research The post-finasteride syndrome: possible etiological mechanisms and symptoms
Post-finasteride syndrome causes lasting sexual, mental, and physical issues, needing more research for solutions.
research The Interplay between Finasteride-Induced Androgen Imbalance, Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress, Oxidative Stress, and Liver Disorders in Paternal and Filial Generation
Finasteride in male rats causes liver and metabolic issues in their offspring.
research Developmental and functional roles of androgen and interactive signals for external genitalia and erectile tissues
Androgen and Wnt signals are crucial for developing and functioning male genitalia and erectile tissues.
research Improvement of androgenic alopecia by extracellular vesicles secreted from hyaluronic acid-stimulated induced mesenchymal stem cells
HA-stimulated stem cell vesicles improved hair growth in male mice with androgenetic alopecia.
research Investigation of hub genes and immune infiltration in androgenetic alopecia using bioinformatics analysis
Immune activities and specific genes are important in male pattern baldness.
research Pregnancy and neonatal outcome with maternal exposure to finasteride: Case series
Exposure to the hair loss drug finasteride during pregnancy can cause genital anomalies in male babies, but not in female babies. It's best to avoid this drug in women who could potentially become pregnant.
research Effects of finasteride, a type 2 5-alpha reductase inhibitor, on fetal development in the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta)
Finasteride, when given in high oral doses to pregnant monkeys, caused genital abnormalities in male fetuses, but not in female fetuses or those exposed to intravenous finasteride.
research Three-Dimensional Analysis of Sex- and Gonadal Status- Dependent Microglial Activation in a Mouse Model of Parkinson’s Disease
Sex and sex hormones can affect brain inflammation in Parkinson's disease, with male mice being more affected and female mice showing a protective effect.
research Exploring the clinical implications of novel SRD5A2 variants in 46,XY disorders of sex development
New SRD5A2 variants may disrupt protein function, aiding diagnosis and treatment of related disorders.
research Modulation of Androgen Receptor Transcriptional Activity
Androgen receptor activity is influenced by hormones, co-factors, modifications, and mutations.
research Cucurbitacin promotes hair growth in mice by inhibiting the expression of fibroblast growth factor 18
Cucurbitacin helps mice grow hair by blocking a protein that stops hair growth.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the formation and seasonal changes of nuptial pads in Rana chensinensis
Nuptial pads in Chinese brown frogs change seasonally due to specific gene activity.
research Efficiency of 5% Minoxidil and Platelet-rich Plasma Therapy in Androgenetic Alopecia - A Retrospective Study
PRP therapy is more effective and preferred over minoxidil for hair loss.
research Efficacy of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Males With Androgenetic Alopecia
PRP treatment mildly to moderately improves hair loss in most men with AGA.
research Structural perspectives on the androgen receptor, the elusive shape-shifter
The androgen receptor's shape-changing ability helps it function but can lead to cancer treatment resistance.
research Study on the Efficacy and Potential Mechanism of Topical Shen Bai Hair Growing Decoction against Androgenetic Alopecia Based on Ultrahigh Performance Liquid Chromatography Quadrupole Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry and RNA-seq
The Shen Bai Hair Growing Decoction may help treat hair loss by promoting hair growth and reducing inflammation.
research Ginsenoside CK inhibits androgenetic alopecia by regulating Wnt/β‐catenin and p53 signaling pathways in AGA mice
Ginsenoside CK, found in Panax ginseng, can prevent hair loss by controlling certain growth pathways and promoting hair follicle development.
research Ornithine decarboxylase is upregulated by the androgen receptor in skeletal muscle and regulates myoblast proliferation
Androgens increase muscle mass by promoting myoblast growth through ornithine decarboxylase.
research Endocrine intervention for transsexuals
Hormone treatment for transsexual individuals is effective but carries risks like thromboembolic events and mood changes, with most side effects being minor and reversible.
research Harm reduction measures in a recreational gym user with anabolic androgenic steroid dependence: a case report in the context of current best clinical practice
Non-medical steroid use in gym-goers is risky and needs better prevention and care strategies.
research Effects of dihydrotestosterone on osteoblast activity in curdlan-administered SKG mice and osteoprogenitor cells in patients with ankylosing spondylitis
DHT inhibition may increase spinal bone growth in ankylosing spondylitis.
research COVID-19 Severity and Androgen Receptor Polymorphism
Men with more CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene and lower testosterone levels may experience more severe COVID-19.
research New Insights into Testosterone Biosynthesis: Novel Observations from HSD17B3 Deficient Mice
Mice without the enzyme HSD17B3 still produce normal testosterone, suggesting they have different ways to make it compared to humans.
research The prostaglandin synthases, COX-2 and L-PGDS, mediate prostate hyperplasia induced by low-dose bisphenol A
Low-dose bisphenol A increases prostate size in rats by affecting certain enzymes.
research Hair Regeneration Effects of Lespedeza bicolor Extract In Vivo and In Vitro
Lespedeza bicolor extract promotes hair growth and increases hair follicle cell growth, potentially making it a better treatment than minoxidil.
research Millet seed oil activates β–catenin signaling and promotes hair growth
Millet seed oil may help hair grow by activating certain cell growth signals.
