Some hair loss and prostate drugs might increase the risk of diabetes and heart disease.
research Discovery of Natural Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors
Natural herbal compounds might treat certain medical conditions by reducing DHT levels, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Measurement of steroid hormones by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry with small amounts of hair
A new method accurately measures steroid hormones in a few hair strands and could help study chronic stress and hair loss.
research A Case of Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Scalp After Several Synthetic Hair Grafts
A man developed skin cancer on his scalp after multiple artificial hair grafts.
research Steroid Hormones
Steroid hormones are crucial for body functions and have various medical uses, but their misuse can lead to dependence.

research Rare Diagnosis of a Proliferating Pilar Tumor in a Facial Hairline Cryst
The lump on a woman's scalp was a rare, potentially cancerous tumor from the hair follicle, not a common cyst.
research A new way to restore tumour suppressor function
New treatments may restore cancer-blocking proteins, slow prostate cancer, identify drug targets, and potentially regrow hair.
research Risk of Abnormal Pregnancy Completing Chemotherapy for Gestational Trophoblastic Tumor
After chemotherapy for a gestational trophoblastic tumor, normal pregnancy rates are possible, but there's a slightly higher risk of the tumor reoccurring in future pregnancies.
research Stem cell activity shapes the pleiotropic effects of IFN-γ and TGF-β in autoimmune diseases, infections, and cancer, and drives autoimmune flares and remissions
Stem cell activity influences autoimmune disease outcomes by affecting immune responses and tissue regeneration.
research Post-transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
miR-22, a type of microRNA, controls hair growth and its overproduction can cause hair loss, while its absence can speed up hair growth.
research WNT10A mutation causes ectodermal dysplasia by impairing progenitor cell proliferation and KLF4-mediated differentiation
A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.
research Targeting host cell proteases as a potential treatment strategy to limit the spread of SARS‐CoV‐2 in the respiratory tract
Blocking enzymes that help the virus enter cells could be a promising way to treat COVID-19.
research Intraethnic variation in steroid-5-alpha-reductase polymorphisms in prostate cancer patients: a potential factor implicated in 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor treatment
Genetic differences within ethnic groups may affect prostate cancer treatment effectiveness.
research Progenitor‐cell‐enriched micrografts as a novel option for the management of androgenetic alopecia
Micrografts promote hair growth in androgenetic alopecia treatment.
research New steps forward in the neuroactive steroid field
Neuroactive steroids could become safe, effective treatments with more understanding of their complex brain actions and metabolism.
research Neurosteroidogenesis Today: Novel Targets for Neuroactive Steroid Synthesis and Action and Their Relevance for Translational Research

Autologous platelet concentrates can effectively treat oral lichen planus like topical steroids.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
