research 409 ANDROGEN RECEPTOR GENE POLYMORPHISM (SNP RS6152) – ITS RELATIONSHIP TO ANDROGEN-SENSITIVE GENES EXPRESSION IN BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA, CARCINOMA OF THE PROSTATE AND ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
Gene variation affects prostate issues and hair loss.
research An intergenerational androgenic mechanism of female intrasexual competition in the cooperatively breeding meerkat
Androgens in female meerkats influence aggression and dominance, affecting social dynamics and offspring behavior.
research Steroid 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency in man: An inherited form of male pseudohermaphroditism
Affected males are born with ambiguous genitalia, raised as females, but develop male traits at puberty due to enzyme deficiency.
research A Teenage Girl with Unexpected Pubertal Changes
The girl's unexpected pubic hair growth led to a diagnosis different from complete androgen insensitivity syndrome.
research Identification of Anabolic Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators with Reduced Activities in Reproductive Tissues and Sebaceous Glands
Two new compounds were found to build bone and muscle without affecting reproductive organs and skin oil glands.
research Androgen Signaling in Sertoli Cells
Androgens regulate Sertoli cells and affect fertility through specific receptors and coregulators.
research SAHA syndrome: female androgenetic alopecia and hirsutism.
research Different phenotypes in a family with androgen insensitivity caused by the same M780I point mutation in the androgen receptor gene.
The same gene mutation can cause different symptoms in family members.
research Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome associated with androgen insensitivity syndrome (testicular feminization)
A woman had both Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, causing hair loss, and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, making her genetically male but physically female. This suggests androgens don't affect the hair loss condition.
research Clinical evolution of alopecia areata with a male androgenetic alopecia pattern to sisaipho.
A 16-year-old boy's alopecia areata progressed unusually to resemble male pattern baldness.
research Modelling androgen synthesis and action during human sexual differentiation
Male sexual differentiation is regulated independently, while female differentiation occurs in an androgenic environment, affecting conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Selective androgen receptor modulators: a critical appraisal
SARMs show promise but need more evidence to prove they're better than traditional androgens.
research Androgenetic alopecia in the stump-tailed macaque
research Regional Variation in Androgen Receptor Expression and Biomechanical Properties May Contribute to Cryptorchidism Susceptibility in the LE/orl Rat
Differences in androgen receptor expression and tissue properties may lead to higher cryptorchidism risk in certain rats.
research The Molecular Basis of Androgen Insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, affecting sexual development.
research Abordagens psicológicas e novas terapêuticas perante as escolhas do paciente portador da Síndrome de Morris
Patients with Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome need psychological support and multidisciplinary care for complex treatment decisions.
research Testosterone metabolites differentially maintain adult morphology in a sexually dimorphic neuromuscular system
Androgens are essential for maintaining adult neuromuscular structure.
research Adrenal and Gonadal Activity, Androgen Concentrations, and Adult Height Outcomes in Boys With Silver-Russell Syndrome
Higher androgen levels during puberty are linked to shorter adult height in boys with Silver-Russell syndrome.
research Restoration of Spermatogenesis and Male Fertility Using an Androgen Receptor Transgene
Scientists restored fertility in male mice lacking a key fertility gene by using a modified gene.
research Probing androgen receptor co-factor selectivity profiles: a chemical tool to determine cross-talk between androgen receptor and β-catenin in vivo
PF-05314882 selectively activates androgen receptors without much effect on prostate and may help in prostate cancer treatment and hair loss prevention.
research Androgens in female pig reproduction: actions mediated by the androgen receptor
Androgens may improve pig reproduction by enhancing ovulation and litter size.
research The regeneration of caudal epidermal specializations inLygodactylus picturatus keniensis (gekkonidae, Lacertilia)
Lizards can regrow their tail scales with the same structure, distribution, and gender-specific features as the original ones, and this unique ability is not seen in adult mammals.
research Male pseudohermaphroditism due to 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency: Studies on the natural history of the defect and effect of androgens on gender role
Individuals with this condition often develop male traits and identities at puberty despite being raised as females.
research Improving selective androgen receptor modulator discovery and preclinical evaluation
We need better ways to test and understand SARMs to make safer and more effective treatments.
research Piebaldism in tree shrews
research Fadrozole and finasteride exposures modulate sex steroid- and thyroid hormone-related gene expression in Silurana (Xenopus) tropicalis early larval development
Fadrozole and finasteride change gene expression related to sex hormones and thyroid hormones in frog larvae development.
research An adolescent girl presenting with primary amenorrhea: A case report of complete androgen insensitivity syndrome
A 15-year-old girl with no menstrual period was diagnosed with a genetic condition that makes her body unable to respond to male hormones, leading to female characteristics despite having male genetic makeup.
research Immunocytochemical Localization of Androgen Receptors in the Scalp of the Stumptail Macaque Monkey, a Model of Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgen receptors found in monkey scalps, similar to humans, affect hair growth.
research Sex Reversal in Birds
Both genetic and hormonal factors are crucial for bird sex differentiation, and disturbances can cause sex reversal.
