This study found that cortisol increases mac25/IGFBP-rP1 expression in osteoblast-enriched cells from fetal rat calvariae, indicating transcriptional regulation which may influence IGF and insulin effects in bone.

This study found that megestrol acetate increases the proliferation, migration, and adipogenic differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells through glucocorticoid receptor phosphorylation.

This study found that US adults with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia most preferred a hypothetical adjunctive therapy that prevents glucocorticoid-induced weight gain over other potential benefits.

This study found that both Clomiphene Citrate and Human Chorionic Gonadotropin were effective in restoring testosterone levels in men with hypogonadism, as demonstrated in a short-course randomized study.

This study describes the effects of adrenocorticotropic hormone injections in rats, specifically detailing their stunted body growth and changes in visceral proportions and hematology.

In this study, clobetasol propionate foam demonstrated effectiveness and good patient compliance as a safe topical treatment for moderate to severe alopecia areata, with significant hair regrowth compared to placebo.

This historical observation found that parathyroid extract treatment in newborn rats led to a condition resembling scleroderma, characterized by skin hardening, calcium deposition, and possible necrosis.

This case study reports a patient with ACTH-driven cortisol secretion 14 years after adrenalectomy, suggesting possible residual adrenal tissue or extra-adrenal steroid synthesis, challenging the need for lifelong steroid replacement.

The researchers reported a case of falsely elevated testosterone in a teen, due to immunoassay interference, demonstrating that liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry provides more accurate testosterone measurement, emphasizing the need for thorough analysis when clinical results are inconsistent.

This study suggests that the elevated stress hormone response in adolescent male rats may involve increased conversion of testosterone to estradiol at the adrenal cortex level.

This study found that hair cortisol levels in black-tailed prairie dogs, influenced by factors like predation risk and lactation, were associated with reproductive success, supporting the Cort-Adaptation hypothesis.

In this study, researchers observed that TCDD exposure in mice enhanced sebaceous gland differentiation and lipid production before causing seboatrophy, providing insights into the cellular events that may contribute to chloracne pathogenesis.

In this case study, medical management with trilostane improved clinical signs and normalized serum chemistry in a dog diagnosed with adrenal-dependent hyperadrenocorticism over 80 weeks of treatment.

This study found that bulge keratinocytes in mice develop resistance to glucocorticoid treatment more slowly than interfollicular keratinocytes and do not significantly aid in repairing glucocorticoid-induced skin atrophy within five days.

In this study, anabolic and catatoxic steroids were reported to prevent weight loss, tissue calcification, and cardiac necrosis in a rat model of disturbed calcium metabolism and progeria-like syndrome.

This study found that topical clobetasol propionate cream was more effective than hydrocortisone cream in reducing hair loss surface area in children with patchy alopecia areata over 24 weeks, with no serious adverse effects.

In this study, transgenic mice altered to express a Clim-inhibiting molecule under a keratin promoter showed corneal degradation and hair follicle failure, highlighting Clim proteins' role in maintaining these tissues.

This research suggests that fluoxymesterone, an anabolic steroid, may inhibit a key enzyme, potentially contributing to cardiovascular issues by affecting cortisol's activation of mineralocorticoid receptors.

In this study, researchers found that the pCLCA2 protein is expressed in specific areas of pig skin, but its role in skin structure or function remains unclear.

This study found that cortexolone 17α-propionate showed strong topical antiandrogenic activity, outperforming progesterone and several known antiandrogens, but lacked systemic antiandrogenic effects in animal models.

This case study describes an extremely rare instance of androgen-secreting adrenocortical carcinoma in a patient with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This study found that 1′S-1′-acetoxychavicol acetate from Alpinia galanga inhibits Nox isozymes and suppresses testosterone-induced hair loss in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, a case of lichen amyloidosis on the scalp significantly improved with a 2-month topical treatment using clobetasol propionate/all-trans retinoic acid ointment.

In this case report, an embryonal cell carcinoma of the testicle was associated with polycythemia and markedly elevated hormone levels without secondary sexual characteristics, which were restored after treatment.

This case report describes a 37-year-old female with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia who presented with severe acne, progressive hair loss, and primary infertility, managed with prednisolone.

This study found that sex hormones, specifically non-aromatizable androgens like DHT and A/T, significantly increase inflammatory cytokine expression in human adipocytes when stimulated by LPS.

This study found that serum steroid profiling, particularly 11-deoxycortisol, can effectively differentiate between ACC and ACA, while considering sex differences and functional status for other steroids is important.

This study found that combined treatment with anastrozole and cyproterone acetate improved the adult height prognosis in testotoxicosis, as observed in two brothers, with good tolerance reported.
