Hair loss gene linked to prostate issues.

Hidradenitis suppurativa may be related to hormones and patients often have metabolic disorders; more research is needed to understand this connection.

Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) are drugs that can control the effects of androgens in different tissues, potentially having fewer side effects and promising for treating various conditions.

Dexamethasone increases the activity of androgen receptors in human skin cells, which may link it to certain types of hair loss.

Testosterone therapy can help with androgen deficiency in women but should be used with caution and monitoring due to potential risks.

The study found that androgen receptors in skin cells mainly affect the focal adhesion pathway and control the caveolin-1 gene, with implications for new treatments for related diseases.

DHEA acts like a male hormone on rat skin glands and doesn't turn into female hormones there.

Two women with very high androgen levels had only slight skin issues, one due to a non-classical adrenal disorder and the other due to an adrenal tumor.

Cuscuta reflexa extract may help treat hair loss caused by hormones.

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

Testosterone therapy can help improve sexual function, mood, and bone density in women with low androgen levels, but more research is needed on long-term safety.

Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.

Androgen receptors are key for development and health, affecting conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness.

Skin problems like acne, dry skin, and nail and hair changes are common in patients taking EGFR inhibitors.

Testosterone therapy can help postmenopausal women with low sexual desire but needs more safety research and should be used with estrogen therapy.

High aldosterone and free testosterone levels link to female hair loss; testing aldosterone may predict hypertension risk.

Prolactin affects hair growth and skin conditions, and could be a target for new skin disease treatments.

Honokiol might help reduce male skin aging by maintaining testosterone levels.

Hormone treatments in transsexual individuals reduce hair growth and oil production in male-to-females and increase them in female-to-males.

Using anabolic androgenic steroids can cause serious, lasting health problems in many parts of the body.

The oral contraceptive ethinylestradiol/chlormadinone acetate is effective in reducing acne and improving other skin conditions related to high androgen levels.

Men and women experience skin aging differently due to changes in sex hormone levels with age.

Genetic defects in androgen production are linked to male developmental disorders and are improving treatment understanding.

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

The same hormone can affect gene expression differently in various tissues, which could lead to new treatments for conditions like hair loss.

Hormones might affect the skin condition hidradenitis suppurativa, but their exact role is unclear.

The conclusion suggests that prostate cancer should be classified by castration status and that new therapies targeting androgen receptor signaling show promise.

Testosterone affects hair follicles differently across body sites, with beard hair follicles showing more activity of a specific enzyme and presence of androgen receptors compared to scalp hair.

Antiandrogens like flutamide are effective in treating conditions like prostate cancer and hair loss, but there's a need for more potent versions. Understanding their structure can help develop better treatments.

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