Allium hookeri extract may help promote hair growth and protect cells from damage.
research Three-Dimensional Analysis of Sex- and Gonadal Status-Dependent Microglial Activation in a Mouse Model of Parkinson's Disease
Sex and sex hormones can affect brain inflammation in Parkinson's disease, with male mice being more affected and female mice showing a protective effect.
research The Additive Value of Platelet-Rich Plasma to Topical Minoxidil in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Combining PRP with Minoxidil improves hair density and thickness more than Minoxidil alone.
research 5α-Reductase Isozymes and Aromatase mRNA Levels in Plucked Hair from Young Women with Female Pattern Hair Loss
Higher enzyme levels found in women with hair loss, suggesting hormone imbalance.
research Human Type 3 5α-Reductase Is Expressed in Peripheral Tissues at Higher Levels Than Types 1 and 2 and Its Activity Is Potently Inhibited by Finasteride and Dutasteride
Type 3 5α-reductase is more common and finasteride and dutasteride strongly inhibit it.
research Pharmacology of Anabolic Steroids
Anabolic steroids can build muscle and strength but have risks and need more research on their clinical benefits and side effects.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Male androgenetic alopecia involves hair follicle miniaturization due to DHT, with potential treatments using inhibitors and blockers.
research Cloning, Computational Analysis and Expression Profiling of Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase 1 (SRD5A1) Gene During Reproductive Phases and Ovatide Stimulation in Endangered Catfish, Clarias Magur
The research identified and described a gene important for hormone conversion in endangered catfish, which varies in activity during different reproductive stages and after hormone treatment.
research Kinetic Analysis of LY320236: Competitive Inhibitor of Type I and Non-Competitive Inhibitor of Type II Human Steroid 5α-Reductase
LY320236 is a strong blocker of two enzymes that change testosterone into dihydrotestosterone and might help treat conditions related to male hormones.
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 Finasteride Treatment Inhibits Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis in Male Mice
Finasteride reduces new brain cells in male mice, possibly causing depression.
research Effect of 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and Testosterone on Apoptosis in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.
research A Mouse Model of Androgenetic Alopecia
Mice with human gene experienced hair loss when treated with DHT.
research Testicular Steroidogenesis: Production and Regulation of Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone
Genetic defects in testosterone production can cause hormonal and developmental disorders, and more research is needed to understand androgen regulation and develop safer treatments.
research Beyond Acne: Current Aspects of Sebaceous Gland Biology and Function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research What Should It Take to Describe a Substance or Product as 'Sperm-Safe'?
Products should be called 'sperm-safe' only after thorough, well-designed tests.
research Androgen Modulation of Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling in Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgens may block hair growth signals, targeting this could treat hair loss.
research Inhibition of the Androgen Receptor by Antisense Oligonucleotides Regulates the Biological Activity of Androgens in SZ95 Sebocytes
Blocking the androgen receptor in skin cells reduces their growth response to male hormones, suggesting a possible treatment for skin conditions linked to androgens.
research Study of Gene Expression Alteration in Male Androgenetic Alopecia: Evidence of Predominant Molecular Signaling Pathways
Hair loss involves immune responses, inflammation, and disrupted signaling pathways.
