720-750 / 1000+ results research Steroid Sulfatase Deficiency and Androgen Activation Before and After Puberty
In STSD patients, the body compensates for low androgen levels by increasing another enzyme's activity.
research The Effect of 5 -Reductase Inhibitors on Erectile Function
5-alpha-reductase inhibitors may cause a low incidence of erectile dysfunction that decreases over time.
research Alopecia areata – hyperactivity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis is a myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
research Systemic Lupus Erythematous and Vitamin D Deficiency in an Adult Sudanese Patient with Sickle Cell Trait
A patient with sickle cell trait and low vitamin D might have lupus, a rare combination that needs more attention.
research Smad7-Induced β-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research Septin4 promotes cell death in human colon cancer cells by interacting with BAX
Septin4 helps kill colon cancer cells by working with the protein BAX.
research Hair follicle aging is driven by transepidermal elimination of stem cells via COL17A1 proteolysis
Hair loss and aging are caused by the breakdown of a key protein in hair stem cells.
research Hair cycle-specific expression of versican in human hair follicles
Versican, a protein, is less present in thinning hair follicles and this decrease might contribute to common hair loss in men.
research Three-Month Treatment With a Long-Acting Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist of Patients With Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: Effects on Tissue Androgen Concentration, 5α-Reductase Activity and Androgen Receptor Content*
A three-month treatment with a GnRH agonist significantly lowered androgen levels and 5α-reductase activity in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Diagnosing hyperandrogenism in women is complex and requires accurate testing methods and consideration of SHBG levels.
research Co-secretion of testosterone and cortisol by a functional adrenocortical oncocytoma
A woman's rare adrenal tumor caused high testosterone and cortisol levels, which normalized after the tumor was removed.
research Hair Loss After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy
Over half of patients had hair loss after weight-loss surgery, especially women, linked to low zinc and vitamin B12 levels.
research Interleukin-6 Null Mice Paradoxically Display Increased STAT3 Activity and Wound-Induced Hair Neogenesis
Mice without the IL-6 gene had more hair growth after injury due to higher activity of a related protein, Stat3.
research Insulin resistance and its relationship with high molecular weight adiponectin in adolescents with polycystic ovary syndrome and a maternal history of polycystic ovary syndrome
Teens with PCOS and a mom with PCOS have higher insulin resistance and lower adiponectin levels, which could signal early metabolic problems.
research Managing Cutaneous Manifestations of Hyperandrogenic Disorders
Birth control pills help treat skin and hair growth problems linked to high male hormone levels.
