A new method was developed to measure and assess the activity and inhibition of the enzyme steroid 5α-reductase.

The activity of a specific rat enzyme in the prostate and epididymis is highly dependent on the acidity level.

Azathioprine is the most continued treatment for chronic alopecia areata over a year, often with added low-dose prednisolone.

Hair growth is regulated by a combination of hormones, blood vessels, and nerve signals.

Fetal ovaries produce different hormones than adult ovaries, and endocrine-disrupting chemicals may affect this process.

A new method accurately measures steroid hormones in a few hair strands and could help study chronic stress and hair loss.

Use lower concentrations of triamcinolone acetonide to reduce steroid-induced scalp atrophy.

Mycophenolate mofetil helped reduce steroid use in treating a dog's autoimmune skin disease.

Measuring 17-hydroxyprogesterone in hair can help monitor androgen levels in people with congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

A woman's masculine symptoms were caused by an ovarian tumor, which improved after surgery.

Sex hormones may influence COVID-19 severity, with males at higher risk, and certain hormone therapies could potentially treat the virus.

Diet changes hormone levels in pregnant ewes by affecting metabolism, not placental synthesis.

Finasteride doesn't affect antipyrine metabolism, so interactions with cytochrome P-450 enzyme drugs are unlikely.

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

The method accurately measures 19 steroid hormones in human blood and urine using a small sample and is suitable for large-scale monitoring.

A young woman's symptoms suggested PCOS, but tests and surgery confirmed and treated a rare ovarian tumor, resolving her condition.

Steroid 5α-reductase evolved from protists and diversified in eukaryotes, with specific roles in mammals and plants.

The method can measure multiple hormones in women's hair and may help identify hormone-related health issues.

Cortisol and corticosterone thin mouse skin and regress hair follicles, while testosterone promotes skin and hair development.

Biodegradable microneedle patches help topical steroids work better for prurigo nodularis.

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

The enzyme 5α-reductase type 1 is important for blood vessel development and fertility in the uterus.

PFOS exposure disrupts hormone levels and enzyme activities in juvenile frogs, affecting males and females differently.

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

Certain hormones can reduce skin oil and hair growth, potentially helping treat acne and excessive hair in women.

Prednisolone can quickly regrow hair in alopecia universalis, but hair falls out after stopping it.

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.
