research Neurosteroid Synthesis-Mediated Regulation of GABAAReceptors: Relevance to the Ovarian Cycle and Stress
Ovarian and stress hormones can change GABA A receptors through neurosteroids.
research Interaction of spironolactone with rat skin androgen receptor
Spironolactone reduces the number of androgen receptor sites in rat skin by blocking them with its metabolite.
research Epitestosterone—an endogenous antiandrogen?
Epitestosterone may act as a weak antiandrogen and can inhibit an enzyme involved in testosterone metabolism.
research A novel actor in skin biology: the mineralocorticoid receptor
Blocking the mineralocorticoid receptor can help treat skin thinning caused by steroids.
research The pivotal role of PDGF and its receptor isoforms in adipose-derived stem cells.
PDGF and its receptors are crucial for stem cell growth and function.
research 013 Prostaglandin D2 enhances testosterone metabolism by ROS-mediated altered redox potential in keratinocytes
Prostaglandin D2 increases testosterone production in skin cells through a process involving reactive oxygen species, which could be a new target for treating hair loss and other skin conditions driven by testosterone.
research Roles of Type 10 17beta-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase in Intracrinology and Metabolism of Isoleucine and Fatty Acids
This enzyme helps metabolize fatty acids and isoleucine, and could be key in treating neurological diseases and certain cancers.
research Why steroids may not always work in alopecia areata: elevated unoccupied glucocorticoid receptors and decreased levels of thioredoxin
Steroids may not work well for alopecia areata because of high unoccupied receptors and low thioredoxin levels.
research A comprehensive investigation into the molecular mechanism responsible for selective androgen receptor (SARM) tissue-selectivity
SARMs work differently in tissues due to unique interactions and structures.
research Ornithine decarboxylase is upregulated by the androgen receptor in skeletal muscle and regulates myoblast proliferation
Androgens increase muscle mass by promoting myoblast growth through ornithine decarboxylase.
research Central 5-alpha reduction of testosterone is required for testosterone's inhibition of the hypothalamo-pituitary–adrenal axis response to restraint stress in adult male rats
Testosterone needs to be converted to DHT to reduce stress response in male rats.
research Steroid sulfatase inhibitors
Steroid sulfatase inhibitors could potentially treat hormone-related disorders like certain cancers, hair loss, acne, and improve cognitive dysfunction.
research AN ATTEMPT TO ASSESS THE MAGNITUDE OF ENDOGENOUS ANDROGEN PRODUCTION IN A CASE OF THE ADRENOGENITAL SYNDROME*
A 17-year-old female with adrenogenital syndrome produces very high levels of androgens, which prevent complete feminization despite high estrogen doses.
research 25 years of ERβ: a personal journey
ERβ has potential in treating prostate cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, but human studies are needed before clinical use.
research Increased CRHR1 expression on monocytes from patients with AA enables a pro‐inflammatory response to corticotrophin‐releasing hormone
Higher CRHR1 levels in AA patients lead to increased inflammation.
research 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitor
5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors reduce the effects of testosterone by blocking its conversion into a stronger form.
research Determination Method for Steroid 5α-Reductase Activity Using Liquid Chromatography/Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Ionization–Mass Spectrometry
A new method was developed to measure and assess the activity and inhibition of the enzyme steroid 5α-reductase.
research Dihydrotestosterone, and Not Testosterone, Enhances the LPS-Induced Inflammatory Cytokine Gene Expression in Human Adipocytes
Dihydrotestosterone boosts inflammation in fat cells more than testosterone.

Blocking 5α-reductase can reduce sleep deprivation-related behavioral issues in rats.
research Functions of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptors (PPAR) in skin homeostasis
PPARs help regulate skin health and could be used to treat skin disorders.
research Patent Evaluation: Δ-4,6-Steroids as Potent 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New steroids were patented as effective for treating acne, hair loss, and other conditions related to hormones.
research In Silico Screening of DrugBank Compounds as Potential Inhibitors for Human Steroid 5α-Reductase 2 for Androgen-Related Diseases
Stiripentol shows promise as a potential treatment for androgen-related diseases but needs more testing.
research Selective androgen receptor modulators: a critical appraisal
SARMs show promise but need more evidence to prove they're better than traditional androgens.
research Changes in expression of the δ subunit of the GABAAreceptor and in receptor function induced by progesterone exposure and withdrawal
