 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Therapy on Metabolic and Sexual Function in Men
Low testosterone and 5α-reductase inhibitors can harm men's metabolic and sexual health; testosterone therapy may help, but discussing 5α-RIs' side effects is important.
