A postmenopausal woman's masculine symptoms improved after surgery for a hormone-producing ovarian tumor.
research A rare case of an androgen-producing stromal luteoma of the ovary in a postmenopausal woman, diagnosed by means of selective venous blood sampling
Doctors used a special blood sampling technique to diagnose a woman's rare ovarian tumor that was producing male hormones.
research Vitamin D and the skin: Physiology and pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research RANK as a therapeutic target in cancer
RANK is a key target in breast cancer treatment due to its role in tumor growth and bone metastasis.
research Hepatic Adenoma in an Adolescent With Elevated Androgen Levels
A teenage girl with high androgen levels and PCOS developed a rare liver tumor, suggesting a possible link between high androgens and the tumor's growth.
research Glioblastoma cells express crucial enzymes involved in androgen synthesis: 3β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, 17‐20α‐hydroxylase, 17β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and 5α‐reductase

research OPIS PRZYPADKU RZADKIEGO SAMOTNEGO WŁÓKNISTEGO GUZA KOŚCI KRZYŻOWEJ
Pre-surgical embolization and a two-stage resection improve outcomes for rare sacral tumors.
research Androgen receptor activation integrates complex transcriptional effects in osteoblasts, involving the growth factors TGF-β and IGF-I, and transcription factor C/EBPδ
DHT affects bone growth by altering gene activity in osteoblasts, potentially complicating steroid use.
research LP-161 Tjalma syndrome (Pseudo-Pseudo Meigs Syndrome): polyserositis with increased CA-125 in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus
Tjalma Syndrome is a rare condition in people with lupus, causing fluid buildup and high CA-125 levels, but not due to tumors.
research Melatonin Receptors and Their Role in Human Diseases
Melatonin receptors, found in many body parts, can help treat various diseases like depression and diabetes due to their effects on inflammation, tumor progression, sleep disorders, and body mass regulation.
research Biological activity of novel progesterone derivatives having a bulky ester side chains at C-3
The more lipophilic the progesterone derivative, the better it binds to androgen receptors and has antiandrogenic effects.
research Obstructive Sleep Apnea Due to Endogenous Testosterone Production in a Woman
Removing a testosterone-producing tumor cured a woman's sleep apnea and other symptoms.
research Progesterone Inhibits the Growth of Human Neuroblastoma: In Vitro and In Vivo Evidence
Progesterone significantly reduces neuroblastoma tumor growth without harming healthy cells.
research Development of prostate cancer in a patient with primary hypogonadism: intratumoural steroidogenesis in prostate cancer tissues
Prostate cancer can progress even with low testosterone due to internal hormone production in the tumor.
research Long-Term Effects of Sirolimus on Human Skin TSC2-Null Fibroblast‒Like Cells
Sirolimus can reduce tumor cell size in TSC-related skin tumors, but continuous treatment is needed to maintain benefits.
research Open-Label, Randomized, Multicenter, Phase III Study Comparing Oral Paclitaxel Plus Encequidar Versus Intravenous Paclitaxel in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer
Oral paclitaxel plus encequidar improved tumor response and caused less neuropathy but more serious infections than intravenous paclitaxel.
research Pituitary Dependent Hyperadrenocorticism in a Golden Lion Tamarin (Leontopithecus rosalia)
A golden lion tamarin had Cushing's disease due to a pituitary tumor, leading to its euthanasia.
research Virilizing adrenocortical oncocytoma in a toddler
A toddler with a rare adrenal gland tumor causing male-like physical changes was successfully treated with surgery.
research Incidental Syringomas of the Scalp in a Patient with Scarring Alopecia
A woman with unexplained hair loss was found to have harmless skin tumors and a scarring hair loss condition, but the tumors didn't cause the hair loss.
research A rare case of Cushing syndrome with virilization
A 10-year-old girl's symptoms improved after surgery to remove a benign adrenal tumor.
research Physiopathological role of the enzymatic complex 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase in the generation of progesterone and testosterone neuroactive metabolites
The enzymes 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase help create brain-active substances from progesterone and testosterone, which could be used for treatment, but more research is needed to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
research Synthesis and structure–activity investigation of iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins for development as androgen receptor radioligands
Scientists created iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins that could potentially be used for imaging prostate cancer. Some versions with specific side-chains showed high potential for this use.
