Cholesterol balance is important for hair health, and problems with it can lead to hair loss conditions.
research Alterations in androgen conjugate levels in women and men with alopecia
People with hair loss may have different levels of certain hormones due to changes in hormone processing.
research Apocrine sweat gland obstruction by antiperspirants allowing transdermal absorption of cutaneous generated hormones and pheromones as a link to the observed incidence rates of breast and prostate cancer in the 20th century
The document suggests that blocking sweat glands with antiperspirants might allow skin-generated hormones to be absorbed, possibly increasing breast and prostate cancer risk.
research Long-Term Administration of Triterpenoids From Ganoderma lucidum Mitigates Age-Associated Brain Physiological Decline via Regulating Sphingolipid Metabolism and Enhancing Autophagy in Mice
Taking triterpenoids from Ganoderma lucidum over a long time can help slow down brain aging and improve overall health in mice.
research Baldness and testicular cancer: the EPSAM case-control study
Bald men may have a lower risk of testicular cancer.
research Bioequivalence Study of Finasteride
Finasteride's two formulations absorb similarly, showing bioequivalence.
research Gender-specific alteration of steroid metabolism and its impact on viral replication in a mouse model of hepatitis B virus infection
Hepatitis B virus alters steroid hormones in male mice, reducing dihydrotestosterone to inhibit viral replication.
research Influence of Saw palmetto and Pygeum africana extracts on the urinary concentrations of endogenous anabolic steroids: Relevance to doping analysis
Taking Saw palmetto and Pygeum africana can change the levels of certain steroids in urine, which could cause confusion in doping tests.
research Commensal microbiome promotes hair follicle regeneration by inducing keratinocyte HIF-1α signaling and glutamine metabolism
The skin's microbiome helps hair regrow by boosting certain cell signals and metabolism.
research Arginine Metabolic Disruption Impairs Hair Regeneration via ROS-Mediated Inactivation of mTOR Signaling in Androgenetic Alopecia.
Arginine deficiency hinders hair growth in androgenetic alopecia, but restoring it can promote hair regeneration.
research Adverse effects of the 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor finasteride on Daphnia magna: Endocrine system and lipid metabolism disruption
Finasteride harms Daphnia magna's reproduction, growth, and metabolism.
research Androgen excess: a hallmark of polycystic ovary syndrome
Excess androgens may cause PCOS, not just be a symptom.
research Comparison of three different lactic acid bacteria-fermented proteins on RAW 264.7 osteoclast and MC3T3-E1 osteoblast differentiation
Fermented soy protein may help prevent bone loss by affecting bone cell activity.
research Calcineurin-based immunosuppression in renal transplantation : focus on efficacy, the role of steroids, and the cardiovascular risk
Tacrolimus causes fewer acute rejections than cyclosporin A in kidney transplants but doesn't necessarily improve kidney function after one year; cardiovascular risks and side effects vary between the two drugs.
research Evaluating the Causal Relationship Between Human Blood Metabolites and the Susceptibility to Alopecia Areata
Blood metabolites significantly influence alopecia areata risk.
research 24-Hydroxycholesterol suppresses steroid 5α-reductase-catalyzed conversion in human glioblastoma cell lines: A novel link between brain cholesterol homeostasis and androgen metabolism
24-Hydroxycholesterol reduces DHT formation in brain cancer cells, linking cholesterol and hormone metabolism.
research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases
The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.
research Lactate dehydrogenase activity drives hair follicle stem cell activation
Lactate production is important for activating hair growth stem cells.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Finasteride
Finasteride effectively treats baldness but may cause sexual side effects.

Blocking progesterone metabolism can cause depression-like behavior in mice.
research MicroRNA Species in Follicular Fluid Associating With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Related Intermediary Phenotypes
Certain microRNAs in the fluid around eggs are linked to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and may help diagnose it.
research Rare and common genetic determinants of metabolic individuality and their effects on human health
Genetic variations greatly affect individual metabolism and can impact health and disease risk.
research The diagnosis of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, based on serum basal or post-ACTH stimulation 17-hydroxyprogesterone, can lead to false-positive diagnosis
Using 17-hydroxyprogesterone levels to diagnose nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia can result in many incorrect diagnoses.
