This study found a weak positive correlation between dihydrotestosterone levels and C-reactive protein in COVID-19 patients, particularly in those with low testosterone, suggesting potential inflammatory effects.

In this study of male patients with 46,XY 5α-reductase type 2 deficiency, DHT therapy was effective in achieving penile enlargement during infancy, while testosterone replacement therapy proved more beneficial during puberty, possibly due to increased conversion to DHT.

In this study, researchers found that serum dihydrotestosterone levels were significantly lower in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes compared to healthy controls, with 90% of diabetics displaying subnormal levels.

This study found that steroid hormones influence the quality indicators of fresh and cryopreserved stallion sperm, with testosterone negatively correlated with motility and estradiol positively correlated with survival rate.

In this study, diode laser treatment showed greater efficacy in reducing facial hair and increasing satisfaction among hirsutism patients with normal levels of DHEAS and DHT, compared to those with deranged levels, although some benefits were observed across both groups.

This study found that applying ostrich antibodies against DHT and 5α-reductase generally promoted hair growth in 16 of 17 participants with androgenetic alopecia after about three months of treatment.

This review discusses the roles of dihydrotestosterone in fetal development and adult diseases, reporting no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the potential of 5α-reductase inhibitors for treatment.

This article discusses the complexities of diagnosing hyperandrogenism in women and reviews potential treatments, such as antiandrogens and finasteride, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that exosomes from adipose mesenchymal stromal cells, particularly those carrying miR-122-5p, may enhance hair follicle regeneration in androgenic alopecia by targeting the TGF-β/SMAD3 axis.

In this randomized trial, a solid shampoo formulated with plant extracts was more effective than placebo in improving androgenetic alopecia and reducing hair cortisol and DHT concentrations in men.

In this study, Yifa compound treatment significantly improved female pattern hair loss and reduced sera DHT and DHEA levels after six months.

This study found that testosterone and 5α-dihydrotestosterone induced apoptosis in dermal papilla cells from nonbalding scalp regions, suggesting a high androgen stimulus can trigger cell death related to androgenetic alopecia.

The study observed that testosterone reduced knee range of motion in ovariectomized female rats, potentially by downregulating specific relaxin receptor isoforms, with its effects mediated via dihydro-testosterone.

This study found that DHT treatment led to reduced cell growth, increased cell death, cell cycle arrest, ROS production, and senescence in normal human dermal papilla cells, potentially mediated by altered miRNA expression.

This study found that women with lower 2D:4D ratios and fewer middle-phalangeal hairs reported more adverse side effects from oral contraceptives, suggesting these features may predict hormonal contraceptive side effects.

This study suggests that epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) from green tea may counteract DHT-induced hair follicle damage by modifying the miRNA expression profile in human dermal papilla cells.

This study suggests that DHT may have a less potent effect on the prostate compared to testosterone while maintaining safety and similar effects on erythropoiesis and lipids.

This article discusses whether testosterone's metabolism to 5α-dihydrotestosterone is necessary for androgenic effects in the skin but reports no new experimental results.

High doses of cyclosporine A increase testosterone conversion, possibly boosting hair growth.

This study suggests that in gilthead seabream, DHT is involved in the onset of the meiotic phase of spermatogenesis and influences serum levels of E2 through regulation of aromatase activity.

This study suggests that hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhotic men is associated with altered sex-steroid metabolism, indicated by lower testosterone and 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone levels compared to cirrhosis alone.

This review discusses the antimicrobial and protective effects of hesperidin and hesperetin against various toxicities, with potential mechanisms explored, but it reports no new research findings.

In this study, researchers observed that RE-ORGA, a preparation from Korean herbs, may help alleviate androgenic alopecia by promoting human dermal papilla cell proliferation, reducing 5α-reductase enzyme levels, and displaying anti-inflammatory properties, suggesting potential regulation of androgen receptor sensitivity.

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 the comparative efficacy of dutasteride and finasteride for benign prostatic hyperplasia, reporting that while symptom improvements are similar, dutasteride may reduce prostate surgery risk and acute urinary retention more effectively.
