In this case report, a 48-year-old woman's hyperandrogenism, presenting with symptoms like acne and hirsutism, was attributed to a benign Leydig cell tumor, which resolved after surgical removal.

This study reported high analytical performance of an RMP for DHT quantification, with the ability to differentiate between 5α-DHT and 5β-DHT isomers, making it suitable for routine assay standardization and clinical sample evaluation.

This study measured elemental content in anagen hair fibers of Caucasian people aged 10-69 and found average levels of sulfur, zinc, calcium, and chlorine, establishing a baseline for future research.

This study found that a modest increase in dietary zinc over six months resulted in a detectable increase in sulfur and zinc counts in individual hairs, suggesting a non-invasive method to monitor zinc intake effects.

This study isolated highly pure oleanolic and maslinic acids from olive milling residues, exploring their chemical reactions, including the formation of finasteride precursors.

This article discusses the functions of the enzyme 17beta-HSD10, including its role in steroid metabolism and potential links to Alzheimer's disease, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that using anhydrous cerium(III) chloride with alkyl Grignard reagents significantly improved the addition to sterically hindered 17-ketosteroids, resulting in high yields and stereoselectivity.

This case report describes a 15-year-old girl with features of Becker naevus syndrome, highlighting the importance of DNA analysis from skin to confirm the diagnosis after 9 years of symptoms.

This case report describes a rare genetic mutation causing congenital hypotrichosis, where a 2-year-old girl showed some improvement in hair growth with topical minoxidil treatment, supporting its potential use for this condition.

This study used NMR spectroscopy and other techniques to fully assign the proton and 13C spectra of the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride.

This study determined the crystal structure and conformation of synthesized 17x-Acetoxy-pregn-4,6-diene-3,20-dione, revealing specific molecular interactions and structural details in an orthorhombic crystal system.

This study found that DHEA along with osteogenic induction medium significantly promotes the osteogenic differentiation and proliferation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from older individuals.

This study suggests that Keratin 15 expression in stratified epithelia may be regulated by two distinct mechanisms involving PKC/AP-1 pathway for differentiation and FOXM1 for basal cells, challenging its reliability as a sole stem cell marker.

This study found that two new progesterone derivatives showed higher antiandrogenic effects and 5α-reductase inhibition than finasteride in hamsters, particularly reducing seminal vesicle weight and flank organ size.

This study found that prepubertal Hispanic girls with idiopathic premature adrenarche did not show differences in 5 alpha-reductase or 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activities compared to controls.

The document concludes that a compound with potential for treating prostate cancer and hair loss was successfully made and its detailed structure was confirmed.

This study suggests that interleukin-15 plays a complex role in alopecia areata, potentially contributing to immune infiltration while also protecting against hair follicle immune privilege collapse and promoting hair growth.

Human hair keratin has a 40% α-helix structure that changes to a random coil in 8 M urea.

This article discusses the preparation of tritium-labeled testosterone metabolites and reports no new experimental findings.

This case study diagnosed an ovarian teratoma in a 15-year-old labrador based on histopathological examination, revealing a complex tumor with various tissue types.

This study found that lead treatment enhances the imaging of organized hair lipid structures, revealing their orientation and possible composition as lead and calcium soaps, with potential applications in various fields.

This study reports new fluorogenic ceramidase substrates and highlights RBM14C24:1 as an efficient substrate for neutral ceramidase, while RBM15C18:1 is the best probe for measuring ACER1 and ACER2 activities, potentially aiding high-throughput screening for ceramidase inhibitors.

This study suggests that measuring scalp hair 17-hydroxyprogesterone and androstenedione concentrations can be a promising tool for monitoring treatment in children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This study found that chronic administration of finasteride affected the isotopic composition of testosterone and nandrolone metabolites, impacting the drug-testing outcomes in athletic contexts.

This study found that CK15 is an unreliable marker for assessing bulge zone integrity in cicatricial alopecia follicles due to its altered expression in diseased conditions.

This study found that arylhydantoin and arylthiohydantoin derivatives with hydroxybutyl or methyl side-chains showed superior androgen receptor binding affinity and may serve as promising radioiodinated AR ligands.

This paper details a method for measuring testosterone metabolism into seven androgens using digital autoradiography, which offers high sensitivity and reduces the need for radioactive materials.
