research Steroid Hormones: Overview and Medical Applications
Steroid hormones are crucial for body functions and have various medical uses, but their misuse can lead to dependence.
research Dermatosis Associated with Menopause
Menopause can cause skin issues, and seeing a dermatologist helps.
research Skin, Hair, and Beyond: The Impact of Menopause
Menopause causes dry skin, wrinkles, and hair changes, with hormone therapy helping but not recommended just for these issues.
research Characteristics of Healthy and Androgenetic Alopecia Scalp Microbiome: Effect of Lindera Strychnifolia Roots Extract as a Natural Solution for Its Modulation
Lindera strychnifolia root extract may help balance scalp bacteria and potentially reduce hair loss.
research Gonadotrophin-Releasing Hormone Agonist Therapy for Hirsutism Is as Effective as High Dose Cyproterone Acetate but Results in a Longer Remission
Hormone therapy for excessive hair growth is as good with GnRHa as with high-dose CPA, but GnRHa has longer-lasting results.
research Alterations in Hair Follicle Dynamics in Women
Hormonal changes after childbirth and menopause can lead to women's hair loss and facial hair growth, with a need for better treatments.
research Keratinocyte Growth Inhibition Through the Modification of Wnt Signaling by Androgen in Balding Dermal Papilla Cells
Androgens slow hair growth by altering Wnt signaling in balding cells.
research The Mechanisms of Anabolic Steroids, Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators, and Myostatin Inhibitors
Anabolic steroids boost muscle growth, SARMs increase muscle mass and bone density without side effects, and myostatin inhibitors block a protein that stops muscle growth, but each has potential risks.
research Androgens and Alopecia
Male hormones, particularly DHT, are linked to male pattern hair loss, and treatments like finasteride can help, but they don't work for postmenopausal women's hair loss, which may have different causes.
research The Metabolism and Control Mechanism of Human Hair Follicles
Human hair follicles have a unique metabolism that changes between growth stages and may contribute to baldness.
research Mechanism of Action of Avicennia Marina Heartwood Extract and Avicequinone C on Human Dermal Papilla Cells Isolated from Androgenic Alopecia Patients
Avicennia Marina extract and avicequinone C can reduce hair loss hormone production and increase hair growth factors, suggesting they could be used to treat androgenic alopecia.
research The Mechanism of Androgen Actions in PCOS Etiology
Androgens play a key role in causing PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome).
research Molecular Genetic and Endocrine Mechanisms of Hair Growth
Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.
research Differences in the Mechanisms of Androgen Action in Hair Follicles from Women and Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
research C-MYC-Induced Sebaceous Gland Differentiation Is Controlled by an Androgen Receptor/p53 Axis
The balance between androgen receptor and p53 is crucial for sebaceous gland differentiation.
research Androgen Antagonists in Androgen Target Tissues
Antiandrogens have important biological effects, but more research is needed to understand them fully and compare their effectiveness and side effects to other treatments.
research Antifungal Activity and Hair Growth Stimulation of Purple Sweet Potato Leaf Fraction (Ipomoea Batatas) and Its Molecular Mechanism Through Androgen Receptor Inhibition
Purple sweet potato leaf extracts can help treat hair loss and fungal infections.
research Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgenetic alopecia, or hair loss, is caused by genetic factors and hormones, with different mechanisms in men and women, and can be linked to insulin resistance and polycystic ovary syndrome.
research The Fibroblast as a Model for Androgen Resistant States
Fibroblasts help understand androgen resistance at the cellular level.
research Androgens and Hair: A Biological Paradox with Clinical Consequences
Androgens can both increase body hair and cause scalp hair loss.
research Androgen Effects in Mammals
Testosterone is crucial for development, growth, and various body functions in mammals.
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 The Role of Androgen and Androgen Receptor in Skin-Related Disorders
Targeting androgen receptors could be a promising way to treat skin disorders with fewer side effects.
research A Mouse Model of Androgenetic Alopecia
Mice with human gene experienced hair loss when treated with DHT.
research Balding Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells Contain Higher Levels of Androgen Receptors Than Those From Non-Balding Scalp
Cells from balding scalps have more androgen receptors than cells from non-balding scalps.
research Acne
Hormonal treatments can help with acne, especially in women, by lowering androgen levels or blocking their effects.
research Male Pattern Baldness: Current Treatments, Future Prospects
Current treatments for male pattern baldness include minoxidil and finasteride, with new options being developed.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Dihydrotestosterone Stimulates 5α-Reductase Activity in Pubic Skin Fibroblasts
Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
