research Multiple readout assay for hormonal (androgenic and antiandrogenic) and cytotoxic activity of plant and fungal extracts based on differential prostate cancer cell line behavior
The study created a test that found hormonal and toxic effects in plant and fungal extracts using prostate cancer cells.
research Effects of the anti-androgen finasteride on 5α-reduction of androgens in the presence of progesterone in human gingival fibroblasts: modulatory actions of the alkaline phosphatase inhibitor levamisole
Finasteride reduces testosterone conversion, progesterone lessens this, and levamisole enhances finasteride's effect.
research Progesterone promotes the survival of newborn neurons in the dentate gyrus of adult male mice
Progesterone helps adult male mice grow more neurons and improves memory.
research 17α‐estradiol induces aromatase activity in intact human anagen hair follicles ex vivo
17α-estradiol boosts aromatase activity in female hair follicles, potentially helping with hair loss.
research Estrogens
research Highly efficient nucleophilic addition of alkyl Grignard reagents to 17-ketosteroids in the presence of cerium(III) chloride: Synthesis of 17α-propyl-17β-hydroxy-4-androsten-3-one, an androgen receptor antagonist
Adding cerium(III) chloride to Grignard reagents improves the making of compounds that could treat prostate issues and hair loss.
research The dose‐response of percutaneous oestradiol implants on the skeletons of postmenopausal women
Higher doses of oestradiol implants improve bone density in postmenopausal women.
research Synthesis and in Vitro Evaluation of 4-Substituted N-(1,1-Dimethylethyl)-3-oxo-4-androstene-17.beta.-carboxamides as 5.alpha.-Reductase Inhibitors and Antiandrogens

research Binding of Steroid Hormones by the 105,000 x g Supernatant Fraction from Homogenates of Rat Skin and Variations during the Hair Cycle
Steroid hormone binding in rat skin varies with pH, heat, and hair cycle phases.
research Cyproterone Acetate Quantification in Human Plasma by High-performance Liquid Chromatography Coupled to Atmospheric Pressure Photoionization Tandem Mass Spectrometry
The method accurately measures cyproterone acetate in plasma, showing no significant difference between two formulations.
research New Nonsteroidal Molecules as Blockers of the Steroidogenic Pathway
New nonsteroidal molecules can potentially increase dihydrotestosterone in neurons by blocking certain enzymes, without affecting prostate and seminal vesicle weight.
research 3 alpha, 17 beta-androstanediol glucuronide in plasma. A marker of androgen action in idiopathic hirsutism.
High levels of 3 alpha-diol glucuronide in the blood are a marker of increased androgen action in women with excessive hair growth of unknown cause.
research Sex Hormones and Related Compounds, Including Hormonal Contraceptives
The document concludes that sex hormones and related compounds have various effects on health, with both potential benefits and risks.
research Serum C-19 steroid sulphates in females with clinical hyperandrogenism
Women with hyperandrogenism have higher androgen levels and lower SHBG, which may contribute to conditions like excessive hair growth and early puberty.
research Stromal Cells of the Human Postmenopausal Ovary Display a Distinctive Biochemical and Molecular Phenotype
Postmenopausal ovary stromal cells have a unique makeup and limited steroid production, suggesting androgens come from the adrenal gland.
research Mechanisms of Action of Dehydroepiandrosterone
DHEA affects various tissues by interacting with multiple receptors and can be converted into sex hormones.
research Bioactives in Chinese Proprietary Medicine Modulates 5α-Reductase Activity and Gene Expression Associated with Androgenetic Alopecia
Chinese medicine may help treat hair loss by affecting genes and enzyme activity.
research Effect of finasteride on adrenal steroidogenesis in men.
Finasteride, when taken daily, lowers dihydrotestosterone levels but doesn't noticeably affect adrenal steroid production, except by blocking the 5 alpha-reductase enzyme.
research Androgenic effect of testosterone and some of its metabolites in relation to their biotransformation in the skin.
Testosterone and some of its forms can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in skin.
research Expanding the therapeutic potential of neuro(active)steroids: a promising strategy for hyperdopaminergic behavioral phenotypes
Neurosteroids may help treat disorders with too much dopamine activity.
research Finasteride treatment and neuroactive steroid formation.
Finasteride treatment can decrease certain steroids and increase others, possibly leading to depression symptoms in some cases.
research Central Opioid Inhibition of Neuroendocrine Stress Responses in Pregnancy in the Rat Is Induced by the Neurosteroid Allopregnanolone
In late pregnancy, allopregnanolone reduces stress responses in rats by affecting brain chemicals.
research 25 years of ERβ: a personal journey
ERβ has potential in treating prostate cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, but human studies are needed before clinical use.
research Effect of Leuprolide and Dexamethasone on Hair Growth and Hormone Levels in Hirsute Women: The Relative Importance of the Ovary and the Adrenal in the Pathogenesis of Hirsutism*
