research 17α-Acetoxy-6-bromo-16β-methylpregna-4,6-diene-3,20-dione
A new compound with strong antiandrogenic effects was found, potentially useful for treating conditions like acne and prostate cancer.
research Decreased allopregnanolone induced by hormonal contraceptives is associated with a reduction in social behavior and sexual motivation in female rats
Hormonal contraceptives may reduce social behavior and sexual motivation by lowering allopregnanolone levels.
research Androgens Affect the Activity of Human Sebocytes in Culture in a Manner Dependent on the Localization of the Sebaceous Glands and Their Effect Is Antagonized by Spironolactone
Male hormones affect oil-producing skin cells differently based on their body location, and the drug spironolactone can reduce these effects.
research PLASMA UNBOUND AND UNCONJUGATED ANDROGENS IN ORIENTAL MEN
Oriental men may have lower androgen activity affecting hair growth despite similar testosterone levels to Caucasian men.
research Hormone therapy in acne
Hormonal treatment is effective for women with acne not helped by usual treatments, especially if they have hormonal imbalances.
research Association of Circulating Spexin Levels with Metabolic and Hormonal Disturbances in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Women and Normal Controls
Spexin levels are lower in PCOS patients and linked to metabolic and hormonal issues.
research Nonsteroidal inhibitors of human type I steroid 5-.alpha.-reductase
New compounds called benzoquinolinones may treat conditions linked to excess DHT.
research The effects of oestrogens on linear bone growth
Estrogens are key for bone growth spurts in both boys and girls and affect growth into adulthood.
research Pharmacodynamic Evaluation: Endocrinology
The conclusion is that endocrinology significantly impacts medicine with various common medications used for treatment.
research Identification of xenobiotics interfering with 5 α -reductase (SRD5A2) activity
MK-0773 is a moderate inhibitor of the SRD5A2 enzyme.
research Endocrine controls of keratin expression
Hormones control keratin production in skin and hair.
research Hyperandrogenism in a set of triplets with modification of clinical course by hyperthyroidism
Hyperthyroidism can hide signs of high androgen levels in females.
research Pre-receptor regulation of the androgen receptor
Two enzymes regulate androgen receptor activity, affecting treatments for androgen insufficiency and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research [Effects of androgens on the skin. Therpeutic implications].
Androgens affect skin conditions like acne and hirsutism, treatable with hormone therapy and other methods.
research ANTIANDROGENS AND THE SKIN
Antiandrogens can treat acne, hirsutism, and seborrhea by reducing sebum production and androgen action.
research Prostate-Sparing Effects in Primates of the Potent Androgen 7α-Methyl-19-Nortestosterone: A Potential Alternative to Testosterone for Androgen Replacement and Male Contraception1
MENT could be a better option than testosterone for male hormone therapy and birth control because it works well at lower doses and has fewer side effects on the prostate.
research In Vitroandin VivoStructure-Activity Relationships of Novel Androgen Receptor Ligands with Multiple Substituents in the B-Ring
Certain changes to the B-ring of androgen receptor ligands can increase their effectiveness for potential treatments of muscle and bone conditions.
research Maternal androgen excess inhibits fetal cardiomyocytes proliferation through RB-mediated cell cycle arrest and induces cardiac hypertrophy in adulthood
Excess maternal androgens can cause heart problems in offspring.
research Sebocytes are the Key Regulators of Androgen Homeostasis in Human Skin
Sebocytes play a key role in controlling androgen levels in human skin.
research 892 Behavior of the two circulating androgens testosterone and DHEA and their main intracellular metabolites in an androgen-sensitive sebocyte cell line
Testosterone affects androgen receptors and lipid storage in cells, while DHEA does not convert to testosterone or affect these receptors in the same way.
research Synthesis and in Vitro Evaluation of 4-Substituted N-(1,1-Dimethylethyl)-3-oxo-4-androstene-17.beta.-carboxamides as 5.alpha.-Reductase Inhibitors and Antiandrogens
The new compounds moderately block a specific enzyme and strongly counteract a male hormone, suggesting potential for treating certain male-related health conditions.
research Exclusive androgenic effect of dehydroepiandrosterone in sebaceous glands of rat skin
DHEA acts like a male hormone on rat skin glands and doesn't turn into female hormones there.
research Testosterone protects female embryonic heart H9c2 cells against severe metabolic stress by activating estrogen receptors and up-regulating IES SUR2B
Testosterone protects female heart cells from stress by activating estrogen receptors.
research Endocrinological evaluation and hormonal therapy for women with difficult acne
Hormonal therapy is a good option for women with severe acne, especially when there's a chance of hormone imbalance.
research Epigenetic Modulation of ESR1 and DNMT3A Following Finasteride Exposure: Implications for Female Reproductive Function
Finasteride may affect female fertility by altering gene activity.
research Targeted Determination of Residual Sex Hormones in Cosmetics Using Magnetic Solid-Phase Extraction with Isotope-Labeled Internal Standards by UHPLC-MS/MS
A new method effectively detects trace sex hormones in cosmetics, ensuring safety.
