research Androgen Conjugates: Physiology and Clinical Significance
Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.
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 Recent Approaches of Antibody Therapeutics in Androgenetic Alopecia
Antibody treatments show promise for hair loss but need more research.
research A Role for Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase 1 in Vascular Remodeling During Endometrial Decidualization
The enzyme 5α-reductase is important for proper blood vessel development during the fertility-related transformation of the uterus lining.
research Impact of Androgen Deprivation Therapy on Mortality of Prostate Cancer Patients with COVID-19: A Propensity Score-Based Analysis
Androgen deprivation therapy doesn't lower the risk of death from COVID-19 in prostate cancer patients.
research Maternal Androgen Excess Significantly Impairs Sexual Behavior in Male and Female Mouse Offspring: Perspective for a Biological Origin of Sexual Dysfunction in PCOS
Too much male hormone in mothers can negatively affect the sexual behavior of both male and female baby mice.
research Transcriptome Analysis Reveals an Inhibitory Effect of Dihydrotestosterone-Treated 2D- and 3D-Cultured Dermal Papilla Cells on Hair Follicle Growth
Dihydrotestosterone treatment on 2D and 3D-cultured skin cells slows down hair growth by affecting certain genes and could be a potential target for hair loss treatment.
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 Polymeric Micelle Mediated Follicular Delivery of Spironolactone: Targeting the Mineralocorticoid Receptor to Prevent Glucocorticoid-Induced Activation and Delayed Cutaneous Wound Healing
Using polymeric micelles to deliver spironolactone topically could improve wound healing in skin affected by glucocorticoids.
research The Interplay Between Finasteride-Induced Androgen Imbalance, Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress, Oxidative Stress, and Liver Disorders in Paternal and Filial Generation
Finasteride in male rats causes liver and metabolic issues in their offspring.
research The Secretory Clear Cell of the Eccrine Sweat Gland as the Probable Source of Excess Sweat Production in Hyperhidrosis
Eccrine sweat gland's clear cells likely cause excessive sweating in hyperhidrosis.
research Anti-Acne Agents Attenuate FGFR2 Signal Transduction in Acne
Anti-acne medications may work by reducing the activity of a protein involved in acne development.
research Effects of Short-Term Finasteride on Apoptotic Factors and Androgen Receptors in Prostate Cancer Cells
Short-term finasteride treatment may lower some cell death factors in prostate cancer cells.
research The Effects of Estrogens on Linear Bone Growth
Estrogens are key for bone growth spurts in both boys and girls and affect growth into adulthood.
research Mitochondria Dysfunction and Inflammation in Traumatic Brain Injury: Androgens to the Battlefront
Androgens like testosterone may help treat traumatic brain injury by reducing mitochondrial stress and inflammation.
research Mechanistic Synergy of Hair Growth Promotion by the Avicennia Marina Extract and Its Active Constituent Avicequinone C in Dermal Papilla Cells Isolated From Androgenic Alopecia Patients
Avicennia marina extract and avicequinone C can potentially promote hair growth and treat hair loss by interfering with hair loss mechanisms and boosting growth factors.
research Differential Expression of CXCL12 in Human and Mouse Hair: Androgens Induce CXCL12 in Human Dermal Papilla and Dermal Sheath Cup
Targeting CXCL12 may help treat hair loss caused by androgens.
research Hirsutism
Excessive hair growth in women, often from high androgen levels, is usually caused by PCOS, and can be treated with hair removal, medication, and possibly weight loss.
research Beta-Nicotinamide Mononucleotide Promotes Cell Proliferation and Hair Growth by Reducing Oxidative Stress
NMN could potentially treat hair loss by reducing oxidative stress and improving cell health.
research Simultaneous Quantitation of Nine Hydroxy-Androgens and Their Conjugates in Human Serum by Stable Isotope Dilution Liquid Chromatography Electrospray Ionization Tandem Mass Spectrometry
A new method accurately measures nine specific hormones in human blood.
research Tissue-Selective Regulation of Androgen-Responsive Genes
The same hormone can affect gene expression differently in various tissues, which could lead to new treatments for conditions like hair loss.
research The Role of Androgens in Hormone Replacement Therapy
Androgen therapy can help with symptoms like low libido in women, but more research is needed to understand its long-term safety and effects on health.
research Potential Adverse Effects of Long-Term Testosterone Therapy
Long-term testosterone therapy can cause hormone suppression, affect prostate and heart health, and alter physical characteristics, but does not increase prostate cancer risk and needs more research for full risk assessment.
research Sexual Problems of Men With Androgenic Alopecia Treated With 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors
Men using hair loss drugs like finasteride may experience sexual side effects like erectile dysfunction, but it's unclear who will be affected and when. Treating depression and sexual symptoms is suggested, as these men often have higher rates of both. More research is needed to understand why these side effects occur.
