research Regulation of masculinization: androgen signalling for external genitalia development
Male genital development is driven by androgen signaling and understanding it could help address congenital anomalies.
research 5α-Reductase underscores the development of pectoral fin breeding tubercles in zebrafish
The development of breeding tubercles in male zebrafish relies on a specific enzyme that processes hormones.
research Developmental origin of polycystic ovary syndrome - a hypothesis
The hypothesis suggests that PCOS may start early in life due to genetic and environmental factors, influencing future reproductive and metabolic problems.
research Wnt Signaling in Skin Development, Homeostasis, and Disease
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin development and health, and its disruption can cause skin diseases.
research WNT10A Mutations Are a Frequent Cause of a Broad Spectrum of Ectodermal Dysplasias with Sex-Biased Manifestation Pattern in Heterozygotes
WNT10A mutations often cause ectodermal dysplasias, with males showing more tooth issues than females.
research Effects of Sex Steroid Deprivation/Administration on Hair Growth and Skin Sebum Production in Transsexual Males and Females
Hormone treatments in transsexual individuals reduce hair growth and oil production in male-to-females and increase them in female-to-males.

Men generally have more severe COVID-19 cases and higher death rates than women due to biological differences.
research Sex differences in COVID-19: the role of androgens in disease severity and progression
Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.
research Critical Developmental Periods for Effects on Male Rat Genitalia Induced by Finasteride, a 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
Finasteride affects male rat genitalia development, causing abnormalities during specific pregnancy days.
research Low sex hormone-binding globulin is associated with low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and metabolic syndrome in women with PCOS
Women with PCOS who have low SHBG are more likely to have low good cholesterol and metabolic syndrome.
research Sex steroid synthesis in human skin in situ: The roles of aromatase and steroidogenic acute regulatory protein in the homeostasis of human skin
Human skin produces sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, influenced by ARO and StAR, which may affect skin elasticity and hair growth.
research Endocrine care of transpeople part I. A review of cross-sex hormonal treatments, outcomes and adverse effects in transmen
Testosterone therapy is generally safe for transmen, improves sexual function, and has manageable health risks with proper monitoring.
research Development and Validation of a Quality of Life Measurement for Chronic Skin Disorders in French: VQ-Dermato
The VQ-Dermato is a reliable French questionnaire for measuring quality of life in chronic skin disorder patients.
research Animal Models and the Developmental Origins of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Increasing Evidence for the Role of Androgens in Programming Reproductive and Metabolic Dysfunction
High levels of androgens during early development may cause PCOS-like symptoms.
research Are sex discordant outcomes in COVID-19 related to sex hormones?
Sex hormones may affect COVID-19 severity, with men often faring worse, and targeting related pathways could offer treatment options.
research Sex hormones and sarcopenia in older persons
Sex hormone treatments can increase muscle mass in older adults but have inconsistent effects on muscle function and may carry cardiovascular risks.
research Sex hormones modulate pathogenic processes in experimental traumatic brain injury
Sex hormones affect brain injury differently in males and females.
research Sex-bias in COVID-19-associated illness severity and mortality in cancer patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Male cancer patients have a higher risk of severe illness and death from COVID-19 than female patients.
research Unchanged androgen-binding properties of sex hormone-binding globulin in male patients with liver cirrhosis
SHBG binding properties are unchanged in male liver cirrhosis patients.
research Status of sex reassignment surgery for gender identity disorder in Japan
In Japan, sex reassignment surgery for gender identity disorder faces challenges and needs better medical support and education.
research Expression of Sex-Determining Genes in the Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Sex-determining genes may affect male baldness.
research Recent Developments in the Treatment of Obesity with Particular Reference to Semistarvation Ketogenic Regimens
The document concludes that a high-protein, low-carb diet can lead to significant weight loss but requires caution and further research.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research The serum evaluation of sex hormones including DHEAs, DHT, testosterone in oral lichen planus patients
Sex hormones do not cause oral lichen planus.
