Hair steroid profiling is a feasible, non-invasive alternative to serum analysis for assessing hormone levels and metabolism.
research Clinical Case Seminar: Postmenopausal androgen excess-challenges in diagnostic work-up and management of ovarian thecosis
The conclusion is that removing both ovaries is the best treatment for excess male hormones in postmenopausal women, with medication as another option, and managing insulin resistance is important for diagnosis and treatment.
research Toward a Diagnostic Score in Cushing's Syndrome
The document suggests creating a validated score to diagnose Cushing's Syndrome and considers plasma steroid profiling as a simpler diagnostic method.
research Untargeted Metabolomics and Steroid Signatures in Urine of Male Pattern Baldness Patients after Finasteride Treatment for a Year
Finasteride treatment changes urine metabolomics and steroid signatures, potentially monitoring effectiveness but may cause sexual side effects.
research Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry based hair steroid profiling may reveal pathogenesis in hair follicles of the scalp
Analyzing hair with this method can help understand and monitor scalp conditions and treatment effects.
research Intracrine androgen biosynthesis, metabolism and action revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
research Influence of sex and functional status on the value of serum steroid profiling in discriminating adrenocortical carcinoma from adrenocortical adenoma
Serum steroid profiling, especially 11-deoxycortisol, helps distinguish between adrenocortical carcinoma and adenoma, considering sex and functional status.
research Hair Steroid Profiling Reveals Racial Differences in Male Pattern Baldness between Korean and Caucasian Populations
Korean and Caucasian men with male pattern baldness have different hair steroid levels.
research Urinary steroid metabolome shows adrenal, gonadal, and neuroactive steroid dysregulation in adolescents with depression
Depressed teens have different steroid levels in urine, which may help identify and treat them.
research Cloning, computational analysis and expression profiling of steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 (SRD5A1) gene during reproductive phases and ovatide stimulation in endangered catfish, Clarias magur
The research identified and described a gene important for hormone conversion in endangered catfish, which varies in activity during different reproductive stages and after hormone treatment.
research Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry-Based In Vitro Metabolic Profiling Reveals Altered Enzyme Expressions in Eicosanoid Metabolism
The method reliably profiles eicosanoids and shows epitestosterone reduces their levels, similar to common anti-inflammatory drugs.
research Hyperandrogenism, Elevated 17-Hydroxyprogesterone and Its Urinary Metabolites in a Young Woman with Ovarian Steroid Cell Tumor, Not Otherwise Specified: Case Report and Review of the Literature
A young woman's symptoms suggested PCOS, but tests and surgery confirmed and treated a rare ovarian tumor, resolving her condition.
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 Serum Metabolomics Study of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Based on Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry
Women with PCOS have different levels of certain fats and proteins in their blood, which could help diagnose the condition.
research Alterations in Pattern Baldness According to Sex: Hair Metabolomics Approach
Hair loss causes differ between men and women due to changes in hormone levels and inflammation-related pathways.
research Proteomic Profiling of Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia Reveals Role of Humoral Immune Response Pathway and Metabolic Dysregulation
CCCA involves immune response and metabolism issues, suggesting new treatment options.
