600-630 / 1000+ resultsresearch Scalp Biophysical Characteristics in Males with Androgenetic Alopecia: A Comparative Study with Healthy Controls
research Molecular Basis of Androgenetic Alopecia
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.
research Ovine Placental Steroid Synthesis and Metabolism in Late Gestation
Diet changes hormone levels in pregnant ewes by affecting metabolism, not placental synthesis.
research Long-Term (10-Year) Efficacy of Finasteride in 523 Japanese Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride is effective and safe for long-term treatment of hair loss in Japanese men.
research Is Dihydrotestosterone a Classic Hormone?
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) mainly affects nearby cells, doesn't significantly change prostate hormonal environment or cancer risk, and doesn't play a main role in causing hair loss or acne. More research is needed on its effects on heart health, sexual function, and bone health.
research Pharmacological Therapeutics in Androgenetic Alopecia
Minoxidil and finasteride are effective for treating hair loss, with dutasteride showing potential but with side effects.
research Early Post-Natal Neuroactive Steroid Manipulation Modulates Ondansetron Effects on Initial Periods of Alcohol Consumption in Rats
Early changes in brain chemicals affect how a drug reduces alcohol intake in rats.
research High-Throughput and Direct Measurement of Androgen Levels Using Turbulent Flow Chromatography Liquid Chromatography-Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry to Discover Chemicals That Modulate Dihydrotestosterone Production in Human Prostate Cancer Cells
Researchers found four natural compounds that can change DHT levels in prostate cancer cells.
research Millet Seed Oil Activates Beta-Catenin Signaling and Promotes Hair Growth
Millet seed oil may help hair grow by activating certain cell growth signals.
research Does Treatment with Dutasteride or Finasteride Have Impact on Renal Morphology? Experimental Study
The study investigated the impact of dutasteride and finasteride on renal morphology in male rats over 40 days. Both drugs caused significant increases in serum urea and creatinine levels, indicating renal damage. Kidney weights, volumes, and the number of glomeruli per kidney were notably reduced, with dutasteride causing more severe effects than finasteride. Dutasteride led to a 51.6% reduction in glomeruli, while finasteride caused a 26.8% reduction. The study concluded that both drugs caused morphological and functional kidney damage, with dutasteride having a more pronounced impact. These findings suggested the need for careful consideration of renal function when prescribing these medications, especially for patients with a history of renal disease.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: A Review and Emerging Treatments
Hair loss, known as Androgenetic Alopecia, is often caused by hormones and can be diagnosed using noninvasive techniques. Treatments include topical minoxidil and oral finasteride, with new treatments being explored. There may also be a link between this type of hair loss and heart disease risk.
research The Possible Role of Prescribing Medications in Contributing to Male-Factor Infertility: Assessment of the FDA Pharmacovigilance Database
Some medications might contribute to male infertility, with finasteride showing a high number of reports.
research Astragalus Membranaceus and Cinnamomum Cassia Stimulate Hair Follicle Differentiation-Related Growth Factor via Wnt/Beta-Catenin Pathway
The YH complex, made from Astragalus membranaceus and Cinnamomum cassia, may help treat hair loss by promoting hair growth and follicle development.
research Cell-Free Fat Extract Restores Hair Loss: A Novel Therapeutic Strategy for Androgenetic Alopecia
A substance called Cell-free fat extract can effectively treat common hair loss by increasing hair growth and density.
research Testosterone: The Male Sex Hormone
More research is needed to understand how testosterone is maintained in adult males.
research Table 1
Androgen suppression therapy (AST) doesn't significantly lower bladder cancer risk, but using finasteride, a type of AST, might reduce it. AST decreases recurrence-free survival but doesn't affect overall survival or progression-free survival. More research is needed to understand AST's benefits.
research Table 2
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 How to Treat Androgenetic Alopecia – The Most Common Form of Hair Loss: A Review
Androgenetic alopecia can be treated with minoxidil and finasteride, requiring long-term use and patient cooperation.
research Daily Intake of Alfalfa Sprouts, But Not Broccoli Sprouts, Influences Plasma Levels of Androgen in Middle-Aged Males
Eating alfalfa sprouts every day can raise testosterone levels in middle-aged men, but broccoli sprouts don't have this effect.
research Hair Regrowth Treatment Efficacy and Resistance in Androgenetic Alopecia: A Systematic Review and Continuous Bayesian Network Meta-Analysis
ALRV5XR is the most effective hair regrowth treatment at 24 weeks.
research Global Online Interest in Finasteride Sexual Side Effects
Public interest in finasteride's sexual side effects has significantly increased.
research The Effect of Finasteride on Anxiety in Rats
research Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Topical and Oral Treatments on Hormonal and Androgenetic Alopecia
The combination of oral finasteride and dutasteride with topical minoxidil effectively promotes new hair growth in most people, with minimal side effects.
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 Finasteride Enhances the Generation of Human Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells by Up-Regulating the COX2/PGE2 Pathway
research Modulation of Hair Growth Promoting Effect by Natural Products
Natural products like plant extracts can help promote hair growth and could be used to treat hair loss.
research Prevention and Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia: What Is Available and What Is Coming?
Scalp cooling is the only FDA-approved method to prevent hair loss from chemotherapy, but other treatments like minoxidil and PRP are being tested.
research Ginsenoside Rg4 Enhances the Inductive Effects of Human Dermal Papilla Spheres on Hair Growth Via the AKT/GSK-3β/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway
Ginsenoside Rg4 from ginseng may help hair growth by activating certain cell signals.
