210-240 / 1000+ resultsresearch May patients receiving 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors be in higher risk of COVID-19 complications?
Men on 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors might have worse COVID-19 outcomes.
research Actions of 5α-reductase inhibitors on the epididymis
5α-reductase inhibitors may reduce male fertility and could be used for male contraception.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Hair Regeneration
research Hormonal Effects on Hair Follicles
Hormones like testosterone and estrogen significantly affect hair growth and structure.
research Ovine placental steroid synthesis and metabolism in late gestation†
Diet changes hormone levels in pregnant ewes by affecting metabolism, not placental synthesis.
research The Biological Actions of Dehydroepiandrosterone Involves Multiple Receptors
DHEA affects multiple receptors and may help with metabolic issues, but its safety and effectiveness in humans are unclear.
research Steroid Sulfatase in the Human Hair Follicle Concentrates in the Dermal Papilla
Steroid sulfatase in hair follicles may be a target for treating hair loss.
research Glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids in hair: facilitating accurate diagnosis of adrenal-related endocrine disorders
Hair analysis can help diagnose adrenal disorders non-invasively.
research Minoxidil may suppress androgen receptor-related functions
Minoxidil can reduce functions related to androgen receptors.
research Intracrine androgen biosynthesis, metabolism and action revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
research SERUM-CONCENTRATIONS OF Dehydroepyandrosterone-sulfate IN MEN WITH ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
Men with male pattern baldness don't necessarily have high levels of Dehydroepyandrosterone-sulfate, and there's no link between its levels and the severity of hair loss.
research The Modulation of Aromatase and Estrogen Receptor Alpha in Cultured Human Dermal Papilla Cells by Dexamethasone: A Novel Mechanism for Selective Action of Estrogen via Estrogen Receptor Beta?
Dexamethasone may influence hair growth by altering estrogen receptor activity in hair cells.
research Androgens’ Effects across the Lifespan in Men and Animal Models
Androgens, male hormones, affect physical and mental functions, with a decrease leading to health issues like muscle loss, bone disease, and depression, and more research is needed on long-term effects and treatments.
research A randomized placebo-controlled study on the effects of pioglitazone on cortisol metabolism in polycystic ovary syndrome
Pioglitazone improved insulin sensitivity and altered cortisol metabolism in PCOS patients.
research Fabrication of carboxymethyl cellulose/hyaluronic acid/polyvinylpyrrolidone composite pastes incorporation of minoxidil-loaded ferulic acid-derived lignin nanoparticles and valproic acid for treatment of androgenetic alopecia
The study created a new hair loss treatment paste that regrows hair faster and with fewer side effects than minoxidil alone.
research Exploring the clinical implications of novel SRD5A2 variants in 46,XY disorders of sex development
New SRD5A2 variants may disrupt protein function, aiding diagnosis and treatment of related disorders.
research Dermatologic care of patients with differences of sex development
Dermatologists are crucial in providing personalized care for patients with sex development differences.
research Adverse effects of 5α-reductase inhibitors: What do we know, don’t know, and need to know?
5α-reductase inhibitors may cause persistent sexual dysfunction and depression, needing more research on long-term effects.
research Neurosteroids in Adult Hippocampus of Male and Female Rodents: Biosynthesis and Actions of Sex Steroids
Sex steroids produced in the hippocampus are crucial for brain functions like memory and learning in rodents.
research Novel insights into the pathways regulating the canine hair cycle and their deregulation in alopecia X
The study concluded that similar pathways regulate hair growth in dogs and mice, and these pathways are disrupted in dogs with Alopecia X, affecting stem cells and hormone metabolism.
research Molecular docking simulation studies on potent butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors obtained from microbial transformation of dihydrotestosterone
Metabolite 7 is a strong inhibitor for Alzheimer's disease management.
research Testosterone: The Male Sex Hormone
More research is needed to understand how testosterone is maintained in adult males.
research PATHOBIOLOGY OF ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
The exact causes of baldness are not fully understood, limiting treatment options.
research The Search for the Causes of Common Hyperandrogenism, 1965 to Circa 2015
Significant progress was made in understanding androgen excess disorders, but much is still unknown.
research Transcriptome Profiling and Differential Gene Expression in Canine Microdissected Anagen and Telogen Hair Follicles and Interfollicular Epidermis
Different genes are active in dogs' hair growth and skin, similar to humans, which helps understand dog skin and hair diseases and can relate to human conditions.
research Estrogen and androgen signaling in the pathogenesis of BPH
Hormonal interactions, especially involving DHT and estrogen, play a key role in BPH development and treatment.
research Prevention of Male Late-Onset Hypogonadism by Natural Polyphenolic Antioxidants
Natural antioxidants like flavonoids and resveratrol may help prevent low testosterone in aging men.
research Roles of steroid receptors in the lung and COVID-19
Sex hormones may influence COVID-19 severity, with males at higher risk, and certain hormone therapies could potentially treat the virus.
research Mechanism of action of bolandiol (19-nortestosterone-3β,17β-diol), a unique anabolic steroid with androgenic, estrogenic, and progestational activities
Bolandiol, a synthetic steroid, builds muscle and bone without greatly affecting sex glands, and works differently from other hormones.
