This study reported that prenatal exposure to dihydrotestosterone altered long-term androgen metabolism in juvenile male rats, suggesting different regulatory mechanisms for 5a-reductase in hypothalamic versus pituitary tissues.

This review discusses emerging concepts in PCOS from the AEPCOS 2010 meeting and reports no clinical findings; it suggests that the transition of care in congenital adrenal hyperplasia could inform PCOS adolescent care.

In this study, no association was found between the AR gene and type II androgenetic alopecia in Egyptian women, suggesting it is not a useful biomarker for predisposition.

This study found that testosterone and dihydrotestosterone are crucial for synaptic transmission and spine density in male hippocampal neurons, suggesting sex-specific effects of neurosteroids on brain development.

This review discusses treatment options for androgenetic alopecia in men and women, highlighting minoxidil and finasteride, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study developed a method using HPLC with UV-DAD and ESI-MS detection to identify prohibited substances like minoxidil and hormones in cosmetic products advertised online for hair loss and skin conditions.

This review discusses the role of the androgen receptor in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment, and notes a lack of new research results on its therapeutic potential.

This study found that among Caucasian individuals with androgenetic alopecia, being overweight and smoking were associated with greater severity of the condition.

This study found that adjuvant docetaxel treatment for breast cancer at cumulative doses of 400 mg/m² or higher is associated with a 10% prevalence of persistent alopecia leading to wig use, but this was completely prevented with scalp cooling.

This study found significant differences in bcl-2 expression between areas of the scalp affected and unaffected by androgenetic alopecia, suggesting a uniform follicle population or synchronized follicular cycling in affected areas.

This study found that sex differences in somatostatin biosynthesis in rat hypothalamic neurons develop between postnatal day 1 and 5, influenced by the conversion of testosterone to estrogen.

This chapter reviews various antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors, detailing their mechanisms, uses, and side effects, with a focus on spironolactone, finasteride, dutasteride, and oral contraceptives.

This study found that dihydrotestosterone (DHT) regulates the degradation of p27 in MCF-7 breast cancer and OVCAR-3 ovarian cancer cells, involving SKP2 as a key factor.

This study suggests that alterations in copper metabolism may play a key role in the development of androgenetic alopecia in women, presenting potential targets for treatment strategies.

This review discusses various factors influencing hair growth, including alopecia and hirsutism, and highlights recent advancements in treatment approaches without reporting new clinical results.

This review discusses the clinical features, genetics, and treatment of 21-hydroxylase deficiency, a common type of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and reports no new research findings.

This study found that an alcoholic extract of Glycyrrhiza glabra significantly reduced prostate weight and serum testosterone in castrated rats given testosterone, indicating potential antiandrogenic properties.

This study found that combining drug therapy with hair grafts can regress male androgenetic alopecia from Hamilton type V to type III.

This study describes a case where finasteride treatment for benign prostatic hypertrophy was associated with gynecomastia in a 62-year-old man, which resolved after the drug was discontinued.

This study found that finasteride significantly reduced dihydrotestosterone levels but did not provide clear evidence of impaired libido or erectile function compared to placebo in men.

This study found that male and female chicken feather morphology and color patterns can be extrinsically modified through molting and resetting the stem cell niche during regeneration.

This study observed that direct exposure to androgens in Western clawed frogs differentially affects thyroid receptor and deiodinase gene expression in male and female tissues, offering insight into sex-specific metabolic pathway activation.

In this study, non-obese females with early-onset androgenetic alopecia showed higher total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and atherogenic index, and lower HDL cholesterol compared to controls, suggesting an association with adverse cardiovascular risk factors.

This article reviews assessment and management strategies for adolescent females with excessive hair growth and highlights the importance of evaluating potential androgen sources.

This study suggests that inhibitors of steroidogenic enzymes may have therapeutic potential for certain behavioral disorders linked to dopaminergic hyperfunction, despite concerns about their endocrine impacts.

This study found that brain-derived nerve factor protein expression was significantly increased in balding scalp samples from men with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting it may play a role in hair follicle regulation.

In this study, the researchers reported that finasteride's efficacy in treating female pattern hair loss in Japanese patients was not predictable based on CAG repeat numbers in the androgen receptor gene.

This article reviews the limited evidence on testosterone therapy for premenopausal women and notes a lack of long-term safety and effectiveness data for this population.

In this report, five female patients undergoing hormonal anticancer therapy for breast cancer prevention developed pattern alopecia, which the authors attribute to androgen-estrogen imbalance caused by antiestrogenic drugs.

This review discusses androgen deficiency syndrome in women, its symptoms, and how androgen replacement therapy generally alleviates related issues without significant side-effects, but reports no new clinical findings.
