research A phase IIA randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to study the efficacy and safety of the selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM), MK-0773 in female participants with sarcopenia
MK-0773 safely increased muscle mass but did not improve muscle strength or function in elderly women with sarcopenia.
research Androgen receptor–mediated inhibition of cutaneous wound healing
Blocking testosterone speeds up wound healing in males.
research Genetic Variation in the Human Androgen Receptor Gene Is the Major Determinant of Common Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia
Genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene mainly causes early-onset hair loss, with maternal inheritance playing a key role.
research Androgen Receptor Polymorphisms (CAG Repeat Lengths) in Androgenetic Alopecia, Hirsutism, and Acne
Shorter CAG repeats may cause hair and skin issues, while longer ones may link to acne.
research Anticonvulsant Activity of Progesterone and Neurosteroids in Progesterone Receptor Knockout Mice
Progesterone's seizure-reducing effects are mainly due to allopregnanolone, not progesterone receptors.
research The hairless gene mutated in congenital hair loss disorders encodes a novel nuclear receptor corepressor
The mutated hairless gene causes hair loss by acting as a new type of corepressor affecting thyroid hormone receptors.
research Clinical, Hormonal, Behavioral, and Genetic Characteristics of Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome in a Brazilian Cohort: Five Novel Mutations in the Androgen Receptor Gene
Five new mutations in the androgen receptor gene were found, helping to understand androgen insensitivity syndrome better.
research Follicular and epidermal alterations in patients treated with ZD1839 (Iressa), an inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor
ZD1839 (Iressa) causes skin and hair side effects, treatable with tretinoin cream and minocycline.
research An estrogen receptor pathway regulates the telogen-anagen hair follicle transition and influences epidermal cell proliferation.
Estrogen affects hair growth and skin cell multiplication.
research Ligand-Independent Actions of the Vitamin D Receptor Maintain Hair Follicle Homeostasis
The vitamin D receptor is essential for normal hair growth, even without its usual binding.
research Historical and Current Adenosine Receptor Agonists in Preclinical and Clinical Development
The document concludes that adenosine receptor agonists have potential for treating various conditions, but only a few are approved due to challenges like side effects and the need for selective activation.
research The Distribution of Estrogen Receptor β Is Distinct to That of Estrogen Receptor α and the Androgen Receptor in Human Skin and the Pilosebaceous Unit
Estrogen Receptor ß (ERß) is the main hormone controller in human skin and hair follicles, not Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) or the Androgen Receptor (AR).
research Design, Synthesis, and Biological Characterization of Metabolically Stable Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators
Researchers developed new compounds that target the androgen receptor effectively with fewer side effects.
research The role of androgen and androgen receptor in skin-related disorders
Targeting androgen receptors could be a promising way to treat skin disorders with fewer side effects.
research Cultured dermal papilla cells from androgen-dependent human hair follicles (e.g. beard) contain more androgen receptors than those from non-balding areas of scalp
Beard hair follicles have more androgen receptors than non-balding scalp hair follicles.
research Distribution and number of epidermal growth factor receptors in skin is related to epithelial cell growth
EGF receptors are crucial for skin cell growth and decrease with age.
research Skeletal Site-Dependent Expression of the Androgen Receptor in Human Osteoblastic Cell Populations
Higher androgen levels and site-specific AR expression cause sex-related skeletal differences, and certain steroids can boost AR expression and androgen effects in bone cells.
research A role of melatonin in neuroectodermal‐mesodermal interactions: the hair follicle synthesizes melatonin and expresses functional melatonin receptors
Hair follicles produce and respond to melatonin, affecting hair growth and sensitivity to estrogen.
research Frizzled Receptors in Development and Disease
Frizzled receptors are essential for various body development processes and maintaining certain body functions.
research Activation of Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid-3 Inhibits Human Hair Growth
Activating TRPV3 stops human hair growth.
