Research
240-270 / 1000+ results research Gender-specific alteration of steroid metabolism and its impact on viral replication in a mouse model of hepatitis B virus infection
Hepatitis B virus alters steroid hormones in male mice, reducing dihydrotestosterone to inhibit viral replication.
research Serum dihydrotestosterone levels are associated with adverse myocardial remodeling in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis before and after aortic valve replacement
Higher DHT levels are linked to worse heart changes in severe aortic valve stenosis patients.
research Tofacitinib: A Promising Treatment for Adolescent Alopecia Areata
Tofacitinib may be an effective and safe treatment for hair loss in teenagers with alopecia areata.
research Untargeted metabolomic approach to study the serum metabolites in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Certain metabolites may help diagnose and predict polycystic ovary syndrome.
research The Mechanisms of Anabolic Steroids, Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators and Myostatin Inhibitors
Anabolic steroids boost muscle growth, SARMs increase muscle mass and bone density without side effects, and myostatin inhibitors block a protein that stops muscle growth, but each has potential risks.
research Prolonged use of finasteride-induced gonadal sex steroids alterations, DNA damage and menstrual bleeding in women
Long-term use of finasteride in women can cause hormonal changes, DNA damage, and menstrual issues.
research Bilateral ovarian steroid cell tumor in a postmenopausal woman with progressive hyperandrogenism
Surgery removed ovarian tumors, normalizing testosterone and improving symptoms.
research Predictive Metagenomic Profiling, Urine Metabolomics, and Human Marker Gene Expression as an Integrated Approach to Study Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata may be linked to scalp microbiome differences, suggesting potential treatments with prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics.
research Steroid Sulfatase in the Human Hair Follicle Concentrates in the Dermal Papilla
Steroid sulfatase in hair follicles may be a target for treating hair loss.
research Differential expression of steroid 5α-reductase isozymes and association with disease severity and angiogenic genes predict their biological role in prostate cancer
SRD5A1 is crucial in advanced prostate cancer, and blocking both SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 is more effective than targeting SRD5A2 alone.
research 5α-Reductase inhibitors, antiviral and anti-tumor activities of some steroidal cyanopyridinone derivatives
Some newly made compounds are promising for treating enlarged prostate, hair loss, viruses, and prostate cancer, and might be better than current drugs.
research A Promising Efficacy of Tofacitinib in an Adult Patient with Alopecia Areata
Tofacitinib effectively treated severe hair loss in a patient who didn't respond to other treatments.
research Neurosteroids in Adult Hippocampus of Male and Female Rodents: Biosynthesis and Actions of Sex Steroids
Sex steroids produced in the hippocampus are crucial for brain functions like memory and learning in rodents.
research Hair-Based Assessment of Sex Steroid Hormones in Patients with Anorexia Nervosa
Hair analysis shows low progesterone in anorexia patients, unchanged by short-term weight gain.
research Ovarian vein sampling, and serum and urine testosterone monitoring in ovarian Leydig cell tumors: A report of two cases
Ovarian vein sampling helped diagnose rare ovarian tumors causing high testosterone, and surgery to remove the tumors lowered the testosterone levels.
research Innovative Reports on the Effects of Anabolic Androgenic Steroid Abuse—How to Lose Your Mind for the Love of Sport
Abusing steroids can damage your heart, muscles, reproductive system, liver, skin, and brain, and may increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease.
research Mechanism of action of bolandiol (19-nortestosterone-3β,17β-diol), a unique anabolic steroid with androgenic, estrogenic, and progestational activities
Bolandiol, a synthetic steroid, builds muscle and bone without greatly affecting sex glands, and works differently from other hormones.
research Changes in the serum metabolomics of polycystic ovary syndrome before and after compound oral contraceptive treatment
COC treatment improves hormone and metabolic levels in PCOS patients.
research Review of applications of microneedling in dermatology
Microneedling is promising for treating various skin issues but needs more research to confirm its effectiveness and safety.
research Regulatory Effects of Thai Rice By-Product Extracts from Oryza sativa L. cv. Bue Bang 3 CMU and Bue Bang 4 CMU on Melanin Production, Nitric Oxide Secretion, and Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibition
BB4CMU rice bran oil may help treat hair loss and gray hair.
research Serum Prolactin Levels in Adult Females with Telogen Effluvium: A Case Control Study
Women with a certain type of hair loss had lower levels of a hormone called prolactin compared to healthy women.
research Review of Promising Off-Label Use of Deucravacitinib
Deucravacitinib may help treat various immune diseases beyond psoriasis, but more research is needed.
research Effects of mitotane treatment on human steroid metabolism: implications for patient management
Mitotane changes steroid breakdown, affecting cortisol availability.
research A quantitative ultra-performance liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis of steroids from human scalp hair
The method can measure multiple steroids in human hair to study long-term steroid metabolism, especially in newborns and children.
research Are sex hormones promising candidates to explain sex disparities in the COVID-19 pandemic?
Sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone may affect COVID-19 severity differently in men and women, potentially influencing prevention and treatment strategies.
research The profile of steroid hormones in human fetal and adult ovaries
Fetal ovaries produce different hormones than adult ovaries, and endocrine-disrupting chemicals may affect this process.
research Roles of steroid receptors in the lung and COVID-19
Sex hormones may influence COVID-19 severity, with males at higher risk, and certain hormone therapies could potentially treat the virus.
