New compounds were made that effectively block a specific enzyme related to androgen conditions.
research ANTIANDROGEN AND HORMONAL TREATMENT OF ACNE
Certain hormone treatments can improve acne and related conditions in women.
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 Mechanisms responsible for progesterone's protection against lordosis-inhibiting effects of restraint II. Role of progesterone metabolites
Allopregnanolone, a progesterone metabolite, helps reduce restraint effects on behavior.
research Do Anti-androgens Have Potential as Therapeutics for COVID-19?
Anti-androgens might help reduce COVID-19 severity in men.
research Natural Product-Inspired Bis(trifluoromethyl) Phenyl Hydroxycinnamate Derivatives as Promising Nonsteroidal Inhibitors of Human Steroid 5α-Reductase Type-1: Synthesis, In Vitro, and In Silico Studies
New compounds show promise as nonsteroidal treatments for hair loss.
research Supplementary Material for: The Role of Fibrosis in Androgenetic Alopecia: Mechanisms and Implications
Combining anti-androgenic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fibrotic treatments may improve hair loss outcomes.
research Androgens and alopecia
Male hormones, particularly DHT, are linked to male pattern hair loss, and treatments like finasteride can help, but they don't work for postmenopausal women's hair loss, which may have different causes.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Recent Understanding of the Androgenetic Receptor-Mediated Molecular Mechanisms and Current Pharmacotherapy
Androgenic alopecia is mainly caused by DHT, and new treatments focus on hair regeneration and aging factors.
research Androgens modulate endometrial function
Androgens affect the function and health of the endometrium.
research The Role of Androgens in Health and Disease in Females: A Narratıve Review
Androgens affect many aspects of female health, and more research is needed to understand their roles and treatment potential.
research Induction of transforming growth factor-beta 1 by androgen is mediated by reactive oxygen species in hair follicle dermal papilla cells
Androgens increase a growth factor in hair cells by creating reactive oxygen species, and antioxidants might help treat hair loss.
research Sex hormones and antiandrogens influence in vitro growth of dermal papilla cells and outer root sheath keratinocytes of human hair follicles
Sex hormones and antiandrogens can either stimulate or inhibit human hair follicle cell growth depending on the dose.
research Antiandrogens — Basic Concepts for Treatment
Antiandrogens can treat excess body hair and hair loss by blocking male hormones.
research Mechanisms of action and medical evidences of the therapeutic effect of oral gelatin on telogen effluvium and androgenetic alopecia in both men and women
research Therapeutic Androgen Receptor Ligands
Androgens and SARMs play a role in body mass, frailty, skin health, and hair growth, and are used in treating prostate cancer, acne, and hair loss, with potential for new uses and improved versions in the future.
research [Effects of androgens on the skin. Therpeutic implications].
Androgens affect skin conditions like acne and hirsutism, treatable with hormone therapy and other methods.
research A Mutation of the Androgen Receptor Associated with Partial Androgen Resistance, Familial Gynecomastia, and Fertility*
A subtle androgen receptor abnormality can allow normal male development and sometimes fertility despite partial androgen resistance.
research Synthesis of novel andostane-N-cyclohexyl-17-carboxamides, and their effect on the 5α-reductase isoform 2, the androgen receptor, and androgen-dependent glands
New compounds were made and tested, with compound 6 showing potential for treating prostate-related diseases.
research Androgen Receptor Actions Modify Skin Structure and Chemical Carcinogen-induced Skin Cancer Susceptibility in Mice
Androgen receptor inactivation delays skin cancer onset and reduces incidence in mice, with gender differences in susceptibility.
research Expression of mRNA for androgen receptor, 5alpha-reductase and 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in human dermal papilla cells
Hair sensitivity to androgens is partly controlled by specific enzyme expressions in different hair areas.
research Adrenal steroid precursors exert potent androgenic action in the hamster sebaceous glands of flank organs and ears.
Certain adrenal hormones can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in hamster skin, similar to male hormones.
research Decreased allopregnanolone induced by hormonal contraceptives is associated with a reduction in social behavior and sexual motivation in female rats
Hormonal contraceptives may reduce social behavior and sexual motivation by lowering allopregnanolone levels.
