Genetic differences within ethnic groups may affect prostate cancer treatment effectiveness.

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.

Anabolic-androgenic steroid use in active men can cause serious health issues, especially affecting the heart, hormones, and mental health.

The method accurately measures steroid hormones in hair to study hormone dynamics related to hair loss.

Methotrexate with steroids is slightly more effective than azathioprine with steroids for treating severe alopecia areata.

Tacrolimus causes fewer acute rejections than cyclosporin A in kidney transplants but doesn't necessarily improve kidney function after one year; cardiovascular risks and side effects vary between the two drugs.

Most dogs with alopecia had higher than normal levels of certain hormones, but hair loss might not always be linked to these hormone changes.

Spironolactone is better than placebo for reducing excessive hair growth in women, but its effectiveness for acne is unclear due to small study sizes.

New tests detect finasteride and dutasteride in urine quickly and easily.

Finasteride treatment changes urine metabolomics and steroid signatures, potentially monitoring effectiveness but may cause sexual side effects.

Serum steroid profiling, especially 11-deoxycortisol, helps distinguish between adrenocortical carcinoma and adenoma, considering sex and functional status.

Low testosterone may increase COVID-19 severity in men.

Changing neuroactive steroids in baby male rats affects their memory and learning differently as they grow up.

Low dose finasteride decreases certain steroids, possibly increasing depression risk.

Anabolic steroids harm the heart, liver, hormones, muscles, and mental health.

A new method accurately measures nine steroid hormones in human serum with high sensitivity.

Anabolic steroids can build muscle and strength but have risks and need more research on their clinical benefits and side effects.

Neuroactive steroids show promise for treating mental and neurological disorders by targeting GABA_A receptors.

Taking Saw palmetto and Pygeum africana can change the levels of certain steroids in urine, which could cause confusion in doping tests.

Flutamide and a new synthetic steroid affected brain and prostate chemicals and showed potential for treating androgen-related conditions and epilepsy.

Neuroactive steroids affect cocaine's rewarding effects through the ς₁ receptor.

New targets for making and using brain-synthesized steroids could lead to better treatments for brain disorders and alcoholism.

Human skin produces sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, influenced by ARO and StAR, which may affect skin elasticity and hair growth.

Glioblastoma cells can make androgens, which might help the tumor grow.

Neuroactive steroids may affect the risk and treatment of alcohol use disorders.

Genetics and hormones play a role in male and female hair loss, but more research is needed to fully understand it.

Certain steroids in the brain affect mood and symptoms of depression, and treatments targeting these steroids show promise for improving these symptoms.

Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.

Neuroactive steroids could become safe, effective treatments with more understanding of their complex brain actions and metabolism.

Human sebaceous glands contain enzymes that affect androgen production and may influence sebum production and acne.
