research Table_2.docx
Androgen suppression therapy (AST) doesn't significantly lower bladder cancer risk, but using finasteride, a type of AST, might decrease the risk. AST also lessens the chance of cancer coming back but doesn't really affect survival rates. More research is needed to understand AST's benefits for different bladder cancers.
research Effects of dihydrotestosterone on osteoblast activity in curdlan-administered SKG mice and osteoprogenitor cells in patients with ankylosing spondylitis
DHT inhibition may increase spinal bone growth in ankylosing spondylitis.
research Cardiometabolic Risk Factors in Atorvastatin-Treated Women with Euthyroid Autoimmune Thyroiditis
Atorvastatin is less effective for women with Hashimoto's thyroiditis.
research “Sebocytes’ makeup” - Novel mechanisms and concepts in the physiology of the human sebaceous glands
Hormones and signaling pathways control sebaceous gland function and could help treat acne.
research Sterol Intermediates of Cholesterol Biosynthesis Inhibit Hair Growth and Trigger an Innate Immune Response in Cicatricial Alopecia
Cholesterol-related compounds can stop hair growth and cause inflammation in a type of scarring hair loss.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors and Chemoprevention: The PCPT and Beyond
5α-reductase inhibitors can reduce prostate cancer risk but may increase high-grade tumors, needing more research.
