The same hormone can affect gene expression differently in various tissues, which could lead to new treatments for conditions like hair loss.
research Steroidogenic Factor-1 Lineage Origin of Skin Lesions in Carney Complex Syndrome
Skin lesions in Carney Complex are caused by a gene change in some skin cells that leads to increased pigmentation and may lead to tumors.
research Inhibiting Biosynthesis and/or Metabolism of Progestins in the Ventral Tegmental Area Attenuates Lordosis of Rats in Behavioural Oestrus
Blocking certain brain processes reduces mating behavior in female rats.
research Oral administration of low-dose bisphenol A promotes proliferation of ventral prostate and upregulates prostaglandin D2 synthase expression in adult rats
Low doses of BPA can increase prostate growth and change hormone levels in adult rats.

Some cats with sudden hair loss and tiredness might have cancer-related alopecia.
research Age-related changes in brain and pituitary 5α-reductase with finasteride (Proscar) treatment
Finasteride affects prostate weights and pituitary activity differently with age.
research Induction of Hard Keratin Expression in Non-Nail-Matrical Keratinocytes by Nail-Matrical Fibroblasts through Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interactions
Nail-matrical fibroblasts can make non-nail cells produce hard keratin, useful for nail repair.
research Morphological Features of External Genitalia in Hypospadiac Rat Model: 3-Dimensional Analysis
Hypospadiac rats showed abnormal genital development, useful for studying human hypospadias.
research FCE 28260, a new 5α-reductase inhibitor: In vitro and in vivo effects
FCE 28260 is a stronger and longer-lasting inhibitor of 5α-reductase than finasteride, which may make it a better treatment for certain medical conditions.
research Activation of extrasynaptic δ-GABAA receptors globally or within the posterior-VTA has estrous-dependent effects on consumption of alcohol and estrous-independent effects on locomotion
δ-GABAA receptors affect alcohol consumption based on the estrous cycle and influence movement regardless of the cycle.
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 In-vivo uptake and metabolism of testosterone by the skin and other tissues of the rat
Rat skin takes up and processes testosterone differently than other organs, with testosterone being more important for the skin than its metabolite 5α-DHT.
research Role of Androgen Receptor in Hypothalamic Regulation of Metabolism and Reproduction
Androgen receptors in the brain affect metabolism and reproduction differently in males and females, and may help manage PCOS symptoms in females.
research Expansion of specialized epidermis induced by hormonal state and mechanical strain
Nipple area expansion in mice needs both pregnancy hormones and mechanical strain.
research Androgen Receptors and Androgen-Dependent Initiation of Protein Synthesis in the Prostate
Prostate cells have proteins that bind to specific hormones, which can increase protein production when activated by these hormones.
