This study found that mental rotation and neuroticism demonstrated curvilinear relationships with hair loss, suggesting that dihydrotestosterone levels might affect spatial cognition and personality traits in men.

This study found that scalp hair from individuals with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus had significantly different contents of zinc, copper, lead, cadmium, and aluminum compared to controls.

This letter to the editor references a study on using dihydrotestosterone gel before hypospadias surgery but itself contains no new findings.

This source describes alopecia as a hair loss condition often driven by genetic and androgenic factors, with lifestyle elements like chemical treatments exacerbating the issue; Ayurvedic texts caution against scalp toxins and suggest traditional formulations for support.

Blocking a protein called prostaglandin D2 might help treat hair loss.

3-tetrazolo steroidal analogs can strongly inhibit the enzyme linked to hair loss.

Skin hormone levels change significantly after menopause.

This study synthesized a temperature-sensitive hydrogel with strong antibacterial capabilities against S. aureus and E. coli, demonstrated via in vitro and in vivo tests, suggesting potential for antibiotic-free clinical applications when activated by near-infrared light.

This study observed that testosterone concentrations in hair segments show some stability over time, but are influenced by factors like sebum integration, hair washing frequency, and individual hair growth rates.

This study identified LY191704 as a specific noncompetitive inhibitor of human 5 alpha-reductase type 1, which may be useful in treating endocrine disorders related to DHT overproduction.

This study found that mild skin injuries in rats, especially those dosed with dihydrotachysterol, lead to mineral deposits in hair follicle tissue within 6-12 hours, as confirmed by chemical and X-ray diffraction analyses.

This article reviews the role of 5α-reductase in cutaneous hyperandrogenism and the potential of 5α-reductase inhibitors and antiandrogens in treating conditions like hirsutism and male-pattern baldness, reporting no clinical results.

This study found that hCG decreased 5α-reductase and androgen receptor levels in skin samples from women in vitro, suggesting that human skin responds to LH/hCG treatment.

This study suggests that in human osteoblast-like cells, the 5alpha-reductase type 1 isozyme predominantly catalyzes the conversion of testosterone to DHT, which may play a role in bone homeostasis.

This review examines the physiological, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms by which DHEA and DHEA-S influence various bodily systems, citing rodent studies, but presents no new clinical results.

This study found that the combination of ethinylestradiol and desogestrel significantly decreased hair growth and hormone levels in hirsute women, suggesting a relationship between hormone changes and treatment effectiveness.

This study reports the first case of ovarian mature cystic teratoma linked to clinical virilization due to ectopic testosterone production, possibly from overexpression of the enzyme HSD17B5.

This research suggests that the vitamin D receptor may regulate hair follicle cycling and provide genoprotection against skin carcinogenesis through a mechanism independent of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, based on evidence from mouse models.

This study introduced a viscoelastic dry electrode that successfully reduces motion artifacts in EP monitoring on hairy skin, maintaining stable performance for up to 48 days.

This study reports that thermography and high-frequency ultrasound show promise as diagnostic tools for personalizing treatment plans in atopic dermatitis and psoriasis vulgaris by assessing skin lesion characteristics.

This study introduces the Hair Cell Analysis Toolbox (HCAT), a machine-learning software that automates the analysis of cochlear hair cells, enabling unbiased and comprehensive imaging data interpretation.

This study identified pathogenic or likely pathogenic gene variants in 70.1% of Russian families affected by hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, expanding knowledge of causative mutations.

This study demonstrates that DHT-induced lipid synthesis in sebocytes involves the mTOR pathway, suggesting mTOR inhibitors may help modulate androgen-dependent sebum overproduction.

This study found that obese Egyptian women with polycystic ovary syndrome had significantly lower serum 25-OH vitamin D levels compared to non-obese women with the condition.

This study developed a prototype device that suggests potential for diagnosing changes in hair quantity, diameter, and density, though formal clinical studies are needed to confirm these findings.

In this study, mutations in the vitamin D receptor were identified in Brazilian children with rickets and alopecia, leading to impaired receptor activation and reduced 24-hydroxylase expression.

This study found that hair samples effectively captured average estradiol levels over time in both humans and monkeys, using a validated double-extraction protocol.

This study found that among older men, low levels of free dihydrotestosterone were associated with an increased risk of developing atrial fibrillation.
