research Supplementary Material for: Dexamethasone, a synthetic glucocorticoid, induces the activity of androgen receptor in human dermal papilla cells
Dexamethasone increases androgen receptor activity in scalp cells, which might explain stress-related hair loss.
research Three Considerations Before Advising 5-α-Reductase Inhibitors for Chemoprevention
5-α-reductase inhibitors don't prevent prostate cancer but may reduce unnecessary biopsies.
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 Comment: GENETIC ANALYSIS OF 5 α REDUCTASE TYPE II ENZYME IN RELATION TO OXIDATIVE STRESS IN CASES OF ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA IN A SAMPLE OF EGYPTIAN POPULATION
research 1410 Non-coding double stranded RNA induces retinoic acid synthesis and retinoid signaling to control regeneration
Double-stranded RNA helps regenerate hair follicles by increasing retinoic acid production and signaling.
research Membrane androgen receptors may mediate androgen reinforcement
Androgen self-administration might be controlled by membrane receptors, not nuclear ones.
research Anti-androgenic curcumin analogues as steroid 5-alpha reductase inhibitors
Some curcumin-like compounds can effectively and safely block the enzyme linked to hair loss and other conditions related to male hormones.
research The effect of finasteride, a 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor, on scalp skin testosterone and dihydrotestosterone concentrations in patients with male pattern baldness
research Defects in Androgen Biosynthesis Causing 46,XY Disorders of Sexual Development

research 1116 Novel androgen receptor degrader for androgenetic alopecia (AGA) application
A new treatment for hair loss shows promise with fewer side effects.
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 Effect of Sparasis crispa Extract on 5α-Reductase Gene in Dermal Papilla Cells
Cauliflower Mushroom extract may help treat male hair loss by affecting hair growth-related genes.
research Serum androgen bioactivity is low in children with premature adrenarche
research Inhibition of 5α-reductase attenuates behavioral effects of D1-, but not D2-like receptor agonists in C57BL/6 mice
Finasteride reduces certain behaviors caused by D1-like receptor agonists but not by D2-like receptor agonists in mice.
research 12-Methoxy Carnosic acid efficacy determinationand optimization through computational tools for 5alpha reductase enzyme and using finasteride as refrence molecule.
12-Methoxy carnosic acid from rosemary might be a good natural treatment for hair loss.
research Androgen regulation of a specific gene in hamster flank organs
Male hormones control a specific gene in hamster skin, with different hormones having varying effects.
research Prostate cancer and androgenic alopecia
The document suggests more research is needed to understand the link between baldness and prostate cancer.
research Expression and roles of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein in ‘non-classical’, extra-adrenal and extra-gonadal cells and tissues
The protein StAR is found in 17 different organs and can affect hair loss and brain functions, but its full role is not yet fully understood.
research Urological Oncology: Prostate Cancer
Male pattern baldness may be linked to prostate cancer risk.
research Non-competitive androgen receptor inhibition in vitro and in vivo
Two new compounds can block androgen receptor activity in different ways and may lead to new treatments for androgen-related diseases.
research Cardiovascular Toxicities of Androgen Deprivation Therapy
ADT for prostate cancer may harm the heart, but GnRH antagonists might be safer.
research Chronic Exposure of 5‐Alpha Reductase Inhibitor in Young Male Rats Induces Not Only Metabolic Disturbance, But Also Depressive‐Like Behaviors as Similar with Obese Condition
Long-term use of a drug for hair loss and prostate issues can cause metabolic problems and depression-like behavior in young male rats.
research Finasteride/testosterone
