Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) increases oil production in skin cells by activating mTOR, and mTOR inhibitors can reduce this effect.

Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.

Different halogens on progesterone derivatives can either block or mimic male hormone effects, depending on their type and amount.

Hirsutism is excessive male-pattern hair growth in women, often treated cosmetically or with hormone therapy if contraception is also desired.

New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.

Hair loss gene linked to prostate issues.

The osteopontin gene is active in a specific part of rat hair follicles during a certain hair growth phase and might affect hair cycle and diseases.

Testosterone is crucial for development, growth, and various body functions in mammals.

Changing protein kinase levels in pituitary cells affects calcium flow and beta-endorphin release.

Certain inhibitors can potentially treat prostate cancer and other hormone-dependent conditions by controlling sex hormone levels in cells.

The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.

Common latent viruses might contribute to male-pattern baldness by disrupting cell processes that normally suppress hair loss-related proteins.

ERG increases SOX9, promoting prostate cancer growth and invasion.

Steroids, particularly estrogens and 5α-reductase inhibitors, affect blood vessel-related hair growth processes in hair follicle cells.

Genetic defects in testosterone production can cause hormonal and developmental disorders, and more research is needed to understand androgen regulation and develop safer treatments.

Rat skin takes up and processes testosterone differently than other organs, with testosterone being more important for the skin than its metabolite 5α-DHT.

Garden cress extract may help treat skin inflammation and androgen-related disorders.

Knowing how skin works and its diseases helps doctors diagnose and treat skin conditions better.

Finasteride safely treats enlarged prostate and male-pattern baldness.

The meeting presented new findings on hair stem cells, pigmentation, genetics, and modern hair treatment techniques.

Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.

S100A3 protein is crucial for hair shaft formation in mice.

The document concludes that treatments for female hair loss and excess body hair are available, but managing expectations is important.

Hair growth is influenced by hormones and goes through different phases; androgens can both promote and inhibit hair growth depending on the body area.

Male pattern baldness is caused by certain cells in hair follicles and could potentially be treated by targeting a specific growth factor, TGF-β1.

Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

Androgenetic alopecia is mainly caused by genetic factors and increased androgen activity, leading to hair follicle miniaturization.

The document concludes that understanding hair follicle biology can lead to better hair loss treatments.

Androgens can both increase and decrease hair growth in different parts of the body.

Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
