research Androgenetic Alopecia: An Evidence-Based Treatment Update
Effective treatments for male pattern baldness include oral finasteride and topical minoxidil, while topical minoxidil is best for female pattern baldness.
research S1 guideline for diagnostic evaluation in androgenetic alopecia in men, women and adolescents
Guidelines for diagnosing common hair loss include detailed history, clinical examination, and various diagnostic techniques.
research The Rationale for Inhibiting 5α-Reductase Isoenzymes in the Prevention and Treatment of Prostate Cancer
Inhibiting 5α-reductase can help reduce prostate cancer risk and improve treatment.
research Assessment of the usefulness of dihydrotestosterone in the diagnostics of patients with androgenetic alopecia
DHT's role in hair loss is important, but measuring its level for diagnosis is questionable.
research HSD3B1 Genotypes Conferring Adrenal-Restrictive and Adrenal-Permissive Phenotypes in Prostate Cancer and Beyond
Certain HSD3B1 gene types are linked to worse prostate cancer outcomes and affect treatment response and other health conditions.
research Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (17β -HSD3, 17β-HSD5, and 3α-HSD3) Inhibitors:Extragonadal Regulation of Intracellular Sex Steroid Hormone Levels
Certain inhibitors can potentially treat prostate cancer and other hormone-dependent conditions by controlling sex hormone levels in cells.
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 Pharmacologic management of pattern hair loss
Treat pattern hair loss with finasteride and topical minoxidil.
research New Biomarkers to Evaluate Hyperandrogenemic Women and Hypogonadal Men
The document concludes that hormonal biomarkers are key for diagnosing hyperandrogenemia in women and hypogonadism in men.
research ESGCT and FSGT Collaborative Congress Helsinki, Finland September 17–20, 2015 Abstracts
The congress highlighted new gene therapy techniques and cell transplantation methods for treating diseases.
research Steroidogenesis in steroid related cancers
Steroid-producing capabilities in certain cancers may contribute to treatment resistance.
research ORIGINAL RESEARCH—ENDOCRINOLOGY: Comparison of the Steady‐State Pharmacokinetics, Metabolism, and Variability of a Transdermal Testosterone Patch Versus a Transdermal Testosterone Gel in Hypogonadal Men
The testosterone patch and gel are both effective, but they have different absorption patterns and effects on hormone levels.
research The Optimal Indication for Testosterone Replacement Therapy in Late Onset Hypogonadism
Testosterone replacement therapy should be used for men with low testosterone levels and symptoms of hypogonadism, after careful diagnosis and considering individual needs.
research Androgen Receptor in Human Health: A Potential Therapeutic Target
The Androgen Receptor could be a target for treating diseases like cancer, but more research is needed to confirm the effectiveness of potential treatments.
research Matriptase activation and shedding with HAI-1 is induced by steroid sex hormones in human prostate cancer cells, but not in breast cancer cells
Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.
research Recent Advances in Drug Design and Drug Discovery for Androgen- Dependent Diseases
New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.
research Intradermal adipocytes mediate fibroblast recruitment during skin wound healing
Fat cells help recruit healing cells and build skin structure during wound healing.
research Evaluation and treatment of male and female pattern hair loss
Early diagnosis and treatment, using finasteride, minoxidil, or hair transplantation, improves hair loss outcomes.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: An Update of Treatment Options
Minoxidil is the only FDA-approved topical drug for treating male or female pattern hair loss, and other medications like finasteride and dutasteride can also increase hair growth.
research S1-Leitlinie Long-/Post-COVID
The guideline offers current advice for diagnosing and treating Long- and Post-COVID symptoms.
research Testosterone Supplementation for Aging-Associated Sarcopenia
Testosterone supplements can increase muscle mass and strength in older men with low levels, but long-term effects and risks need more research.
research Androgenetic alopecia: An update
Minoxidil and finasteride effectively treat hair loss.
research Potential adverse effects of long-term testosterone therapy
Long-term testosterone therapy can cause hormone suppression, affect prostate and heart health, and alter physical characteristics, but does not increase prostate cancer risk and needs more research for full risk assessment.
research The emerging role of Janus kinase inhibitors in the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases
Janus kinase inhibitors are promising drugs for treating autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.
research Revising the role of the androgen receptor in breast cancer
