research Chapter 17. Selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs)
Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) are drugs that can control the effects of androgens in different tissues, potentially having fewer side effects and promising for treating various conditions.
research Identification of Anabolic Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators with Reduced Activities in Reproductive Tissues and Sebaceous Glands
Two new compounds were found to build bone and muscle without affecting reproductive organs and skin oil glands.
research The Mechanisms of Anabolic Steroids, Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators and Myostatin Inhibitors
Anabolic steroids boost muscle growth, SARMs increase muscle mass and bone density without side effects, and myostatin inhibitors block a protein that stops muscle growth, but each has potential risks.
research Anabolic potential of bone mineral in human periosteal fibroblasts using steroid markers of healing
Bone mineral and minocycline boost bone cell growth, aiding healing.
research Steroid Hormones of Reproduction and Sexual Development
Sex hormones affect reproduction, sexual development, and oral health, and it's important for dental practitioners to understand their effects and interactions.
research Crystal Structure and Synthesis of 17α-Acetoxy-4-bromopregn-4-ene-3,20-dione

research In silico screening of effective inhibitor of 5α-reductase type 1 for androgenic alopecia treatment
β-sitosterol and brassicasterol may help treat hair loss.
research Testosterone modulation of seizure susceptibility is mediated by neurosteroids 3α-androstanediol and 17β-estradiol
Testosterone increases seizure risk through its conversion to specific neurosteroids.
research The Antiandrogenic Action of 4–Androsten–3–one–17β– Carboxylic Acid and Its Methyl Ester on Hamster Flank Organ1
The chemicals 17βC and its methyl ester can block the effects of testosterone on hamster skin but not the effects of DHT.
research Prostaglandin metabolism in human hair follicle
Human hair follicles can make and process prostaglandins, which may affect hair growth.
research Dependence of anxiolytic effects of the dipeptide TSPO ligand GD-23 on neurosteroid biosynthesis
GD-23 reduces anxiety by relying on neurosteroid production.
research Cyclic Changes in the Metabolism of Estradiol by Rat Skin During the Hair Cycle**From the Departments of Dermatology and Biochemistry. University of Miami School of Medicine. Miami, Florida, 33136.
research Different synaptic stimulation patterns influence the local androgenic and estrogenic neurosteroid availability triggering hippocampal synaptic plasticity in the male rat
The availability of certain hormones and specific stimulation patterns affect long-term synaptic changes in the male rat brain.
research 11-Oxyandrogens in Adolescents With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Girls with PCOS have higher levels of certain androgens, which are linked to excess hair growth, but these androgens don't help diagnose PCOS.
research Sequence of the intron/exon junctions of the coding region of the human androgen receptor gene and identification of a point mutation in a family with complete androgen insensitivity.
A point mutation in the androgen receptor gene causes complete androgen insensitivity.
research Novel progestogenic androgens for male contraception: design, synthesis, and activity of C7 α-substituted testosterone
New testosterone analogs show promise for male contraception with better activity and potentially fewer side effects.
research The 5alpha-reductase type 1, but not type 2, gene is expressed in anagen hairs plucked from the vertex area of the scalp of hirsute women and normal individuals
The gene SDR5A1 is found in scalp hair of both hirsute and normal individuals, but it does not explain differences in hair growth.
research Health benefits attributed to 17α-estradiol, a lifespan-extending compound, are mediated through estrogen receptor α
17α-estradiol extends lifespan and improves metabolism in male mice through the estrogen receptor α.
research Molecular genetics of androgen insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.
