research Testicular Steroidogenesis: Production and Regulation of Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone
Genetic defects in testosterone production can cause hormonal and developmental disorders, and more research is needed to understand androgen regulation and develop safer treatments.
research Regulation of Androgen Receptor and 5α-Reductase in the Skin of Normal and Hirsute Women
The exact cause of increased 5α-reductase activity leading to hirsutism in women is still unknown.
research Basics of Androgen Synthesis and Action
Androgens like testosterone are important hormones for both men and women, made differently in each sex and affecting the body by regulating genes and quick interactions with cell components.
research Body Composition Changes and Inhibition of Fat Development In Vivo Implicate Androgen in Regulation of Stem Cell Lineage Allocation
Androgen is important in controlling stem cell differentiation, reducing fat development, and increasing lean mass.
research Managing Cutaneous Manifestations of Hyperandrogenic Disorders
Birth control pills help treat skin and hair growth problems linked to high male hormone levels.

Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Platelet Factor 4 Inhibits Human Hair Follicle Growth and Promotes Androgen Receptor Expression in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Platelet factor 4 slows down hair growth and could make hair loss treatments more effective if removed.
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 The Evaluation and Management of Hirsutism
Most women with excess hair growth have an underlying hormonal issue, often treated with medication and hair removal methods.
research The Evaluation and Management of Hirsutism
Hirsutism in women often indicates a hormonal imbalance and can be managed with a combination of hormonal treatments and hair removal methods.
research Regulation and Dysregulation of Hair Regeneration: Aiming for Clinical Application
Understanding hair growth involves complex factors, and more research is needed to improve treatments for hair loss conditions.
research Testosterone: The Male Sex Hormone
More research is needed to understand how testosterone is maintained in adult males.
research Nonclassic Adrenal Hyperplasia: Clinical Features, Diagnosis, and Treatment
Nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia is a genetic condition that can cause early puberty and fertility problems, treated with specific steroids.
research Androgen Receptor Modulators: A Review of Recent Patents and Reports (2012-2018)
New androgen receptor modulators show promise for treating diseases like prostate cancer and muscle wasting.
research Inhibition of the Androgen Receptor by Antisense Oligonucleotides Regulates the Biological Activity of Androgens in SZ95 Sebocytes
Blocking the androgen receptor in skin cells reduces their growth response to male hormones, suggesting a possible treatment for skin conditions linked to androgens.
research Analysis of Androgen Receptor Expression and Activity in the Mouse Brain
Androgen receptors in the mouse brain may explain cognitive and mood changes in prostate cancer treatment.
research Non-Polycystic Ovary Syndrome–Related Endocrine Disorders Associated with Hirsutism
Hirsutism can be caused by various conditions besides PCOS, and it's important to treat the underlying issue and manage symptoms with medication and cosmetic approaches.
research Oxidative Stress Management in the Hair Follicle: Could Targeting NRF2 Counter Age-Related Hair Disorders and Beyond?
Activating NRF2 might help treat hair disorders by improving antioxidant defenses.
research The Androgen Receptor Gene Polyglycine Repeat Polymorphism Is Associated With Memory Performance In Healthy Chinese Individuals
Certain gene variations are linked to better memory in healthy Chinese women.
research Skin Disorders in Diabetes Mellitus
Diabetes can cause a variety of skin disorders, some of which may signal more serious health issues.
research Dermal Papilla Regulation of Hair Growth and Pigmentation
Dermal papilla cells are key for hair growth and color, influencing hair type and size, and their interaction with stem cells could help treat hair loss and color disorders.
research The Role of Nuclear Hormone Receptors in Cutaneous Wound Repair
Nuclear hormone receptors play a significant role in skin wound healing and could lead to better treatment methods.
research From Gene to Therapy in Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy: Are We There Yet?
Effective treatments for spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy are not yet available; more research is needed.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
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.
research Is Dehydroepiandrosterone a Hormone?
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.
research Gender Differences in Skin: A Review of the Literature
Male and female skin differ due to hormones, affecting conditions like hair loss, acne, and skin cancer, and suggesting a need for gender-specific treatments.
research Regulatory Roles of Androgens in Cutaneous Wound Healing
