research Fetal Programming of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome by Androgen Excess: Evidence from Experimental, Clinical, and Genetic Association Studies
Exposure to too much androgen before birth might cause polycystic ovary syndrome later in life.
research The Influence of Androgens on Insulin Resistance
Higher levels of unbound testosterone are linked to increased insulin resistance, especially in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Androgens and Androgen Receptor Action in Skin and Hair Follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Androgen Excess Is the Key Element in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Too much male hormone is the main cause of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
research The Transcriptional Co-Activator cAMP Response Element-Binding Protein-Binding Protein Is Expressed in Prostate Cancer and Enhances Androgen- and Anti-Androgen-Induced Androgen Receptor Function
A protein called CBP is found in prostate cancer and can increase the effectiveness of certain prostate cancer treatments.
research The Hair Follicle: A Paradoxical Androgen Target Organ
Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.
research Androgen Receptor Gene CAG Repeat Polymorphism in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Longer CAG repeat lengths in the androgen receptor gene are linked to higher testosterone levels in women with PCOS.
research Evidence for Two Independent Functional Variants for Androgenetic Alopecia Around the Androgen Receptor Gene
Two gene areas linked to male pattern baldness found, more research needed.
research Altered Brain And Pituitary Androgen Metabolism By Prenatal, Perinatal Or Pre- And Postnatal Finasteride, Flutamide Or Dihydrotestosterone Treatment In Juvenile Male Rats
Treatment during development affects hormone balance and sexual behavior in male rats.
research Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome Associated with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (Testicular Feminization)
A woman had both Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, causing hair loss, and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, making her genetically male but physically female. This suggests androgens don't affect the hair loss condition.
research In Vitro and In Vivo Structure-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 Synthesis and Structure–Activity Studies of Side-Chain Derivatized Arylhydantoins for Investigation as Androgen Receptor Radioligands
The nature of the side chain in RU 58841 derivatives greatly affects its AR affinity, with the N-(iodopropenyl) derivative 13 showing the highest AR binding affinity, suggesting its potential for developing high-affinity radioiodinated AR radioligands.
research Androgen Receptor Activation Integrates Complex Transcriptional Effects in Osteoblasts, Involving the Growth Factors TGF-β and IGF-I, and Transcription Factor C/EBPδ
DHT affects bone growth by altering gene activity in osteoblasts, potentially complicating steroid use.
research Polymorphism of CAG and GGN Repeats of Androgen Receptor Gene in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Longer GGN repeats in the androgen receptor gene are linked to polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Androgen Receptor CAG Repeat Length Is Associated With Ovarian Reserve But Not With Ovarian Response
The length of CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene is linked to ovarian reserve but does not affect how the ovaries respond to stimulation.
research The Effect of GGC and CAG Repeat Polymorphisms on the Androgen Receptor Gene in Response to Finasteride Therapy in Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Fewer GGC sequences in the androgen receptor gene improve finasteride treatment for hair loss.
research Organizational Effects of Estrogens and Androgens on Estrogen and Androgen Receptor Expression in Pituitary and Adrenal Glands in Adult Male and Female Rats
Early hormones shape sex-specific differences in rat glands.
research Advances in Mitochondria-Centered Mechanism Behind the Roles of Androgens and Androgen Receptor in the Regulation of Glucose and Lipid Metabolism
Androgens and androgen receptors are important for metabolic health, affecting how the body uses glucose and fats through mitochondrial function.
research Lower Prostate Cancer Risk in Swedish Men with the Androgen Receptor E213 A-Allele
Swedish men with the E213 A-allele of the androgen receptor have a lower risk of prostate cancer.
research Metformin Influence on Hormone Levels at Birth in PCOS Mothers and Their Newborns
Metformin taken during pregnancy increases SHBG in newborns but doesn't change other hormone levels in mothers or babies.
research Metabolism and Action of Androgen in the Skin
Androgens affect skin conditions like acne and hair loss through specific biochemical pathways.
research Aspects of Cutaneous Androgen-Dependent Syndromes
Understanding hormones is key to treating certain skin conditions.
research Molecular Genetics of Androgen Insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.
research Hair Follicles and Associated Glands as Androgen Targets
Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.
research Androgens and Antiandrogens Influence on COVID-19 Disease in Men
Male hormones may make COVID-19 worse, while substances that block these hormones could lessen symptoms.

Sex hormones and antiandrogens can either stimulate or inhibit human hair follicle cell growth depending on the dose.
research Anti-Müllerian Hormone Gene Polymorphism Is Associated With Androgen Levels in Chinese Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Patients With Insulin Resistance
Certain gene variations are linked to higher male hormone levels in Chinese women with PCOS and insulin resistance.
