Thioredoxin reductase 1 does not affect glucocorticoid receptor activity in hair follicle cells.
research Dexamethasone, a Synthetic Glucocorticoid, Induces the Activity of Androgen Receptor in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Dexamethasone increases the activity of androgen receptors in human skin cells, which may link it to certain types of hair loss.
research 5α-Reductase Type 2 Regulates Glucocorticoid Action and Metabolic Phenotype in Human Hepatocytes
Manipulating 5α-reductase type 2 can affect liver fat production and glucocorticoid effects.
research Effect of the allopregnanolone and allotetrahydrodeoxycorticosteron on spike-wave discharges in the EEG of absence epilepsy rat models

research A Comparison of the Efficacy, Relapse Rate and Side Effects among Three Modalities of Systemic Corticosteroid Therapy for Alopecia Areata
Intramuscular triamcinolone and pulse therapy with oral predonine are effective for alopecia areata with manageable side effects, but better relapse prevention is needed.
research Expanding the therapeutic versatility of clacosterone
Clascoterone cream could be used for other skin conditions affected by hormones.
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 Is dehydroepiandrosterone a hormone?
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.
research Hair Cortisol and Cushing's Disease
research Glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids in hair: facilitating accurate diagnosis of adrenal-related endocrine disorders
Hair analysis can help diagnose adrenal disorders non-invasively.
research Regulation of the metabolic phenotype of human hepatocytes by glucocorticoids and androgens
Glucocorticoids reduce fat production in liver cells, while androgens increase it in females; manipulating certain enzymes can influence these effects.
research STUDIED ON TOXICITY OF HYDROCORTISONE 17-BUTYRATE 21-PROPIONATE : 6. Subacute Toxicity in Dogs by Percutaneous Adminisration
Hydrocortisone 17-butyrate 21-propionate ointment caused reversible side effects like skin issues, weight gain, and organ changes in dogs.
research Disruption of androgen metabolism, regulation and effects : involvement of steroidogenic enzymes
Anabolic steroids and inflammation can disrupt androgen metabolism, potentially causing health issues.
research 5α-Reduced glucocorticoids: a story of natural selection
Natural 5α-reduced glucocorticoids might be anti-inflammatory with fewer side effects than current options.
research Structure and Expression of a New Complementary DNA Encoding the almost Exclusive 3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase/Δ5-Δ4-lsomerase in Human Adrenals and Gonads
Human adrenals and gonads have a unique enzyme for steroid hormone production.
research Pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism in a shi tzu dog treated with twice-daily oral trilostane: a case report
A Shi Tzu dog with high cortisol levels improved after increasing the dose of trilostane.
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 Neurosteroids, neuroactive steroids, and symptoms of affective disorders
Certain steroids in the brain affect mood and symptoms of depression, and treatments targeting these steroids show promise for improving these symptoms.
research Safety concerns regarding 5α reductase inhibitors for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
5α reductase inhibitors treat hair loss but may cause sexual side effects and risks.
research Finasteride-induced depression: new insights into possible pathomechanisms
Finasteride may increase depression by reducing brain cell growth.
research Early postnatal neuroactive steroid manipulation differentially affects recognition memory and passive avoidance performance in male rats
Changing neuroactive steroids in baby male rats affects their memory and learning differently as they grow up.
research Benzothiazepines, diltiazem and JTV-519, exert an anxiolytic-like effect via neurosteroid biosynthesis in mice
Benzothiazepines like diltiazem reduce anxiety in mice by making neurosteroids.
research Neuroactive Steroids and Ethanol Exposure: Relevance to Ethanol Sensitivity and Alcohol Use Disorders Risk
Neuroactive steroids may affect the risk and treatment of alcohol use disorders.
