research Germacrene Analogs are Anti-androgenic on Androgen-dependent Cells
Germacrene analogs, especially 8-Hydroxy germacrene B, are more effective than germacrone at blocking a hormone-related enzyme and could help treat hair loss.
research Hormone Blocking Anticancer Drugs
The document explains how certain drugs block hormones to treat cancers like breast and prostate cancer.
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 Anti-androgenic curcumin analogues as steroid 5-alpha reductase inhibitors
Some curcumin-like compounds can effectively and safely block the enzyme linked to hair loss and other conditions related to male hormones.
research Kinetic analysis of LY320236: competitive inhibitor of type I and non-competitive inhibitor of type II human steroid 5α-reductase
LY320236 is a strong blocker of two enzymes that change testosterone into dihydrotestosterone and might help treat conditions related to male hormones.
research Osteoanabole Östrogentherapie bei einem transsexuellen Mann
Adding estrogen increased bone mass in a transsexual man undergoing hormone therapy.
research Disruptors of Androgen Action and Synthesis
Certain pesticides and fungicides can interfere with male hormone functions, potentially causing reproductive issues in male rats.
research Sex steroid synthesis in human skin in situ: The roles of aromatase and steroidogenic acute regulatory protein in the homeostasis of human skin
Human skin produces sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, influenced by ARO and StAR, which may affect skin elasticity and hair growth.
research Spironolactone Therapy for Hirsutism in a Hyperandrogenic Woman
Spironolactone may help reduce excessive hair growth in women with high male hormone levels.
research 5α-Reductase underscores the development of pectoral fin breeding tubercles in zebrafish
The development of breeding tubercles in male zebrafish relies on a specific enzyme that processes hormones.
research Systemic testosterone induces structural, immunological, and sex steroid receptor changes in human XX skin
Testosterone makes XX skin more like male skin by changing its structure and cell makeup.
research Study on Changes of 19 Steroids in Plasma From 9 Diagnosed Patients With P450 Oxidoreductase Deficiency
Certain hormone levels can help diagnose P450 oxidoreductase deficiency.
research Sexual steroid regulation of spermatogenesis: new actors enter the stage
Estrogens and androgens are crucial for male fertility.
research Clinical Case Seminar: Postmenopausal androgen excess-challenges in diagnostic work-up and management of ovarian thecosis
The conclusion is that removing both ovaries is the best treatment for excess male hormones in postmenopausal women, with medication as another option, and managing insulin resistance is important for diagnosis and treatment.
research VIRILISING OVARIAN TUMOUR
In post-menopausal women, signs of increased male hormones should be checked for possible ovarian cancer.
research Status of sex reassignment surgery for gender identity disorder in Japan
In Japan, sex reassignment surgery for gender identity disorder faces challenges and needs better medical support and education.
research Respiratory regulation by steroids in newborn rats: a sex‐specific balance between allopregnanolone and progesterone receptors
Breathing in newborn rats is affected differently by hormones based on their sex.
research Consequences of steroid-5α-reductase deficiency and inhibition in vertebrates
Lack or blocking of SRD5a, a key component in hormone creation, can lead to conditions like pseudohermaphrodism and affect hair growth, bone mass, muscle strength, and reproductive health. More research is needed on its regulation from fertilization to adulthood.
research Changes in the PCOS phenotype with age
PCOS symptoms change with age; younger women have higher androgen levels and less metabolic issues, while older women face more metabolic challenges despite milder PCOS symptoms.
research Androgens
Male hormones and their interactions are crucial for male sexual development and characteristics.
research Identification of hepatic molecular mechanisms of action of alpha-tocopherol using global gene expression profile analysis in rats
Vitamin E affects liver metabolism, enhancing stress resistance, reducing blood clotting, and altering hormone processing.
research 7696 Ovarian Steroid Cell Tumor Presenting as Non-classical Adrenal Hyperplasia
Early detection of ovarian steroid cell tumors is crucial to prevent lasting symptoms.
research Clinical symptoms and sex steroid measurements in domestic ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) with hyperadrenocorticism
Neutered ferrets often develop hyperadrenocorticism, with symptoms like hair loss and lethargy, and androstenedione is a key indicator for diagnosis.
research Mendelian randomization studies of testosterone exposure: A systematic review
Testosterone's health effects are complex and not definitively understood.
research Androgenic and anti-androgenic effects of progesterone derivatives with different halogens as substituents at the C-6 position
Different halogens on progesterone derivatives can either block or mimic male hormone effects, depending on their type and amount.
research Androgen regulation of a specific gene in hamster flank organs
Male hormones control a specific gene in hamster skin, with different hormones having varying effects.
research Postmenopausal hyperandrogenism of ovarian origin
Postmenopausal women with excess male hormones may have ovarian tumors, and surgery usually cures them.
research The role of androgen therapy
Androgens, male hormones, play a role in both men and women's health, and testosterone therapy can help women with low levels, but it's not suitable for pregnant or lactating women, or those with certain conditions.
research Central precocious puberty secondary to peripheral precocious puberty due to a pineal germ cell tumor: a case and review of literature
