research Experimental and Early Investigational Drugs for Androgenetic Alopecia
New hair loss treatments may include topical medications, injections, and improved transplant methods.
research Prostate-Sparing Effects in Primates of the Potent Androgen 7α-Methyl-19-Nortestosterone: A Potential Alternative to Testosterone for Androgen Replacement and Male Contraception
MENT could be a better option than testosterone for male hormone therapy and birth control because it works well at lower doses and has fewer side effects on the prostate.
research Hyperactivity and Alopecia Associated with Ingestion of Valproic Acid in a Cat
A cat's hyperactivity and hair loss were caused by eating valproic acid but improved after stopping access to the drug.
research Malassezia Species Overgrowth in a Chinchilla Cat
The cat's skin condition improved with treatment, but underlying health issues must be addressed.
research Anti-Androgenic Activities of Ganoderma Lucidum
Ganoderma lucidum, a type of mushroom, may help treat enlarged prostate by blocking testosterone conversion.
research Anti-Androgenic Activities of the Triterpenoids Fraction of Ganoderma Lucidum
The triterpenoids from Ganoderma lucidum can block testosterone effects and may help treat enlarged prostate.
research Androgenic and Anti-Androgenic Effects of Progesterone Derivatives with Different Halogens as Substituents at the C-6 Position
Different halogens on progesterone derivatives can either block or mimic male hormone effects, depending on their type and amount.
research Adrenal Steroid Precursors Exert Potent Androgenic Action in the Hamster Sebaceous Glands of Flank Organs and Ears
Certain adrenal hormones can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in hamster skin, similar to male hormones.
research Probing Androgen Receptor Co-Factor Selectivity Profiles: A Chemical Tool to Determine Cross-Talk Between Androgen Receptor and Beta-Catenin In Vivo
PF-05314882 selectively activates androgen receptors without much effect on prostate and may help in prostate cancer treatment and hair loss prevention.
research Biological Activity of Novel Progesterone Derivatives Having Bulky Ester Side Chains at C-3
The more lipophilic the progesterone derivative, the better it binds to androgen receptors and has antiandrogenic effects.
research FCE 28260, A New 5α-Reductase Inhibitor: In Vitro and In Vivo Effects
FCE 28260 is a stronger and longer-lasting inhibitor of 5α-reductase than finasteride, which may make it a better treatment for certain medical conditions.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Characteristics and Perspectives
Male pattern baldness is mainly caused by a hormone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT), and drugs that can block this hormone might help prevent hair loss.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitory Potential of Hibiscus Rosa Sinensis: Effective for the Management of Alopecia
Hibiscus rosa sinensis may help manage hair loss.
research The Effect of Anti-Androgens on the Response of Rat Preputial Glands to Testosterone
New compounds can block testosterone effects in rats and might help treat conditions like prostate cancer and acne.
research Exploring Rat Corpus Cavernosum Alterations Induced by Finasteride Treatment and Withdrawal
Finasteride changes hormone levels and certain proteins in rats, but these effects can be reversed after stopping the drug.
research Non-Competitive Androgen Receptor Inhibition In Vitro And In Vivo
Two new compounds can block androgen receptor activity in different ways and may lead to new treatments for androgen-related diseases.
research Winding the Clock Back on Female Androgenetic Alopecia
Reversing female hair loss.
research Androgen Receptor Mutations and Polymorphisms in African American Prostate Cancer
African American men with prostate cancer have more androgen receptor mutations, which may lead to more aggressive cancer compared to Caucasian American men.
research Prolongation of Off-Cycle Interval by Finasteride Is Not Associated with Survival Improvement in Intermittent Androgen Deprivation Therapy in LNCaP Tumor Model
Finasteride doesn't improve survival in LNCaP tumor model during off-cycle of therapy.
research Hair Deformities: Treatment Through Hair Restoration Surgery
Hair restoration surgery techniques can effectively treat scalp deformities and have evolved to provide natural-looking results.
research Redefining Hormone Resistance in Prostate Cancer
The conclusion suggests that prostate cancer should be classified by castration status and that new therapies targeting androgen receptor signaling show promise.
research Antiandrogenic Activities of Glycyrrhiza Glabra in Male Rats
Liquorice may reduce testosterone and affect male reproductive organs, potentially helping treat conditions like prostate cancer.
research Synthesis and Structure–Activity Investigation of Iodinated Arylhydantoins and Arylthiohydantoins for Development as Androgen Receptor Radioligands
Scientists created iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins that could potentially be used for imaging prostate cancer. Some versions with specific side-chains showed high potential for this use.
research A Case Report of the Association Between Canine Hypothyroidism and Diabetes
Canine hypothyroidism can be linked to diabetes, requiring thorough testing for proper diagnosis.
research Recent Advances in Oxasteroids Chemistry
New methods to make oxasteroids show promise for medical treatments like osteoporosis and breast cancer.
research Slow Progress in Prostate Cancer
Finasteride reduces prostate cancer risk but may increase high-grade tumors; new drugs and better diagnosis are in development, but funding and industry commitment are challenges.
