research Androgen Conjugates: Physiology and Clinical Significance
Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.
research Clinical Biochemistry of Dihydrotestosterone
Understanding how DHT works is important for diagnosing and treating hormone-related disorders.
research Is Dihydrotestosterone a Classic Hormone?
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) mainly affects nearby cells, doesn't significantly change prostate hormonal environment or cancer risk, and doesn't play a main role in causing hair loss or acne. More research is needed on its effects on heart health, sexual function, and bone health.
research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases
The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.
research Genetic Variations Associated With Response to Dutasteride in the Treatment of Male Subjects With Androgenetic Alopecia
Genetic variations affect dutasteride treatment response for male pattern hair loss.
research Phytochemicals as Emerging Therapeutic Agents for Alopecia Treatment
Plant-based chemicals may help hair growth and prevent hair loss but need more research to compete with current treatments.
research Intracrine Androgen Biosynthesis, Metabolism, and Action Revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
research Sex Hormones and Acne: The Role of the Skin as an Endocrine Organ
Sex hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in causing acne.
research Steroidogenesis Inhibitors Alter But Do Not Eliminate Androgen Synthesis Mechanisms During Progression to Castration-Resistance in LNCaP Prostate Xenografts
Steroidogenesis inhibitors change but don't stop androgen production in prostate cancer.
research Development of Prostate Cancer in a Patient with Primary Hypogonadism: Intratumoral Steroidogenesis in Prostate Cancer Tissues
Prostate cancer can progress even with low testosterone due to internal hormone production in the tumor.
research An Updated Etiology of Hair Loss and the New Cosmeceutical Paradigm in Therapy: Clearing the Big Eight Strikes
New treatments for hair loss should target eight main causes and use specific plant compounds and peptides for better results.
research Targeting of CXXC5 by a Competing Peptide Stimulates Hair Regrowth and Wound-Induced Hair Neogenesis
Blocking a protein called CXXC5 with a specific peptide can stimulate hair regrowth and new hair growth in wounds.
research The Skin as an Endocrine Organ
The skin produces and processes hormones, affecting both local and overall body functions.
research Negative Impact of Testosterone Deficiency and 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Therapy on Metabolic and Sexual Function in Men
Low testosterone and 5α-reductase inhibitors can harm men's metabolic and sexual health; testosterone therapy may help, but discussing 5α-RIs' side effects is important.
research 5α-Reductase Isozymes and Aromatase mRNA Levels in Plucked Hair from Young Women with Female Pattern Hair Loss
Higher enzyme levels found in women with hair loss, suggesting hormone imbalance.
research Effects of Short-Term Finasteride on Apoptotic Factors and Androgen Receptors in Prostate Cancer Cells
Short-term finasteride treatment may lower some cell death factors in prostate cancer cells.
research Establishment and Characterization of Five Immortalized Human Scalp Dermal Papilla Cell Lines
Researchers created five new human scalp cell lines that could be useful for hair growth and loss research.
research Topical Solutions for Androgenetic Alopecia: Evaluating Efficacy and Safety
Topical treatments for hair loss can be effective but need careful safety evaluation.
research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: Current Insights in Pathophysiology, Diagnostics, and Management

A new method accurately measures nine specific hormones in human blood.
research The Role of Non-Aromatizable Testosterone Metabolite in Metabolic Pathways
Normal levels of DHT can reduce belly fat and increase muscle, but too much can lead to hair loss, prostate issues, and possibly heart disease.
research Ar/miR-221/IGF-1 Pathway Mediates the Pathogenesis of Androgenetic Alopecia
The Ar/miR-221/IGF-1 pathway is involved in male pattern baldness, with miR-221 potentially being a new target for treatment.
