research Treatment of Female Androgenetic Alopecia With Cimetidine
A drug called cimetidine can help treat hair loss in women by blocking androgen receptors. However, it's not the first choice and needs more research.
research Iatrogenic Androgenetic Alopecia in a Male Phenotype 46XX True Hermaphrodite
Hormone treatment caused hair loss, finasteride helped regrowth.
research Hormones and Hair Growth: Variations in Androgen Receptor Content of Dermal Papilla Cells Cultured from Human and Red Deer Hair Follicles
Human hair growth is influenced by androgen hormones, and red deer mane follicles have similar hormone receptors.
research Study of Association of Dyslipidemia in Male Androgenetic Alopecia Patients in a Tertiary Care Hospital
Men with male pattern baldness are more likely to have unhealthy blood lipid levels, which could signal other health issues.
research Guidelines on the Use of Finasteride in Androgenetic Alopecia
Taking 1 mg of finasteride daily can increase hair count and improve hair appearance, but it may have side effects on sexual function and a potential risk of prostate cancer. It may not be effective for postmenopausal women unless taken in higher doses.
research Pre-Receptor Regulation of the Androgen Receptor
Two enzymes regulate androgen receptor activity, affecting treatments for androgen insufficiency and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Molecular Interactions of New Pregnenedione Derivatives
The new progesterone derivatives effectively inhibit 5α-reductase and bind to the androgen receptor.
research Androgens Protect Against Apolipoprotein E4-Induced Cognitive Deficits
Androgens can help prevent memory problems caused by apoE4.
research Ornithine Decarboxylase Is Upregulated by the Androgen Receptor in Skeletal Muscle and Regulates Myoblast Proliferation
Androgens increase muscle mass by promoting myoblast growth through ornithine decarboxylase.
research The Involvement of Androgens in Human Hair Growth
Androgens play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness and excessive hairiness.
research Androgens and Hair Growth
Androgens can both increase and decrease hair growth in different parts of the body.
research Novel Missense Mutation in the P-Box of Androgen Receptor in a Patient with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome
A new mutation linked to partial Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome and prostate cancer was found in a patient unhappy with their female gender assignment.
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 High-Throughput and Direct Measurement of Androgen Levels Using Turbulent Flow Chromatography Liquid Chromatography-Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry to Discover Chemicals That Modulate Dihydrotestosterone Production in Human Prostate Cancer Cells
Researchers found four natural compounds that can change DHT levels in prostate cancer cells.
research Daily Intake of Alfalfa Sprouts, But Not Broccoli Sprouts, Influences Plasma Levels of Androgen in Middle-Aged Males
Eating alfalfa sprouts every day can raise testosterone levels in middle-aged men, but broccoli sprouts don't have this effect.
research Identification of Androgen-Regulated Genes in SV40-Transformed Human Hair Dermal Papilla Cells
Hsc70 protein may influence hair growth by responding to androgens.
research Androgens and Hair: A Biological Paradox with Clinical Consequences
Androgens can both increase body hair and cause scalp hair loss.
research Clinical and Endocrine Effects of Finasteride, a 5α-Reductase Inhibitor, in Women with Idiopathic Hirsutism
Finasteride reduces hairiness and androgen levels in women with unexplained excessive hair growth.
research Preventive Effects of Monascus on Androgen-Related Diseases: Androgenetic Alopecia, Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, and Prostate Cancer
Monascus helps prevent baldness, prostate issues, and may be a natural alternative to medications.
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 Efficacy of an Oral Contraceptive Containing EE 0.03 mg and CMA 2 mg (Belara) in Moderate Acne Resolution: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Phase III Trial
The oral contraceptive with ethinyl estradiol and chlormadinone acetate is effective in treating moderate acne.

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 Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research Three-Month Treatment With a Long-Acting Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist of Patients With Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: Effects on Tissue Androgen Concentration, 5α-Reductase Activity and Androgen Receptor Content
A three-month treatment with a GnRH agonist significantly lowered androgen levels and 5α-reductase activity in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Effects of Dihydrotestosterone on Rat Dermal Papilla Cells In Vitro
