research Is prostate-specific antigen a potential new marker of androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome?
Prostate-specific antigen may be a new marker for excess male hormones in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Prostate-Sparing Effects in Primates of the Potent Androgen 7α-Methyl-19-Nortestosterone: A Potential Alternative to Testosterone for Androgen Replacement and Male Contraception1
MENT could be a better option than testosterone for male hormone therapy and birth control because it works well at lower doses and has fewer side effects on the prostate.
research Rat steroid 5α-reductase kinetic characteristics: Extreme pH-dependency of the type II isozyme in prostate and epididymis homogenates
The activity of a specific rat enzyme in the prostate and epididymis is highly dependent on the acidity level.
research Intracavernous injection of platelet‐rich plasma reverses erectile dysfunction of chronic cavernous nerve degeneration through reduction of prostate hyperplasia evidence from an aging‐induced erectile dysfunction rat model
Platelet-rich plasma can improve erectile function in older individuals by reducing prostate enlargement.
research Association between prostate‐specific antigen and serum testosterone: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
Testosterone replacement therapy, especially intramuscular, raises PSA levels, but no overall link between PSA and testosterone was found except in non-BPH patients.
research Androgenetic alopecia and polymorphism of the androgen receptor gene (SNP rs6152) in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia or prostate cancer
Hair loss gene linked to prostate issues.
research Development of prostate cancer in a patient with primary hypogonadism: intratumoural steroidogenesis in prostate cancer tissues
Prostate cancer can progress even with low testosterone due to internal hormone production in the tumor.
research Alcohol and Prostate Cancer: Time to Draw Conclusions
Drinking a lot of alcohol increases the risk of prostate cancer and can worsen the condition.
research Impact of androgen deprivation therapy on mortality of prostate cancer patients with COVID-19: a propensity score-based analysis
Androgen deprivation therapy doesn't lower the risk of death from COVID-19 in prostate cancer patients.
research Abiraterone and spironolactone in prostate cancer: a combination to avoid
Don't combine abiraterone and spironolactone for prostate cancer treatment as it may worsen the disease.
research Male pattern baldness and incidence of prostate cancer
Men with vertex baldness may have a higher risk of developing prostate cancer, but more research is needed to confirm this.
research Increased DHT levels in androgenic alopecia have been selected for to protect men from prostate cancer
Higher DHT in male baldness may protect against prostate cancer.
research Prostate-Specific Antigen as a Marker of Hyperandrogenism in Women and Its Implications for Antidoping
PSA levels could help detect illegal steroid use in female athletes but face challenges like cost and PCOS prevalence.
research Association between male pattern baldness and prostate disease: A meta-analysis
Men with male pattern baldness have a higher risk of aggressive prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Circulating and intraprostatic sex steroid hormonal profiles in relation to male pattern baldness and chest hair density among men diagnosed with localized prostate cancers
Baldness in men with prostate cancer is linked to higher levels of certain sex hormones, but chest hair density is not.
research Inhibition of 5α-reductase in the rat prostate by Cimicifuga racemosa
Cimicifuga racemosa extract may help prevent and treat prostate issues by inhibiting 5α-reductase.
research Prostate specific antigen (PSA) in diagnosis of polycystic ovarian syndrome – a new insight
PSA levels are higher in women with PCOS, but FAI is a more accurate marker for diagnosis.
research Interaction between estrogens and androgen receptor genes microsatellites, prostate-specific antigen and androgen receptor expressions in breast cancer
Certain gene patterns in breast cancer are linked to how active hormone receptors are and could affect patient survival.
research Prostate cancer update: 2007
2007 research improved understanding of prostate cancer risk, diagnosis, and treatment, but also showed the need for personalized treatment and further study on certain therapies' risks.
research Androgenic alopecia may have evolved to protect men from prostate cancer by increasing skin exposure to ultraviolet radiation
Male pattern baldness might have evolved to help protect against prostate cancer by increasing UV radiation on the scalp.
research Advances in structure-based drug design targeting membrane protein markers in prostate cancer
Computational methods help design drugs targeting prostate cancer proteins.
research Relative binding affinity of novel steroids to androgen receptors in hamster prostate
New steroids were effective in blocking male hormone receptors in hamster prostates.
research Salvage Therapy for Prostate Cancer: AUA/ASTRO/SUO Guideline Part II: Treatment Delivery for Non-metastatic Biochemical Recurrence After Primary Radical Prostatectomy
Adding hormone therapy to radiation improves survival for high-risk prostate cancer recurrence but has side effects.
research Imaging prostate cancer (PCa) with [99m Tc(CO)3 ]finasteride dithiocarbamate
A new compound was effective for imaging prostate cancer in rats.
research Associations between sun sensitive pigmentary genes and serum prostate specific antigen levels
Men with less sun-sensitive skin have lower PSA levels, while men with more sun-sensitive skin have higher PSA levels.
research Intraethnic variation in steroid-5-alpha-reductase polymorphisms in prostate cancer patients: a potential factor implicated in 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor treatment
Genetic differences within ethnic groups may affect prostate cancer treatment effectiveness.
research Hormonal treatment for male-pattern hair loss: implications for cancer of the prostate?
