research Cause of Androgenic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness may be caused by scalp pressure on hair follicles, which increases with age and leads to a cycle of hair loss. This process is not directly determined by genes.
research RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN ALOPECIAS
Recent hair loss research shows some progress, especially in understanding male pattern baldness, but effective treatments for many types of hair loss are still lacking.
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 Ursolic acid reduces prostate size and dihydrotestosterone level in a rat model of benign prostatic hyperplasia
Ursolic acid can shrink the prostate and lower a hormone linked to prostate growth in rats.
research Development of prostate cancer in a patient with primary hypogonadism: intratumoural steroidogenesis in prostate cancer tissues
Prostate cancer can progress even with low testosterone due to internal hormone production in the tumor.
research Selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs) have specific impacts on the mouse uterus
GTx-024 and Danazol affect the uterus like DHT, while GTx-007 has little impact.
research Finasteride-its impact on sexual function and prostate cancer
Finasteride reduces prostate cancer risk but may affect ejaculatory volume and requires careful consideration for young men.
research Inhibitory effects of TripTripterygium wilfordii multiglycoside on benign prostatic hyperplasia in rats
Tripterygium wilfordii multiglycoside effectively reduced prostate enlargement in rats without harmful effects.
research Antiandrogenic activity of Riboflavin 5′-phosphate (FMN) in 22Rv1 and LNCaP human prostate cancer cell lines
Riboflavin 5′-phosphate (FMN) shows potential for treating androgen-related conditions but may be limited in treating prostate cancer.
research The Role of Non-Aromatizable Testosterone Metabolite in Metabolic Pathways
Normal levels of DHT can reduce belly fat and increase muscle, but too much can lead to hair loss, prostate issues, and possibly heart disease.
research Discovery of Natural Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors
Natural herbal compounds might treat certain medical conditions by reducing DHT levels, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Hormonal status of male reproductive system: androgens and estrogens in the testis and epididymis. In vivo and in vitro approaches.
Androgens and estrogens are crucial for male reproductive health, affecting hormone levels and tissue function.
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 Idiopathic Hirsutism*
The document concludes that more research is needed to understand excessive hair growth in women with normal hormone levels and regular ovulation.
research Differential Expression of miR-93 and miR-21 in Granulosa Cells and Follicular Fluid of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Associating with Different Phenotypes
The study found that certain microRNAs are higher in the cells and lower in the fluid of women with a specific type of polycystic ovary syndrome, and one microRNA could potentially help diagnose the condition.
research Gender Differences in Production and Circulating Levels of Sex Hormones and Their Impact on Aging Skin
Men and women experience skin aging differently due to changes in sex hormone levels with age.
research Roles of steroid sulfatase in brain and other tissues
Steroid sulfatase is important for activating hormones that affect memory, brain function, and certain diseases, and could be a target for treating hormone-related disorders.
research Steroid 5α-reductases and 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases: key enzymes in androgen metabolism
Key enzymes control androgen levels, affecting hormone activity and potential treatments.
research Baicalin inhibits recruitment of GATA1 to the HSD3B2 promoter and reverses hyperandrogenism of PCOS
Baicalin may help reduce excessive male hormone levels in PCOS.
research Effects of androgen on extracellular vesicles from endothelial cells in rat penile corpus cavernosum
Low androgen levels reduce nitric oxide production in rat penile cells.
research Intracrinology and Testosterone Pellet Therapy: An Enzyme-Aware, Symptom-Driven Approach to Hormone Optimization in Aging
Testosterone pellet therapy may better address hormone imbalances in aging by focusing on local hormone production and symptom relief.
research The genetics of androgenetic alopecia
Genes and hormones cause hair loss, with four genes contributing equally.
research C19and C215β/5αMetabolite Ratios in Subjects Treated with the 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride: Comparison of Male Pseudohermaphrodites with Inherited 5α-Reductase Deficiency*
Finasteride may treat baldness but less effective for those with 5α-reductase deficiency.
research Rat steroid 5α-reductase kinetic characteristics: Extreme pH-dependency of the type II isozyme in prostate and epididymis homogenates
The activity of a specific rat enzyme in the prostate and epididymis is highly dependent on the acidity level.
research Transcriptomic profiling in Silurana tropicalis testes exposed to finasteride
Finasteride affects frog testes by increasing testosterone, decreasing 5α-DHT, and impacting genes related to reproduction and other functions.
research Is the metabolism of testosterone to 5α-dihydrotestosterone required for androgen action in the skin?
Testosterone conversion to 5α-DHT may not be essential for its effects on the skin.
research Developmental and functional roles of androgen and interactive signals for external genitalia and erectile tissues
Androgen and Wnt signals are crucial for developing and functioning male genitalia and erectile tissues.
research 256 Expression patterns of the Siah genes in postnatal mouse skin
The Siah1 and Siah2 genes are active in mouse skin development and hair growth, especially right after birth.
research Effects of topical application of EGCG on testosterone-induced hair loss in a mouse model
Applying EGCG on the skin can prevent hair loss caused by testosterone in mice.
