Clofazimine may be effective for treating ashy dermatosis.

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.

This research describes the synthesis of 16β-chloro- and 16β-bromo-cyproterone acetate, detailing the chemical processes involved, but reports no clinical outcomes.

This study characterized the CYP154C7 enzyme from *Streptomyces* sp. PAMC26508, highlighting its ability to hydroxylate steroids efficiently, particularly androstenedione, and identified key amino acids important for substrate selectivity and catalytic efficiency.

This presentation highlighted future directions in acne care, emphasizing the roles of topical and oral antibiotics, as well as skin microbiome studies. It also described how clascoterone targets androgen receptors in hair follicles and sebaceous glands to reduce sebum production.

This study developed and validated an HPLC-UV method for accurately quantifying clobetasol propionate in skin and hair follicles, demonstrating its application in in vitro permeation experiments.

This article discusses the various roles of steroids in vertebrate organ systems and notes several glucocorticoids that were among the Top 200 Drugs by sales in the 2010s, but it reports no new clinical findings.

In this case study, clomiphene citrate therapy restored hormonal balance and improved symptoms in a young male runner with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism related to endurance exercise.

This source offers an in-depth review of Methandrostenolone, examining its pharmacology, performance-enhancing effects, potential health risks, and legal status in various countries, while emphasizing the scientific evidence surrounding its use and misuse.

This study reports a case of an ovarian steroid cell tumor with malignant potential, presenting unusually with osteopenia and low weight instead of the expected virilizing symptoms.

The researchers reported that compounds 11 to 13 derived from Westphalen-type steroids showed strong antiandrogenic activity in vivo, though their effects could not be attributed to 5α-reductase inhibition or androgen receptor binding.

This review summarizes the use of chlormadinone acetate for hormone replacement therapy and contraception, highlighting its anti-androgenic effects, contraceptive efficacy, and clinical tolerability, without offering new clinical results.

This study highlights that anabolic steroid use is prevalent among bodybuilders in Sergipe, regardless of socioeconomic background, with many experiencing acute and chronic side effects.

This study reports that 2-(1-Adamantyl)-4H-thiochromen-4-on-6-O-sulfamate is the most potent steroid sulfatase inhibitor identified so far, exhibiting 170-fold higher activity than the lead compound estrone sulfamate.

This study observed that the size of vaginal prolapse in patients was significantly related to both the preoperative vaginal length and the length of vaginal excision during the Michigan four-wall sacrospinous suspension procedure.

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.

This case report highlights a Palestinian woman with a rare ovarian steroid cell tumor, underscoring the diagnostic challenges and potential for disease progression despite treatment attempts with various chemotherapy regimens.

This review discusses recent data on the use of anabolic-androgenic steroids and other steroid compounds and reports no new clinical results.

This case study potentially links the use of anabolic steroids to increased severity of COVID-19 in a healthy 28-year-old man, with marked symptom improvement following treatment with proxalutamide.

In this study, patients with varying severities of acne, seborrhoea, and hirsutism responded differently to Cyproteronacetate and Ethinyloestradiol treatment, with improvement rates dependent on symptom severity and treatment duration.

This study in Jordan found that topical corticosteroid use is common and often involves creams obtained without prescriptions, with only 61.3% of users aware of potential side effects, highlighting a need for better public education and regulation to prevent misuse.

This study found that pregnane derivatives with higher lipophilicity, like compound 9d, had stronger androgen receptor binding and greater antiandrogenic effects in rats, correlating relative binding affinity with log P values.

This study found that compound 2g inhibits steroid sulfatase effectively without exhibiting estrogenic activity, making it a promising candidate for breast cancer treatment.

This study in female beagle dogs found that long-term exposure to oral contraceptive steroids resulted in significant reproductive and mammary gland changes, with the relevance to human tumor risk remaining uncertain.

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.

This study reported that clascoterone cream reduced inflammatory and noninflammatory acne lesions in a trial with 1440 white males and non-pregnant females, showing it was well tolerated in these participants.

In this study, prolonged high-dose steroid treatment in rats caused several pathological changes, some of which regressed, particularly improvements in mammary gland tumors and pituitary-related symptoms, after stopping treatment.

The document concludes that scientists created various steroids with different properties, including a more effective semi-synthetic vitamin D.
