research Sex Hormones and Antiandrogens Influence In Vitro Growth of Dermal Papilla Cells and Outer Root Sheath Keratinocytes of Human Hair Follicles.
Certain sex hormones and antiandrogens can either slow down or speed up the growth of human hair follicle cells depending on their concentration.
research Androgen regulation of a specific gene in hamster flank organs
Male hormones control a specific gene in hamster skin, with different hormones having varying effects.
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 Hair Steroid Profiling Reveals Racial Differences in Male Pattern Baldness between Korean and Caucasian Populations
Korean and Caucasian men with male pattern baldness have different hair steroid levels.
research Effects of the anti-androgen finasteride on 5α-reduction of androgens in the presence of progesterone in human gingival fibroblasts: modulatory actions of the alkaline phosphatase inhibitor levamisole
Finasteride reduces testosterone conversion, progesterone lessens this, and levamisole enhances finasteride's effect.
research Androgen Effects in Mammals
Testosterone is crucial for development, growth, and various body functions in mammals.
research The role of androgens in hormone replacement therapy
Androgen therapy can help with symptoms like low libido in women, but more research is needed to understand its long-term safety and effects on health.
research Safety and Efficacy Assessment of Red Ginseng Oil (RXGIN) in Men with Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms in a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial
Red ginseng oil improves urinary symptoms and some sexual functions in men safely.
research Testicular Steroidogenesis
Genetic defects in testosterone production can cause hormonal and developmental disorders, and more research is needed to understand androgen regulation and develop safer treatments.
research Markers of peripheral androgen action in vivo and in vitro
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is crucial for conditions like male-pattern baldness and acne, and measuring a byproduct, androstanediol glucuronide, is a better way to assess DHT's effects than DHT blood levels.
research The role of pre-operative androgen stimulation in hypospadias surgery.
Pre-operative hormone treatment for hypospadias surgery might improve outcomes, but more research is needed to confirm.
research Alterations in Pattern Baldness According to Sex: Hair Metabolomics Approach
Hair loss causes differ between men and women due to changes in hormone levels and inflammation-related pathways.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
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.
research Mechanism of androgenic alopecia: Addressing speculations through empirical evidences
Hair loss in men is mainly caused by hormones and genes, and while current treatments can slow it down, they can't fully stop it.
research Germacrene Analogs are Anti-androgenic on Androgen-dependent Cells
Germacrene analogs, especially 8-Hydroxy germacrene B, are more effective than germacrone at blocking a hormone-related enzyme and could help treat hair loss.
research Discriminating in favour of or against men with increased risk of finasteride-related side effects?
Finasteride treats baldness but may cause lasting sexual side effects.
research Hirsutism and Virilization in the Female
The chapter explains the causes of excessive hair growth and masculinization in women and how to measure hormone levels related to these conditions.
research Androgen Receptor Ligands: Agonists and Antagonists
Different substances that activate or block the androgen receptor can affect male development and treat conditions like prostate cancer.
research The relation between androgenetic thin hair diagnosed by trichoscope and benign prostatic hyperplasia
Men with thinner hair from genetic hair loss may be more likely to have an enlarged prostate.
research Androgenetische Alopezie beim Mann . Male androgenetic alopecia
Male androgenetic alopecia involves hair follicle miniaturization due to DHT, with potential treatments using inhibitors and blockers.
research Pharmacologically altered Androgens, Brain Activation and Response Inhibition in a Stop-Signal Task in Male Heavy Drinkers
Lower DHT and higher testosterone levels increase brain activation but don't change behavior in heavy drinkers.
research African Journal of Biomedical Research
Olive leaves extract may help treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
research Altered Hormone and Bioactive Lipid Plasma Profile in Rodent Models of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Revealed by Targeted Mass Spectrometry
Rodent models of PCOS show some hormone changes similar to humans, but also have key differences.
research Effect of Fenugreek Extract on Testosterone Propionate-Induced Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Fenugreek extract may help treat benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Measurement of Steroid Hormones in Hair: an Analysis of Hormone Dynamics in Hair Follicles
The method accurately measures steroid hormones in hair to study hormone dynamics related to hair loss.
research Cloning, computational analysis and expression profiling of steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 (SRD5A1) gene during reproductive phases and ovatide stimulation in endangered catfish, Clarias magur
The research identified and described a gene important for hormone conversion in endangered catfish, which varies in activity during different reproductive stages and after hormone treatment.
research Preoperative hormonal stimulation in hypospadias: a systematic review
Hormone treatment before hypospadias surgery can increase penis size and reduce surgery complications.
research Highly Sensitive Simultaneous Measurement of Steroid Hormone in Human Serum by Liquid Chromatography-electrospray Ionization Tandem Mass Spectrometry
A new method accurately measures nine steroid hormones in human serum with high sensitivity.
research The laboratory in the multidisciplinary diagnosis of differences or disorders of sex development (DSD)
